An airport is an air-port. A port via the air.
Not actually a shower thought, saw an old document that labeled it air-port. I don’t think I would have ever made the connection....
Wouldn't it be funny if there ended up being a plastic-based life form and they wondered how they came to be...
…and they COULD NOT think of a natural process that could produce plastics in the environment in the amounts required to produce life?...
Using a notification badge to make me look at an ad should be a felony
Every star in the sky is interacting with you through gravity 🌌 We are all connected to the universe around us.
Gravitational force is never truly zero. If it has mass, it is pulling at you, though it may be so close to zero that you don’t realize it.
Why shouldn't electric plugs screw in?
I just watched a TikTok about how people used to plug in things to their light sockets when electricity was first becoming popular. And they kept calling the plug a light socket, what rule says it’s not a plug that screws in? And why shouldn’t plugs screw in? We have material science to make plugs and cables hard enough that...
Amazon should've made Prime Day fall on a date corresponding to an actual three-digit prime number.
Amazon is running a Prime Day sale on July 16 and 17. Setting aside the fact that this is two separate days, neither 716 nor 717 are prime numbers. They should’ve done 7/19 instead.
If one conjoined twin commits a murder without the consent of their twin, will both have to go to prison or nobody?
It would be terrifying if it were to actually start raining men.
Had the song It’s Raining Men stuck in my head. Got me thinking. Would my home owners insurance cover the damages to my house? And what about the clean up?
Hanging out with my nieces/nephews I now understand most the discipline I received as a child was most likely because I was being annoying and nothing to do with right or wrong.
Hannah Montana was meant as a silly premise, but now it just makes sense.
After a certain point in popularity it is assumed the celeb is going to sooner or later:...
Lazy people are just very efficient people
Use volcanic ash to reverse global warming
While I was in the shower, I thought of a brilliant idea! Let’s trigger several smaller volcanic eruptions that release a semi-controlled amount of volcanic ash into other atmosphere. That will cool down the atmosphere, which should buy us some time to fix our carbon emissions....
If we took material like rock from space and got it back to Earth enough times, would Earth grow as a planet?
As the title says. I’m actually thinking about this hard with my friends because everything that’s produced on Earth stays on Earth so it doesn’t change size, but what if it’s not from Earth but it stays on Earth? https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/4b10eeca-d3fc-4aca-beff-8d9cb61b303a.png
Goatse, like Michelangelo's David, should be an exception to normal rules of censorship, due to its status as part of our shared cultural heritage.
It must be annoying for New York City workers to constantly have to clean spider webs off buildings in the Marvel universe.
Regarding Avocado Toast
We’ve all heard the stupid meme. “Millennials would have more money if they didn’t order so much avocado toast!”...
If you were to train a chatbot on all public statements of Donald Trump, you probably won't get a single factual answer.
If you nicknamed a Giraffe "Giff" how would you pronounce it?
We might see Microsoft adding ads to BSOD
Sure to annoy IT people but those just need a line of text while the rest of the screen is free real estate for Micro$oft! Public BSODs tend to go viral too.
Phone calls still assume the people on the receiving end are attached to a desk.
Why couldn’t this call be an email? Why would you call, when you know that you are near indistinguishable from spam calls about Microsoft services and Nigerian princes?
When you are on a videocall do you also keep looking at your own thumbnail video?
When I speak, unless I’m sharing the screen I always keep looking at myself. It’s kind of strange – it clearly does not match a real-world conversation, but somehow I can’t help it....
We don't really work 9 to 5 but still call our job 9-to-5
The only difference between a humane and an inhumane death, is whether or not it leaves a mess.
A person can be killed instantly through many different means....
