First time I saw the Jurassic park I thought no way would intelligent people just run around a huge and therefore dangerous Brachiosaurus or jump out of the car and run right to the ill Triceratops. That would be Darwin’s award kind of madness.
Then I studied biology, got to know some zoologists and paleontologists, and yeah, this is exactly what would happen.
People learn all the time. The fact that you are already familiar with something doesn’t mean everyone is. Please don’t be unkind.
Explain that to the insurance company.
The female characters in the Simosons wear the same clothes all the time as well, now that I think about it.
And while we’re at it, I think Naegleria fowleri, the brain eating amoeba that lives in warm water and gets in through your nose should get an honorable mention!
Prions - yeah, they’re definitly creepy. They’re also hard to destroy, so they can accumulate in nature over time.
These are nasty, but I still find rabies the most scary
That explains my life.
I always wash the fecal matter in my pockets very carefully - glad to hear my personal hygiene is passable.
What’s up with the downvotes? Are we on .ml?

The comment section’s turned into a very diverse music recomendation platform and I’m here for it!
Ok, this one works on me.
I think they just see it as very simple: killing innocent babies - no, killing evil criminals - yes. It sounds perfectly alright if you don’t think about it too much.
Wait, how should I anthropomorphize them? I also thought they wanted to eat the butterfly, is that the wrong way to look at it? I find them very cute.
I agree. But you can say turn to the right and people connect the clockwise movement of the wheel with the direction of the car, which makes it possible for people to understand each other’s instructions intuitively even if they use right-left terminilogy instead of the precise clockwise-counterclockwise one.
It doesn’t matter where you hold the wheel. When you’re turning right, you’re always doing the right movement for tightening a screw, no matter the hand position. That’s the point.
The starting point is on the top.
I think that would be great - if people were incapable of lying. As it is, the candidate with the most people-pleasing program (true or not) would win and you wouldn’t be able to check their past activities to see whether they’re trustworthy at all.
