u/Dont_pet_the_cat Feb 04 '23

I'm so fun I never even get invited

u/McDonaldsnapkin Feb 04 '23

Sounds right

u/Defektiv17 Feb 05 '23

Theyre so fun they dont get invited because everyone would be distracted by how fun they are

u/AliciaTries Feb 04 '23

Magicians usually know how their tricks work. OP knowing what's going on doesn't make a post here good or bad.

The explanation being obvious can make it less satisfying, though, since the appeal is often not understanding how it works.

u/SinkPisser_ Feb 04 '23

Yes, because black magic is real

u/-LongEgg- Feb 04 '23

just have fun man

u/dneboi Feb 05 '23

You should not be downvoted, you are right…this sub is full of mouth breathers who get baffled by static electricity and other simple laws of nature.

u/Dont_pet_the_cat Feb 05 '23

There are so many people saying the same thing on this sub... but I'm the only one getting downvoted into oblivion. Love reddit

u/SuperSaberman7 Feb 04 '23

Hell yeah! Static electricity ftw!

u/intelligentplatonic Feb 04 '23

But why doesnt every piece of lint around go flying to it? Why just that little bit?

u/brito68 Feb 04 '23

Nah, the video's just being played in reverse

u/flippydifloop Feb 05 '23

bruh why u gotta take the magic away…

u/SlappedByKarma Feb 06 '23

That still seems like a pretty impressive distance for static

What is the AoE for static electricity?

21

u/Snoo87660 Feb 04 '23 edited Feb 05 '23

3in for unbuffed.

1ft if buffed with the "Coal power!" spell.

10ft if buffed with the "You pissed off the gods now!" spell.

u/This_isnt_cool_bro Feb 04 '23

Depends on if you have it upgraded. It's very hard to find the necessary resources to upgrade static electricity, but it's not very high at level 1. Of course I think here in this video the object had a level of maybe 5 or 6, which isn't too rare or anything but it isn't common

1

u/kingbloxerthe3 Feb 04 '23

Just wait until spiffingbrit finds a way to do infinite upgrades for static electricity. He'll make all lint in the world fly to a bag before long.

1

u/This_isnt_cool_bro Feb 04 '23

I think there's a level cap unfortunately. It also gives massive debuffs if you misuse the skill tree for it

I think the problem is that you're not carrying it all the way to the trash

12

u/SpectralBacon Feb 04 '23

Indeed, there are only two states of lint programmed: on the bag or in the trash. Any attempt at an in-between results in a reset.

3

u/Superb_Breadfruit_81 Feb 05 '23

For those unfamiliar with programming languages, lint is short for linteger

u/CaptnFuckOff Feb 04 '23

Fucking static electricity!?!?!?! This is what passes for acceptable!?!?! Mediocrity at its finest. Shits awful.

u/ajax2k9 Feb 04 '23

That seems like a long distance for static electricity to attract the lint. I wonder what the electric potential was between the bag and the lint

0

u/nacho_breath Feb 05 '23

Electrical attractive force technically goes to infinite distance

3

u/4ntongC Feb 05 '23

Yet decreases inversely proportional to distance squared, so that’s a pretty long distance indeed

6

u/Desperate-Craft-2144 Feb 04 '23

I too was disappointed. However, seeing as I pay absolutely nothing to view content, I will just keep scrolling onward

u/TonyVstar Feb 04 '23

I think you're supposed to drop it on the carpet and try to vacuum it, then pick it up and try again, repeat, repeat, repeat...

4

u/AltruisticFlight5996 Feb 04 '23

The action you're suggesting is a sniglet originated from comedian Rich Hall, called 'carperpetuation.'

A sniglet is a word that should be in the dictionary but isn't.

4

u/TonyVstar Feb 04 '23

I definitely stole that from a comedian!

Sniglet is great! Dictionaryologists need to get their shit together

u/ScenicFlyer41 Feb 04 '23

Yes it's cool and all, but you know that this is static, we know this is static, so I think this would belong more on r/mildlyinteresting and not this sub.

It's the yellow colour. Insects think that this is the sun and keep flying towards it.

Live hack: don't wear yellow shirts in summer, especially in the twilight. You will be a prey to mosquitos.
