The 50 Most Annoying Facts People Can’t Stop Explaining—And Why You Should Care
To be able to suck it up and forget about it is physically impossible with PTSD.
I have PTSD and you won’t believe how many times I have to say that people with PTSD don’t always have flashbacks. It’s not a Vietnam war movie.
Just because it’s your belief doesn’t make it any less homophobic.
Obesity is not a character flaw. It is a far more complex health issue than many people realize.
Hair does not grow longer and thicker because you have shaved it. It grows longer and thicker because you are no longer 11 years old.
The Electoral College was not created because they didn’t have the technology to have an informed populace or to run an election. They could have had national elections where the President was elected by popular vote back then, if that’s what they wanted to do.
It was created so that the smaller states would have a say in the presidency.
Climate change is not a hoax, it’s been proven over and over again, it is a real, impending danger that needs to be taken seriously.
That antibiotics treat bacterial infections, not viral ones. No, antibiotics won’t help your cold.
Beluga_Snuggles: This drives me crazy! Every time I get a cold someone tells me to go to a doctor and get a prescription for antibiotics as if it is some magical panacea.
meowseehereboobs: Some people are even dumber. I had a coworker (an adult male with a degree) tell me I shouldn’t take ibuprofen at all ever, and that my migraines would stop if I went to the doctor for antibiotics. Dude’s like 50.
I’m not a “househusband” because I’m lazy and don’t want to work. I chose to stay home and support my wife while she brings in the bread. I’ve accepted this and you should look past societal stereotypes and stop with the condescension.
For the last time people, there *is* gravity in space! It’s amazing how many people don’t understand this.
Wasps are important pollinators aren’t aren’t just stinging jerks. Some plant species are pollinated exclusively by single wasp species.
That losing weight really is just calories in vs calories out.
No fad diets or gimmicks are going to work in the long run.
Bipolar disorder is deeper than being mad 5 minutes ago and now being perfectly fine. Sure, some people do rapid cycle but it just isn’t that simple. And the weather can not have bipolar disorder. And bipolar disorder is not the same thing as PMS, though symptoms can get worse while menstruating, they are completely unrelated. Also OCD can be obsessive intrusive thoughts, not everyone with OCD is ~so totes obsessed~ with cleaning. You can have OCD and be a slob, it is about obsessive behaviour that interferes with your life. Mental disorders are not cute and quirky, they are literally the worst.
Chrome and IE are just browsers, like cars that are used to drive on the internet. Neither of them is “the internet.”.
Metabolism rate doesn’t vary by more than 15% between people. you’re fat because you eat too much for your activity level..
[source – study](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15534426)
[source – article](https://examine.com/nutrition/does-metabolism-vary-between-two-people/)
From the article
_”for resting metabolic rate (how many calories are burnt by living), 1 standard deviation of the population (68%) was within 6-8% of the average metabolic rate. Extending this, 2 standard deviations of the population (96%) was within 10-16% of the population average.”_
_”Extending this into practical terms [if the average expenditure were] 2000kcal a day, then 68% of the population falls into the range of 1840-2160kcal daily while 96% of the population is in the range of 1680-2320kcal daily”_
_”Metabolic rate does vary, and technically there could be large variance. However, statistically speaking it is unlikely the variance would apply to you. The majority of the population exists in a range of 200-300kcal from each other and do not possess hugely different metabolic rates.”_
The article summarises that the far from there being some inevitable debilitating curse of “low metabolism”… just “moderately active living” (deliberate activity but without breaking a sweat) is sufficient to overide the inherent difference in metabolic rate in the vast majority of people. (the outliers being those with hypothyroidism – a diagnosable condition)
