They said to ask anything, not that they would answer anything.
And now…we wait
Wasn’t familiar with that subreddit (I’m not from the middle east). I did have a reddit account though, but I didn’t post much and usually I would just look at GenZedong posts (back when it was still active on reddit).
Where are you from?
And the follow up American question, “No really, where are you FROM?”
If you ever want to ask for someone's ethnicity, just guess wrong and they'll correct you. But like they might curse you depending on the guess.
This is why I always guess Antarctican 🇦🇶
Im singaporean
what's your lemmygrad origin story?
I used to scroll through GenZedong on reddit (back when it was still active). I remember there was like a post about telling the subreddit members to move to lemmygrad (or something like that, I might be remembering wrongly). So I would basically scroll through just like I usually would on r/GenZedong until 2022 when I decided to make an account.
Also I should probably thank Hakim, I got one of his videos recommended to me before I discovered r/GenZedong. (Along with this video: https://youtu.be/MjwL1mSrPLA?si=Uxrandg1DUPASI40)
My Lemmygrad origin story is basically the exact same as yours
holy shit same

Do you enjoy learning about Judaism?
I don’t know much about judaism but I wouldn’t mind learning about it
There are some great videos on the Hasidim that you should watch some time, but many of them are a few dozen minutes long. I am sure that you’ll enjoy them, though. There is one boy in the series who reminds me of Omar Mukhtar.
If you don’t have a lot of time you could watch this miniseries of Ashkenazim and Sephardim exchanging culture. It’s much lighter on the Judaism content, but it’s pretty fun.
how did u end up in this community?

Favorite movie?
Godzilla Vs Biollante
Btw, it might take a while for me to answer since I’ll probably be busy doing work or sleeping.
Favorite Pokemon? (Including variants and special forms like mega evolutions and gigantamaxing)
This is a difficult question haha I’m not familiar with the Pokémon franchise but if I had to pick a favourite it would be this dude (he looks like Godzilla, which is why I like him lol)
Pretty sure his name is Tyranitar
This probably isn’t a full answer, sorry don’t know much about Pokémon :(
Follow up question: what are your opinions on Mega Tyranitar and Iron Thorns? And Baxcalibur? (who looks even more like Godzilla imo)
They’re awesome!!!!
I agree! Thank you for your input 🦖
WTF gen 9 is weird
The weirdest one so far is definitely Raging Bolt. They turned Raikou into a giraffe lol
Fair enough, that one’s way weirder
Which is heavier, 1 kg of steel, or 1 kg of feathers?
Pretty sure it’s steel (i might be stupid)
The answer is neither bc they both weigh 1 kg
I think you're right because Kg is mass.
kg is indeed mass and mass is a measurement for the matter an object contains. It's a definite amount for any given object. SI unit is kilogram or kg
Weight is a measurement of gravitational forces on mass. Weight is relative to location due to changing gravitational forces (expressed as acceleration or distance (m) divided by time (s) squared). SI unit is kg•m/s^2 or mass times acceleration (which is the units used to express gravity or g).
So every time we waddle our large bodies onto a scale it's figuring out a number which (should be anyway) your body's mass times Earth's gravitational force 9.81m/s^2 and expressing it in kg because we are silly creatures.
Silly but also practical and/or self-absorbed. So much so that we made 1g = 9.81m/s^2 conveniently our home world's gravitational force! So since weight is relative, and depends on a definite value of mass (m) times the variable value of gravity (g) you can kinda sorta just eliminate g when considering weights compared on earth taken at the same location. Since g = 1 you get weight= mass • g or weight = mass • 1g or weight=mass(times Earth's g...but no one says that part. It's assumed). So on earth, at the same location, two objects with the same mass also weigh the same absolute number of units, but the units are technically different, just never or rarely expressed differently. We just assume for the sake of simplicity (but also confusion!) being on earth that mass=weight.
Why did I type this? I don't know! I hate myself probably. And if anyone comes in quoting equations and saying mass varies depending on certain conditions, I promise I'll start crying.
Do you believe in djinn? Or any form of otherworldly spirits?
I believe in djinn and shaytan but not ghosts.
What's your favourite colour?
Green
I also like black and blue
What were you prior to becoming an ML?
Apolitical, but later on I found out about the far-right and then the christchurch mosque shooting happened, I think those had a hand in turning me left.
