    I was at school when they turned on the Large Hadron Collider for the first time. A girl told me she wasn't worried about the black hole because it was microscopic, so she wouldn't fit into it.

He actually did have a full name, at least at the earlier stages of his design.

      @epictoast
      I don’t think so. Her spell was specifically aimed at all existing animus dragons. So if they were not hatched, the spell would still apply because they existed when the spell was cast.
      But they can still have the gene to pass on to future generations and new animus dragons and still hatch because she never said anything about new animus dragons.

      If someone was able to get all the shards together would animus magic be restored? When jeraboa placed the spell she only said when the item is broken. So if it was put together would it be fixed? What would work to fix it? Glue, flamesilk or something else? My opinion is that it would bring back animus magic but you couldn't use a normal item like glue/tape and if you were trying to put it back together you would need an icewing gift.

      The answer is objectively the egg, there were millions of egg-laying animals millions of years before chickens even existed. If the question is wether the chicken or the egg containing a chicken specifically came first the answer would still be the egg because chickens were domesticated from the junglefowl and it would've been a semi-domesticated junglefowl that laid the first egg with a true chicken inside.

    My Dad used to lead my local Beavers (the level before Cubscouts) group. At some point an argument developed between some of the kids and my Dad, over whether they could run faster than a kicked football. This resulted in my Dad bringing a ball, us all going outside, him kicking it, and us trying to beat it to the end of the field.
    This was intended to prove his point once and for all, but became a semi-regular activity because everyone wanted another go.
    I'll repeat that: some 5 to 8 year olds thought they could run faster than 60mph (the rough average speed of a kicked football), they raced against a ball doing about 65 mph, and they then kept trying this almost weekly afterwards.
    Strangely enough, the football won.

    My entire physics class (me included) once got into an argument about whether the shaker cheese in pizza parlors was a powder or not. It was pretty much the whole class saying it was a powder against this one very persuasive guy who said it was "shredded."
    Let me tell you, I'm not lying when I say this shit got INTENSE. We were citing sources, at one point I pulled out a CHEESE PHASE DIAGRAM (don't ask), We were doing dramatic readings of rheology textbooks, someone found an article on the shear modulus of cheese types, and someone else even cited some guy on Quora named Ilgaz Soykal (yes we are all massive fucking nerds). We were arguing about this for the WHOLE CLASS (it was a substitute teacher, and the class didn't have many lectures anyway).
    After class, someone ended up asking the chemistry teacher, and she said it was a powder, so tAKE THAT, DAVE.

To sum up the advantages each side had:
      Darth Vader - Has a Lightsaber that can probably bypass Mr. Incredible's durability (this is huge). Can use Telekinesis, though note that we concluded that it'd be hard to hurt Mr. Incredible directly with this (no Force Choking for example). Has more years of training/experience.
      Mr. Incredible - Has better agility and especially mobility. Despite having super strength, he is a tactical fighter who usually defaults to fighting from a distance against foes that have obvious melee advantages. Uses large objects like debris as projectiles, which can't be deflected as easily as Star Wars Blasters, and is strong enough to use projectiles larger than Darth Vader can simply brush away with telekinesis. Has fought a wider variety of foes, and thus will be more used to fighting someone like Darth Vader than vice versa. Improved mobility implies that he'll have the high ground. Does not wear a cape.
      Both - Have improved perception, either due to the Force or enhanced senses. Both also wear armor/suits that provide some light protection.

The arguments we ended up having were possibly the dumbest I have ever even heard of. The highlight for me has to be "What is Mario's last name?" We of course ignored his name on the wiki being "Mario Mario" and eventually concluded after literal weeks of this going on that Mario's last name is "brothers" because all of the games were called "Mario Brothers." This naturally means "Luigi Brothers" is Luigi's full name. Both of them also had the title of "Super" hence the games being called "Super Mario Brothers."

      Let's take teeth-
      If one were to lose one's cheeks & jaw, the remaining teeth would then be, essentially, external. However, that is not their natural state. Making a change to the natural state of something (their surroundings, etc) doesn't change what something fundamentally is.
      There have been animals & people born with organs outside of their body, such as their heart. That doesn't change it into an external organ.
      Some animals have a clear, permanent eyelid/cover. Others have a mobile lid that helps it function. If that lid is removed, that's a heck of a problem, but for an internal organ.
      "...if it needs to be kept inside you in order to keep working then it's internal." Eyes do indeed need to be kept in their sockets.

In Hebrew, this would be something like Y'shu'im (I also don't speak Hebrew, but I know a little from 7 years of Hebrew school and a lot of time in synagogue) (ישועים maybe, but that looks wrong, and I've never been good at spelling in Hebrew, so maybe it's ישוים without the ayin).

      If -i or -s is used has nothing to with the spelling of the word, that's a "correlation does not imply causation" thing: the difference is if the word has a Greek or Latin origin. The Greeks pluralised with -i, so words with Greek origins still do, while the Latins used -s, -m, -a, or -um, which we've simplified to just the first. Also, English defaults to -s if it's from some other language, a trait we got from French.
      Keep in mind it gets a bit tricky if the word started out as Greek but became a Latin word by assimilation. For example, we don't say "Phobi" because we don't say "Phobos". "Phobia" is a Latin word, so we're using a middle step. Octopus connects directly to the Greek "oktōpous", with no Latin mid-step. Thus, Octopi.
      QED, "Jesus" would pluralise as Jesuses, because it is from the Latin "Iēsous".

      @@thatdamncrow9197 Correct! However quick correction FOURTEEN hour difference. You didnt account for AM and PM. In australia it was 6:30 _AM_ and in america it was 8:30 _PM_ . Like I said 14 hour difference also

    I got into a years-long argument with some friends over whether cereal is a soup or not. It evolved into several mini arguments including whether eating cereal without milk is a valid way to eat, and if there is such thing as a "sweet soup"

      I suppose there is such a thing as "sweet soup". Not all soup is savory, after all, and it's not a requirement for soup to be savory. Since soup has to be cooked, I think cereal would only count as a soup if it was heated up. Otherwise it's just cereal. And yeah, most foods have their own categories. Lol

      I fucking hate the "is cereal soup" argument and every argument similar to it. Cereal is cereal, it doesn't have to be anything else dude. It's fucking cereal, you call it ceral, I call it cereal, everyone calls it cereal SO WHY WOULD IT BE SOUP??

      that's the wrong question to ask.
      the definition of cereal is the grain in crops like wheat or barley
      specifically with milk is it a soup and then go into the idea of is milk in a bowl of cereal a broth or not
