I highly recommend this beat poem.
[–]KShults 4 points5 points6 points 9 hours ago
That was absolutely fantastic. Will watch again later. Holy hell thanks for linking that.

Except when they started doing movies, and started having actual paranormal shit happen. I want to look it up and find out that they changed most of their writers, but I'm afraid that I'll find out that the whole "scooby-doo was about logic" thing is a bunch of bull.

he also is a comedian. but he does have a penchant for putting words together.
[–]Rule322 0 points1 point2 points 3 hours ago
I know he's a comedian, as well as good with words.
I posted these lyrics to try and make the two statements conflict, to comedic effect.

ah, I think I'm autistic online. I can never tell people's purpose from text. :(
sorry :)
It's hard to read an intention. I've found that trying to read it in different tones helps identify it.
If you're on reddit, you're probably bored, so you read comments in a bored and maybe even hostile manner, BEACUASE you feel like that yourself. Projection!

"Fuck me Sam, what are the odds that of history's endless parade of gods, the God you just happened to be taught to believe in is the actual one and he digs on healing,
"but not the AIDS-ridden African nations, nor the victims of the plague or the flood-addled Asians, but healthy, privately-insured Australians with common and curable corneal degeneration."
[–]TheTomAtkinson 3 points4 points5 points 6 hours ago
This story of Sam's has but a single explanation; a surgical God who digs on magic operations. No it couldn't be mistaken attribution of causation, born of a coincidental temporal correlation, exacerbated by a general lack of education vis-a-vis physics in Sam's parish congregation.
And it couldn't be that all these pious people are liars. It couldn't be an artifact of confirmation bias, a product of groupthink, a mass delusion, an Emperor's New Clothes-style fear of exclusion.

The amount of eyeliner is too damn high
[–]mansta330 2 points3 points4 points 6 hours ago
The logic is that most of his show is done from behind a piano, so he can only really emote with his face. It just kind of became a trademark stage look for him.
[–]moshbeard 0 points1 point2 points 9 hours ago
I didn't immediately like Tim Minchin but he's slowly winning me over.
[–]Prosopagnosiape 0 points1 point2 points 5 hours ago
One time i watched an episode with some kinda lava ghoul or whatever, and i was just waiting for it to end up with them ripping the mask off, because, come on, they know every ghost is a guy in a costume. Nope. Burned it to death.

My daughters would be very interested to know...about his eye makeup.

Fucking Rock God, he is.
So Fucking Rock.
[–]xanthippa 2 points3 points4 points 10 hours ago
Well, that really depends on your definition of 'magic': I have always taught my kids that 'magic' is a natural event/process the science of which we do not yet understand.
It neatly bridges 'stage magic' and other 'magic': all are natural processes/actions.
Just because we don't know how stage magicians perform their 'magic' does not mean these are somehow 'supernatural'.
If you brought an iPod to Ancient Egypt, it would be considered 'magic'.
Because people then would not understand the science behind it.
Same with the 'magic' we cannot explain.
Yet!
[–]SiS-Shadowman 2 points3 points4 points 7 hours ago
It seems to me that some people define magic as something we can't explain today and never will be able to.
However when I have kids, I will teach them the very same definition as you do.

"God [magic] is an ever-receding pocket of scientific ignorance that's getting smaller and smaller and smaller as time goes on." - Neil deGrasse Tyson
[–]ibanezerscrooge 0 points1 point2 points 32 minutes ago
I love this NdT quote and use it (or at least the idea, anyway) in response to "God of the gaps" arguments. A good follow-up to it is to ask the person to name one fact or "truth" that was once thought to have a scientific explanation, but was found conclusively, through study of religious texts and thought to actually be the work of the supernatural. It is indeed a one way street.
