Well, eventually that dog's either gonna bite her or get hurt. As the owner it is your responsibility to step in and make sure neither of those happen.

And if it bites her, might as well kiss it goodbye.

Grew out of it. If you're a picky eater, you should try to sleep cold and hungry more often.

Unfortunately that doesn't help everyone.

I'm dangerously underweight and whilst I wish I could be eating just as much stuff as other people, there's just so many things that are so unbearable for me to eat. (As in, gagging and whatnot)

As for the topic question, yeah I'm a picky eater, wish I wasn't though.

I usually say actor as a force of habit, but sometimes I catch myself and say actress.


How do you ever get into a force of habit like that?

Well, if you've grown up simply knowing 'actor' as gender neutral, then it would be force of habit to refer to any actor as an actor.

Actor.

Granted, I would still use terms like policeman, fireman, postman, etc for females of those occupations.

I always was of the belief/understanding that the base term was genderless/undefined, whereas actress can only be used for female actors. (But doesn't have to be used)

Officer, Firefighter, Femailman, etc.

Might also be cultural.
The fact "boys in blue" also refers to policewomen probably shows how little Australian language cares about gender specific words.
Although I will admit, I hear fierys and firefighters used waaaay more often than 'fireman'.

(I'm not American so don't know how many states you lot do have but...)

I feel like the topic title is trying to be sneaky, "got separated into 3 different states" can mean A) you now have +2 states or B) California has been split into three, and those three were absorbed by other neighbouring states (so -1 state).

I THINK America has 51 states? That number sounds familiar... So I'm guessing 53. Since that's 51+2.
But then the poll wouldn't have the "51+3" trick answer, so....?

I'm not from America, so not sure how well the drinking water there is.

But some places in Australia have horrid drinking water, so it's pretty much advised to buy bottled water.

Places such as Tassie, even have flammable tap water.

This is not only wrong, but laughably so.

If you can demonstrate damages incurred, it doesn't matter if they were incurred by way of a prank, you would still have grounds for a lawsuit.


People have even sued dead people before for committing suicide.

How tf does that work?

Just as a guess, emotional trauma from witnessing or discovering the suicide.

Funny. I coulda recall someone on PotD mentioned traveling once and a gas station attendant freaked out when he/she started filling up the tank on his/her own. I think it was specially a place with harsh winters.

...wait, is that not the norm in America? As an Australian, I've never seen a petrol station where you didn't have to fuel the thing yourself.
You fill it, then enter the building and pay. They don't ever step outside unless an issue arises.

Two holes.

Logic being:

If you had a piece of paper, and there was a hole in it. Sure the hole goes through both 'sides' of the paper, but it's still one- oh...

So one hole! Wait but then what about the ball example!? D:

"No, I'm actually surprised" also is iffy since it means you can't pick that if you didn't know but expected it.

Honestly, with what happened in Australia recently there's probably more evidence towards this being not too infeasible.


Its like the tide pods thing though

Theres a good chance of the extremely rare instances of something like that happening are actually inspired by the BS news coverage

Given the whole multi-state wide recall, political bipartisanship and swift changes to laws relating to such acts, I think what happened in Australia is a tad more than just fear mongering and people inspired by the news.
Granted a lot of copycat scenarios popped up to mimic the original person's tampering.
I think there was about 30 confirmed cases of hospitalisation, and 100 supposed cases of tampering found and reported. Sadly people for some reason started to make fake reports. <<
