Lake Ontario, the smallest of the great lakes... If he does this, we'll rename lake superior as Lake Canada

I lost it at the moon egg

As a québécois, I strongly suggest to watch Infoman (canadian politics satire, excellent way to stay informed on the federal level politics).

Also, some classics: "Dans une galaxie près de chez vous" (a show in the style of Red Dwarf, but targeting a younger public), "Le coeur a ses raisons" (a parody of soap operas), and even older "La ptite vie" (may not have aged as well, but depicts a typical Montreal family in the 80s)

For the hardcore, listen to François Pérusse "L'album du peuple".

All these things can be watched and rewatched many times and will never get boring.

Following somebody else's comment about how "taxes" help build communities, I'm now calling it ADHD fees (or ADHD hidden fees if you prefer the long version)

That whole situation sucks. I like to buy rock climbing pants because lots of them have zipper pockets while still looking like typical chinos.

Movement speed of a gelatinous cube is like 3 squares per turn. It's slow as hell!

It seems to me to be about infinitode, the geometry tower defense game... However I haven't played in a while and some of the words I did not recognise.

Maps without New Zealand

Also: is still open after every other restaurant in town has closed for the night.

Salty water can dissolve and thus destroy a whole bunch of other chemicals... We're lucky we evolved in an environment full of it so much that we are adapted to it!

Today I witnessed a kid skiing through a totally-avoidable puddle of water for fun. My friend commented on how immature the kid was because he got all wet.

Just at that instant, a ski resort employee on a snowmobile went through the exact same (totally avoidable) puddle.

I confess that I would have done the exact same thing! Also, if i was a bird, i would totally slide down roofs for fun.

While there may be a part of it being "different gravity", dark matter cannot 100% be explained by modified gravity of any kind.

Why do we know this? Well there are observable galaxies that survived collisions and have been stripped of their dark matter, and the reverse is also true (galaxy-sized dark matter blobs without baryonic matter in it).

I can refer you to this wonderful PBS Spacetime video about it: https://youtu.be/5t0jaE--l0Y

nothing is real do what you want

That is a fallacious conclusion from this observation. Don't use this philosophy as an excuse to act like an asshole.

While everyone perceives reality slightly differently, apples do have a specific light absorption and reflection spectrum.

Our limited perception of it doesn't make it "not real". Same is true for other senses as well.

This was written by every megafauna we drove to extinction

Same here! The janitor is such a badass, he keeps the whole building ruining and is always around.

The CEO sens like a nice guy, but everytime he's around, it feels like he's just trying to get people to wave at him.

We should simply allow European safety standards as equivalent to american ones, allowing every model approved i the EU to be sold in Canada without costly changes and re-certification.

If a car is good enough for German highways and Norwegian mountain roads, then they should be good enough for Canada.

I once was reported by the high school programming class for "plagiarism" because I used visual studio's auto-generated template to start my homework.

The teacher reported it to my parents, he wanted to make me fail. I was also reported for creating a "hidden" chat app that I shared with my friends. (It didn't show in the taskbar.)

Next Christmas, they bought me a visual studio license at home!

My job is to increase the entropy of the universe faster.

I like that yellow bite marks logo, not sure why people keep asking about bats.

In the context of Dawkins meme, this post is definitely a meme!

idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning

If we consider scientists imitating the behavior of other scientists (ex: leaving the us) combined with the social network post (signifying the symbolic meaning), it checks all the correct boxes to me!

Would another peer review my analysis?

Yup! It's not "abandoning" per se, it's more like "totally forgetting that I was trying a new life routine, so stopped doing it"

That's why it's so hard to take medication every day.
