Reply to comment by klonkrieger43 in All of us have direct ancestors who survived 5 global mass extinctions and outlived the dinosaurs by Arinupa

Right but an antivaxxer might say something about the strong surviving, dont mess with nature, etc. that argument works in the simplest sense, because it disregards any ancestors that arent direct ones as weak and irrelevant lol. Obviously its a flawed argument when you think critically for more than three seconds.

Reply to comment by ThonTaddio in Considering the size and age of the universe, there must have been a situation where atoms moved in a way so they recreated the shrek movie in 1920x1080 quality somewhere. by Rat_Ramsay

So it’s possible. Might even have already happened. In fact, in the deck shuffle per second scenario there is a microscopic chance it happens each second.

It like trying to explain Mean time between failures. If it’s a million hours then there is 1 millionth of a chance per hour that the failure occurs.

That's exactly how it was where I lived in the US, as a teen goth in the 90s... Though I think the bullying sounds like it's a lot worse these days.

If anyone ever tried to bully me, I didn't even care so they just moved on to someone else... Too bad the same thing doesn't work if someone is sexually harassing you.
