multiplication tables are still taught, but take a back seat to understanding how multiplication actually works. It may be surprising to learn that memorization is a poor way to learn anything and also doesn't help you when you get to new problems not part of what you memorized. "Quick! What's 13*450??"

actual thought as a young child, regarding christian faith and prayer: "why does God need to be told how great he is all the time? Every single prayer has a line about this and usually several" Seriously though, why does he need a chorus of beings created solely to heap praise upon him? Why did he also create a…

were to* Stupid Kinja won't let me edit immediately after posting when I am supposed to have an edit window

I wonder if people like your ex ever question their faith when the rapture doesn't come or nice people who don't fit in their particular sect get left behind if it does

I never understood cock rings. They say it keeps the blood in your cock to keep you harder longer. Everytime I try one, it shuts off the blood going in, killing the boner immediately...

vanilluxe gets too much unwarranted hate. Yes, it's an ice cream cone...and exeggcute is a bunch of eggs. Who the hell cares?

I had to reverse my charge because my deadline for doing so was fast approaching and I still couldn't be sure that they were in fact going to fill the order

so spybot S&D wasn't part of the test? I am immediately questioning this test because it's not like it's a bit player in the anti-malware world...

I had nothing but bad experiences with solid-run. I tried to order a cubox from them. Not only did I not receive it 2 months after order it, they tried to pretend that they had notified me that it was backordered. The only communication I received from them was an order confirmation that said allow 2 weeks for…

do they get it on the floor enough that there's a noticeable puddle of half-dried pee in front of every toilet in the women's restroom?

not gonna lie...I'd put that in my butt. It has practical anal sex purposes such as knowing for certain you're clean down there so you don't have to douche

Its all about numbers, not considering the future of the product and therefore the future of those dividends. Investors believe more in balance sheets than a…

a bubbler is the word for a water fountain in some places, so probably always the latter

I am seeing a lot of Diocese on this list. Wouldn't that make them a church, not a company??

Christian Scientists believe that medicine and Christian Science prayer are incompatible, because they proceed from contradictory assumptions. Medicine asserts that something is physically broken and needs to be fixed, while Christian Science asserts that the spiritual reality is perfect and any belief to the contrary…
