MAJONNÄS!

This kind of dumb, horny shit is my level of humour. Where can I find more? There used to be loads on Imgur until they blocked the UK.

I’m not saying that isn’t awful… Just it’s also funny

EpicMealTime paled in comparison to regular ordinary Swedish mealtime!

But there was a belief that demonstrating that education did correspond to intelligence! I’m not saying it’s accurate!

Creepin

I thought this attitude that the “classics” were what made you intelligent and worthy went out of fashion some time in the 50s… guess it still has its holdouts

This one I’ve not seen. It seems fairly ok at not going completely batshit like that. But the design, layout and comments tend to be awful. It’s pretty good at solving isolated tasks though.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Why would you pay like $300 or whatever for the glasses, $100 more for this mod, instead of doing what I said and buying a device designed for the job?

You didn’t actually disagree with anything I said, so I’m wondering what your point is.

Makes me feel better that someone who knows what she looked like could make the same mistake!

People think that if Cloudflare caved and started removing content, it’d be the right wing stuff and not the LGBT stuff, which seems preeetty naive.

the caption in the original post? It has nothing to do with the film, it’s just using the expressions of the two people for comic effect :)

The trailer for the film the meme is a screencap from, You can See Everything.

For the difference between major and minor keys, that’s true, and my comment didn’t emphasise the distinction because of the context of the parent.

But within major keys or minor keys, I don’t think this is true for most people. Most people do not have absolute (aka “perfect”) pitch, so if you play them a piece of unfamiliar music in a particular key, allow them enough time to forget the pitch at which it was played, then play it again transposed up a semitone, they won’t actually be able to tell it’s played at a higher pitch. The brain hears the relation between pitches, not the absolute pitches, and the relations are all the same.

There are certain exceptions: string instruments sound slightly different when playing the notes of one of the open strings as those strings vibrate sympathetically. Instrument bodies don’t respond exactly the same to two adjacent pitches, so it’s not just the pitch that changes; so does the timbre. But these are subtle effects, especially on an instrument like a piano, and they can disappear entirely on electric or digital instruments leaving only the pitches as the variation.

And there are certain limits: if I play you a piece you know very well, you’ll have an expectation as to the pitch you hear it at and will be able to tell more accurately when it is played differently. If I play it to you very soon after you’ve just heard it, it will be the same. And even if neither applies, if I play it transposed up an octave, you’d have to be tone deaf to not hear the difference.

I enjoy it :3

Look, I understand and share your cynicism about the US military given all it has done. I don’t think, though, that it’s too much to ask that people understand that there can be different, positive attributes shown by its members.

I didn’t when I saw the trailer.

Not just American (I’m not American).

Dead ringer isn’t really slang, it’s just an idiom. I’m curious what variety of English you speak?
