You would have to be a incredible shot but a 22 lr will still fuck you up or kill you at that range. It’s always foolish to act like a 22 is a toy round not to be taken seriously.
- Comment on Does voting for Biden change anything if I live in a deep red area of my state? (Ohio) 5 months ago:
Always vote, no matter what. If everyone who said it doesn’t matter voted your red state might turn blue or at very least purple. Even if it still stays red it will be a sign that people are rejecting Republicans and could force change. Plus lots of races aren’t just for president and are local things which can be won with less then 1000 votes in many places so vote every time always.
- Comment on Awnings: a simple cooling tech we apparently forgot about 5 months ago:
That combined with building materials, where I live we build out of Adobe and my house stays warm in winter and cool in summer, the outside looks like mud smeared on the walls.
- Comment on Lots of times the restaurants won't even have milk 6 months ago:
Worked in restaurants for decades and never had a place not have milk available. It’s used in lots of recipes and a lot of the places had Lil cartons for kids, also every drink was available “virgin” if you wanted a cocktail without booze, or we would have apple juice, orange juice, etc. I have never seen a restaurant that does not have a wide selection of non alcoholic drinks. Do you want them to list Arnold Palmers or are you asking for every type of non alcoholic seltzers or non alcoholic ciders or non alcoholic beers? Most restaurants have one or two but the non drunks don’t drink 6 non alcoholic beers so it’s just not worth the cost and room of keeping a large amount of non alcoholic pre made drinks. So stop complaining and have a water like a real man
- Comment on Put Vincent Namatjira’s work in Times Square [Indiegogo campaign] 6 months ago:
I guarantee that the painting is worth a lot more now, and I would never know about the artist if it wasn’t for all this so in a way it is promoting Australian artists
- Comment on How do people actually dumpster dive to get free food? Are there any other cheap/free ways like this to get food? 7 months ago:
For the business I worked at we locked them because if it was open people would fill them up in a single night meaning we had to pay extra for a early pick up.
- Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house? 8 months ago:
For what I do for work and the shoes I like shoes with laces are the only option
- Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house? 8 months ago:
I don’t shower 10 times a day but I do leave the house in and out at least that much and not just little quick trips I could wear slippers, I’m not gonna lace up my boots 10 times and unlike them 10 times everyday. I also don’t have filthy carpets so it’s easy to clean my floors.
- Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house? 8 months ago:
Did your wife grow up in a house that was all carpeted? And did you grow up in a house that was cement or wood? I could understand not wanting shoes on inside if it was wall to wall carpet or rugs.

Yeah, I was alive. I’m 40 years… he was never good as a stand up comic. Go watch his stuff in the early 90s it’s garbage, he is a great writer/sketch person

That’s just your opinion, I liked his sketches but his stand up never really made me laugh.

Chappelle always sucked at stand up.
- Comment on Assuming a button that, every time you push it, your intelligence goes up. The obvious and sane thing to do is to push the button all day. Yes? No? Maybe? Is there something that I'm missing here? 1 year ago:
I am smart enough to know things are bad I would rather not know just how bad things are
- Comment on How do poor people in the states give birth without money? 1 year ago:
For stuff like in and out treatment you can but if you need ongoing care or prescriptions it would be difficult and either way if you get caught you are gonna get in trouble, fines, possible jail time so it’s best to just give your real info and just not pay or plead your case with the indigent fund hospitals usually have. All that said I’ve known plenty of people who have given fake info and have has no repercussions

It’s worth a try. Marmite for the middle east

You could just turn it all into glass. Realistically as long as it’s some holy place there will never be peace unless we actually kill everyone

When asked where I’m from I say my state, I don’t say I’m American.
