  • The weirdest thing I was asked to prove was that there was a direct flight from Buenos Aires (EZE) to Auckland (AKL). Livvie sent me a link to a website that made a claim that she wanted me to debunk. The claim was that Earth is flat and South America is close to being on the opposite edge of the world as Australia and New Zealand. The flat Earth believer's conclusion was that direct flights from South America to Australia or New Zealand don't exist.

    There was a direct flight from Buenos Aires to Auckland before COVID. Baggage was loaded onto the plane. People boarded the plane. The plane left the gate. My last boyfriend was from Australia. He flew direct from Sydney to Santiago without any stops in the northern hemisphere, then he flew from Santiago to Buenos Aires.

      I had to don my commerce inspector’s role and prove that the shipments of liquified guacamole extract were being prepped for smugglers to get past the recent embargo and sneak them into the US. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

    I had to prove to my wife that the Percocets she was taking included oxycodone. I printed her a picture of the molecule. This post was edited by Element 99 at February 24, 2022 4:34 PM MST

    Well, I'm sure that worked.  My long-time doctor back home used to explain meds by drawing a molecule.  He was such a hoot, and a genius.  He had a practice, did research at a university and taught classes at the med school there.  I've not found a doctor I liked so much since I left my home town in 2010.   I specifically remember him drawing a molecule to show me the difference between Prilosec and Nexium.

      (Cough, cough.) Please forward me a copy of it so that I may cross-reference it with the files indicating those who should not be mistakenly forced into recruited for harem duties.

    To prove to myself -- and to believe, myself --  that I am a worthy person.

      Or, you could have just moved into that spare bedroom I’ve always set aside for you. No pesky financial entanglements or red tape; it would only require you to prove your love

    Well, I have a list of requests and demands as well.  You give me one of yours and I will give you one of mine.  Not something like leaving the cap off of the toothpaste either.  Something with some substance.

    That is saying a whole lot and nothing at all.  What do you mean by that statement? 
    Satisfaction in what, and how.

      It’s a reference to what is said when one party challenges another party to a duel. There’s also the gesture of slapping the opponent with one’s glove while issuing the challenge.
