Lisek Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I don't understand why someone I know (a friend of a former friend) decided to close down their business, even though it was actually making money! The worst part is I was well on the way to being their biggest customer, and there is no other local place I know that fills my aching desire for fancy sodas.

Kaizy Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) I'll never understand the appeal of greek yogurt over regular yogurt or why it's so fucking trendy right now. Why would I want to pay more for something that tastes like spoiled milk that I need to sweeten to enjoy anyways?I'll just buy a fucking pint of regular vanilla yogurt.

ChaosCalix Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) I don't understand how people can be so complacent with their lives, things that happen within their lives, or things being "the way they are" in places they regularly go. Do some people genuinely not aspire to improve things around them to make their life more comfortable? Or are they afraid that by making a fuss, it'll only make everything more difficult?Complacency and Apathy just... don't make sense to me. If you want something less "angsty" and "serious": Fucking magnets, how do they work?

Skylar Husky Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I don't understand how people can continue to blame outside reasons for their own bad behavior. Just grow a pair and own up to it when you f*ck up! Magnets work because of the orbits of electrons around atoms. Anytime a charge (Positive or negative) is moving it gives off an electric field and a magnetic field. Look at an electromagnet. You pass a current through a tightly coiled wire and it becomes a magnet, same thing, a charge is moving around and around. If you want more information look it up online, I am sure there are animations and explanations about it. It involves a few physics and chemistry principles you guys should have been taught in school. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I don't understand how these radicals on Tumblr think their actions will improve anything, nor will I understand why they choose to complain about how their society is viewed. Like really, you people brought this upon yourselves. You knew what you were doing was wrong. Why do you choose to know complain about how you are seen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidhenearlahi Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) I'll never understand cynics and overly critical for the sake of being cynical, critical people. Not critics in general, I'm a critical person a lot of the time, but only ever towards things that I either love, or want to love. I always go into these things with an aura of optimism, I never hate something before I've seen it. And even after I've seen it, chances are I still won't outright hate it, even if I know it's terrible.I'm talking about people who have clearly made up their minds before they've even attempted to enjoy something. It comes off as nothing short of pretentious when all I ever see out of a person when they speak to me or post something online is some overly lengthy rant over the latest thing that they absolutely hate for a bunch of pretty subjective reasons that must mean that the problem is rooted entirely in the thing that they're critiquing, and that everybody who disagrees with them must just not be smart or aware enough to understand it well enough to hate it. I can understand not liking something that simply isn't to your tastes, but these people will go to crazy lengths to shame other people who enjoy said something.I'll also never understand people who choose sides in things so ultimately arbitrary as what console you choose to play video games on, or which comic book publisher you prefer.Both of these I'll never understand for the same reason, too. And that would be why on earth you would willingly and oftentimes aggressively deny yourself, and sometimes even try denying other people the enjoyment of so many things, usually on the basis that there is only one true and correct path to take, or choice to make.And honestly in the end it comes off as hilariously tragic to watch people like this flounder about with their depressingly overcritical, contrarian attitudes while the rest of the world around them is seemingly having a genuinely good time actually LIKING things.

ChaosCalix Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) What the fuck is th e difference between a lunar eclipse and a new moon This temporarily blew my mind.. until I googled it. New moons occur because of our changing viewpoint of the Moon; lunar eclipses occur when the Earth gets in the way of the light from the Sun and stops it hitting the Moon.New moons occur when the Moon is between the Sun and the Earth; lunar eclipses occur when the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon.Source: http://blogstronomy.blogspot.co.nz/2010/01/whats-difference-between-new-moon-and.html Edited October 1, 2015 by ChaosCalix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember...maybe schools really do suck ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vae Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 People who consider hate, anger, or strong distaste for something to be all-consuming. I don't know what some people do, but give me a little bit of credit. I can fucking multitask. I can hate something without letting it overrule or disrupt other parts of my life.Also, why people invest so much of their identity into something miniscule in scale, instead of just doing whatever the fuck suits their taste.Be it a subculture, an interest, whatever.

LazerMaster5 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I don't quite understand how Avenged Sevenfold went from a metalcore band, to a Maiden-esque shredfest, to somewhere in between, to a more generic metal sound. I understand that bands evolve over time, but I prefer City of Evil or their self titled album to Hail to the King. Still more consistent than Trivium, though.
