"What do you mean you don't want to hear the extensive history of outdoor warning sirens? There are so many models and companies and types and designs! No? Well... how about locomotives? No...? Shame."
Sounds like a YouTube video I'd love to watch.
Ha, I wish videos on that topic were more widespread. Nobody in the community is making that sort of thing, most of our videos are of siren tests and sirens we own. I do have a wiki site for sirens that's in depth though! https://civil-defense-sirens.fandom.com/wiki/Civil_Defense_Sirens_Wiki
Fun locomotive fact: In Egypt, many mummies were lost because they were used in locomotives instead of fuel do to then being dry and burned well.
"The industrial revolution and it's consequences..."
Being an introvert homebody and having to hint to coworkers that you'd like that dune bucket if they go see movie.
I haven't watched the movie but I thought it would be so much cooler to have it be the "pain box" Paul has to put his hand inside instead of a worm lol
Prove you're a human if you want the popcorn!
I haven’t watched the movie but I thought it would be so much cooler to have it be the “pain box”
We already have that at the theater. Its the Concession Stand cash register when you pay for the popcorn and drink.
This happened to me when my wife and I went out with a group of her friends and they brought up “sounding.”
OK well.. Idk what that is so... Here I goooo--!!
Edit: OK well I looked up the word and stopped at the entrance to this cave. Don't bother.
The normal amount in that case is not knowing anything at all
"Bro, c'mon, don't leave... you've only listened to 3 hours of my 10 hours dissertation on Lord of the Rings. What do you mean 'how's that relevant when we were talking about Skyrim?' - I need to make sure we're on the same wavelength before I start my 53 hour exposition on why The Elder Scrolls is a brilliant work of art."
ES lore can definitely lend itself to 53 hours of exposition
An Acquaintance: "Oh my goodness and they said that people could actually be living on Mars soon! Isn't that just neat-o?"
Me: Having watched enough hours of "Science Fiction and Futurism with Isaac Arthur" to qualify for a doctorate
Me: "Yep. Sure is super neat-o."
Science Fiction and Futurism with Isaac Arthur
How can I have read dozens of books by the guy and not know he did a TV show?!
Isaac Arthur, not Asimov. Though that is his namesake.
How can I have read dozens of books by the guy and then confuse him for another? Mea maxima culpa.
For anyone unfamiliar, "Science Fiction and Futurism with Isaac Arthur" is a prolific YouTube channel. He's cranked out dozens (if not hundreds) of hours about everything from building archologies on the moon, colonizing the surface of the sun, to settling what's left at the end of the universe. What that guy does is genuinely a public service and he's gotten awards for his work.

I had a half hour meeting with a coworker today. 2 minutes in, he mentioned he was thinking about building a new PC. Almost an hour later we decided we needed to start talking about the meeting topic.
Hey, have you guys heard about this Linux thing?
It’s GNU/systemd
Then you're acting casual but let slip 'oh that's the b type they use coaxial threading so won't deharmonize until you get upto 8000hz... uh, I mean yeah looks life it'll go real fast!'
Wait wait wait what? This sounds interesting. Please elaborate
