Hmm, I don't know who either of those people are and they don't look interesting enough to google. I have heard of WhatsApp though, even if I don't use it.

Ah thanks, yeah I didn't bother to google it. But now you've raised by interest in it to the point where I had to see where it came from. The best part is that the word got its start on reddit. It's been shortened from mid-witted coined in a 2012 article and first used in a meme on Jan. 1 2017. https://en.meming.world/wiki/Midwit

It is really cool, nothing can take away from that fact. This is something that having a low population and very little ethnic diversity plays a huge role in though. Community trust and behaviour like this is more common than most believe but is rarely seen in more diverse, larger population, communities. People are still people so I'm sure there are some that take advantage of this setup even where it works. Still it's nice to see that, regardless of why it happens, it still does.

I had a dream like this recently. Only the signs were "do not swim" "Do not swim you will die" and the like. It was in a cave that you had to take a boat to under a volcano. They were big signs and literally surrounded a section of water. Care to guess what people decided to do? If you guessed read the signs then you'd be wrong. No they died and still more people seemed to think well maybe it was just them.
I like when my dreams are like movies. Good guys, bad guys, a story with plot, but I didn't really need that much realism in my dream.

I thought this was rather routine in Buffy the Vampire Slayer (show). Sure there were a few all suave and what not but the rest?

I don't think I can forgive them for butchering her character. They should have just made it a fantasy show and left the LoTR stuff out.

Well technically I read it as "Child Photograph" not "Child Photography". So I guess I'm just an error. Also, I hate the English language in that photograph and photography are pronounced differently.

Interesting fact about cats. The hormone that tells a cat to grow is only produced when they are asleep. So a kitten can't physically grow unless it's asleep.

You may be one of those rare individuals that can care about everyone the same as you would your closest friends and family. I don't know. Most of us though are not. So I call out crap like this^ occasionally. If there was ever a tweet that gets made into a meme being racist against non-whites I hope I'd do the same. But it's very unlikely that it will ever show up here. Instead your comment makes you look like you see yourself as sitting on a high horse and how dare someone say something in this area that's not me. I hope that was not your intent and that you don't see yourself as better than the rest of us. Just one more person trying to make the world a better place and maybe have some fun along the way.

There are rare individuals that empathize at that level but everyone else? No we don't. Why? Because it is a psychological trait inherent in humans to take a offense when an "other" purposely insults us. We are less insulted to hugely varying degrees when the object of the insult is towards "others". Yes, most of us can ideologically recognize that it is an insult and given a set of moral beliefs generally condemn such behavior. But it will never impact us the same as the insulted "group". The greater the degree of separation between ourselves and the insult or act the less we feel about it. The closer the more. Here's an example: Myanmar's government actively tries to eradicate other ethnic groups. When was the last time you saw this on the news. Why? Because it doesn't hit close to home and yet it's still racism. Still the same issue just on the opposite side of the world.

@karlboll First, there is no such thing as a non-pathetic racist but when was the last time someone tweeted something inherently racist about a black person? I'm sure it happens but when it does the tweet gets removed and they get banned. It certainly doesn't end up a meme. Second, this isn't a stereotype. A stereotype is something that can reasonably said to be a trait of a specific large group while also not generally exhibited by other groups. I doubt there is any statistical data that would or even could show white people walk in the rain more than black people. Truthfully, given climate and population density this would be more likely for asians. Thirdly, do you ask black people if they get as offended by this as they do when they're the target of racism? No, you don't. And it doesn't even matter do you know why? Because the truthful answer is going to be no.

Shhh, you can't tell colleges to look up the history of things. College is for revolutionary reactionaries not realists.

The "little ethnic diversity" come into play because there is just that. Scandinavian countries have very little ethnic diversity compared to other European countries. This is especially prevalent outside of the larger cities.
