“Felter? I hardly know her!”

I feel like Galaxy Quest with Tim Allen, Susan Sarandon, Alan Rickman, Rainn Wilson and Tony Shalhoub is a criminally underrated movie.

This one is one of my all-time favorites. “Spencer knows how to deal with floaters!”

This is really cool!

This made me laugh. I’m in my early 40s and in the past six months I’ve been using the Merlin app to identify birds by their song. It’s really fun to see what’s going on around me in terms of birds. I had no interest before.

To be fair, Plex/home theater stuff is so stinking fun tho.

Last year my youngest was in kindergarten around the time of St. Patrick’s Day here in the U.S. At some point they went out to recess and came back in to find little chocolate coins wrapped in gold foil on their desks. I picked him up after school and as we were driving away I asked how school was. He told me that he thinks leprechauns might be real. I asked what made him think they might be and he gave me the “we left class and when we came back there was chocolate on our desks” answer. I asked him if something else could have happened, like a teacher leaving them, and he said no, because the door is locked when they leave. I told him “maybe it was a rainbow unicorn who left the chocolate.” His response was very dismissive. He said “no Dad, that’s impossible because rainbow unicorns don’t exist.” He’s a sharp kid but he’s not quite at the logic stage. :)

Just to be safe, yes.

YES. Yes yes yes.

Weird, all I see are asterisks.

I’m not sure what it means, but I avoid anyone who has any form of flag on their truck/hat/coffee mug, etc. Experience has taught me that the louder, more vocal or self-proclaimed “Patriots” are just ignorant, bigoted blow-hards.

Thanks! I appreciate the response. I’ve seen some videos on 3blue1brown and I’ve really enjoyed them. I think if I were to go back and fill in all the blank spots in my math experience/education I would enjoy math quite a bit.

I came here to find some cool, mind-blowing facts about math and have instead confirmed that I’m not smart enough to have my mind blown. I am familiar with some of the words used by others in this thread, but not enough of them to understand, lol.
