You have to specifically buy foil with a coating, for this to be true. The cheapest foil is just aluminum, and the expensive is non-stick coated. So little rational thought being expressed today.

IAmA REQUEST: Someone that has personally witnessed an exorcism. by vectormessiahin IAmA

[–]mjpirate -1 points0 points ago

Claiming possession of a person's faculties by an entity with no proof of entity's existence, is a rather incredible claim.

This would require extraordinary proof, as it is an extraordinary claim.

If you presented a way to determine possession clearly and repeatable, then ran those tests, you might have room to talk about credibility.

As it goes, proof for possession and exorcism is spotty, biased, and often completely absent.

This all ignores the clear detriment exorcisms and the belief in demonic possession does to its adherents and their offspring.

Exorcism has been used as an excuse to surround and shout at people who are different from the group. It has been used in place of clear need(s) for medical attention, and miseducated religious people think they are doing something that helps.

I have a problem with any thinking process that requires you to ignore evidence (including doctor's advice) in the hopes that an imaginary invisible process is controlling everything, and will make it all right.

I have no solid proof you are being sodomized by a invisible pink unicorn in your sleep. I also have no solid proof this isn't happening. I do not assert silly irrational things, nor is it my responsibility to disprove them.

The responsibility lies with the person making the incredible claim.

The internal struggle of a fat stoner by villageidiot1991in trees

Dude, do what you want, you don't seem happy where you are at. I've lost 35 lbs since February with r/fitness and r/keto for ideas.

Repotting a Ficus by theroc1217_plantsin Bonsai

[–]mjpirate 1 point2 points ago

Also, please note we are entering spring/summer in the northern hemisphere. Those are your months where serious new growth occurs. Unless you're in a tropical environment, or using HPS lamps I don't think you'll get this kind of growth constantly.

[–]mjpirate 2 points3 points ago

If you're using rooting hormone after potting, why? Personally, I only use hormones on cuttings.

Have you been trimming and shaping the top also?

Normally the roots and top should be trimmed back during repotting. Another option is to plant it in a larger dish for growth and only put in the fancy dish for showing.

You can cut a lot of roots out of a ficus, typically.

You have options available, that don't require more than yearly repotting.

To Christians: Why can't you perform miracles? by MrMaloin DebateReligion

[–]mjpirate 0 points1 point ago

For whatever reason, yes.

When uttering gibberish, I consciously "think" of the sound of the entire structure and how the sound goes, mostly.

With glossolalia, after the induction period to the method - it is like a background program, you don't consciously think about structure, just sort of the intensity or loudness.

It's a neat trick, but little more.

First, sorry for the delay. At the time I first practiced it, I thought it was what had been purported to be, I believed it was a gift from "god". Now, having personally blasphemed every deity I have ever considered plausible or otherwise, I find it to be a novel trick of the mind. It still works/worked identically for me in either situation, sans belief...

Pancake mix made in a ketchup bottle, easy peasy squeezes into the fry pan, no mess! by actonesceneonein LifeProTips

[–]mjpirate 1 point2 points ago

Use a soup ladle, all problems solved. No fucking mess, and the kids can have crazy ass shaped pancakes.

Ketchup bottles or closed containers are not ideal for pancake batter.

Move on, the banter is the only interesting thing about this thread.

Does anyone know if there has been an attempt to rebuild the Titanic exactly as it once was and finish the voyage that it failed to complete? by flysfoin AskReddit

This is precisely what I came to post. Do we know the fate of this twin vessel?

I just pulled out all these eyelashe's in a single pluck. Should I go to the doctor? by d4rw1nin pics

[–]mjpirate 0 points1 point ago

I think you will be OK. I've pulled more in a go, when cleaning my eyelashes to keep them off my contacts. They re-grew for me.

If you really think you should go to a doctor don't let strange internet folk dictate your life, completely.

I used to believe in Christianity, and spoke in tongues. I can still speak in tongues, as an atheist. I don't think it's anything but glossolalia.

Who here actually support Rick Santorum? I want to hear from you. by TheSeeker00in AskReddit

Awesome, I'm on my mobile so it doesn't show me above your name.

My first complaint, is that this is a horrible argument. Claiming that the only alternative to christianity is islam; is false.

Nice to know, as it is [relatively] inexpensive and easy to make well.

Abandoned water tower smoke spot by ThePersianPrincein trees

You make a valid point for otherwise unsuspecting ents to be mindful of.

Thank you for that.

I believe there is light coming through the bottom of the tank, like drainage holes, as such air quality concerns should be negligible in this instance.

Why did Microsoft mess up Windows 8 so badly? I have it installed and I simply cannot use it. This article sums up a lot of the problems. by JDX3DSin technology

If you cared about security, would you pick windows in the first place?

Burger + Egg = <3 by guntz1092in trees

[–]mjpirate 1 point2 points ago*

While these two things mix together well, cooked separately, it is difficult to get these to cook together well. You would have to add the egg towards the very end of the burger's cook time (rare or otherwise,) and hope the burger has enough egg already in it to keep it bound during flipping &amp; shrinkage. Average burger cook time is about 10 minutes on high heat. Average egg cook time to over medium is about 4 minutes. Average patty will shrink too much or fall apart.

Awesome idea, nearly impossible to execute properly. Half the deliciousness of the egg atop the burger is that the yolk runs over everything else and sort of soaks in during the eating process. With this method the yolk's power is almost completely lost.

*edit: (5) and using RIF on mobile. fixing fragments.
