No! One pound of almonds weighs the same as one pound of milk! And... stuff...

I think it's been changed to "make like a tree and get outta here" now.

There was a thread about a blonde in an iron? How did she get in?

Manganese. A lot of people don't even know what that is. Nitrogen...

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

You do not have a problem with added chemicals? Or you do not have a problem with talking about added chemicals?

Now make like a hotdog, and ketchup!

I couldn't do that one... I'd have to correct the lyrics to, "I wish I were special," which is probably against the karaoke CG(All Hail™) and then they'd stop the music and tell me I had one strike.

Oh good, I'm not the only one singing it.

Maybe we could use this to our advantage. Like convince them all the sun is going to be eaten by an enormous mutant star-goat and we need to evacuate the planet. No wait, that ends badly. If we built this large wooden badger...

There's good naked and bad naked.

Because we're in Italy. Now if we were in Germany...

TWITCH. And don't call me Shirley! (because I'm not genetically inferior) That was sarc-yeah I can't even keep a straight face.

Just wait till the MyFitnessPalimony suit.

LMFAO @ page 10. You guys* are killing it. *by which I mean the colloquial use which includes both sexes.

I just want to know if it's finally been decided whether women should train before men like the title suggests.

If I wear my seatbelt while driving and don't get into an accident, it was pointless to wear my seatbelt. If I get a cancer screening and I don't have cancer, the screening was pointless. And so forth.

But isn't correcting peoples' English against the CG(All Hail™)?

This too. It's very seductive. There's so many ways to end up being wrong about things!

Skitt's Law: the likelihood of an error in a post correcting another user is directly proportional to the embarrassment it will cause the poster.

Yeah sorry I should have kept Poe's Law in mind. :D

Ok, I understand what you're saying, but I'm not sure how this relates to the ability of humans to figure things out, which is what I meant by "truth detection." We did evolve to be able to tell what's going on in our environment, but clearly (as demonstrated by optical illusions and the equivalent cognitive fails) we are…

I don't understand what you're trying to say, but I suspect it's a semantic argument. We use the same parts of our brains, and thus all the same defective/illusion-generating pathways, to determine all of those things. And if you're really going to argue about electrons, it actually isn't possible to say whether or not…

Maybe every observation of difference doesn't deserve a value judgment, but this is humanity, so it will likely get one anyway. 1- FTFY. B- This is why we can't have nice things. (4- I admit the hypocrisy of the above being value judgments. Just in case Jof comes along.)

I was pretending to be offended. Because I'm silly. It wasn't obvious that I was being ridiculous?

How many individual (non-team) sports involve women competing against men? In how many sports are the womens' records better than the mens' records? Obviously some women are stronger than some men. But the strongest men are stronger than the strongest women, and the average man is stronger than the average woman. So in…

Wait, are you saying that when it comes to recovery, men are inferior to women?!?!?!

Fraternal twins are no more genetically similar than regular siblings. Also women and men differ genetically (more than that between men or between women) because of the sex chromosomes.

I wonder how much of that is from the phenomenon that causes Dunning-Kruger. Are smart people underestimating how smart they are and overestimating the gap between them and the people they believe are choosing to be ignorant?
