    I mean, he coulda got hit by lightning instead, and he wasn’t designed to experience that either.

    Last time I saw this post I said it reminded me of this picture of a snake that was electrocuted after biting a wire, and then another snake that was electrocuted after biting the first snake.

    expand

    This one resonates with me more because the first snake was probably an idiot who saw the wire and thought, “I’m gonna bite that other snake.” Then he died from it.

    Second snake comes along, sees the first snake, has the exact same thought, then dies in the exact same way.

    Except the second snake was right. But the first snake’s stupidity still killed him.

        That’s the whole deal with the kingsnake and king cobra, they’re specialist snake-eaters. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ophiophagy

    Meybe he thought that since the wires are same color, nothing will halpen. Seriously who wired this.

      In the US, ground is bare copper, green, or green and yellow.

      Neutral is white or grey

      And hots are any other color, with black, red, and blue being common for lower voltages, and brown, orange, and yellow being common for higher voltages. But that’s just an unofficial standard, you can run all hot pink wires for your hots if you really wanted to.

        You don’t gotta, but you gotta. Because for some reason some people decided it’s not a right to have food/water/shelter, it’s something you have to earn.

            From each according to their ability to each according to their need. Food, water, and shelter are needs and should be provided for unconditionally. We have the ability to fulfill these needs and not doing so is immoral. Some people are not able or willing to contribute to the collective good unless these needs have already been met, we all benefit from uplifting the destitute.

                  Yes, and I’m very glad we have a social safety net. But that wouldn’t be available if everyone just figured they didn’t want to work and had a right to food and shelter without contributing.

          There’s a thin membrane/layer of tissue that lives between all your organs, so that explosively delaminating would be protonic reversal bad, but in a slow, wet, meaty sort of way.
