Ok this is super good! I would love if he woke up in a museum (the British museum would an extra layer of confusion) and was caught on camera by the visitors. Some people think it's just a way to advertise the museum but archeologists/military are using it to figure out what happened.

Omg we are such opposites. I grew up in FL and 60sF (15C) is winter for us. Like people will straight up wear jackets in the 60s. I love weather in the 80sF (26C), 90sF (32C) is bearable, but 100sF (37C) is horrible and stay inside as much as possible.

I 100% know people who never discussed their religion/culture before starting to date and then refused to address their obvious religious/cultural differences for way to long. I live in a major city in the US so we have tons of people from all sorts of backgrounds. Some people I know don't want to bring up their religious/cultural beliefs until they know the person a bit better but by then they are in deep and don't want to leave despite the glaring differences.

I seriously thought about this and in my opinion, no. With it upside down, the head opening would be right at your privates making them more like pantalettes (old timey open-crotch underware).

I agree completely because it's super confusing for most women to find the right bra. Which then leads to women wearing the wrong size and feeling uncomfortable.

Breast size has no affect on breast feeding. Any sources to back up your claim?

This graph is useless because cup size ≠ breast size. Cup and band sizes go together to fit the person. A 34D is way smaller than a 40D even though they are the same cup size. Without the band size we have no idea what the real difference is. This video explains it pretty well: https://youtu.be/L9JZzPMHok8

Omg thank you for this!!! I never understood when whom would ever be used!!

So I think the "horse is likely to bite you if you’re looking in its mouth too closely" is an assumption we both had about this phrase. I grew up in the suburbs and rarely saw horses so I assumed this phrase was about it possibly bitting. However I now live in a more rural area and horses are pretty sweet and the only reason anyone looks in their mouth is to make sure they're healthy or figure their age. I'm guessing you, like me, also grew up not around horses so we assumed the English version means something different than it probably did in the past when horses were common place.

There are rumors the original creators are making a new animated show about the next avatar in the cycle who is an earth bender. More info is supposed to be released this year!

So not trying to argue, just have a genuine conversation. Talking from an American perspective, British implies the British Isles (place) to me and not the people (who I honestly have no idea when they lived or currently live there??). I'm not familiar with any other name for the isles (again speaking as an American).

Also, I think (or hope) that most people would understand and any research into the Iron Age is only showing a survival bias that may not indicate the whole population in an area. However, I think it's fair to state that if you see a trend across multiple sites in roughly the same time period, it indicates a larger cultural practice in that area because we are only seeing a small amount of surving evidence. For this reason, I think "some" is too broad.

It shouldn't say "Some", it should say "British" because if you read the article this seems to be a trend across British iron age communities.

As an old person who plays Genshin Impact, the "character banners" are 100% loot boxes. They have a pity system which guarantees a five star character after 100 "wishes" but even then it may not be the character you wanted. You might have to "wish" up to 200 times to get the five star character you are "wishing" for on the banner. Since you are not buying the character out right and gambling to get them it's a loot box.

For anyone who doesn't play "character banners" are a limited run (3 weeks) of a five star character that you can only get from the banner. "Wishes" are like rolls for the character. Each wish you lose gives you either a weapon (3 star/practically useless in game) and every 10 wishes gurantees a four star weapon or four star character.

I was about to roll my eyes and scroll past your comment but then I read "powdered wig". I was committed to read it all when I saw "smoothbore". The "tally ho lads" was hilarious. Great job all the way through!

I did it with a feather, two eggs, and a barrel of molasses.

I jokingly accuse my partner of stealing my glasses when I lose them. I just put them down in random places and am then too blind to find them again. A few days ago I told my partner I lost my glasses and he blamed ME for stealing my own glasses!! How can I steal my own glasses??

I grew up in FL and had a "pet" opossum for a while. Her mom was hit by car when she was a baby and she crawled up to our front door during a rain storm. My mom was heart broken when she realized what happened so she let us keep her till she was old enough to be released. She was super cuddly and would crawl up on your neck and lick your hair. We partially potty trained her using dog pee pads. The only down side is she liked to borough in our couch so we had to move the couch often and clean it out.

Once she was an adult we would let her out at night when other opossums in the neighborhood were around. She usually came back in the morning and would eat a bunch of food. One day she didn't come back so I hope she integrated with the local opossums and lived a happy life.

So I didn't read all the replies so I'm not sure if someone said this better but physical attraction has many parts and the best thing you can do is figure out what exactly you are attracted to and find someone who meets most of that. For example, maybe you like dark hair, angular nose, and light eyes. Then you can look for someone with those features.

However I would like to say that attraction is so much more than physical and I truly think you should focus on what non-physical things you are attracted to instead. Years ago I figured out I wanted a partner with a similar sense of humor, kind/caring, and actually listened to me when I talked. When I focused on people with those qualities I had such a better dating experience. I ended up marrying someone who previously wouldn't have been a top pick physically but our emotional connection is super strong.

I've seen so many friends struggle with relationships where the physical attraction is strong but they don't fully click on everything else. What I'm saying is find the qualities thst really matter to you both physical and personality-wise and look for people who fit those. You'll be surprised to see how your preferences can change physically when you're with someone you have a strong emotional connection with.

It's been a really long time since I read "The Three Musketeers" but I loved the way they described the duels. I also love the way sword duels from that time period are portrayed in movies. Fencing is also something I enjoy watching everytime the Olympics comes around.

The house I grew up in had two trees in the front yard. We would tie string (probably a thin nylon rope) between the trees and hang sheets/blankets on the string, creating a "fort". All the neighborhood kids would hang out there in the summer and we had so much fun pretending it was a fort, spaceship, bus, etc.
