They've constantly proven over and over again that they're far smarter than I am. They have university educations, I failed my end of school exams. They always know something weeks or even months before I hear about it from another source. I can't call them stupid as that isn't proof that they're wrong.


And yet they say things that are wrong, and stupidly wrong, all the time. If they are wrong that much, they are stupid, and they need to be called stupid.

Stand up for yourself.
 
They've also studied film design, game design and whatever spicy opinion they have next, yet they're always laughably wrong. I wonder why that is.

They already say that I'm too overconfident, arrogant and selfish.

One of them took film and game studies at university so that they could become a professional critic. Another took creative writing and is now a web comic artist. A third did attempt to go to college, but quit after disagreeing with the teachers and so entered the workforce.

I found a blog post where they wrote some of the problems they had about Peter Jackson's The Hobbit trilogy.

They're using your insecurity as a means of control, Chukchi. Wake up!

They are using your insecurity to be emotionally abusive and bullying. The only way out of this is to have no further contact with these people, or to learn to stand up for yourself.

I think that the two are intertwined.
 
They sound like an eight-year-old telling you to stop hitting yourself.

Good grief Chukchi! You are letting yourself be browbeaten by the clown that wrote that piece of drivel? C'mon man, there are seven billion people in the world who are entitled to opinions, and pretty much all of them are better positioned than that bozo.

I checked out his review of "The Shape of Water". He liked it all except the look of the monster. He failed to realize the movie history behind that specific look. He missed the boat completely. I was not impressed. I will read some more.

I won't. I don't even care about his movie opinions, the guy is an absolutely awful writer. His prose made me doze, before I got through the first paragraph. For Chukchi's sake I powered through into the second paragraph before I had to start skimming just to keep from quitting on it entirely. The idea that I would honor that imbecile with a second span of my valuable reading time is out of the question.

@Chukchi Husky; get better friends. Ditch that one, for sure.

I've never seen "The Shape of Water", but a quick read about that film on Wikipedia mentions that the monster is inspired by "Creature from the Black Lagoon". I've seen "Creature from the Black Lagoon" as part of the Universal Monster collection, maybe I can try to convince them to watch it.

That's never going to happen.

You are correct. Ignorant Toby never made the connection. If he had, he would have changed his review of the monster in Shape of Water.
 
Presumably a gas, maybe Radon?
 
What's the heaviest element that won't set off a metal detector?
Do you mean as in a chemical element? I suppose that it'll be in solid form so… carbon?
Otherwise, some construction materials, I suppose. What do you need it for?
 
Jewelry does not trigger the detectors, so minimum gold. A quick check in the periodic system says that polonium is slightly heavier, and I think we know that that one got on an airplane.


That would probably be a quantity, rather than a quality, issue. Most jewelry has little actual mass.

To make a club that will get through security. Now wood is always an option, but I want it hollow to contain batteries, and still have enough heft to pummel with and enough strength to not break when I do.
