You’d be a terrible PE teacher. The standard response to “I can’t do this activity because my doctor says I might cause myself irreparable harm” is to run laps of something on your own while everyone else has fun.

I rarely did PE at school. I was good at writing my own convincing forged notes. Or just not going to school when it was PE.

I have a bone condition that meant I couldn’t do contact sports for a few years for (legitimate, doctor-approved) fear of breaking every long bone in my body. PE teachers seemed to take this as a personal insult of some kind.

I have spent way too much time supervising kids using dangerous stuff. So I automatically start mentally going “no, that is not how you use a stanley knife, put that down” “why is this not in a fume cupboard”?

(Or adults who have volunteered to make rockwall panels but turn out to be less sensible than schoolkids- @Ruffers please never ever let N near an electric drill or even a stanley knife unsupervised ever again)

Yeah love it. Hydraulic presses, stuff with fire/blowtorches/hot metal balls (steady…), stuff getting destroyed in slow motion.

I think all school PE teachers must go to a special school of sadism where they also disavow medicine. They all seem to think asthma stems from personal and moral weakness too.

No but I have seen Uranium and Iridium together in my dreams :wink:

This is how they turn you. Soon you’ll be a huge fan of Roosh and wearing a Donald Trump hat. It was nice (vaguely) knowing you before your complete turn to evil.

The bar of soap looks like it’s dying and oozing out its internal organs!

I watched it because I was all “yeah this is going to be really satisfying, like those videos where they perfectly cut a dessert” and then it was all stabbing and oozing and lovingly blowtorching the knife and I was a bit :worried:

This video is put together in a weird and disturbingly sensual way. I think it’s the slow fluid knife movements coupled with the sounds. Sooooo weird.

That guy really loves heating up his knife in a ritualistic way, doesn’t he?

When I was at school, we were making some scale foam models of furniture with a hot wire. My friend spent ages cutting her things just so, but then picked up the superglue to stick them with. In seconds she had a pool of steaming goo on the table.

Just like @Twinkletoes watching these videos.

Yep, it’s full on TV serial killer stuff! I think there’s also something about the lack of any background noise or music - like they’re really focusing in on the sound the knife makes as it slices, achingly slowly and smoothly, through each object :joy:

If it smells like melted polystyrene, he needs to see his doctor.

It could definitely be one of those sections they have in murder mysteries where they have a little scene from the murderer’s perspective without showing you their identity.

mine is mostly recommending joanna newsom currently.

every time I feel like watching some idiot gamer whinging about anita sarkeesian (or whatever it is they hate these days) I realise I’ll have to put up with it recommending hundreds of similar videos, which puts me off instantly. some good does come of it, I guess.
