#48 I think I am a little too "born in the 70's" to fully appreciate this genere of humour. Or I just like my partners to look sexually mature?

I could go either way aesthetically. Mostly, my wife keeps it clean shaven because otherwise it tickles my nose.

#37 oh man. My ex got into vaping, because I was vaping to quit smoking. But he really got into it. He spent so much money on the devices, like up to 200-300 euros on just one vape. Lots and lots of expensive vape juices started appearing. I'd sometimes wake up to the sound of him vaping in bed, wouldn't learn to gtfo of the bedroom to vape. One time he wanted to go to a vape convention. We didn't have money for it. Oh no, his mom is in the hospital, he needs to go see her! Nope. Vape con.

I just set my speed limiter to exactly one kph below the speed limit. This is the most fun when the license plate is from out of town and I know there's a speed camera just ahead.
Thresholdpush
Oh, I have paddle shifters, so I'll often drop a gear. Especially if I'm 5-10 over the limit & they're right on me.
nekuth
Had this the other day. Little KIA I think. I let off the pedal, slowed down, sped up. I did this 3 times and every time they raced to be behind me again. How brainless do you have to be to not look further than the car in front, to notice I'm slowing down on purpose?
alt86er
Some people are simply dumb or too much of an asshole. And from what I've noticed, a lot of people consider it kind of a basic right to steer a car (also for others). Meaning, even the dumbest, most aggressive fuckers get their license. And even when they repeatedly prove that they are not up to the task of driving in a fashion that does not endanger everyone else, they will still keep their license. Because rule one: It's kind of a basic right to be allowed to drive a car, no matter what.

"Virgin conception" sounds a lot more magical than "Uh yea I cheated and now I'm pregnant. Ooops"

Or was raped by a soldier or something. Also entirely possible that aspect is apocryphal and added after whatever nonsense was told at the time to make *this* demi god even more special than the other ones.

True, all possibilities.

I made them up based on personal observations of story structures facilitated by tvtropes, lesswrong, and similar sites. I'm sure I'm not the first, but I can't really point you to stuff beyond pointing you to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparative_mythology

I also wanted the reasons to be mostly exclusionary so that one couldn't be lumped into the other, but an action can have multiple reasons.
DoseOfScience
I touched on that in 2's continuation, under 'power structures', because the powerful occasionally using that power for good is still the powerful enforcing their power structure.

Nice. The only calls I get are either from my last provider or Chinese robocallers. Unless I see a name or name of a business that I recognize, I ignore it & then block the number.
Merdock
It's mostly spam calls for me and they'll hang up after 17 seconds (it's always 17 seconds). But it was super helpful when I was trying to get a job and I was expecting calls from numbers I didn't know. I probably had some people not push through it, but those who did gave us a talking point right off the bat. The interviewer asks what it was, I tell them, and then they would say something like "that's so cool, I should get something like that"

Like having a doorman at an exclusive club. Lol. Half of the ones I get leave a message in Mandarin, or there's just a dead air message.
