  In a car, sure, since 99% of the seats face the front. Same for an airplane. Left is left, right is right.

  How would you do that with for instance a classic rowboat? Then your left is on the right side, no matter how you turn your head?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tattoo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Because port/starboard refers to the left/right side of the ship, regardless how the person orientated. If you are facing the front of the ship, then yes, port = left. If you are facing the back of the ship, port = right. So it is very handy to have words that always refer to the same part of the ship.

  (All the other terms, like front/bow and stern/rear, who cares? I dunno.)

  Literally? Where do I say that?

  But thanks for that conclusion, great. Very constructive.

  Anyway, see ya later

  I don’t hate, but do like to give options.

  Y not both? Plenty of hate, enough for plebes and elites

  Good to hear that you know your options and what to do/eat. Do you use water/bidet instead op TP? And yes, surgery is annoying with the weeks healing after the procedure. Good luck in any case!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon misfires⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Your username weirdly checks out…

  And on a side note: there are a lot of ways to cure/alleviate piles. What are your weapons of choice?

  I’m not sure if you’re pulling my leg, but sure, I get that. But what is a single/double/triple stripe month?

  Now I am really curious…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2021 Nigerian Prophecy Calander⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  What do the number of black stripes under the months designate?

  “How about we do THAT first.”

  Why not do both? Why make it an OR decission

  Tax the rich and push for government reform.

  Well, to be honest, apart of the aliens thing, everything you said is true.

  So how is your housemate wrong?

  And aliens? That’s an American thing. Only Americans are abducted and only America gets attacked by aliens in the movies. (And South-Africa)

  No, you’re being downvoted because your post suggests that you basically reward them by not leaving. That their scummy change doesn’t affect you is lucky for you, but don’t ‘gloat’ in a topic where the TS is saying it does affect them.

  You know, empathy? Or at least show some solidarity.
