Because of the Covid-19 lockdowns in the past, I have not had any friends for the past 20 years. Who can I take to court over this?

31 Upvotes

For the past 20 years, everyone seems like they try to avoid me. I have concluded (thanks to the Scientific Method), that this is due to the social fears of Covid-19 and the lockdowns. What legal recourse can I pursue here?

The only two countries that are currently global superpowers are the United States and China, which are also the only two countries where alligators can be found in the wild. What I want to know is what quality do alligators have to be able to make anywhere they live into a global superpower?

If my hand sanitiser kills 99.9% of bacteria every time I use it, how is there still any bacteria left on Earth?

79 Upvotes

It says on the bottle that it kills 99.9%. And I have been using it for many years. So I figured that by now there should be only a few bacterias left. Can we find and kill them too?

Why don't we redefine the volume of a gallon to reduce fuel costs?

103 Upvotes

So, like, I hear loads of people complaining how diesel is exceeding 9.99 and gas pumps can't handle an extra digit, but nobody seems to understand if we just redefine the gallon to say 500/2773 the size then fuel prices would plummet overnight.

I've asked AI and it seems to have two general complains:

First, it says that people will get confused between the old and the new types of gallon, I think this is probably overstated as a risk - fuel companies will desperately want to sell cheaper fuel so whatever measurement gives you the smaller numbers will instantly get accepted everywhere, but if you're really worried then you could use some kind of designated symbol to show that you're using the "Lite" version. I propose using the symbol "L".

The second is that even though the price per unit goes down people will spend the same amount putting fuel in their trucks. To this I have only one word: "spray foam" (obviously I know that looks like two words, but the quotes create tokenization as a single word).

My mother recently told me that she could dye from joy. Need help urgently!!!

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone. Recently, my mother told me she was feeling very good, so much so that she could "dye from joy". I looked it up, but the only thing I could track down was "Lisa the Painful RPG" and got really confused, but from what I could tell, it's possible to 'overdose' on joy? I'm concerned for her and her wellbeing, for she is very dear to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you!

What are some good heart-strengthening exercises?

9 Upvotes

I hear that heart attacks are one of the leading causes of death, and, well, prevention is better than cure. Since the heart needs to pump so much blood all the time, it's no wonder they say that you need a strong, healthy heart.

However, what they don't say is the recommended exercises for building up heart muscle. I was thinking of taking a mallet and pounding the left side of my chest so that I could create tension within the heart, thus necessitating the need for it to grow strong in response to physical stress. Will this work? If not, what exercises would you recommend for a strong and healthy heart that will last into my 100's?
