I’m waiting for the subplot where Hot Buttered Toast realizes her mistake and tries to seduce Giraffe.

In case anybody wants to debate the topic in the OP:

Speaking strictly from a scientific POV:

Doesn’t one need a point of reference?

For example: If I’m in a car and I can’t hear the hum of the engine and I can’t feel the forward thrust of the car and I can’t see the trees moving past out the window; how do I know I’m moving?

I need all that input to know that I am moving. (Or hell, even one of those inputs)

So, wouldn’t the same be true for Happiness vs sadness?

BZZZZTTT! Explaining what junior modding is is junior modding. Luckily, this is not true for criticizing the explanation of junior modding by a junior mod, or I would be junior modding. Think of it like 2nd cousin incest.

But isn’t explaining that explaining that junior modding is junior modding also junior modding?

This is the point at which one of you gets caught in a logical loop and your head catches on fire while Captain Kirk saves the day.

If I were to attempt to answer this question in any way, I would be junior modding but I won’t so I’m not and I wasn’t before either. 😉

Fun fact, Hot Buttered Toast would be 23 now. I bet that makes y’all feel old.

It is absolutely _nothing_ like 2nd cousin incest.  
I mean, um…or so I’ve been told.

Doubt it. More like boldly uncapping the Drano, then replacing the lid and gently placing the bottle back under the sink.

I am laughing my ass off at the visual of C **boldly** uncapping a Drano bottle, orchestra building to a crescendo behind him.
