  Aye, but in colder temperatures tight denim cools over leaving no air pocket to trap body heat or improve wind resistance. There’s no one on this planet that can generate body heat on such a level it can counters the atmosphere, so creating a little atmosphere inside the denim with loose jeans is the next best thing. It’s the same concept as single vs double glazed windows.

  If you want tight pants in cold climate, need to use high textured material likecorduroy or fleece, otherwise add a thermal base layer under the denim.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We're deep into the baggy era mate⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve always rocked regular or baggy. It’s a comfort and practicality thing. Having skinny jeans takes away the point of denim being durable and warm, something it needs to be loose for.

  Good for you, but you were better off staying quiet with that one.

  It’s always this unless you can think of a time you specifically damaged the port. And you’ll be surprised how much shit comes out with the tip of a plastic toothpick; how it was somehow actually managing to still charge in the first place lol.

  3, 17, 20. Depends on the season.

  Oooooooh…

  And now I’m even more confused.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Come, child, I have the best vintage of eggo⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t believe eggs come in that size, are.for regular customers, and there’s plenty missing. My household couldn’t get through a quarter of that before they went off. You’d want to be freezing them—which makes for shit egg cooking later—or just really fuckin’ love eggs.

  I assumed a person crashed into the school while starting a lesson. But that doesn’t necessarily mean the lesson made them worse. This is more that It’s like rai-e-aaaain!

  Ha, it roll much easier off my tongue much easierthan “pet peeve.”

  I’m reminded of this legendary bit.

  English by country or region is a bit of a hoot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pearson complaining about using Linux to access my course material⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Aw, manggg. But I just upgraded to Linux last week’s. Shoot…

  Back to being treated like an idiot, force fed bloat, having no control over my own PC, and taking four steps to get everything done but often ending up down a rabbit hole of 19 step troubleshooting just to say, “Fuck it! Fine! I’ll accept the new feature” then being toured on the new feature after it crashes first then won’t let you login, but finally you do and THEN you’ve got your file open but forget what for by then, all the while it’s notifying you of updates constantly but you won’t run them because noticed it’s contains the AMD driver which is the old one so Adrenaline will stop working but that also means Windows somehow undid the group policy fucking around you had to do has somehow been undone and they say Linux is hard.while.Windows thinks I’m the fucking idiot and- RAAARRRGH!!!

  snaps back

  Huh, sorry. I get flashbacks still. The doctors say with the right therapy, I’ll be better in a year.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I will step on you and spill your food, my small friend⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think 'peeve’is more American because it’s modern American-informal from ‘peevish’ so it’s not caught on much in other countries. You’d probably.also be confused by ‘pet aversion’ which is actually the original and popular term, with a pet hate being the most slack of the two pets.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I will step on you and spill your food, my small friend⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My pet hate. People That Type Like This, Causing The Inner Dialogue To Jar Each Word And Confuse Titles And Names Amongst Regular Words.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Relatable⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve swallowed water the wrong way and had coughing fit that cramped my gouche.

  I hope it never happens again, but I’m sure instances like that will increase.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Episode Releases Are an Outdated, Frustrating Way to Watch TV⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Weekly people can watch them once a week. The rest must watch them once a week, build a buffer, or just wait for the season, while avoiding spoilers for the latter two.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how do I avoid becoming conformist, lazy and completely incapable of learning something new?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, I will. I’m getting along in years and am about to pick up split boarding for backcountry. I could learn to just ski, but I’ve lived life surfing and skating, so I picked up snowboarding real fast and been doing that a while now.

  Kinda always been into the idea of towing with a snow mobile too, so maybe I can afford that around then haha

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how do I avoid becoming conformist, lazy and completely incapable of learning something new?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t act your age. Get to a point where you’re so dismissive of your age you have to think hard about what your age actually is.

  If I stopped and started doing things based on what I’m meant to do at an age, I’d be a miserable piece of shit. I just do and think what I want. When I’m 60, I’ll still be learning and doing what I want because I rejected the idea that I’m too old or too young for something.

  Rather than setting sights on what you want to achieve, set sights on what you never want to become. The rest just flows around that and happiness is always there because you’ve identified what unhappiness is and stayed clear of it.

  I just watched Buckaroo Bonzai having heard nothing about it. Fucking brilliant movie. I need to watch it again now that I know what I’m in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the person who winks the Winkor and the person who receives the wink the Winkee ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  -ar is a person that does a thing. -er is a person that does action of a thing. A winkar in practice is a winker, but a winker isn’t necessarily a winkar.

  But a winkee is definitely someone subjected to a wink, whether by a winkar or a just a normal person winking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's a sin in Christianity to consume media based on ancient mythology and folklore?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, but Paul kind of ruined Greece via Thessaloniki and Korinthos. Granted, the social hierarchy around the old gods backed by “the one true God for all” Christian narrative sure made it easy to turn common Greeks against their ancient culture and religion.

  Right? “Winning” what exactly? Reid Hoffman’s trying to be the best at being the most miserable and unfulfilled. The most regrets on his death bed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨At least Quark had some integrity.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I work in statistics and we never use girl of woman, only female. The line is vastly different in age and meaning depending on culture, religion, law, or heritage. Even in western societ, 13, 16, 18, and 21 are all valid before tipping to 40, 50, 60, 65, 68, and 70 where the term can be prefixed with some form of adjective.

  It’s old-fashioned. Just say female and every culture/society understands you without confusion or insult.
