i chose the most popular result on all of these except for nonplussed, which has the largest split anyways. imo being nonplussed by something is when some real bullshit happens in front of you and you just kinda stare for a second and then walk away. it's not that you are or aren't bothered, you simply just feel that it isn't worth reacting to. "this may as well happen" type of reaction. i chose the first option because there is some surprise/confusion to it but it turns into a "im not gonna waste my time on this" response. when a customer stands yelling at you and you just stand there like 😐. nonplussed

You are 60% water and every lake, river, pond, swamp, creek, and ocean you encounter wants to reclaim it desperately. Be careful out there.

Good, I hope it haunts everyone about to enter a body of water so bad that they wear a life jacket. 🙌

[should-be-sleeping]

Every single person I knew (past tense) who has drowned was "a strong swimmer." Water in the wild does not care how good you are at swimming.

[should-be-sleeping]

I mean this with all due respect:

You are not going to pass a skillcheck against a rip current once it has you.

Waves will not bow to your physical prowess no matter how impressive.

Shock does not care that you used to be on your school swim team.

If you hit your head, being good at swimming isn't going to turn you face-up while you're unconscious.

You may be unable to return to shore. Rescue may be unable to find you quickly.

[wizardarchetypes]

when you're in water, moving cools you down. you lose heat faster in water, even relatively warm water on a pretty warm day.

as you cool down, your muscles stiffen, you lose the ability to swim much faster than usual (again, not even always in cold water!), and you drown.

to remain warm until rescue, it's important to stay still and get into the H.E.L.P. position to preserve body heat.

you can't do that treading water. You can only do that with a proper flotation device.

I once went into the water on a nice, sunny day at a popular boating lake surrounded by boaters. It took 45 minutes to be rescued. Could you swim for that long? Could you swim for that long while shivering and stiff?

Wear a life jacket!

Just escaped from Hell thanks to the incredibly convenient road leading directly out! Apparently it was paved with good intentions? Thanks for those, everybody! They worked out great, just like always!

[totally-cis-offical]

The road to hell is a two-way road.

The Romans could’ve learned a thing or two

[lebagelgirl]

Some Pratchett-ian shit right here, i could absolutely see someone talking to granny or vimes about "clawing their way out of hell"

"Why didn't you use the road." "what road?!" "You know, the road. That one with all them good intentions." "Thats the road to hell." "Never heard of a road you couldn't walk both ways.*"

* This was only true because they had never heard of the road built across the circle sea over the disc's great rimfall which was made by craftsmen who took the term terminus quite literally.

whenever we try to get our dogs excited for something we've been saying "do you want [activity / treat / etc]" and only now we've realized that they don't actually understand [activity / treat / etc] in isolation. we can say "ice cream" a million times to no response, but "do you want ice cream" works.

however, "do you want" also works.

"want" by itself, also works

we've conditioned our dogs to beg for the root of all suffering - they will not be escaping the cycle of samsara - we goofed - their karma is fucked - absolutely fucked

[teaboot]

Not a word of shit I am so fucking angry that vaping has entered public consciousness as a common and rote habit. Do you understand that when I, not even in my REAL ADULT numbers, was a teen, almost none of us smoked? Like. Maybe ten, fifteen kids in my whole ass school. When E-Cigarettes came out, we pretty much all figured it was dorky-looking and stupid, like the cancer version of riding a Segway. But no. No, they made the computer drugs fruit flavoured and yall lost your fucking minds. AND THEN THEY TOOK THE HANDLEBAR OFF THE SEGWAY AND CALLED IT A HOVERBOARD

quick question why does your cat command you to print something on the printer

he really likes to watch the printer print. It seems like he thinks there’s some kind of creature in there that I have the mysterious power to summon that he can then hunt for sport?

he sticks his entire arm inside the printer and breaks it if I don’t put some kind of physical burrier between him and the printer but like he purrs so loud when it starts printing and will beg harder for people to print things than he will for treats.

he just loves hunting the printer so much. he even tried to climb inside the place the paper comes out of the printer when he was a kitten.

No matter where he is in the apartment if the printer makes a noise he sprints full speed. He also knows which button to press to get the printer to print like the ink levels info and alignment sheet, so you have to make sure it’s off or locked up or he will print nonstop himself and then attack the printer and jam it.

is it inconvenient that my cat is obsessed with the printer? yes, but damn if it’s not also adorable.

I don’t actually have a ton of photos of him sticking his whole arm in there though because stopping him from jamming the printer is usually a task that involves all of my arms and also all of my roommates arms.

[nettlewildfairy]

Thinking about the post because I had to unplug the printer today because he broke into the closet and printed the info sheet 3 times in a row and did bite me when I tried to stop him

The face of a boy who is sulking because I expelled him from the printer closet.

[nettlewildfairy]

the good news is that my cat is so happy, the bad news is that my sticker cutting machine that I got recently instils the same curiosity and lust for violence in my cat that my printer does so no matter what I do I will not know a moments peace.
