  1. Several of my ex girlfriends would probably say I'm the greatest escape artist of all time.

  2. Well as we learned from Zoolander, male models make good spies because they're really, really good looking, and people like them. I suspect the same applies to exotic dancers.

  3. I know people like that too, I can use analogies like a pickle turning into a pickle, there isn't a specific point in time where it stops being a cucumber and starts being a pickle, and they agree. Or water dripping into a bucket, they'll agree that eventually the bucket will overflow, whether they watch the entire process or not. But you give it the naughty evolution label..... Suddenly they don't agree.

  4. This video should serve as a PSA for all the people who blindly worship "science", which to them just means whatever mainstream media says that scientists are saying.

  5. They'll discover TikToc, and jet out of the planet faster than you can imagine, just in case any of us are still alive.

  6. I dunno, the fact that so much information is available, and every normal person can have a voice sounds good on the surface, but it also means there's more bad information out there than ever before.

  7.  @oilersridersbluejays  it's crazy how simply mentioning these irrefutable truths is enough to get people to freak out and pretend like you're defending Nazis and fascists. I got in a lot of shit for pointing that out when I was in school.

  8.  @roshanlackhan110  but I think a lot of that 40%, if they were really pressed, would admit that evolution probably is true, but they still believe in God. And I don't care about that, people can believe what they want to believe. But it's just considered sort of taboo in Christian spheres to say that you believe in evolution.

  9.  @ronniebrummett4995  can't be sure of that number with any reasonable degree of certainty.
    19
  10.  @Gahdinn  that's not how probability works, just because you can't prove something with 100% certainty doesn't mean any other random explanation is just as likely.
    17
  11.  @jamesmccusker2260  nothing is "sudden" when talking about evolution, if you're trying to be taken seriously with your arguments, at least understand what you're arguing against.

  13.  @vaisakh_km  he's definitely not a lizard. Don't be silly. Do you have any crickets, or heated rocks? But he's not a lizard.

  14.  @jamesmcbridenyc730  well I didn't just stumble upon my beliefs by accident either, I don't make any affirmative statement that God doesn't exist, I just don't know. And I don't think any religion has it right either, I just can't accept the idea about some all knowing creator setting up a system where only people who believe a certain thing get some kind of eternal cosmic reward, that just doesn't compute with anything we know about life and existence. I see religion as an attempt to explain things that we can't explain, and if I can't explain something I'm comfortable with just saying I don't know.

  15.  @JefferyEpstiensBlackBook  it trips me out all the time when I think about it, like just yesterday at my work the computers went down, and everyone was totally lost, just kinda froze like I guess we can't do work anymore now. Gotta just sit and stare at the screen until it tells me what to do. Freaking insane, it was within my lifetime that computers were barely necessary for work, just a luxury really. And it wasn't long before that they didn't exist at all, at least not in their common, every day form like they do now. Humanity got along fine without them for 99% of our existence. And don't get me wrong, it's pretty badass to be able to have a conversation with a complete stranger from any corner of the world, there are a lot of good things that have come from technology. But part of me still feels like we were overall better off without it.

  16.  @Gahdinn  except evolution is testable, and predictable, and has been demonstrated. It's proven as true to within what any reasonable person would consider as definitive proof, saying "it's not proven" is just a semantic argument, since nothing can be completely proven, not even existence itself. We could be living in a computer simulation, but since that's not provable, a reasonable person would assume that we are not in fact living in a simulation, and that even if we were, there would be no point in arguing about anything. Evolution is the same. Until you have an alternative theory that can be tested, and provided consistent results with the predictions, you have to just accept that evolution is true. If you're a reasonable person.

  17.  @jamesmccusker2260  just because you can't comprehend it doesn't mean it's immeasurable.

  18. I work at a kennel, and I always think of that when I see the term "escape artist" it's a pretty common code we put on the dogs info. I have seen some pretty damn impressive attempts and even successful escapes.

  19.  @supremealgo1  I've always seen it that way too, and I don't personally believe in God, or any particular religion. But I don't see where that conflicts with evolution, I mean, if there really is this all knowing, all powerful creator, it would make a lot of sense for him to create life with a built in mechanism for surviving and thriving. That way he can just kick back and play video games and let the universe do its thing. Seems like having to intervene and create everything would be exhausting, also not particularly "intelligent" design to make everything rigid and static.

  20.  @jamesmcbridenyc730  it does, but it doesn't always work that way either, one species emerging doesn't necessarily make it's ancestor or ancestors obsolete, like the finches that are famously mentioned in Darwin's original work, the finches that live on the side of the island with nut bearing trees eventually evolved to have shorter, more dense beaks, to crack the nuts, and the finches on the other side of the island had longer, more narrow beaks, to get into small crevices and get insects. Neither species "evolved" in the sense of being superior to the other, they just adapted to different niches.

  25.  @jamesmcbridenyc730  homosapiens are primates. And if I were believing in god just as an insurance policy, then I wouldn't really truly be believing in god, would I?

  26.  @dorraj4685  it's not a direct comparison, just an illustration of the concept.

  31. You can test science though, that's the difference. And I understand that a lot of the complex stuff isn't as simple as making a volcano out of baking soda and vinegar, but given that you have the know how and raw materials, you can test scientific hypotheses yourself.

  34. There is definitely no such thing as lizard people. On an unrelated note, does anyone have any crickets?

  35. I don't think it's so much that we're actually dumber, we just don't use our brain as much as we should. Back in the old days, if you couldn't remember that one movie that one guy was in, or you couldn't figure out how a piece of equipment works, you have to just figure that shit out on your own. Now we think for about a third of a second before we just ask our phone.

  36. Makes me think of that Family Guy cutaway where they say Jesus' miracles may have been overstated, and it shows him just making hand gestures behind his back and changing them to different hand gestures before he shows them again.

  37.  @daniellepatrioticexpat1022  no, not really, I don't have a lot but I've earned what I have, and I don't expect anything more. Because I'm not a greedy and selfish socialist, nobody owes me anything because they have more than me, and I don't owe anyone who has less than me. Fix your own life, take personal responsibility. Try it, just for once in your life. You might actually like the feeling of accomplishing something because you actually did it, instead of just begging for a handout.

  38.  @paulgoogol2652  I never said it's completely determined by talent and intelligence, you still have to do something about it. There are plenty of people born into wealth that piss it all away, and plenty of people born into nothing who rise into wealth on their own. You just have to find what you're good at and do it, it takes dedication and drive, but nobody is going to do it for you. Crying about the state of the world and expecting a handout has never helped a single person, not one. It does nothing but cause harm. The closest I could come to saying there's a positive effect for your kind of rhetoric is that it gives normal people something to laugh at on the internet. So thanks for that..... I guess.

  39.  @paulgoogol2652  how you spend your money matters a lot, I always hear socialists crying about "living wage" and other bullshit, but don't want to actually learn any skills that might make them more of an asset to a company. But they also don't ever look at the other side of it, you can make less money go a longer way by living more conservatively. Almost all Americans spend way too much on nonsense they don't need, and I'm not even trying to say I'm not guilty of that too, but Im also not crying about how it's someone else's fault I don't have more money. You can't have it all, you have to decide what really matters the most to you and live your life that way. This is basic adult stuff. I don't understand how so many people don't understand anything about life whatsoever, its mind blowing.

  40. I too, am too smart for this world. Greetings, my fellow misunderstood geniuses. Our super big brains are just too super and too big for normies to understand. And you know this is all true, because I said so. And I'm really smart.

  41.  @Frosty_tha_Snowman  sweet, so we're either not crazy or we're both crazy🤣 seriously though, it's probably some kind of primal part of our brain, like the same reason dogs like small, confined areas with only one entrance/exit. It's safe.

  49. But there's definitely a lot we don't know about consciousness, why you think the thoughts you think and I think mine. Maybe you're not comfortable calling that a "soul", but it's just our attempt at explaining a concept that can't really be articulated in words or explained by science.
    2
  50. I'm an atheist too, and I think the whole soul thing just lies in the "we don't know" category, I don't outright reject the idea of the supernatural, just skeptical. But I also willingly admit that there is a lot we don't know about existence as a whole, and as far as our understanding now, that would technically lie in the "supernatural" category, since we don't really have a sufficient natural explanation. Doesn't mean there is no natural explanation, but there may be or even likely is a certain portion of being that we just can't understand.

  51. Or did he?🤔..... Yea I'm just kidding, he's definitely dead.

  52.  @LazyLoonz  what if that's the biggest unknown factor of the Drake equation? Whether or not a civilization has TicTok, or something similar, and if they can actually survive past it and get to interstellar travel, or if that's the beginning of the end of said civilization, and they go extinct.

  55. Sometimes I imagine being in a cave or underground bunker when I'm having trouble sleeping. For some reason the idea of being somewhere enclosed and hidden puts me out fast. I'm sure a smart person would be able to break down some deeper psychological meaning to that.

  58. Damn, remember what it was like when you couldn't think of some random fact, or who that one dude was from that one movie you like? And you actually had to think in order to retrieve information from your mind? Man, what a nightmare.

  60.  @perceivedvelocity9914  so what happens if you drop an object?
    2
  61.  @perceivedvelocity9914  but anyone can test scientific hypotheses for themselves, they may just lack certain capabilities or materials. But if you really, really want to test a scientific hypothesis, you can save up some money and buy yourself a lab, read up on it and test it and see for yourself.

  70.  @zmeil  I don't buy the "we beat the wrong enemy" narrative though, maybe we beat them in the wrong order, or we should have just followed through of defeating the communists. Because it's becoming more clear by the day that the US lost the cold war. It's here, all of the things people were paranoid about after WW2. It's really happening. And people act like the "red scare" was just fear mongering, even though we're in the middle of a communist takeover as we speak.

  77. Dead internet is definitely real, there's no question about that. The only question is how widespread it is. It's pretty easy to get carried away and think everything is fake, and everyone is a bot, the truth is somewhere in the middle.
