Meh, even some the most expensive kitty towers are cheaply made and fall apart at the slightest provocation.

I used to be this way with my healer cooldowns. Then I started PvPing a lot and was essentially forced to use to them if I wanted to live. After that it was a lot easier to judge the best time to use them in PvE.
What are the chances that they're also gers? 20 comments

The chances of someone looking *exactly* like you are so low that it's almost impossible. The chances of two people sharing just 8 facial metrics is 1 in 1 trillion. Granted those are metrics that are defined by facial recognition software. The reason some people look similar to us is because of the way the human brain processes faces. For the most part it uses facial patterns, the height, width, & distances between features, not the shape of individual features. Then, if that pattern matches one in your memory or if you're consciously studying a face, it analyzes feature shape. That's why the more you look at a set of "doppelgangers" the more different they start to look. Or if you're very familiar with a face (a spouse, for example) you can more easily see the difference. Now, if you are just talking about similar faces and not exact matches, and don't have a truly unusual face, that claim *might* hold true.

Explains why I loved jumping on a trampoline when I was a kid. Especially when my brother was on it with me. He was a lot bigger than me so he'd time his jumps to launch me super high. So much fun.

The chip companies need to get together and all make a chip bag with as little air in it as possible, so that when these dumb fucks buy them they can see for themselves that the air is in there for a fucking reason.

Idk, I don't think it's that unreasonable to expect a multi-billion dollar company to actually test a phone for design flaws. Especially one they want to charge almost $2k for.

Studies also show that exposure to green space has mental health benefits for adults as well.

Scientists call it green space but it doesn't necessarily have to be green, just any natural space. Also, the studies included proximity to parks as well.

They also have to deal with the founder effect. They were founded by a relatively small population and were quite isolated. Thankfully they kept extremely accurate genealogical records and so were able to avoid inbreeding for the most part.

I used to have a cat named Maxx that looked exactly like that. He was the most friendly and sociable cat I've ever seen. Which is kinda funny considering we found him at the dumpsters, and most of those cats are feral.

My reply was aimed at you guys but also at the op. The daughter doesn't think they look alike, so I explained why she might see it that way and why you two have a different perception as well.

You're kind of both right. Its because of the way your brain processes faces. For the most part it uses face ratios, the height, width, & distance between features, not the shape of individual features. Then if that ratio matches someone in your memory or if you're consciously studying a face, it analyzes feature shape. That's why the more you look at the pic, the less alike they look. If you look at each feature separately by covering up the rest of the face you can more easily see how different they are. But, because they have almost identical facial ratios they look very similar and you can definitely tell they're related.

On April fool's day we all searched for bing on Google to see if we could get it to the #1 searched for term. Didn't quite make it to #1, but we put a huge spike in the data.

It takes less energy and concentration to drink with a straw and this allows people to multitask more effectively. For example, it's a lot easier to use a straw while driving and you don't lose as much focus on the road as you would with a regular glass.

That is, in fact, Jeannette Charles, an actress and queen Liz look alike. Although, I personally don't see the resemblance.

So from what I can tell neurosurgeons get paid anywhere from $395k to $733k. But remember, they also have to pay malpractice insurance which can be up to $150k. The average NBA player makes about $7.7 million, NFL is $2.9 mil, MLB is $4.5 mil, and NHL is $2.7 mil. And Lionel Messi raked in $84 mil last year. So not quite sports star salary.

Even us pharmacists/pharmacy techs have trouble reading scripts sometimes. Reading a script with messy handwriting is mostly process of elimination. There are only so many drug names and sets of directions, so its relatively easy to narrow down what they were trying to write. Also, most of the time the directions are written in sig codes (essentially abbreviated latin), so if you don't know them it just looks like gibberish. As for the sign in the pic, I can only make out "________ or ______ now! -signature" the rest is just squiggles as far as I can tell.
