Just a good old boy, never meaning no harm. And if this be not enough to keep a man alive, then in good faith, I long not to live

My friend sent me this great problem: A random card is drawn from a deck, which you will try to guess. But first, you can ask 1 yes/no question. Is it better to ask if the card is red or if the card is the ace of spades?

These videos seem to be really popular but they are puzzling. The protagonist guy who is “not rich” is just a lame weakling who doesn’t know how to swim and is tired all the time

I feel like there is something here that I don’t understand about perfidious Albion but I’m not sure what

the "Hard Problem" in a nutshell: 1. atoms aren't conscious 2. humans are made of atoms 3. humans are conscious 4. so at least one of 1-3 must be false Panpsychists say #1 is false Dualists say #2 is false Illusionists say #3 is false Materialists say #4 is false

Startup idea: Rh Factor Authentication. A wristband periodically stabs you and does blood tests to validate your identity so you can avoid constantly doing 2FA prompts

The concept of Catamites implies the existence of opposite polarity Anamites and suggests they may react when connected through a semi-permeable membrane

You may have heard that St. Patrick drove all the snakes out of Ireland, but this is likely legendary. He lived in the 5th century, long before the invention of cars.

My dad was a corrections officer who cannot be baited. He just says “it sounds like you feel pretty strongly about this.”

I wish there was a pithy phrase that meant "I hear that you think this. I neither agree nor disagree. This is your thought, and I really have nothing to do with it."

January 1st in 1953, at the age of 29, Hank Williams took his final ride going through the Heart of Appalachia. He performed, what would be his final show, at the Elite Cafe in Montgomery on December 28th. He was supposed to play a show in Charleston, WV but canceled due to the weather. Williams paid a college student named Charles Carr to drive him, and they set sail for Canton, Ohio. They made a stop in Knoxville to get a room, and to see a doctor for the ailing Williams. The doctor gave Williams two B12 shots with morphine, before getting a call that night telling them they had to continue on and make the New Years Day show in Canton. They stopped in Bristol for a quick bite, where Williams declined to eat, and that is where he spoke his last words. There’s a local legend in Tazewell County, VA that Hank may have taken his last breath there. They stopped at a service station in Claypool Hill, VA off Route 19/460, and Hank was asleep in the back of the vehicle, but alive. About two hours into West Virginia they stopped in Oak Hill at the Skyline Drive-in (known as “Hanks last stop” to locals, and still open), where they found him dead. Did he take his last breath in Tazewell County, VA? Who knows?

a condition of immigration to ANY country should be that you become the biggest caricature of that country's people you can be
The reverse of a Swede going to Japan and naming himself “Tatsumasa Murasame” would be a Japanese man going to the U.S. and naming himself “Chad Steel” or “Brandon McFreedom”, btw.
