That’s what I keep saying…
- Comment on Candy 3 weeks ago:
When we were finally able to buy our first home, it was a real shock for me the first Halloween. People didn’t tend to go door to door in our apartment complex, they went to the surrounding neighborhoods so the only people that came to the door were those few that had very young children and were neighbors we saw regularly.
After the first few groups of trick or treaters I told my wife I felt like I was committing a felony every time I open the door. Thankfully, over the last few years a lot of the mothers of the younger children started dressing up with their kids. Now I can just be a perv staring at the mothers in there sexy Halloween outfits rather than trying to avoid looking at the jailbait. - Comment on Candy 3 weeks ago:

That’s lovely. And the best part is that this could response could be automated with a bot.
- Comment on Why are people doing this at voting locations in the USA? 4 weeks ago:
Originally the idea was intended to provide and more equal representation.
In a dense urban setting, the different minority groups tend to cluster together but those clusters rarely follow any kind of orderly district lines. In a randomly divided district, the minority groups are often in contention, so usually won’t vote for each other. This means that the the winner tends to be the white guy. If instead, you shape the district to follow the different clusters, then each minority group is much more likely to be able to vote one of their own into office. Unfortunately, the rules that were created to make things better for minorities were also able to be weaponized against them and eventually against the majority itself. - Comment on Why are people doing this at voting locations in the USA? 4 weeks ago:
The law says that you have to have X number of machines per person in each district. It also says that noone should have to drive more than a specific distance to get to a polling place.
So the GOP drew the maps so that districts dip into very dense parts of the city, but then explode outwards for hundreds of miles. Now that district may have a thousand machines, but they are spread across thousands of square miles so that random farmers out in the middle of BFE have not just one, but multiple polling machines just to themselves, and all the inner city people have a choice of either standing in line for 2 hours to vote, or driving for 2 hours to get to one of those BFE polling stations and then driving 2 hours home. - Comment on How do you even post that much 1 month ago:
No, you dump the cargo to make it more maneuverable, that way you can do a sick drift.

In Paris they have the metric
Paris you can buy a beer and McDonald’s, you know what they call a quarter pounder with cheese? They don’t call it a quarter pounder with cheese, and again the metric system, what do they call it they call it a Royale".
The Quarter Pounder is sold under different names in countries that don’t use the pound as a unit of weight. In France, Belgium, Croatia, and Cyprus, it’s called the Royal Cheese. The reasoning behind this is that they use the metric system so they wouldn’t know what a “quarter pounder” is.

<exploding-head.gif>. Holy shit dude… A significant portion of my life just snapped into focus with an almost audible click. I got an actual head rush as my brain went into overload trying to re-sort pretty much it’s entire contents.
I know this is a throwaway comment for you, but this shit explains so much of my life. - Comment on Caption this. 3 months ago:

Robertson is the proto-torxs. It is a vast improvement over Phillips but has a tendency to snap the head off due to the increased amount of torque you can apply. Torxs maintains the amount of torque that a Robertson can apply, but adds some material back to the head giving it a little extra strength.
It’s really unfortunate that the greed of Robertson and Ford got in the way of such a vastly superior design. - Comment on academia 4 months ago:
I’ve been there, in fact I lived there for a long time. Depression is soul crushing. The really suck part about it is, it not only makes everything feel worse than it is but it actively makes everything worse. I hope you can find your way out, like I did.

Yes, these stories are either outright lies, or are about rich people not being willing to wait their turn. Meanwhile, here I am drowning in medical debt, putting off getting procedures done, and trying to decide if I would rather just live with my dental problems, or risk getting kidnapped and murdered in Mexico, because they have so many Americans crossing the border to get dental work that they have not one, but multiple top tier dental towns.
- Comment on American healthcare be like 5 months ago:
That’s not the advertisement that you think it is. If you think about it for even a moment you’ll realize that it’s because we prioritize the wealthy in the US. Sure a rich person from Canada can come down and get a procedure in a moment’s notice but how many Americans have to leave the US to get the procedure themselves or even worse are never able to get it at all?

- Comment on Public trust 8 months ago:
Pretty much every study agrees, cloth masks are not as good as n95 or surgical masks. They don’t however say that cloth does nothing. Also I have not been able to find even 1 study that looked at multilayer cloth masks. Some even state that multilayer would probably do much better than single layer, but they weren’t even going to test them to see. Pretty much every study is focused on how well masks protect the wearer, but very few focus on how well they protect others from you. The only study that I found that does talk about it, says that while less than n95 masks, that even cloth masks have a significant affect on your spreading of the virus.
- Comment on I Can't Drink Now Like I Used to a Few Years Ago (26M), is that Normal? 1 year ago:
Wait until you hit the “feeling shitty and ruining your entire day by sleeping too long” stage. Its a really fucking treat… At some point, you’ll realize you can cheat by getting up and then taking a nap or 2 later (not too long though, they have to be short naps). But then you will slowly enter the next stage which is “I can lose consciousness during the day at any point, and often do involuntarily, but once the clock hits 8pm, I am wide fucking awake and likely to stay that way until 5am.”
- Comment on How to deal with annoying co-worker 1 year ago:
I can’t emphasize how much this is the answer. Document your annoyances, document other peoples complaints, document the times you have tried discussing it it with him, and document how he responded. Document the fuck out of everything, because if you are his supervisor, this is going to blow up in your face no matter what you do and you need to be building yourself a blast shield asap. This guy is obviously very manipulative and portrays himself as the victim. When the shit finally hits the fan, he is going to sling it everywhere, and as your direct report, it’s going to pile in your lap.
When you take it up the chain, you don’t even have to take it up as a complaint. Ask for help and guidance in a situation that you fear is going to go bad. You have a guy who is a really good worker, but you fear his antics are going to run off other employees, or even worse, result in HR complaints. - Comment on My elderly parents' car broke down a couple hundred miles away. How can I get them and their car home (or fixed) with a minimum of cost and hassle? 1 year ago:
My auto insurance covers tows up to 200 miles, so you need to contact them and verify.
The thing is, even if they only cover 50 miles, they will pay the 50, then you only pay the extra, so I would get some quotes. If you have AAA, then like others said, they never check for id… but I understand why you don’t want to worry about risking it, so just drive out there and then call AAA and tell them you were driving their car. Then drive them home in your car while AAA tows thiers. - Comment on Sometimes I question my sanity 1 year ago:
