You just invented Spicy Jenga.

Somebody touching the thermostat

Aw feel better 🤍

I’m from NJ and these are all different sounds to me. This short shows the difference: https://youtube.com/shorts/S3EaMZUXQYs

Ah, I see now - that’s a very good point!

If you re-read what I wrote, you’ll see that’s not at all what I’m saying. Regardless I’m done with this conversation because this:

I’m sorry to be pedantic

No you’re not.

is unnecessarily rude. Have a great day.

I wonder if we’d find his work funny today.

The person I was replying was “guaranteeing” that a 300lb person can lift at least 300lbs. I’m sure your father was strong but he was a professional gymnast. He’s an outlier. And genuinely, good for your dad - that’s great. But the vast majority of 300lb people aren’t super fit. They can’t all lift 300lbs and this is what I’m arguing. I’m not talking specifically about your dad, I’m replying to the other poster who was making a ridiculous generalization.

I’m sorry to be pedantic, but you said:

How much do you think a 300 lb person can lift? I guarantee it’s at least 300 lbs.

And I’m telling you it’s unlikely they can lift 300lbs. Deadlift, lunge, squat. Because that weight is in addition to the body weight they’re used to carrying. And even for bench, pull-up, or chin-up, they are unlikely to be able to complete even one rep because those require upper body and core strength, which are not naturally built just by dint of being obese.

I’m just saying that the average 300lb person isn’t magically super strong.

Let’s see your average 300lb person do a pull-up. Or let’s see them deadlift 300lbs.

Sure their legs will be strong from carting around all that mass, but unless they’re actively strength training, that leg strength isn’t going to be as impressive as you think.

Jesus. That’s medical neglect :(

Ha I love this for her

What about the ponies? Are you a ponyphobe or something?

Happy howloween Yukon!

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but isn’t that why neurodivergences are generally considered along a spectrum? As in, it’s possible to be mildly autistic or mildly ADHD, and therefore still pretty functional - or it’s possible to be profoundly autistic or profoundly ADHD, and therefore probably low-functioning - or anywhere in between?

I would argue that a judge who does this is not fit to serve and should be removed from the courtroom, full stop.

Swirlies are the worst.

Aww :')

Go on…
