That’s an interesting one actually. Is it because women are more likely to be safe inside and sheltered in the kitchen? Or is it because our larger and superior brains contribute to a larger voltage differential between the charged clouds and the ground?
Or is it because that a staggeringly large relative percentage of people hit by lightning are golfers (5%), and statistically they are just more likely to be men?
…that’s probably the bulk of it, to be honest.
I wonder if you take it further and break it down by race, what the difference is between white people getting hit by lightning and black people getting hit by lightning is?
I doubt the majority of that 5% of golfers are anything other than male and white. Furthermore, if you account for the fact that 8% of lightning strikes are water related (boating, fishing, and swimming) you can probably discount any black people being in that chunk as well. And 3% are related to heavy farm machinery, like tractors. So that’s another 3% that you can probably count towards only white people.
So that’s like…16% right off the top that you can attribute mainly to white people and not to black people.
And you can probably say the same about men versus women. Probably not a lot of female tractor drivers out there relative to male ones.
I would blame it on the urban legend that if you climb a tree, tower or spire during a thunderstorm you can upgrade your Prince Albert to a Thunder Rod.
That is incorrect, Black Lightning CREATES lightning from the bio-electric field his body generates. He does not get hit by conventional charged cloud lightning.
Would you play a game with an “Old, exhausted Superman?”
Too bad it’s cancelled. AKUMA HAX is probably happy, meanwhile GM is probably pissed.
I call it anything but weed, because that term is boring. That smiley looked like it just got done shoving its finger up its ass and is now smelling it. Is this what you do in your free time, Martian? Don’t lie, either.
Edit: Now I’m going to go roll up some greenery to help me enjoy the scenery.
I know a girl that got dumped yesterday, posting sad statuses all today. Will probably be back with the dude next week.
Rather weed that pot, imo. My stoner buddies and I used to imagine pot as being derogatory. Now that I’m not high all the time I see that was silly. Still though fuck people who call weed/ganja/whatever, pot.
