I’m sure there’s a hummus that’s delicious enough for you to eat it off a toilet seat. That doesn’t mean toilets (or celery) are food.

- Comment on Could heating oil subsidies be reduced or replaced with subsidies for installing electric heating and houses.? 1 week ago:
Definitely not likely under the doesn’t drill baby drill administration, but energy wise it would be that smarter play for energy security
- Comment on Could heating oil subsidies be reduced or replaced with subsidies for installing electric heating and houses.? 1 week ago:
It could help but gas heat is cheaper per BTU than heat pumps in most of the USA due to low gas prices caused by a glut of gas from the fracking boom.

Would it be pronounced chewblerone?
- Comment on Why in America is .08 the legal limit for drunk driving? How come it's not an even 0.10? Who decided at what level being drunk starts? Then 4 beers of 12oz's is 0.08 why is it that small? 2 weeks ago:
At least in the US, the smoking age was moved to 21 back before COVID.
- Comment on Can I Live Off-Grid Using Littered Vapes & Solar? | Chris Doel 2 weeks ago:
If it’s gonna be heavy AF anyway, might as well add some sand to the bottom. To protect the concrete in case of a runaway.
Good luck!

Give them $5 to put the box just outside the store, and tell them there’s another $5 for them if they call when it’s full.
Putting it inside could be a bit of a fire hazard, so I bet they’d be more receptive to it being outside
- Comment on Who does Temu think I am? 2 weeks ago:
It being for VR headsets doesn’t mean it’s not for kinky sex stuff
- Comment on Valid point 3 weeks ago:
The phone is already trying to connect to cell networks when it’s in the bag, the moment it comes out it’s already broadcasting which means the cell networks can triangulate your location even before ‘signal is acquired’.

How do you do tap-to-pay from inside a faraday bag?

Who wouldn’t want a nice shoulder massage during a long phone call?

Wait, so then it was laudanum?
- Comment on I just want to make your teeth clench. 1 month ago:
Are you having some kind of wedding so you can marry the ketchups?
- Comment on How do I remove this printing that transferred from my dish washing gloves onto my cabinet door?? 1 month ago:
WD-40 or gasoline. Obviously be careful with the gas, and probably best to try it out on a hidden part to make sure it doesn’t eat the paint.
- Comment on Are there any cities in the Phoenix area in Arizona that are a lot like Kentucky cities like Richmond or Versailles? 2 months ago:
Payson probably has more horses and trails.
I knew people who owned half a dozen horses in Scottsdale (a Phoenix suburb), but that’s like $10M+ for a property like that within riding distance of trails or the mountain preserve
- Comment on Are there any cities in the Phoenix area in Arizona that are a lot like Kentucky cities like Richmond or Versailles? 2 months ago:
Buckeye if you’re talking about agricultural rural. Payson if you’re taking forest rural

- Comment on Slice of ketchup anyone? 2 months ago:
Those aren’t equivalent. It’s more like asking for mustard and someone says: no, but we have ketchup.

What do colorblind people see? Any color blind people out there?

Heh, chilly willy
- Comment on Don't forget the hoodie too. 2 months ago:
LMFAO. When I lived in Phoenix it wasn’t considered hot until it got above 100f/38c.
They typically have at least 100 days per year above 38c, but it’s a dry heat
- Comment on My brother wants to for Father's Day is volunteer at the local women's shelter. Not really a father but has two dogs. But is afraid to even ask because he is male. How does he go about this? 2 months ago:
What you CAN do:
Collect gently used clothing for donation. Many places can use just about all clothing, but I’ve heard requests for business appropriate or interview attire. Undergarments need to be new. Jewelry and accessories are often left behind, don’t forget these.
Collect gently used children’s toys (preferably not noisy ones).
Reach out to the shelter to find out if they have a preferred drop off time, or even better an off-site donation location. While you’re talking to them ask if they’re in need of anything else (food, tools, building materials, baby supplies, etc.)

For a short time they had zima gold, and later zima xxx flavors that were different colors.
