5 feet apart = Not gay
(startrek.website)
I cannot fathom why this is the title.
This is a good example of why woman live longer.
Just looking at this gives me anxiety 😟
I had to look away. Immediately minimized the image. I can't handle that shit before 6 am.
even women do
Hahaha. Good catch. I will leave it to prove my stupidity.
The drunk male problem solving.
Note to self: It's 2023. Men still have a big fear of being labeled gay.
Worse: football organisations in The Netherlands of all places are refusing to wear anything that implies sympathy to LGBTQ+ matters. Being a footballer and called gay is still a popular insult. A comedian had to start selling team captain bands, replacing the organisation's One Love one with a new Wat Laf version (it means "How cowardly"). At least the Wat Laf is aimed at the national football organisation.
For some reason on the other hand, the women's football side has no problem with that, with several overt lesbians playing in the national leagues.

As long as none of them ground themselves they're fine. Not that I think these people are smart enough to know one way or the other, but the sandals float was probably to keep it easy to plug things in
wdym? if one touches the live and they're grounded, they're fucked aren't they?
They're not grounded when they're standing in the pool, though. If they grabbed a ladder or if someone on the ground tried to hand them something, they'd get a good shock, but they'd trip a breaker before anything deadly happened
Imma need you guys to demonstrate with a toaster.
I don't know why you're doubting me, but the only reason why "toaster + bathtub" means death is because your body is in contact with the bathtub, which is grounded. Regardless, you still wouldn't die unless you had preexisting health conditions like a weak heart on account of the aforementioned breakers
An above ground pool like the one in the picture insulates you with a very thick floor of rubber. Here's an article about exactly what I'm talking about
How a backyard swimming pool can become an electrical death trap
Excerpt:
“It wouldn’t look or sound any different. You could jump in, swim around and be fine in the water with the electricity but once you become the bridge to ground by touching the ladder or rail you’d die,” said the licensed electrician with 20 years of experience.
That's shocking
Only if you're grounded 😉
Regardless, you still wouldn’t die unless you had preexisting health conditions like a weak heart on account of the aforementioned breakers
Are you telling me reruns of mystery shows from the 70s lied to me? COLUMBO LIED TO ME?!
Wait- what about hair dryers?
Wait so you would die, or you wouldn't die? I'm getting mixed messages.
You are one wrong object touch away from possibly dying
aren't we all one wrong object touch away from possibly dying anyways?

So , it looks like an inflatable pool - no metal structure nor ladder. Perfectly safe
… not that I’d want to test that

What does grounded actually mean?
If the pool is 98% pure water they're probably fine unless it has piss in it
Who is out here filling up an entire pool with distilled water
All you need is a gfci circuit somewhere in the line to be safe.
Although as electroboom once elegantly showed, it will still hurt like hell

Let's say there is an electrical shock . would it hit one of them or all of them ?
One or none. Electricity is hard to predict though. It tries to find the easiest way to complete a circuit, but the easiest way isn't always easy to predict.
Seeing their pasty skin I think they are already ghosts, so they will be fine.
It's no homo bro just trust Me
WTF?
This makes me irrationally angry.
