Dads React to Their Daughters Getting Catcalled

Dads React to Their Daughters Getting Catcalled

Payback says...

"I think there would be a fist fist there..."

No... I think a baseball bat would be involved and he's toning it down because his daughter and cameras are present.

Howdy - sorry for the delay, was traveling on business. The issue you are referring to below with regards to reusable water bottles is I believe related to the type of liner (thin coating of polymer based material that is coated on the inside of some but not all of these bottles). In most cases when polymers come in contact with food (incl. water) the concerns are usually not in the polymer itself, but in some of the additives (processing aids, plasticizers, anti-oxidants, UV stabilizers, pigments etc) that in some cases have negative impacts on some human metabolic processes. I would emphasize 'some'. The recent outrage over BPA is not supported unequivocally by scientific evidence, but there is enough uncertainty to move away from it as a plasticizer in PET bottles. If one was to use a food grade polyethylene or polypropylene water bottle, requiring no liner, and totally suitable as a water bottle, then there is no concern at all with the long term use of this material in water bottles. Next time you go through the grocery store, have a look at all the packaging - films on processed meets, stretch wrap on fresh meat cuts, all of your cold dairy products - the vast majority of these are made from one of either polyethylene or polypropylene, with a smattering of polystyrene and polyvinylidene chloride thrown in. All perfectly safe.

As for how the balls are made - these are blow molded. If you have a look at the plastic baseballs made for kids that come with a big fat plastic bat (or really any hard plastic ball that you might find at Wal Mart or Toys'R'Us, you'll see the small ridge that runs equatorially around the circumference of the ball (that's the parting line where the two mold halves come together) and somewhere on that line there will be either a little tiny hole or a small protruding knob that used to be the parison where the air was injected into the small plastic glob forcing it to the walls of the mold like an expanding balloon. This is the same type of molding that makes your liquid dishwashing detergent bottle, plastic ketchup and mustard containers, and plastic milk jugs. Hope this helps a bit. cheers

I admit this is something I know little about so I have a couple of questions if you don't mind... There seems to be a concern about what reusable water bottles are made of. So you're supposed to use a certain type or the plastic (and this may be the wrong term) leeches into your water and then I don't know exactly what, but you probably die some horrible death maybe like in the toxic avenger. So one question is... Is that true (or maybe a less exaggerated version)? The second one I think you may have answered is... Are these injection molded? I can't comprehend how these would be made. I think I need a How it's Made to wrap my mind around this. Thanks.

As it sounded, it is an obviously very noble profession. Plenty of "ballers" out there giving it their all, even when they're sixty years old and their joints are held together by the dreams and hopes of their children & grandchildren. Even the morals of a Football, Basketball, Golf, Baseball, Bowling, Tennis, and Soccer players is far different--and better--from those simpletons who get paid to have sex with their own students, with half if not more of the scandals getting swept under the rug...

Not like those teachers who get the easiest jobs in the world, getting paid huge sums of money doing something that's fun... Not too mention that every student that graduates from High School could do their job.... It's ridiculous. Especially these new High School aged teachers they're hiring (showing my point exactly!)...

What a mind frack. Also, does this mean that ALL sports are paid for and ran by the government somehow? Must have been the Nixon years--were he never got caught. Who knows?

/Somehow, this absolutely doesn't translate backwards into our Universe. Except for a few minor sentences.

how to not throw a frisbee

newtboy says...

True, but they seemed to be trying to throw overhand. Forehand would be from the side about waist level. What's odd is I've seen a friend throw Frisbees overhand, like pitching a baseball, and they flew 4-500 feet every time.
I can only throw backhand.

Stormsinger said:

Forehand is a perfectly good throw, although it takes more practice than the traditional backhand. It's also faster and has a tendency to roll. But if you're playing a game where the object is to make the other guy drop the frisbee, it's purely wonderful. At least the first few times you use it...until they adjust to the reversed spin.

Wait, why's he got a gopro mounted to his head at a baseball game? I guess it worked out this time, but is worth looking like a giant knob the rest of the time?

That was a rhetoric question.

Your brain literally refused to see that..

The grass is ON FIRE on the other side of the fence, Lantern.

And you just to looove to telling the internet, videosift in particular, about how you can totally help put out that fire..

..with MORE FIRE!

So, no..

By no means do I EVER think you'd sit down with a person of color - not even your son-in-law - and sincerely discuss the repugnant shit you say here.

You're too much of a coward - like most bigots - to analyze your worldview and adjust it appropriately.

Just like all conservative-minded folks. You're scared.

You just want everything to be exactly like Happy Days, again.
You just want Baseball, Apple Pie, & the 'Murican Dream to live again!

Silly nostalgic old dog, you.

I can almost sympathize. /s

Why would I want to sit down with someone who takes every opportunity to call me a racist, or shitty, etc?

Perhaps if you could work on the charm part of your personality...?

Do I call you names?

All I want for you is for you to make the best of your circumstances, but you only seem to want to look at your circumstances, make everyone tell you how sad your life is, that you have no hope etc.

You seem quite content in your life, so perhaps that is your atunement.
When you are ready to move on, you will put all of this behind you, including me, and you'll make something of your life. (I only assume you've done nothing with your life because you never say anything about it other than 'woe is me', white people are racist etc)

At least you have internet! You could google 'famous black people' or something like that, and see how they became successful.

Baseball gives me joy. Even the Dodgers

poolcleaner said:

I was going to dodge your reply but I always enjoyed the games I attended when Barry Bonds tore shit up, even at the cost of my home team.

But I've witnessed first hand several of Piazzas's epic grand slams. Most games are like, well, ok that was boring, if not medatative, but not those Piazza games.

Sort of like this surgery. Most surgeries are just so boring. But this is home run leading shit right here.
