I genuinely thought The Float-Up Bar/Restaurant Shooter would be a rant about mixed drinks.
Oh, God…! Back in the Day…! My brother and his first wife… out in the Wild adjacent towns of Myrtle Beach.
“Come, try this. Now you’ll need an ice cold Coors draft first. Next to it, you’ll need a tall shot glass ( there might be a word for this piece of glass which I’ve forgotten ) which has a raw oyster and some Tabasco sauce. Now, you swallow the “shot” quickly and then drink your beer.
All set…?”
As you wish.
Give me some reactions to getting stabbed
I kept thinking the OP was looking for something like YouTube videos of people reacting to a video of someone getting stabbed. Which sounds pretty disturbing and probably violates YouTube’s terms of service.
Reemergence of Chinese business class after Mao?
I thought this was going to be about airplane seating.
American Science and Surplus is dead. Suggestions?
America is lacking in the science department lately, I will grant, but I hear that soybean farmers are experiencing a surplus, at least.
Is the AGI risk getting a bit overstated?
I finally clicked on that thread and figured out was it’s actually about. Before, I kept thinking “adjusted gross income” and assumed it was a tax question.
Diabetes recipes – dishes that can make you diabetic. What?! 
One hell of a lot of diabetes is directly caused by high carb diets and an over-active spoon. If someone has the basic genetic susceptibility, it really is recipes and portion control that cause their overt disease.
Now somebody seeking out those recipes? That’d be weird and misinterpretable.
I didn’t realize that’s what that thread’s about until I saw your post. I assumed it was recipes a diebetic person can eat.
That is what the thread is about. Healthy eating for diabetic people.
My comment was intended to point out that @Plutonium_Chef had inadvertantly stumbled on a misinterpretation that had some element of truth in it as a separate thread idea: “Want diabetes? Eat this”
Sorry if my comment confused anyone.
That really dumb idea…that you are secretly afraid would sell like hotcakes
I don’t understand how the really dumb idea that I’m secretly afraid could be monetized at all, let alone have it sell like hotcakes.
I’m curious. How do you deal with the not seen text?
I took that to mean something like hidden text within a web page or something like that.
Yeah, that one was horribly confusing, and even after trying to parse the actual post several times it still is.
It amounts to “I ignore stale texts from my sister rather than belatedly respond somehow. She’s offended by that. Who’s right?”
But yeah, the actual prose demonstrates there’s a lot of context in the OP’s head that didn’t make it into their post.
Is that like a competitor to Tesla and the Las Vegas Loop, where it’s a tunnel for Ford vehicles only? No? Never mind.
Schrödinger’s Thread:
Who is the poorest head of state in the world?
Behind Door #1: Who is the WORST head of state in the world?
Door #2: Who is the least-wealthy head of state in the world?
I should make this a poll, for those who haven’t spoiled themselves yet (as I haven’t). I’ll choose Door #2…so seeing if I get a free car, or a goat…[takes a peek]
I get a Trabant at least, I guess.
I see kaylasdad99 chose Door #1, to his chagrin, and some mod-attention.
Then there’s this thread with this misinterpretation:
Did your offspring write a book, or did you write a book for juveniles?
I wondered about that too. The latter meaning would have been spelled “My kids’ novel…” but you can’t always trust people to use apostrophes correctly.
Its definitely true that you can’t trust apostrophe placement. It seldom gets used in it’s proper place.
