I watched their Deutschland video for the first time a few weeks ago when the music community posted it. I found it very moving and upsetting.

Sometimes it’s the easiest way to get a particular toppings group. Like a “mushroom burger” comes with Swiss, bacon, sautéed onions, and some sauce, or you can build your own for 10% more than getting a pre-built mushroom burger, minus the mushrooms. Plus, when you and-then an order, there’s a high chance they’ll miss something.

I mean, my local place asks me every time if I want to add peanut butter to my burger. I’d also expect modification to be more and more frequent with the prevalence of touchescreens allowing customers to highly customize items. I don’t see modifying as a big deal, within reason. Not just for burgers, obviously.

The study found that people who drank a little had, on average, better health than those that abstained entirely. The study failed to mention that a notable portion of those that abstain were abstaining due to health reasons. As in, their health was already bad and was the reason they chose not (or were not allowed) to drink. But, of course, the alcohol industry ran with the first part and has been pushing it ever since. Once you reduce the abstinent group to only those freely abstaining, the average health for the dry subjects is back in the lead.

Thanks for the actual tips. It feels like this will just kill my hobby/craft desires if I have to do all this vetting for basic shit to avoid Amazon but not pay extra for poor selection from the local store. I’ll see, I guess. I suppose I could just braid my own weeds instead of crafting big things. That’s still free and local, right?

That typically doesn’t work well for hobby and craft supplies. Limited selection at the physical stores, if there’s any at all, and there’s no individuals selling raw supplies.

Even if you live somewhere dense, there’s so many niche things, no brick and mortar place stocks it. For my own router, I had to find one recommended by forum users a decade ago for a specific disconnect issue within the Xbox One’s internal 360 emulator. BB and WM didn’t have the known-good options. In my recent case here, it was hobby stuff that my local craft store doesn’t have at all, despite carrying similar items. And I mean my classic example is I used to dabble in LEDs before everyone was just buying mains bulbs and 12v strips. The price of a single blue 5mm LED in the hobby electronic store was the same as 100 on ebay.

I just bought some things on ebay to avoid Amazon. They dropshipped Amazon to me, individual packages and all, for nearly 100% markup. I don’t know how to avoid that and find “real” sellers dropshipping non-branded warehoused Chinese goods like the good old days.

The pickup? Why, that’s a Ford F350 H3X Powerstroke, heavy on the stroke!

Ford F250/F350 body (illegible fender badge). H3 of Hummer + X of Toyota PRO-4X = H3X (Ford FX4 package also has a red X though). Illegible “Powerstroke” on door (their diesel brand name, gas does not get a badge).

“Yeah, AI knows everything. It definitely knows precisely how big a Ferd Fiftyhundred would look at these houses”. Good catch. Anything but the metric system.

69 is older than that and it’s still here

Yes, you should have commented what you did, because [eventually] someone gave you an explanation of why what you thought isn’t as good as you thought it was. Also… Why be “smart” and “interesting” when you can be a collection of 300 tangential rabbit hole topics in a trench coat?

Me though? I chose to be a library of sick references in a hunched human form.

“I don’t remember you” was my idea to say the last 5 years have completely changed my life, but I’d probably assume I got Alzheimers ahead of schedule. One sentence is tough.

“It worked out” feels like what if want to hear, but that ignores growing global and national issues. Might even make me lazier, believing in some grand natural path, creating a paradox.

I could send details on the job move that made life better, but I’m on the path that took me out of that job already, so why try to change it?

Are monetary moves the only thing that would work for me? Not to change my route, but give me some more padding today?

Gas stations all added a credit surcharge in the 2008 recession and half of them never removed it.

Sorry, I was never really in a situation to judge soundproofness. They were open when we were boisterous, closed when empty

Lemon is always best, except when it’s lime. But I don’t eat limes, just squeeze them for juice, so lemons still rank higher.

Rind and all.

Sliding doors punish door slammer by rolling back open. At least, all the interior pocket doors I’ve experienced. Makes for a good habit correction prpgram

I’m thinking you just read the titles off your DVD collection

The unofficial trilogy is Event Horizon (1997), Sunshine (2007), and Pandorum (2009). Three entirely different takes. But, Ironically, I watched The Black Hole (1979 Disney response to Star Wars) and Event Horizon back to back. It’s the same damn plot.

Tokyo Drift starts with a street race with a girl as the prize, too.

Anyway, Donut Media’s video on ranking best and cringiest FaF movies/scenes/lines is excellent. Might be two videos
