Been watching Scrubs 20 years after it came out and I wonder how JD is gonna screw this up. He'll probably say something stupid.

A scenario in which you're offered a coin flip wherein you either win $125 or lose $100 is interesting in that my answer would depend on how many times I got to take the bet. If it's once- not much worth the gamble. Same with twice, three times, etc...

Quote tweet.

Quoted post text begins:
An MIT professor offered his class a coin flip: win $125 or lose $100. Most students said no. Then he proved refusing was the smart move, and it explains why you're bad with money.
The bet is a steal on paper. Flip a coin, win $125 or lose $100. Do the math and you come out $12.50 ahead on average. It's what economists call a more than fair bet. Most of the room still turned it down.
They weren't being dumb. They were being human.
...

Quote tweet text:
I'd literally take this bet everyday, all day for the for the rest of my life.

EV=.5(125)+.5(−100)=+$12.50

No MIT student should be refusing this WTF. Imagine getting a 50% probability on something that is priced at 44.

People keep saying "Killmonger", and nobody recognizes Senator Stern for pointing out that a drunk military contractor galavanting about in a miniature flying battleship, which by law would belong to the DoD anyway, is less than ideal.

I guess it's a sign of how out of touch I've gotten that apparently there was a movie last year called Ella McCay, had a bunch of big names in it, bombed at the box office, but got people to try and replicate that pose, and I heard nothing about it. Also, apparently that's not Anne Hathaway?

I was actually rather pleased with myself for thinking of calling DRC "Doctor Congo", but it turns out a bunch of other people thought of it first.

Now Abel was a tiller of the ground, and Cain was a tiktoker. In the course of time Cain brought the Lord a video of Fortnite dances, and Abel brought to the Lord an offering of GMO brussel sprouts. And the Lord had regard for Abel and his offering, but for Cain and his offering he had no regard.

Reading the Wikipedia write-up and found this gem of a plot twist. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forsake...

Except from Wikipedia for "Forsaken":

Next Generation said in its July 1998 issue that the N64 version was "solid, enjoyable stuff with not a hint of originality to cloud the fun"; and called the PlayStation version "a decent title. Probe has mixed together the best elements of Descent and Quake and added some pretty tricky enemy AI, resulting in a game that shines, although in slightly different ways, on each platform." An issue later, the magazine called the PC version "a good game that will provide a nice distraction until players get their hands on the big guns like Sin, Half-Life, and Duke Nukem Forever."

Tbf, while Germany is geographically as far from Greece as a good chunk of Africa (and certainly closer than the British Isles like half the cast), Kruger isn't a bad match for descriptions and art I've seen. Still, for true authenticity, she would've needed another 25 lbs and a big ol bushy unibrow

I remember seeing this hilarious post with a screenshot of Diane Kruger from 2004's Troy saying "This is what Helen of Troy looked like," as if that was supposed to be a documentary. Really have to hand it to these jagoffs for picturing modern Germans when asked to envision ancient Greeks.

Taking the opportunity to say that this idea has been abused to the extent that seeing someone express it makes me assume that they are a baby brain who either cannot interpret art, cannot imagine how even the most blunt message can be misconstrued by other baby brains, or just need to touch grass

Why doesn't Superman just throw Doomsday into outer space? He can't fly, and space is so big that he wouldn't ever land anywhere. Is he stupid or something?
