Fair enough. Happiness is hard to find. If you can find some without hurting anyone, do it as much as you can, while you can.

How does that make you feel? Is that something you’re both into, or is this a story about how your divorce started?

- Comment on What was the actual reason for the crusade against NSFW games? 4 days ago:
The delisted games dealt in subject matter that is difficult to justify.
The problem is who gets to decide what’s “difficult to justify”. That should be up to the individual, not the payment card company.
MasterCard doesn’t need to help anybody buy “games” about incest, rape, or sexual assault of minors.
That might be your opinion, but again, who gets to decide what’s on that list? If you don’t think those games need to be played, then don’t play them. It’s not hurting anyone when someone plays a video game, no matter how icky the game makes you feel. No one is forcing you to play anything.

Also, forget about the massive amount of puts that were purchased against the only two airlines involved in the hijackings just days before the attack.
Oh, and forget about the fact that the building owner profited $300 million by purchasing an exorbitant insurance package after buying the building only nine months before.
Also, definitely forget that Building 7 and the section of the Pentagon that was targeted were housing all the personnel and evidence involved in the biggest financial crimes investigation of the century.

Ask New York City. It’s expensive af every time a change needs to be made underground. In many places it’s easier to let the damage happen and repair it cheaply.

- Comment on Air or electric powered? 2 weeks ago:
Convention. “Back in my day,” memes were made mostly in MS Paint or MS Word. With MS Word, impact was the default font for an out-of-box variety of Word Art. Since it worked well for the task and was easily accessible, it became a common choice, then a ubiquitous component of the “meme” format.

a reference to bootlegging alcohol
Kinda, sorta. “Mountain dew” is a euphemism for moonshine in the southern US.
The definition of “bootlegging” varies by who you ask. Some say it’s any kind of unregulated activity related to alcohol, which can include brewing; some insist it only refers to the smuggling or transport of the finished product.
So, depending on which definition of “bootlegging” you subscribe to, it may refer to that. But “mountain dew” means “moonshine” because most people who make it live in the Appalachian mountains
