I wear perfume as a man, why do we have to smell tough? What if I want to smell like flowers and fruit? lol

No. Binary is a mathematical concept that refers to 2 sets. Nothing is stopping you from creating a "true binary" system consisting of just 3 and 4, or even defining the state of a door (open/closed)

Maybe electromagnetic attraction, but he's clearly talking about gravitational attraction, which is physics.

Sex Panther® is a cologne which is illegal in 9 countries.
It is also made from bits of real panthers.
60% of the time, it works every time.

Well let’s see - there was that time when I was 17 and I fell asleep in the fast lane on a freeway in SoCal, I woke up when my wheel bounced me off the center divider, which caused the very full ashtray to explode in a huge ash and butt plume, and I somehow gained control of the car (my mom’s!), pulled off the freeway at the next exit, got out expecting to see the driver’s side smashed up and….nothing. Not a scratch. Pretty close to dying, and pretty damn lucky I didn’t. Was wide awake the rest of the hour drive home. But had to explain why the front seats were covered in ash and butts the next day.

Nope. Muscle is denser than fat. So the more muscular you get the more attractive you are, which is generally true

Attraction certainly makes me get physical

I would say zero and not zero.
If you can just say one and ignore the infinite numbers between 0 and 1 then you can zero and 32 are binary as well cause its one or the other. Zero and non zero seems more accurate

That's a good one. I once almost walked right into a speeding truck.

I don’t know, being narrowly saved from a rip current by my old man sure was cutting it close

There was this question some time ago about statistics you'd like to see at the end of your life and this was my favorite. Those times that maybe someone only just saw you overtaking them and they didn't pull over into you at high speeds.

They are both part of the same science thing.

I wasn’t feeling well one day so I went to the ER. They did a CT scan of my abdomen and found a massive clot in the artery or that goes to my liver. Fortunately, my body created a new pathway around the clot so I was okay, but I was put on an anticoagulant to dissolve that one, as well as two others that were found in my leg.
It all worked out but it just amazes me to think about how close I was to having something seriously wrong. And I had absolutely no idea it was happening. I’m quite convinced that if I hadn’t had a random stomach ache that night, which was completely unrelated to the clots, I’d be dead right now.
