I don't use chapstick and I occasionally get chapped lips. Mainly after drinking alcohol or smoking.

Things you believe that you can't actually prove with evidence

Aliens are out there and there is an intergalactic organization of planets but Earth is not in it because we're too dumb.
So they watch, and laugh.

Can't prove aliens exist, but the known universe (just the known parts!) is too damn big, so i fully believe they have to exist, if only just because mathematically it's unthinkable that only earth could possibly sustain or have sustained life in the entire known universe.
Maybe an accident happened and they dumped the body. Always thought that something along those lines was the most probable answer. But who knows?
Mine is aliens as well. I find it extremely hard to believe that no other life forms exist in the whole universe.
By the pint, and given responsible drinking, beer is healthier for you than fruit juice. The latter is loaded with sugar, and usually stripped of all fruit fiber.
Prove me wrong, scientists!

It's basically Star Trek out there among the stars. We're just not apart of The Federation of Planets yet.
I thought the animal thing was true, the dream thing I know is just a theory.
Free Will kind of does exist in a sense. You can make choices, but those choices aren't made in a vacuum free of influences, past experiences, environment, etc. if you roll a ball down a perfect hill, you can predict it's movements. If you add a bump or two, you can still measure where it is going to end up. The more complexities you add, you can still account for in this theoretical. However I don't think we will ever reach a point where we can measure the human mind in such a complex way.
Snapchat holds back views and will show them based on your app refreshing habits, to promote maximum use of time with app. The app will also keep track of your physical location so that if you're around another Snapchat user it'll ensure it displays the view on time correctly.
Also I've been saying Facebook is listening through your microphone, picking up key words for advertising, for a few years now. I believe it was "proved" awhile ago with some lines in the User Agreement.

yes, I meant the second part can not be proved. I also heard a story where a lady had a cat and after a time he used to hit her throat with his paw. As it turned out, she had cancer there. Apparently the animal noticed it with his acute smelling sense.
For what it's worth OP me and my OH have been saying the same since we got our S7's. We had the 4's before and we've had to endlessly edit everything ever since we upgraded.
I have no doubt in my mind about this
It's only "free" from our perspective though, so it isn't truly free will. We're not independently making a choice, we're simply executing one and if time could be rewound, we'd always make that choice if everything else stayed the same

Sure, but just because we can't fully understand or explain it doesn't mean reality isn't fully deterministic.
This plus I do believe something could happen after death. I don't feel as strongly about that as I do that God exists (I'm close to certain that some kind of God exists, but I'm like 70-80% that there's something after death)
Otherwise I try to be as scientific and empirical about things as possible. No conspiracies, alternative medicine, etc.. It's funny because a lot of people I know believe I'm an atheist because of how logic oriented I can be.
Thanks doc, I'll be sure to let my therapist know.

I thought his joke was pretty funny. Can't we have a little bit of irreverence every now and then?
Aliens and ghost, but maybe not in the way someone would first think of. When I say aliens I'm not necessarily speaking about way advanced civilizations as much as just other living organisms out there. When I say ghost I mostly mean the residual theory. I mean, we're on a big ball flying through space. Anything is possible.
ONLY in appropriate threads, as plagiarize said. What constitutes an appropriate thread to complain? Oh, I see you've found the catch-22.

Thank you.
I 100% believe this too.

Not at all controversial most people think it's fishy as far as I know.
They are guilty of child neglect at the very least regardless...
If they were Shannon Matthews and went to benidorm instead and where in a shitty British bar watching del boy instead of tapas they would have hung out by the media and charged with neglect I have no doubt at all.
Funny how they used all that donations to pay for the mortgage etc...
I think Netflix is making a documentary about the case, and I'm hype as fuck for it.

Sorry, it wasn't a critique on moderation. Rather a critique on users who can't control themselves in certain threads thus requiring mod intervention.
PS: don't be mad if I make a "mods have a thin skin" joke in the future now.
I believe Bigfoot exists.
I don't think it's an ape or terrestrial animal we just haven't found yet, I think it's some sort of ancient elemental or nature spirit like native peoples spoke about in their legends.

Aliens, or at least some kind of extraterrestrial life even if it's just unicellular, is the most logical. Too many planets and solar systems for there not to be some kind of life on some other planet or moon somewhere
Actual alien stories, abductions, and anything like that are bullshit though

I don't see how it could be anything but this. The only other option is that we make choices randomly, divorced of reason, which I don't think would be preferable.
