So dumb.

Hour argument, that the final cliff fall scene in Predator 1 was two different jumps in the 2 cuts.

Can see in the first one he is rotating. Second cut is a straight plumb drop into the water.

How were the rotational moments counteracted?

They weren't, it's two different jumps/takes.

2 friends came up with some hair-brained arguments that you could stop rotating on the way down. (눈_눈)

The only way would be air resistance, and hands/arms is not going to be enough to create drag to counter the rotation.

Kinda related, I studied in Spain for a semester. Was taking with my fellow American roommate about the debate of if a tomato is a fruit or vegetable. Our host mom's daughter's boyfriend (Cuban, fwiw) overheard, and we told him about the "controversy" in the US but all 3 of us agreed it was a fruit. Host mom overheard us and asked what we were talking about, and the Cuban told her. "Well yeah, of course it's a vegetable"

I couldn't understand every word but when I could tell they were arguing about some vegetables having seeds or something like that I knew I spread something.

Someone on Bluesky last night mentioned Woody Allen for some offhand reason, and some sock puppet account was loudly defending Woody and saying he never did anything wrong and that Soon-Yin was never parented by him or anything like that. Imagine being a shill for Woody Allen of all people.

That time I had to teach math to Patrick Star.

Runner-up is trying to explain mathematics versus notation... to a math teacher.
