I recently met a guy who didn't realise that you can put paper in the toilet bowl before pooping to avoid having your butt splashed until the age of 23.

This practice actually goes all the way back to (at least) the Roman Republic, where the carts full of produce and other goods were normally only allowed within the city itself at night.

It also meant you really wanted to get home before the sun went down to avoid getting run over by someone's grain shipment.

I had never heard of Mr. Bungle myself, but I'm always open to new bands. What's a good song of theirs

Sort of relevant to this thread: a friend of mine in college was really into Mr. Bungle and had somehow never even heard of Faith No More until I brought them up, even though FNM had far more commercial success.

It's probably just a result of modern music consumption. We weren't alive when Epic was a hit and I could see how someone would find Mr. Bungle in the late 2000s by just looking for weird music on the internet. He's a big System of a Down fan and people throw Mr. Bungle comparisons at them a lot.

To be fair there's so many bug species in existence that we don't even have an educated guess as to the number. You can probably make an entire biology career just studying bugs in a single county.

I think it was just an arbitrary post they could grab. My guess is the thread with the offending post had already been gassed and once a thread is gassed you can no longer cause a ban from one of those posts, because Radium.

Meghan Trainor is not, in fact, "all about that bass, no trouble".

I thought it was "no trouble" like an augmented "no worries". Like, "don't even worry about it, it's no trouble at all". I thought it was new cool way of saying "I'm all about that bass, so much so that I don't even remotely give a gently caress".

No, there is no discussion of tiddies anywhere in the text. It is about having a big booty, though, and being happy with it.

If someone can figure out the infernal hellsite that is TikTok and download or re-host this it would be great, until then here's some further evidence in a static link.

It's not about shipping, it's that their website is designed from the ground up to stick your computer with hundreds of tracking and advertising cookies, and they can't be bothered (or aren't able) to change it to not default to tracking their visitors all over the web and selling their info to obscure multi-million-dollar marketing companies. So it's easier to just block visitors from Europe altogether.

Presumably there's also a slight hope that if they make life hard for Europeans and blame it on "those Brussels bureaucrats and their regulations" rather than their own naked greed, the people of Europe might be inclined to try and get the GDPR weakened or revoked so they can carry on as they have been without worrying about it spreading to the states.

Isn't it really easy to get hit with those in Europe? I'm probably wrong and misunderstood but didn't Microsoft get hit with it for only including their supported web browser in the windows install?

How old were you when you figured out that the reason they don't want pregnant women in their third trimester to go on planes isn't that there are specific health risks, but that they don't want to have to deal with it in case they go into labor?

Because I'm in my early 40s and I was today old.

In addition to the question of a child's citizenship, there is also a question of how to report "Place of Birth" for children born in transit. US State Department guidance instructs that a child born in international waters should have their place of birth listed as "AT SEA", while those born in the territorial waters of any country would list the name of that country. A child born in flight in a region where no country claims sovereignty would list their place of birth as "IN THE AIR".

Ever heard of Milford Sound in New Zealand? It's not a sound, it's a fjord. Sounds are formed from rivers and are V shaped while fjords are U shaped. But the dude who named it didn't know the geologic history of the island and just assumed it was a sound because there's no ice there now.

That's your bonus geography lesson of the day thanks for reading
