14:08, the real reason manhole covers are round is because that makes it impossible to accidentally drop the cover through the hole no matter how it's oriented.
Ok but what if it was a quadrilateral
@@clashthereaper2744 Then you could drop it in along the diagonal of the figure.
Daddy shaym how you doing
in the UK man hole covers are actually square...
Interesting fact about manhole covers.
A man hole cover became the fastest recorded man made object ever launched on earth.
"In what ways do you feel you need to change or grow?" Apparently this is a surefire question to spot a narcissist because they think they're perfect and don't need to change or grow.
Or if they're immature cause you know what will "grow"

“What was the last thing you did that gave you child-like joy”
Damn, didn’t know that can be a trigger
Well mom got me a tiny stuffed unicorn today.....
In the past I too would find the question triggering. I just don't remember the last I felt that way. But now I find it oddly comforting. It's because I recently got very sick and terribly bedridden. I thought I was going to die. But my family never failed to take care of me, especially my mom who is an extremely busy person. But my favorite part was that I got to hold the hands of my mom, my dad, and all three of my siblings, two of which are boys who I've never seen so worried. I'm 23 btw, but the illness somewhat reduced me into a child who wanted her hand held, and my family readily did it for me. It was the closest I felt like a child in years. And it genuinely made me happy.
haha same ,, i dont remember any of my childhood
Finding rocks
Okay, it's blog post time. The last time I felt real, childlike joy was when I found fossils.
So I'm way into dinosaurs, enough to want to go into Paleontology as a career. But, for years, I've been procrastinating and blowing it off. A couple summers ago, a guy gave me permission to dig on his property for free, on the condition that he decides what fossils I keep and what ones he takes for his rock shop. So, I dug, and found a lot of fossils, and it was a blast. The downside is, I have no idea what to do with all these fish, lol. I could have stayed in that desert for days and never gotten bored, though.
It was actually the first little push I gave myself to actually start going to college. I've been accepted at the local community college for this Summer. Cross your fingers for me, internet people.
The longboard story is pure wholesomeness and joy.
What is a longboard?
@@jamesa.holman2634 It's a type of skateboard
@@jamesa.holman2634 it’s basically like a table but a table with wheels on it
@@jamesa.holman2634 it's a longer skateboard generally used for cruising and traveling. It's easier to use and cruise around on than a regular/shortboard.
It is 🥺
Mine is weird, but I like to ask "do you believe in ghosts?". If they do, it leads to sharing paranormal experiences. If no, it leads to conversations about religious beliefs
Good one
That’s funny cause I’m religious and I believe in ghosts, actually in the state that i used to live in , they used to be a lot of paranormal activity and a lot of people would experience ghosts
I think it's quite easy to be a religious person and believe in ghosts.
@@hayleybartek8643 yeah
I like this question
Man the "last time you felt childlike joy" is a tough one for me because I am both dead inside, and I laugh myself into the early stages of a heart attack on nearly a daily basis because I am big on simple humor.
I I think the manhole cover is round so it doesn't fall into the hole
That is correct, I wonder what that guy would do if the person already knew the answer, seeing as it seemed he wanted to see someone was willing to ask for help.
The cover is round because the hole is round. Duh!
Yep. The circle is the only shape that cannon fall into itself. Ovals, squares, triangles, diamonds, etc can all be turned or twisted such that they will pass through an equally sized and shaped void, but the circle cannot.
heresjohnno Then you haven't tried hard enough. Plus the outer circle is big enough....!
@@Fimbulvinter19 In the UK they're squared
A friend once asked, "are you a beach person or a mountain person?", because according to her you're one or the other. Beach people are extroverts, mountain people are introverts. Beach people love spring and summer, mountain people love autumn and winter. Beach people love dogs, mountain people love cats. And so on. Now I can't stop thinking about that.
thats a pretty good one
Well, I'll say I'm a beach person but the only thing I don't check off is being a extroverted person.
I fit the mountain person perfectly, I don’t like talking to people, i love cold weather (in Florida), and I love cats
I love the mountains.
But I like the desert
You always want to ask someone if they're nice.
If they respond "oh yeah, I'm super nice I do all these kind things all the time!" It means their kindness isn't done from out of their heart, but out of their desire to be recognized as a "good person" and accepted as a "good person."
While on the other hand if they respond,
"Yeah I try to be nice." Or "I like to think I am, but also I can be mean..." Or "hopefully I am, idunno." Those are just some genuine real people, chill, and kind when it matters the most.
And finally if they respond
"Nah bro I'm a douche bag lol."
Could be a good drinking friend, but definitely if that person is capable of giving proper constructive criticism, listen to them. They will be brutally and extremely honest. Ignore the hurtful things they say, and listen to the deeper meaning or suggestion, you'll learn some real shit about yourself.
I find myself of two minds in that regard, I like to be nice at times, but there are also times when I will feel great joy being an absolute ass. Then there are the times I'm unconsciously an ass.
Nah I'm a rude person
@@blairbuskirk5460 So you're just an ass all the time, cuz you consciously know you get pleasure out of being nice, if that's the case, is it a true nicety that you're doing if you know you will feel good after?
Being Good is NOT always being nice. Being Nice is NOT always being good. Between the two, I try to be Good... Nice people tend to be fake and I have little patience or time for BS.
...AND once in a while, I allow myself to be a total asshole for no good reason (and hardly an excuse) just to feel normal. ;o)
Do you specifically use "nice" or is it interchangeable w "good"?
I always thought asking people what their favorite song/artist is was super revealing. You can tell so much about a person's life and personality from that. I always dread those questions.

No, it’s from JoJo. It’s originally Jotaro’s stand cry and then all the JoJo stand cries except for Giorno Giovana’s Gold Experience (spoiler) and Gold Experience Requiem and (Spoiler) Tusk Act 1-3, except 4, 4 had the stand cry, “ORA!” In this case, the correct answer would be, “MUDA!” Because it’s DIO’s The World (ZA WARUDO!) stand cry, vampire trying to kill Jotaro. Once again, the answer could have been a text with only spaces, or SHI BO BO BO BO (for Killer Queen), a space with only texts (Spoiler, All of Pucci’s stands), MUDA/Muda da Muda! (For Diego’s Scary Monsters, or MUDA MUDA MUDA! (Spoiler AU Diego’s The World), or something else (stands in part 8) in short, it’s a JoJo reference, and there isn’t a real answer, however, MUDA would have been the safest.
Terry Pratchett had one that came up often in one of his stories: "Your house is on fire. What is the first thing you take out?" It tells you exactly what someone values, what they consider important.
I read that as “Your HORSE is on fire. What is the first thing you take out?” and I was super confused and just kept wondering “What am I suppose to take out of my horse?”

Sometimes people get sick of other people's BS and fakeness. They eventually realize it's time to reciprocate the same energy they received.
True. I give shallow answers to shallow questions. What counts as a shallow question to me is a random person asking a deep question about family or myself at random "I'm bored, need to talk, entertain me" moments when I'm in a busy or compromised position instead of when we have all the time in the world to converse. Mostly a workplace annoyance.
14:30 The reason that they're round is that circles are the only shape that won't fall into their own hole. Thank you Adam Savage, for teaching me that. You the real MVP.
I had my childhood ruined by google today through researching myth busters and I don’t feel good about it :/
@@soursaturnanimates2951 why? Other than imahara dying which was pretty sad
I don't understand how this is. As long as the top layer of the cover is a bit larger than the bottom, none of the shapes should fall into their own hole?
@@Strawberriezrule13 I guess also the other benefit is that people aren't triangle or square shaped. But who knows ┐(´∀｀)┌
@@Strawberriezrule13 a square cover will fall into a square hole when the two corners are lined up diagonally with the hole, even if the hole is slightly smaller
No, do you know how many groups I've been in where the Icebreaker is what's your favorite color and me a black girl says the color white and everybody looks at me like something's wrong
I'm a writer and an artist...nothing gives you more pleasure than seeing a fresh blank page...
White is peace and purity. A combination of all other colours (except black which is the absence of light/white) it is a truly beautiful colour but mine would be a hot pink with a splash of deep purple to it splashing forth from the pure blindingly brilliant white and cascading downwards into spiraling concentric circling blue green red orange yellow back into the white from whence it came!
people are weird, mine is blue
@@sammaloney1746 I mean technically white is also the absence of color. If you mix primary color paints together, you get a dark brown that is very close to black. Black is the only color you can't paint over with anything other than white and even then it takes *effort* to not just end up with grey.
@@chaincat33 Paint are created and I'm sure a paint could be created to change black to red or blue or whatever
@@sammaloney1746 I mean technically yes, if you keep adding any color you eventually dilute the black until it's not there anymore. But you will use a LOT of paint doing that. Black does not play nice with other paints. Even a single drop will darken the color by a surprising amount.
"How's your partner/how's [partner's name]?" Their answer will tell you a lot about how they regard/treat their partner. Do they say "s/he's fine", then shift the focus to themselves? Do they unload a list of their partner's latest failings? Do they light up and speak with warmth/admiration/affection? All of those responses will give you an insight into how they regard and treat the people they can be themselves around, and hence about who they really are.
Kinda seems like it'd hit a roadblock real soon if they just said "Don't have one."
@@diddlypoop fr me too
I think that’s a nice concept, but it wouldn’t for someone like me. I usually reply that he’s fine, but it doesn’t mean that I love him any less. In fact he is my best friend. I’m just a private person. But very loving and adore helping people etc.
Me: what partner? I don't have one
Or if they aren't comfortable telling their partners business to someone else without their permission.
The lottery thing, one thing I learned is first you disconnect your phone and/or get a burner phone, then get a financial advisor, claim the prize, *change your name / move somewhere as in most states you have to disclose your face so at least move to another state (better yet move abroad if that's your cup of tea). ONLY tell people you 100% trust to keep your location a secret otherwise only meet in some kind of false location like a cheap apartment. HIRE A LAWYER because people are gonna try and sue you for some of your money on some way shape or form. Hire a security firm (if you won over 5 mil) so anybody who would wanna kill for inheritance or just rob you will be deterred.
@Chris Williams in most states yes
@Chris Williams Yeah, that is why I would legally change my name after claiming and cashing the prize. There would be way too much attention and room for possible murders, kidnappings, and robberies.
First thing I am buying if I win the lottery or somehow aquire a shitton of money is a Lamborghini aventador. Second thing is a large plot of land in the woods
First thing I’d do is buy a big plot of land for my family and build a house and farm on it so they can be self sufficient. After that, I’d give the rest away. Maybe buy a used Tesla (it’s that safest car) for my family, and save a little money for my future business, but the rest of my money I’d give away to charity. I don’t need it
@@PliskinYT yeah that fucking sucks if people win that money only for the fucking news to let every type of person in your radius or city know your identity
Swelp me, but seems like "What Question Can You Ask That Will Reveal Someone's TRUE Personality?" is a great question for just that purpose. I've learned quite a bit about the priorities of the folks answering that question in the video...
Yeah, exactly. Personally I thought many of these questions were just lame :/
I hate interview questions because I’m very private to people I don’t know and don’t want to say the wrong thing. Once I get to know you a bit I open up and become a book.

Btw, you can’t honestly understand anything about anyone from a single question. Take your time and actually get to know them.

@@zillasaiyan1m274 another thing to achieve the same end is having the power to enter video games and movies and comics and the like. Then just find a point when it's in a weak location and nick the cosmic cube or the infinity gauntlet, maybe nick some vibranium or adamantium, I want to be a jedi so ill go grab a lightsaber. possibilities are endless.

Surprisingly Works everytime, was on a date where we sat in silence for 20 mins for her to think of an answer the first question.

@@zaeyact Mhmmmm
I see, your statements are to be noted
Do they tend to take revenge? Are they physical? A lot of stuff to tell. Also look at their dating history and how they view their past relationships as well. Someone who has a record of dating toxic people and keeps doing that means they prob have a hard time getting rid of bad habits. Also the way they view their relationships tells u just what they're hypocritical about. Do they get in bad relationships and blame their partners rather than themselves for not noticing their bad pattern and constantly dating such people? Then yeah

Ok but when I worked at a grocery store getting carts was the best. You escape the chaos of the register, and get to have some peace outside by yourself. If the weather is nice leave the cart wherever, if the weather sucks please return it.
Arbitrarily asking "How's life?"during one on one, because it's different from other greetings the usual first response is "wdym?". The next part is to just reiterate the question, and emphasise that there is no right answer. People tend to just be weirded out by getting a deep question and reply like any other greeting. You won't get much out of them, however the ones that take the question a little more seriously are the ones most open towards you. You get a better insight of them, and if you keep the habit of using this alternative greeting you can regularly strengthen relationships whilst maintaining the ones who don't reciprocate by making the at first awkward moment into a regular occurrence that became a quirk. Eventually everyone has a moment of weakness and will take this question seriously. This question is like sprinkling water on seeds, some sprout immediately like magic and others either bloom late or never will. This greeting is perfect in that it gauges a person's interest in you whilst simultaneously opening an opportunity for discussion.
If you were to ask me 'How's Life' in place of a greeting, then I'd reply with "Numb, and you?"
@@Dots_The_Demon_Lord then I'd say "same" accompanied by a sigh before switching to something more upbeat such as a passion hobby. A simple acknowledgement of each other's situations goes a long way, no need to dwell on dower thoughts when you can enjoy life. Short replies get short responses, whilst in depth answers require a deeper conversation.
@@lazylazerrsp8781 Your answer was something, I predicted, especially the last part
How's life?I was surprised by the question, my immediate response was, interesting.
I once participated in a lotto pool with five coworkers going for a rather large amount of money. In the hundreds of millions, though I don't remember the exact number now. Just for shits and giggles, I sat down and tried to figure how much the things I wanted to do should we win would cost. Even after paying off my loans and debts, buying a brand new mid-range car, a nice little house, a vacation to New Zealand, a shopping spree, Hamilton tickets, paying off my parents' mortgage, buying my sister a MacBook and a car, adopting a dog and a cat, and donating $2000-$5000 to various charities and organizations I support or have been a part of, I hadn't even scratched half a million. What would I have done with all that money? It baffles me that there are people out there who actually have that much money and MORE. What do they do with it?! Eat it? Wipe their asses with it?
Use it to make more money and ruin the lives of everybody beneath them
Use cash instead of toilet paper, you'd be saving some for the poor
Hoard it while fighting tooth and nail in order to avoid giving even the tiniest amount of it away despite having enough to last them 200 lifetimes.
You don't become a billionair without being a slimy parasite on society.
I'd start a company
They have it in investments and estimated values of their businesses. Most millionaires and billionaires I imagine never see their personal bank account go over half a million at a given time since so much of their income has to go into taxes and supporting their businesses to keep making money and keep their employees making money, or investments to boost their passive income from dividends and riding the stock market. Of course, that doesn't preclude them using business expenditures on personal purchases, and you always have the scummy parasites on society who just scrooge their money. But those people are the ones we hear about, since they only got there by building cults of personality
For romantic interests, ask why it didn't work out with their ex. You'll find out what's waiting for you.
Great way to destroy your dating prospects.
But that's if you even believe them. Most people will lie or tweak the truth to make themself look better than they are and their ex seem worse than they were. To be closer to the truth would be to ask them AND their ex why they broke up. And the answer is somewhere in the middle.
How they speak about their ex tells you a lot. If they only blame their ex that means they don't asume responsabilty for their actions. If they compare you with their ex that means they are not over their ex and you are more of a rebound. They want your attention...
I ask: Do you see jealousy as love?
For starters: What people say, what people do, and what people say they do are three entirely different things
The person who had, "a little imagination" with the freezer penguin needs to be put on a watch list or something.
Tbh, that was going to be my response too. Not so in-depth, but about the same. Penguins can be used for almost anything, there's only your morality, ethic code, and government stopping you at that point!
The lottery question doesn't really work if you ask me.
A friend of mine once answered that he would not work anymore if he won the lottery to instead just enjoy life. Meanwhile he already has enough money to make it count as a "lottery win" in the first place, easily making it possible to do whatever he likes for the next 300 years, yet there he is working 60h weeks.
Asked for their dreams people will more often than not create visions they don't really would want to be true if they are honest.

Re the "how did your last relationship end?" question.
Even though it's illegal in the UK to ask about marital/relationship status, or whether you have/want kids, in an interview, many women are still asked these questions. I've been on the receiving end of such questions, and a few years ago, one potential employer asked, when they spotted my wedding ring "what does your husband think of you applying for a nightshift position?" I replied "you'd need to ask his ashes - he died in 2012." The look of sheer mortification on the interviewer's face was priceless. I then informed them that under UK legislation, it was illegal to ask relationship questions because it is classed as discrimination. Told them I didn't think the job was for me if this was how management worked, and ended the interview. Two days later, I received an email offering me the position. I turned it down with a reply similar to my interview, suggesting HR look at their interview process.

@@justahuman9273 it'll only be awkward if you have no idea how to transition to the subject. In fact ANY question will be awkward if you ask it in an unrelated conversation or don't transition into it properly.
For example, it wouldn't be awkward if the conversation was already steered toward cleaning. Which is absolutely a subject that should come up at some point, especially in a romantic relationship. If it doesn't... You or the person you are talking to probably aren't very clean people.

You could learn if the person is:

-what their priorities are
-if they've thought about it before
-how spontaneous and deep their character is (if they say 'oh I dont think about that stuff', I'm usually no longer interested in them)
Nice question, I actually did ask this one myself, to myself. To me, there is no particular meaning, as we've appeared by chance and we still exist by chance. We instead have to use what we have around us to create our own meaning, objectives and goals are pointless if we feel like a greater authority imposes them onto us. Only when through blood and sweat we pursue them it is that we actually know that getting there will make us happy.
Winking is a deliberate action. Blinking is automatic, it happens without you thinking about it. So Mike both blinks and winks, just like everyone else, it all depends on whether he means to wink or not.
I thought blinking was two eyes and winking one eye. I can't imagine winking with both eyes. I "wink" with both eyes (according to your def) when my eyes don't feel clear after sleep or something. And if I blinked with one eye I would be concerned about paralysis or there'd be a hair in my eye. Maybe that part, blinking an object out of the eye, is the grey area. Cuz that could be mistaken for a wink (cue movie joke scenarios)
@@ocdplaylistmaker7032 I didn't say it was the ONLY definition, but the difference between being deliberate (as in proper WINKING) was the only difference that was important to the discussion at hand at that moment.

Sup, wanna have a chat?

I've actually been asked the manhole cover question when I did work experience in school, at the end of the week the company I was at got me to do their questionnaire for prospective employees and that was one of the questions. Being 16 I had no clue what the correct answer was so I just figured it was better to not be wrong than to not answer, so I wrote 'because the hole is round'. They said no one had ever answered with that before and they offered me a job once I finished school if I wanted it.
The main reason is that the circle is one of the only shapes that cannot fall in on its self, potentially hitting poeple below
I have to admit, I’ve asked this question of anybody who has ever worked for me (lottery question) and I can instantly tell they won’t be with me long as their heart ain’t in what they’re doing if they list that they would spend their days doing other work (instead of a hobby).
My answer is ‘nobody would ever see me again. I’d be in Paris tomorrow, on a new motorcycle heading through The Alps and then probably through Asia. Then I’d fly to South America, buy a different bike a ride through the coastlines around the entire damn continent.
I should probably be writing adventure guides... Not sure how I land that gig, though (and my cat would probably hate it).
My answer would be something like: first, invest in stocks, advance science and technology by funding world changing tech, use my investments as a form of influence, along with the science and technological revolutions, and whilst doing this, being sure to supply other much less fortunate people with as much as I possibly could, I would try to educate the world of the ways of Christianity, and educate them in more technical areas, such as math, science, and language, also I would try to make one world-wide language, I would make sure to take breaks, and to have good people surround me, and I would give the glory of the good works and things, unto God.
I once discussed this with a classmate, he said he would drop out and buy seven cars, one for each day of the week, and I said I’ll just be in school my entire life studying different subjects I’m interested in and never have to work, or I’ll just be a youtuber because I have the money to support myself and take a chance in the career that I want but is too risky
@@izthistle6196 I spent the first 37 years of my life studying everything. These days, I think I’m good. I’ll never stop taking classes here and there (currently taking piano), but I’m more into experiencing personal connections.
Kinda wished I had prioritized those before I managed to piss off the bulk of my social network by never being available. 😓

There's no harm in being honest. If that's what makes you happy then do it. It's ok to be selfish sometimes. (not too much tho)

Mine is the nigersaurus. Purely for the meme value.
Ask, "Hi. How are you? what's your name?"
If they tell you their name, but then don't ask you what your name is, they could care less.
I have established this strange mechanism of replying straight back with "[Insert Object], what about you?"
I don't understand how can someone not reply back... I wouldn't be able to sleep if i did lol
I realized this when i met a few people a few days ago. However I think they didn't ask me for my name back cause the guy that introduced me to them probably told them my name :/
Idk sometimes I just expect them to go "nice to meet you _ I'm _" after I say my name.
Just cause I don't immediately ask their name as well after giving mine, doesn't mean I'm not interested or don't care.
I have selective mutism. I'm interested in people, but I struggle to talk. It probably comes off as rude or egocentric when I only answer questions, and don't bother asking anything back, but I actually love listening to people. I always hope that they're extroverted so they'll just keep talking without me asking lol
The one about the fav dinosaur, guaranteed that guy is planning to become a history teacher solely to be able to deny history ever happened on a professional level to children who don't know better and can be more easily manipulated into believing the 6000 year old Bishop Ussher chronology.
Why can't they teach both? Well I say teach. I mean- There was a professor who allowed discourse between students on this and the college was fine with it until Freedom From Religion got involved. There needs to be discourse. Otherwise dogma happens, and only one side is shown. If there's nothing to the 6000 year position, shouldn't the students find that out for themselves? I don't agree with either position being solely shown.
Second, no true Young Earth Creationist believes that dinosaurs never existed, and/or that the fossils are fake. These people say this in order to feel like their faith is defensible by explaining away evidence, but there's no need
I've also never heard anyone claim history as a whole never existed. This also goes against Young Earth Creationist positions, and literally the Bible itself since it gives details on past events. Basically the guy either doesn't like to think, or the Redditor is confused/mispresenting/misremembering/mixing up different events.
Usshers chronology is generally adhered to but there is not a strict adherence to 4004 BC- there is a margin of error depending on a few factors. But it hangs around 6000 years. That's the only similarity this guy has with YEC's.
But I agree- this guy should not be teaching kids because he denies history. Which is ironic because if he read about Ussher, he would understand he used historical sources, some of which have since been lost to time. So I'm not sure how he could convince anyone the earth is 6000 years old while denying history at the same time.

The shopping cart theory is bogus tho. Like it’s inconsequential to us because we are abled body people. I asked that question once in an interview to a possible employee, and she explained that due to reasons she sometimes didn’t, because she had a disability. And also noted it also depends because what if something of major importance that takes precedence comes up with time being really crucial, she’s probably leave it where she can that isn’t a large inconvenience. I explained the crucial time management could reflect on you cutting corners on something you saw as less crucial, like an excel sheet used as a general ledger and she explained that there’s varying degrees of importance to her, something work related that could affect the lives of so many wasn’t something you could compare that scenario with. I gave her a green light but the next interviewer said no because she didn’t have enough technical background in a corporate environment.
Maybe the question is more put in an ideal world like :
" If you were in perfectly reasonable circumstances and the shopping cart place was in a reasonable distance if not further a bit
Would you still go out of your way knowing that no one would see you or judge you ?"
Maybe this verison is too long but I think it makes more sense
This seems a good follow-up on the question
I moved to a new small town with one grocery store and the cards were all over the parking lot I just got in the habit of taking the car back or giving it to somebody heading into the store saying this one works and then everybody started taking their cards back they gave me credit for starting something
I like watching anime so I have a hxh pfp and Naruto background on zoom. I get the ocasional “cool background/pfp”. Conversation starts and I hit them with the Top 5 Anime? Man it’s crazy how engaging people get after that and you learn so much about them.
Oh, HunterxHunter not Masou Gakuen HxH! Took me a minute to realise lol
7:07 thats probably the most scary supervillain in any fictional universe, like could you imagine changing the probability of the superhero to catch you to 0% and set the probability of them dieing before getting to you to 100%
I ask "What hurtful thing has someone ever did to you?" Usually a person would go into a long monologue (especiallyif you request that they tell you the whole story)... then afterwards I ask "What is the one hurtful thing *you* did to someone?"
*This is where it is at.*
I feel like from that question you can learn a lot on how a person views the world, how they comprehend and understand things. Things like do they play victim mentality, do they try to be accountable or do they believe they are just perfect or just unaware and ignorant with how they treat people around them.

7:10 "you either die a hero or live long enough to become the villian"
that last comment really had this kind of energy to it
"What do you think about your family?"
It can show all kinds of things, since family plays a huge factor to someone's mentality and view of the world throughout their lives. Family is something that you always end up inheriting a few traits from, regardless of your personality.
Manhole covers are round because it makes it impossible for the cover to fall in.
A triangle with equal sides works too.
"If you had a superpower what would it be?"
When asked this question and then knew better the person I found a correlation. For example, people who responded "healing others immediately" were servicial, often putting other people's needs before theirs, on the other hand those who choose "mind reading/mind control" tended to be manipulative and opportunistic.

@@c.s1393 I would want invisibility so I can take walks at night whenever I wanted to. Also if I'm walking alone and I see that someone needs help, I can knock out the person causing harm to the other person while that person will have time to run.
I generally prefer questions that are somewhat specific and random, because it tells me of their personality will fit with mine.
sad truth about winning the lottery: the government ends up taking half of it and some goes to expenses. and then you are left with 1/3 of the cash you won
I like saying that I'm returning the shopping cart home. And yes I do talk to the cart reassuring it that it will be with it's friends soon.
“How would you react to a talking dog” reveals a lot about someone’s outlook on life
Or just how we view dogs as???
I would try to talk to him, hopefully he'd speak my language. If he did, I'd have a myriad of questions, how does he feels about me, how does he feels about his life, has he ever heard of math, I'd also pay attention to the attitude in their answers to know their opinions on a deeper level. An insight in the lives of my babies would definitively be the best thing ever.
@@sabikikasuko6636 good answer
If their answer is not " shocked". Then i'd be worried and how many other talking dogs has he/she encountered in their life before?
"Do you sleep with socks on?" Yes, because my feet get cold. Why is this revealing about personality?

Bears aren't "aggressive", but humans get really offended when they exercise their right of self-defence. "Aggressive" would be them coming to cities to hunt humans.
That's very well put.
Polar bears are definitely aggressive, and that has nothing to do with self defense.
@@catreecemacleod7556 apparently polar bears and crocodiles a some of the few animals that simply see humans as a food source and naturally hunt them.
Other animals will eat humans too but its usually in uncommon circumstances, even sharks don't naturally see people as something they can eat without a bunch of prodding and poking.
@@archygrey9093 Mostly so! Tiger sharks in particular have especially bad eyesight though, and frequently mistake human swimming for a wounded fish, which is why most shark attacks are by tiger sharks. Generally once they realize it's not a fish they let go but a few seconds of shaking prey with those teeth usually doesn't go so well for whatever's on the receiving end of things. But yeah, moooost things don't consider humans food, but there are definitely a few who do, polar bears being one of them =P
@@catreecemacleod7556 Yeah its hard to explain to most poeple, its probably best described that most animals will eat humans but usually only if they have a unique opportunity or need to do so too, its simply not in their nature or instinct to see poeple as food.
The few animals like Polar Bears and crocodiles however see poeple as food, and its their instinct to run over and eat them.
I reckon a big reason is that we are technically predators, and predators rarely eat other predators even if they kill them.

I always go with superpower questions. My response is having a superbrain. I will always be able to teach myself a new skill fast enough to master it and enjoy the benefits of such abilities within my lifetime. I would be able to excel in sports because I would be able to calculate the perfect trajectory for any shot or pass. The best part is that I am still physically weak so I would have to train rigorously so my achievements would be earned and I wouldn't get bored.

On the topic of HOAs so long as they don't impose stupid rules for no reason and actually help out the neighborhood I wouldn't mind.
But often they have the dumbest rules like your grass has to be a certain height and will measure your lawn to see if it's a fraction of an inch too long or be like you your fence is slightly discoloured and fine you for it.
A friend of mine was in an HOA area for a little. She had eye surgery and was not to be outside or in the sun for like 6 weeks or something.
She gave the HOA a doctor's note and said she will do her yard work in 6 weeks.
They still tried to fine her after a month because the backyard hadn't been taken care of. The backyard that was completely fenced in and not visible from the street. I've been anti-hoa ever since.

I feel like some people are missing an important part of the reddit question which is "seemingly mundane question". If it's already very deep and personal of a question, then of course it's going to "reveal" their personality especially if they just answer honestly.

I'm 44 and I last felt that child-like joy a few days ago, out with my 14 year old son and our dog. We found an overgrown path just off a road in our local cemetery, went exploring in the woods, and there was sets of 5 or 6 steps, leading nowhere, and parts of crumbling walls, and the odd defunct lampost in the woods, it felt like a place no one really knows about, yet is just 5 minutes from our house, we plan on taking our metal detector there in the next few days, and just go an expedition lol.
I did find out it used to be a girls school, and because wildlife has taken over, it's just being left as a wildlife conservation area, we found a fox skeleton while we were there, and I know that deer have been spotted around the cemetery area.
You guys haven't heard about that Three Animals Test?
If you haven't try it out with me now (it takes less than 30 seconds):
1) Name the first three animals you think of!
OK?
2) Name two or three adjectives/characteristics that you associate with each animal!
OK?
3) Supposedly this tells you this about yourself:
The first animal and its characteristics are how you want to be.
The second, how other people see you.
The third, how you really are.
It can be hilarious to do in a group of friends, but you can only do it once!
