But then you don’t get to sing that 500 miles song. At least go 5 miles while muttering about multipliers between verses.

It’s for the best, that song needs to fade from existence.

Honestly it sounds more like he went in with a preconceived notion, received data that verified his preconceived notion was incorrect, and then told everyone his preconceived notion seemed correct.

Sounds like he had three bad experiences over 4 years. That sounds like, on average, the world is not such a bad place.

There’s probably some wisdom in that, but unfortunately I can’t see it because my human experience sucks.

I’m sorry that you’re dissatisfied with the scientific method of his experience of humanity, which sounds more like an art project than seeking research grants.

Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it’s too interesting, it doesn’t belong. If it’s not interesting, it doesn’t belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh… what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don’t spam.
