Whipping out the old classics, I see.

The triangle's where it's really at ∇ . Hexagons fanboys are always saying "but what about benzene? Obviously only a superior shape must occur naturally like that!". But hear this, hexagooner: What about ozone? What about water? Also, don't you know we can make hexagons by grouping triangles ? Heck, you can make any polygon with enough triangles.The only question is why we'd ever want to do that if we already have triangles, because triangles are the best shape. Δ ∇ Δ ∇
Oh, this reminded me of a story from when I was active on some Facebook groups (somewhat nsfw so I'm putting it in spoilers, feel free to ignore)
Title
So it was on one of the Neon Genesis Evangelion groups and someone had posted a pic of a figurine of Asuka with some orange goo on it. People asked, "what is it" and the man nonchalantly replied it was his cum, as if it was the most obvious thing. "But why is it orange?", the people asked. The poster of the image explained that some people had orange cum and that it was perfectly normal. His doctor had even told him it was "very strong cum", apparently.
Understandable, u and v are originally the same letter, so the words are really "vvvla" and "vvlva", just a small permutation...
Woman was already not fine, the first woman didn't want to be under Adam and demanded wings.
Louder!
I tend to think of Valentine's day as the hum of a fridge: Easy to ignore until brought to my attention, and soon forgotten afterwards.
Isn't "thin blue line" one of these pro-cop phrases that resurfaced in reaction to BLM? If so, I think fascism might be a part of the problem.
Not really, anecdotal evidence would be "I used to flush flushable wipes and my toiled got clogged". Which wouldn't be entirely worthless, but even assuming good faith it could have been a coincidence, so not worth a whole lot either.
Quoting a plumber, who'd be qualified on the subject, is an argument of authority. It's a bit more reliable as long as you recognize the authority of plumbers over all things plumbing. There's also room for error through misquoting, and of course like for all arguments, it could be a plain lie. But
- This statement seems simple enough to not be easily misquoted.
- The stakes of this conversation are pretty low, so unless we're dealing with a compulsive liar, there's not much point in lying.
I'd give this a solid 76% reliable. If I had some wipes I intended to flush, after reading that I'd probably look for more sources online to confirm before I do.
Oh wow, these are really getting better, I love that one!
Aside from the very much sung "why didn't they use the time turner then", there's a bunch of "Why didn't they stop Voldemort then" that could be inserted at various points of the story; when you consider that:
1- Albus had a spy within the death eaters in the person if Severus Snape.
2- In "the Order of the Phoenix", while Voldy could take Albus 1 on 1, he retreated when more people arrived, implying they could gang up on him.
3- Sure they couldn't kill him without the horcruxes, but another important plot point is that they have a magical prison, staffed with creatures that absorb your life force. Sure, Azkaban seems like a joke considering the number of prisoners breaking out of it... But in the case of Sirius he could escape transformed as a dog because they didn't know he was an animagus and hadn't taken the relevant measures, and the rest were broken out from outside. Certainly, they could hold Voldy with the right measures. Albus was monitoring Voldemort and the death eaters activity the whole time. In the first book/movie, he even had him within his school, unknowingly sure, but he knew Voldemort was likely to try and get his hands on the philosopher's stone, and was just like "don't worry, it's well protected", not even trying to set up an ambush, or to pursue Voldemort once he knows he was there.
