- Comment on Darkenstein 3D free on Steam 1 week ago:
Is this the greatest game ever written?
No. It’s just a tribute.
- Comment on Why do so many hand dryers not dry hands? Am I doing something wrong? 1 week ago:
Very regional.
In areas with high humidity they don’t work all that well
- Comment on Not promoting hate speech but what happened to all the slights/slurs/vulgarity from like the 20s and 40s. There were so many. Now it seems well I can only think of three? 2 weeks ago:
“Alabama Ingenuity” is the phrase I typically use these days.
- Comment on Aight. Let's be honest. How many of you dress for yourselves, and how many dress for others? 2 weeks ago:
I dress to avoid indecency charges.

Depends on the face?
If it’s your mom’s? Absolutely.
- Comment on How did easy access to Porn while growing up impacted Gen-Z ? 5 weeks ago:
Probably the same way easy access to it affected my own generation.
Not a damn bit. At least one out of every friend group had a dad with porn magazines and tapes, and they’d get passed around during, and after school.
I was born in 1976.

I just tried to turn my comment into a lisp joke, but realized I don’t really know lisp as well as I used to 35+ years ago, and I’m not going to reteach it to myself for the sake of a joke. Sorry. 🤣😂

works in a literal jail
Of course, the 20 years of trucking has made my butthole very tough.
Wait…
That did not come out right!

- Comment on YouTube Is Pausing Premium Family Plans if You Aren't Watching From the Same Address 1 month ago:
Because fuck truck drivers, fishermen, pilots, traveling salesmen, and all those other people who routinely spend weeks or months away from home, and still wind up with a few hours a week of free time to watch streams.

Yeah, when I was driving semi trucks, I had to get a medical card renewed every 4 years, but if my BP was over a certain limit when I got the physical to get said card, it would be reduced to 2 years.
I was borderline on that, and mentioned it to my PCP at a visit for an unrelated issue, and he decided that yeah, it was borderline high, and that we should be proactive and go ahead and start me on a mild-ish BP medication, and then he said “Ya know what, your cholesterol is starting to go up, too, let’s go ahead and do something about that, too.”
Prevention is the best cure.

Heart’s fine. Just a little HBP and HC which I’m medicated for. There’s a slight murmur, but no real concerns at this time. Former trucker who didn’t go to a quack for his required 2yr medical checks. :)

Old fart here. (49)
Trust me. It gets worse. If I don’t drink water before bed, I will have a major headache when I wake up due to dehydration. If I do, I won’t sleep through the night, as I’ll be waking up 2 to 3 hours before I need to.
And that’s if I’m lucky. If I’m unlucky, it’s less than 2 hours before, which makes it impossible to go back to sleep and not sleep right through an alarm.
Now I know why old men are typically so grumpy. Everything fucking hurts, and you don’t get enough sleep.

Propane doesn’t need electricity to work… The tank is pressurized, and opening a valve allows it to flow.

Houses are too big + the yards too small.
No thanks.

Pretty sure he meant gated community.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Yes. Google far-field wireless power.
It’s not really ready for prime time, and there are a lot of things still needing to line up for it to become ready, but it’s coming eventually.

It’s exactly the opposite of what created Putin. He came out of the KGB state security service with control over the elite and the powerful.
How did those elite powerful get to be elite and powerful?
They were the product of a powerful central government giving them said power.
When the people are afraid of the government, there is tyranny. When the government is afraid of the people there is liberty.

You are wildly off base if you think I have any love for that monster.
You are also completely wrong in that oppression is the natural state of power.

How would you stop them from doing this?
By dismantling as much of the power structure as I can. As often as I can.
Burn.
It
All
Down.

The problem is that government even has the power to do those things.
And to paraphrase you, you can’t solve government problems with more government, I’m sorry, man.

Rofl. Your god can eat a dick. I’ve seen exactly what your god does.
It’s easier to start a competing comp than it is to start a competing government.
You need a powerful standing army for the latter, and standing armies are part of why we’re in the trouble we’re in.

How naive can you be? You think your vote matters here?
When every single district has been gerrymandered to death for 100 years, nobody’s vote really matters anymore.

So you want Trump and MAGA politicians to be able to deny your payments instead?
The problem with “just let the government do it” is when the government is run by people like this.

Insane that it wasn’t, “Oh, you’re trying to blackmail our government? Here, have an airstrike.” TBH
