I've never seen someone throw a hook that slow in my life... the guy kept getting out of the way but he was laughing the whole time. Then he stopped and said all right I guess you don't want any help lol...

    • Its the correct way to pronounce it. o is not proceeded by a vowel so the sound isn't 'oh' its 'ow'. Its made more prominent by his accent.

    • I always figured "Slawth" was a pronunciation based on the American drawl, contrasted by the British "Slowth" pronounciation. I would assume certain pastoral Brits would pronounce it "Slorth".

    • I mean its true. Humans used to eat mainly plants. In prehistoric times when humans were mainly still just tribes, hunting and eating meat was a rarity which happened only a few times a month at most. Foraging was the primary food source, people ate mostly plants. And later on when farms developed, this become even more common as plant based food was abundant. People started to make grains, breads etc

    • No it's worse. They evolved from what ever existed before, because Science presumes the Universe is ex nihilo - it has always existed. But does Science now posit the Big Bang. Which exploded out of a Singularity, with no extent or duration - so out of Nothing. And one of the arguments for the existence of God is that if God exists the Universe would have arose out of Nothing. So when I was a child, the Big Bang Theorists were considered Scientific heretics. Even Stephen Hawking knew this. It's why he posited multi verses, but the problem is there is NO evidence that there was anything before the Big Bang. It's all speculation, leaving Hawking to say, we just don't know enough. You cannot prove the existence of God either, as no system of logic is based on anything beyond faith. Induction is based on probability and deduction is based on aprior first pricinples that cannot be proven, as there is no metalogic to prove them by. (Not even Russellian Logic). It's still all based on a=a. I dare you to prove a = a. (Yes, I did get a degree in Philosophy, Theology, and Anthropology (Physical and Cultural).
