Thinking about that time I posted online that it was my last day of college classes so I could only get dumber from there on out, and someone I hadn’t talked to since high school wrote a reply in agreement and my response to them was “It’s like what Smash Mouth said: ‘Your brain gets smart, but your head gets dumb’”

Sabrina Carpenter not being a member of the Carpenters hits me like Ice Spice not being a member of the Spice Girls

It’s not from The Clone Wars series. It’s from Tales of the Jedi Season 1 Episode 5 “Practice Makes Perfect”.

Can somebody do some deep dive nuanced research to see if the oppressors truly had a change of heart or if they instead simply found it to no longer be beneficial to continue oppressing?

Could it be “Prayer”?

If you know what season it’s in, you can try looking up the soundtrack for that season and seeing what sticks out as a possible answer.

Also applies to many blue collar fields

You can view their removed comments in the modlog. I’m not licensed in psychology but I would think that to be an accurate diagnosis. I wouldn’t want to see this instability, hostility, and lack of candor in my forums.

Yep, both that one and another adblocker I use for a few days now. I tried yet another plug-in called something like Ad Block for YouTube that works with blocking the non-video ads but I’ve still been getting video ads with it that only play the ad’s audio with a plain black video screen for the length of the ad; spamming refresh on the page tends to bypass the video ad. Hopefully the plug-ins will adapt soon.

It’s from Andor

I’m omitting the phrase “It’s actually incorrect because” from this discussion since it’s not relevant.

“[T]hey would probably be fired at from their behind”

“be fired at” is a transitive verb phrase, so there are necessarily two related entities in this scenario: the firer and the target, the latter of which we know is “they”. Simply saying “be fired at from behind” could indicate that the firer is aiming backwards as a trick shot since it is ambiguous if “behind” refers to that of the target or if it instead refers to the act of firing; most people could figure out the meaning in context, but I prefer to avoid asking that from my audience. Since “be fired at from their behind” uses “their” as an appositive to refer to the entity or entities yet mentioned in the sentence, and the only one yet mentioned was the target (“they”), this clarifies that “behind” must refer to that of the target.

It’s also commonly, but not absolutely, considered grammatically incorrect to end a sentence with a preposition. “from behind” ends with a preposition, whereas “from their behind” ends with a noun (“behind” not meaning their buttocks but rather that which is located to their rear).

I was trying to get the comment posted before a particular time constraint, so I didn’t have time to locate a word that singularly refers to the area located to one’s rear.

I added the “their” to avoid suggesting that the shooter would be shooting backwards at them

It’s actually incorrect because they would probably be fired at from their behind

I see two possibilities:

1. You disbelieve the quote and you are using it as a counterexample. In which case, you consider the source to not be credible on the matter.

2. You believe the quote. In which case, you prove how people may believe what a prestigious scientist may say without critically examining it, even if the claim is contaminated by incredible magical thinking. This is precisely what the meme advocates against.

Neither of these scenarios contradict the meme.

Those two are not mutually exclusive nor contradictory. “Credibility” is a key word, in specific reference to information obtained from an individual through any medium. It’s possible to brand oneself as a scientist in a field and become a talking head without passing proper peer review and replicable results.

I really did not expect it to be so controversial
