  Locks are not for stopping people from breaking in, they are for making it harder for people to break into your stuff, forcing criminals to find easier targets.

  I had a Chem class where the prof opened with “my goal is to fail as many Engineers as possible”. The average on the final was 27%. Luckly some important admistrator in the Eng department’s kid was in one of those classes and they got the tenured professor fired.

  I was in a long term relationship with someone with a drinking problem. When a drunk person says something to you they fucking mean it. Their filter is weaker and, as I label it “they have the courage to say something that they were afraid to say sober.” When you figure this out everything is easier to understand.

  How does it go when you remove them from a fully pressurized tire? I have only ever removed cores when the tire was empty or had a low amount of pressure.

  I don’t remember his music ever being cool or edgy. It was like drinking lacroix when soda is available.
