Reply to National Park Service says ‘never push a slower friend down’ when escaping a bear by TheRealMisterNatural
Wouldn't the slower friend be the one to push someone down? The faster friend doesn't need to push someone down, they can just outrun them.

Reply to comment by sapphicpattern in LPT: When debating or arguing with someone and it’s going nowhere, ask them, “What evidence would it take for you to consider that you’re wrong?” If they say “Nothing,” then it’s time to end the conversation. by blowfishmo
But it is hard for a lot of people to admit that something they "know" is wrong. Why do people attach themselves to their knowledge? If im wrong about something, I got to learn something new that day and have even more knowledge. Muhahahahahahaha

Because I'm stuck on the floor of my kitchen curled up in a ball. I picked that spot because the air feels different. If I move from that spot I will cry.
Anyone who says you can overpower or logic with an anxiety attack has never gone through a bad one.

Tobacco companies literally add nicotine because it is addictive. Alcoholism destroys plenty of lives. Why do those substances, which are just as destructive, get a pass? Drugs aren't some addictive boogeyman that you were taught as a kid. There are plenty of people around you who do cocaine and you dont even know it. Key bumps happen in every bar bathroom across the country. Your server at a restaurant is probably on coke and you never noticed. If you've ever used a lawyer I can guarantee your lawyer is on coke. Your kids school teacher probably does coke on the occasional weekend. Your nurse or doctor definitely does it.
Drugs are everywhere, and if you know what signs to look for you will find it everywhere. You can see it if someone is really bad off on it, like Donald Trump Jr or Charlie sheen, but the vast majority of people who do it have no problem with it and can do it socially.
If you have an addiction, it isn't the substance that's causing it, its you trying to use that substance to cope with something else in your life. Sure, there are chemical dependencies that develop late in the addiction cycle for any substance, but the addiction started long before those chemical dependencies develop.

Why is it illegal anyway? Just legalize and regulate it, get rid of the black market and crime will plummet too. The war on drugs is so stupid.

Reply to How Morality Changes in a Foreign Language - fascinating ethical shifts come with thinking in a different language by fonliahea1994
Language is a tool. The tools are different and shape the way that you see the world or solve problems. Of course a different language is going to change your viewpoints, values, and morality. Anyone who has done any sort of traveling can tell you this.

As a high level golfer (I have beat division 1 college golfers and was a low level pro for a bit), I agree with you. I was plat in starcraft 2 back in the day9 days and the heart rate and sweating that would happen from playing was ridiculous. It was just as strenuous, if not more, than tournament golf.
