Another option that usually works is just disabling JavaScript for that site.

Fun prank.

"How do you know they're all booked? Maybe someone didn't show up. Can you go check?"

Hehe, you could say that reply was done with much... celerity.

I've never heard of this until now, so take it with several grains of salt.

I'd imagine the complaints stem from the fact that she was never in charge of the country.
But then they should have complained when Ben Franklin was announced.
Or maybe they did complain when Ben Franklin was announced, but you can't really go "look at these bigots hating on Benjamin Franklin," so that wasn't shared around as much.
Of course even if that were the case, there would be people who draw the line at Tubman and not Franklin anyways, which could be a case of actual bigotry.
Or maybe a significant subset of the audience wasn't taught in school that Tubman was that influential, and sees this as blowing a historical figure out of proportion.

My hands are now unspeakably filthy as filthy people following the signs have accumulated a ton of germs on this handle. I get sick.

Do you normally get sick when you touch a bathroom door handle? It's not like people choose not to wash their hands because there's a separate handle for it.

Linux machines don't crash unexpectedly, because if they do, it's your fault for configuring it wrong and you should have expected it.

Sir! Excuse me, sir!

I'd say option 3. Personally, I don't care if random websites get my IP among a list of hundreds of others, and if someone wants to keep their IP hidden from strangers, they should be using a VPN before browsing the net anyways. It'd also be nice not to have to open another instance when I come to a post with a broken image that I want to see, but that's not hugely important to me.

If it were an instance specifically for privacy enthusiasts, that'd be a different story, but this is a general-purpose instance, and option 3 seems to be what's best for both general users and the server itself.

The long-awaited sequel to "how to spot a polymorphed dragon."

Yeah, me neither. The place looks like it might have been cool when I was a kid, though.

It got reuploaded here, didn't it?

Human reaction time is ~0.25 seconds.
At 20 mph, you're going ~29 ft per second, so you go ~7.3 ft before you can react.
At 25 mph, that's ~37 ft per second, so ~9.2 ft before you can react.

The internet says a good car can break at about 15 f/s^2.
At 29 f/s, that comes out to a stopping distance of ~28 ft.
At 37 f/s, that's ~46 ft.

So Anne, who's annoying for some reason, needs a total of ~35 ft to stop just before hitting the child.
Norman needs ~9 ft to start decelerating, so by the time he reaches the 35 ft mark (after ~26 ft of hitting the brakes,) it's been a total of ~0.98 seconds, and he is going ~26 f/s, which is ~18 miles per hour.

Yes. I believe this is what the SCP committee would call a memetic hazard.

As an elf, I wouldn't feel qualified to answer that.

Actually I was just being passive aggressive at you for the bit. But it's totally understandable that you didn't notice.
