    Vs low tide vs high tide vs tidal average…

    I think there are 4 different “tallest mountains on earth” depending on if you are measuring from sea level, how you are measuring sea level, or if you are measuring from the base and the mountain and how you are defining the base of the mountain.



  • Democrats believe that we can reduce gun violence while respecting the rights of responsible gun owners. We believe we should expand and strengthen background checks for those who want to purchase a firearm – because it shouldn’t be easier to get a gun than a driver’s license. We believe we should ensure that guns don’t fall into the hands of terrorists (whether they be domestic or foreign), domestic abusers, other violent criminals, or those who have shown signs of danger toward themselves or others. And we believe we should treat gun violence as the deadly public health crisis it is.

    Looks like you’re the one that needs their hand held.




  • Job: Supervisor

    Customer pays with a $50 or $100 bill and the till requires that I check it

    Customer: “It’s good, I just printed it this morning.”

    Some days I just had to pretend I didn’t hear them.

    Pro tip: if you have a “go to” joke you always say in a given situation, guaranteed the person you’re saying it to has already heard it several times this week. Just don’t.

    And before anyone responds with “they’re just trying to improve your day” they’re not. If I don’t find the joke funny they get offended, that means they aren’t doing it for me, they’re doing it to show off how great and funny they are.

    Pro tip: don’t tell someone a joke if you’re going to be offended if they don’t laugh.







  • People are often uncomfortable in graveyards and, for example, would not want to walk through one at night when they would be willing to walk through a field.

    The dirt does provide a sort of insulation however, as people would be more willing to walk through a graveyard than through a house that had the same density of corpses in the basement. It’s the theoretical accessibility to the corpse that plays a factor here.
