Had a dirtbike with one, that counts right?

Army takes up to 36, and they’re decently disciplined. May have missed the boat on Marines though, and that’s where the true brainwashing occurs, in my opinion. And I don’t mean brainwashing making you want to kill and love war, I’m not fond of either, less so after than before. But structure is a very real thing, and developing good habits.

It about time this classic was brought to modern standards, although I’m not sure a Windows phone is exactly modern, but whatever!
- Comment on School pickup lines are wild 1 day ago:
Back in my day, the early to mid 90s, there were still pickups. There was a shorter line, it was easier, because there were fewer people.
Where I live now, and where I lived then, there was cutoffs for the bus, like a mile or more. My town now, barely anyone is a mile from anything. There’s one bus for the school, and they use it for underprivileged and disabled students. Everyone else is on their own, and so if you live a mile from school, having your four or five year old walk sometimes isn’t feasible.
We live about a mile from school. I drive halfway and park and we walk the other half, because I cannot stand the pickup line. But some people go, drop their kid, and head to work, and so it’s completely understandable that they use the pickup line.

Yeah, any tiny men’s shorts I have ever owned have had the interior hammock. Most of them were designed for exercising in, so they gotta be able to keep you from slapping around it’s not conducive to a good workout.

I have a pair just like the green check ones, and they have a cockball holder. Any pair of short shorts I have has genital containment. Big fan of silkies.

I think I carried stuff because of the cargo. When I left the cargo in the past, it was like a weight off my shins. I all of a sudden didn’t feel obligated to lug shit around. I was free

You’re opposed to stripping butt naked in the parking lot?
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 5 days ago:
I always just freeze while the car warms up. Driving with a jacket on is an absolute no-go. I see so many people do it and I don’t understand how, it’s restrictive and you will inevitably start to bake when the sun hits you.
- Comment on Why are people using the "þ" character? 5 days ago:
Yeah, if someone comes on here speaking olde English, we can chastise them as well. I remember having to read Shakespeare in high school and being like “the fuck is this nonsense.” It’s wonderful in context. This is a message board where we’re trying to convey ideas (generally stupid ideas), so it makes sense to stick to the guidelines.

Damn, anchors aweigh on this conspiracy, let’s do it.

I would’ve tossed in one baby carrot, to make sure it ripped 2.5 on the scale.

Slapping that ™®© on it and raising the price.
- Comment on And I'm not sorry. 1 week ago:
It’s funny, because the movie managed to bridge the chasm that is American puritanism. They threw boobs in a PG13 movie and parents were like you gotta see this shit child. It was an impressive feat.
- Comment on What was I thinking? 1 week ago:
I’m fortunate that a lot of stuff is east of me, and that leaving my house and going east on the nearby highway there’s a gas station right there.
But on that off chance I have to go north, I’m screwed. And those are the days I leave it for tomorrow.
- Comment on If a girl asks you if you're big, are you supposed to lie or not? 1 week ago:
Yeah, this seems like inexperienced people for playing via text, and I don’t mean that as a shot at either. Gotta get experience sometime. Definitely worth making a joke about it, but maybe after the fact.

I didn’t even see your username, you’re all in. Love it.

You mean tall, right?
- Comment on kya 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, driving slow is my solution for just a out anything that someone is doing stupidly on the road. Am I doing it to be petty? Sure. But is it also making the situation safer? Absolutely. So if I can justify my pettiness, you bet I’m going to do it.
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 4 weeks ago:
Yes, streaming, for me, is the gateway to new. I do use Spotify and I’ll say what I’ve said a bajillion times: It has shown me numerous new artists, a good many of which I have given money. It seems like a good deal.

Minius Cucumberius.

I’ll probably catch a little flak, but it’s sad to see the Forza name live on only through Horizons now. Motorsport was a great game.
- Comment on International travel 5 weeks ago:
The fun part about when someone tells me they’re from a place I’ve never heard of is that I get to ask them about that place now. I enjoy it. I don’t expect everyone to know it, but maybe I do expect them to be interested in conversation.
- Comment on International travel 5 weeks ago:
New York City generally gets folks understanding where I’m from, but I have the benefit of living an hour outside of arguably one of the most recognizable cities in the world.
I get what you’re saying, and I kind of use it as a tool to continue conversation. Any time I meet folks from somewhere else, I tend to ask them about it. I’ve had some long conversations about places I never knew much about with Uber drivers or waiters, and I suppose I project that onto people too, that perhaps they’re interested in the minutiae of life in northeast American suburbia. It definitely pales in comparison to people from war-torn African countries, but it is what it is.

I dunno, maybe it’s just me, but anytime abroad I tell people I’m from Jersey. First and foremost I identify as. New Jerseyan. “American” and “Canadian” are so incredibly broad. Are you from Vancouver? Toronto? Are you a Newfie or from Edmonton? Shit, are you Quebecois? The same applies in the US, I don’t for a second begin to think of any of the regions as being remotely similar. Northeast, Atlantic, Midwest, West Coast, all very different places with very different people. I didn’t include the South because they’re the worst.
So yeah, I’ve kinda always just led with that. Maybe us people from Jersey are just like that though, I dunno. I won’t lie, sometimes it leads me to saying things like “I’m an hour outside of New York.” I leave off “city” because New York State may as well not even exist, it’s essentially a barren wasteland of former mining towns that are in a depressed death spiral of long, gray winters and trips to the finger lakes.
- Comment on Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased... 1 month ago:
I’ve thought of this so many times. I’m fact, I’ve thought about a spring-loaded seat hinge that raises the seat unless there’s a person upon it. If the seat is always up, it is much less likely to be urinated upon. It takes the work completely out of the hands of the user.
- Comment on Who plays like that x_x 1 month ago:
Yeah, that’s why I played inverted for the longest time. Took a break from gaming for a bit and have since switched to standard.

Agree, but I also feel this way about ebikes and scooters.
