Well, I’m pretty sure there were instances where Mario and Bowser cooperated. But it doesn’t matter, because even if only 2 answers make sense, the joke already works.

Riding somebody is a double entendre, often used as sexual innuendo beyond the literal sense of riding, like on a horse.
She does, apparently.
As per your recommendation, I watched that video. Not exactly sure why it was suggested though.
The plot made slightly more sense than none at all, but it was entertaining to watch.
What is this about even? What kind of install requires calls?
10·4 days agoUseless without trackpads. I can just use any other controller instead of this.
If I wasn’t dead, I would hate being a person in Middle English era either way.
But thanks for the interesting article.
131·5 days agoI agree with you that the article is clickbaity, it implies that it’s the default punishment. But technically, it isn’t wrong. It’s still possible to get death penalty for advocating for Taiwan independence.
Without looking at your post history, I think your downvotes are unjustified. You merely pointed out the clickbait. But it would be better if you presented it in more affirming way, cause right now your comment kinda reads like you’re refuting the article and “it’s not a death sentence, it’s only a 3-year imprisonment”, which is also not true.
In my experience, these mistakes are made primarily by native speakers. Because they learned it by hearing and can’t tell the difference. Those who learned English as a second language learn through books and are explicitly taught the difference.
You mostly just repeated what I said. And it’s not “pure” sugar, it’s about 10-15% sugar. Which applies to almost all commercial drinks, like juices, teas and coffees. You can’t single out sodas here, rest are just as bad. Just watch your sugar intake and you can drink sweet beverages fine.
I didn’t know that CO² is bad for bones. I’ll have to look that up.
On Reddit I always assumed that so many people can’t be that
stupiduneducated and make these obvious mistakes for engagement bait.
But now that we are on Lemmy, and engagement gets you nowhere, I’m losing faith in humanity at a faster pace.
For those of us who need to do research to get this joke, I already did it. They mean Rubicon River (which is no longer in the north, so don’t look for it there, it’s on the opposite side of the knee).
Everything is bad for you, if you consume a lot of it. Soda, as in carbonated drinks, isn’t inherently bad, it just has high sugar content. Which you still need to function, it’s energy, but in moderation. Nothing bad will happen if you occasionally drink a can of soda, just don’t substitute water with it. Which mostly a real problem only in NA. And if you live in NA, then also try to avoid overconsumption of all non-carbonated drinks, too. Cause juices and iced teas all have very comparable sugar content.
Nah, it’s obviously Terra Girl.
Whimsical or not, there was a scientific misconception used in the statement, that I myself used to have as well. My only goal was to help dispel the misconception. Usually, Lemmy is quite welcoming to correction of scientific inconsistencies in sci-fi discussions. Idk what happened in this particular thread, but it went off the rails. All my statement got misconstrued and downvoted, despite me engaging in the discussion in good faith and being factually correct. Several people showed up, making incorrect or irrelevant statements and got upvoted.
Like your “lungs are on the outside” comment. Maybe you can explain to me, why am I being antagonized and intentionally misunderstood? Obviously I didn’t mean that lungs are on the outside, context matters. And I explained the context in another comment.
Of course they do. I don’t think anybody ever denied that. Everybody has seen an animal being afraid.
As in emotions as complex as Homo Sapiens? Depends on the animal. Most, probably don’t, as they don’t physically have certain necessary brain structures. Some come extremely close and might be on par. But it could be hard to ever pinpoint exactly, which animals do.
I don’t see any hypocrisy here.
