Don't call me Shirley

A healthy amount of skepticism is indeed important.

Some of them were too busy Dancing the Kung Fu.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I also question how fast their moves really were, as it's impossible to be fast as lightning.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (2 children)

And even if they were, how is that even a little bit frightening?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

So many thunderclaps!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You wouldn't be frightened by some literally physically impossible moves?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Hell no! I'd be stoked because that would be dope to witness!

[–] [email protected] 38 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Everybody that I'm referring to for the purposes of this song was kung fu fighting

[–] [email protected] 23 points 6 months ago (1 children)

From my understanding there were relatively as fast as lightning but clearly not literally.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago (1 children)

However, it's not hyperbole to say that it was a little bit frightening.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago (1 children)

They may, in fact, not have had true expertise.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Wasn't it more like not quite expert timing?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

I came to say the same. It's what I thought of when I saw it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

That's a walking Lemmy comment right there.

Ok, is no one going to mention that he is holding a smaller hand to adjust his sunglasses?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

On a closer look, the small hand is the guy behind him holding a phone to his ear

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Is it a different guy? Or is it a second smaller head behind his larger head?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

A valid interpretation of ambiguous photo. I suppose it's impossible to know for sure.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Came here for the tiny hand

[–] [email protected] 38 points 6 months ago (2 children)

AI image generators having to scrape stuff like this and somehow not come up with monstrosities

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Not sure if this is sarcasm or a reference I'm not getting, but just in case: It's not AI generated. I know this because the sign in the background is legible. The hand belongs to the woman to his right. The photo was taken right as he was lifting his hand to adjust/remove his sunglasses.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I think they were talking about AI being trained using this image. Like this dude got AI out here thinking people got hands on hands on hands.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

My bad. Having ADHD can screw up my reading comprehension pretty badly at times.

"An image of kung fu fighting, please."

Screen full of sunglasses and hands touching said sunglasses to put them better on the face with a face

What

[–] [email protected] 21 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Let's say for a minute, that hypothetically, everyone was in fact kung fu fighting. Now statistically speaking of course, this is impossible. Now hypothetically if they were, hypothetically of course. Now, would they all be performing the same so called Kung Fu move? Statistically speaking that is highly unlikely. This would also, hypothetically, be quite dangerous if it were to actually occur. Coming from a medical official, my wife, who is a doctor, she says that hypothetically, this would be dangerous. So, logically, this would not happen. So in fact, there is no way, impossible even, that everybody was Kung Fu Fighting.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

In my head you sound like Ben Shapiro.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It really depends on what group of people we're talking about, what if you were attending a kung-fu-con, then the odds of everybody kung fu fighting increases dramatically

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Except lightning travels at 270,000 mph, therefore it is literally impossible that their moves were "fast as lightning."

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

It still doesn't seem likely as someone has to man the Kung Fu merch stalls, organize the event, take tickets, etc. Perhaps some of these tasks could be combined with Kung Fu fighting, but all of them seem very unlikely.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

That's the speed of lightning in a vacuum, the speed of lightning in a dojo is significantly slower. In fact scientists believe that it can be brought to a crawl visible to normal human vision using a Tai Chi doping process. (Vacuum: Yes, i know)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Lightning travels much slower when it's doing kung-fu moves.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I really want to give you a wedgie for typing that

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

I stole it but I'll take the wedgie anyway.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

Now this is a conspiracy theory I can get behind
