Our own mortality.

Seems like you’ve combined two ideas for no reason.

I can agree with “focus on one thing, miss the rest” but I don’t think it’s inherently human. If one of my cats has found something to stalk, they become hyper focused and pretty much oblivious to anything else happening around them. Other animals’ ears will perk up as they try to find the source of a sound and determine if it is predator or prey.

We’re certainly smarter than other animals, but is it really because of focus or just more mental ability?

It might not really be in the spirit of the post, but it’s because of the brain. They take a lot of power to fuel, so to keep that big brain running, we have to skimp on things like mobility. Babies can be pretty dumb, but, they’ve been learning a LOT. They just can’t tell you about it yet, but they will soon, because unlike the pig, they are listening and they are learning.

They say it’s the opposable thumb that sets us apart, but no, it’s the butt cheeks.

People don’t randomly assign you to a stereotype. They based it off of your appearance and actions.

If you want to be seen as someone else, you need to act like that instead.

Maybe try the Nintendo Power Glove?

I’ve learned that I am really bad at this game.

Thanks for sharing!

I’m sure MINE would be shocked. He’s one of the good ones.

I hope everyone hears the sarcasm.

Coming this summer: Rob Schneider is the 6th Element!!

Nice try, Hollywood!

It’s been a while since I’ve downloaded much media, but this certainly would have made organizing it much easier. I don’t really have an answer for your question, but I appreciate you trying to share something you found helpful.

There’s a convicted felon in the White House right now.

Starting a business and hanging a sign outside your location is a form of advertising, but I would say it’s more useful than predatory.

This question leads me to another one: Where is the line between informative and predatory?

If I truly need something and I don’t know it exists and is available, then some advertising would be beneficial to my life, but we’ve all seen what that turned into and what a trainwreck modern advertising has become.

Is there a “good” amount of advertisement, and how could one prevent that from becoming the cesspool we have today?

I like working from home, but mostly because I don’t really do much work.

Here I am, broke and knowledgeable. Worst of both worlds.

You can’t pull off a sweet uppercut by punching down.

A closeted gay acquaintance that I knew from shared extracurricular activities, is now a judge who ran as a Republican because that’s the only party people will vote for in the redneck town we grew up in.

I hate that. So much so, that when I do get a chance to see my friends I haven’t seen in a while, I always try to remember what I wore last time and avoid it.

Transfers, yes, but if you’re careful, those germs on your hands will never get to your face, but a kiss is direct infection.
