It is arbitrary! England declared themselves the center of the world, and everyone else went with it.

I do mine every time. I don’t like trying to figure out where I am on the cycle and $7 is cheap
- Comment on 5-minute oil change place 1 week ago:
I’m actually okay with someone charging an extra $15 to swap an air filter… if they are only charging a few bucks for the filter. It’s labor cost and I have fought with stupid air filter clips enough to know it’s not for everyone.
- Comment on 5-minute oil change place 1 week ago:
I had started changing my own oil about 10 years ago and my wife had a fit that I was spending $70 on oil and filter plus some supplies here and there compared to the $50 oil change.
We took the car there next time with the coupon. Wife came with me so she could make sure.
Oh, I only use synthetic, it says so in the manual. That was an extra $30.
The car takes 6 quarts, not 5. +$15
The filter wasn’t included. +$20
No, that’s not my air filter. I just replaced it last time.
Can you please deflate my tires back to 32 psi? 60 is too high. It says so here on my door frame.
+??? & Tax came out to $130.
5 minute oil change took like 30-40 minutes.
I still do so my own oil changes.

Alternate article from Fox

These worshippers were there to worship… hate?
The website for the event, www.maydayusa.co ends the about here: Today, in Peru, transgenderism is classified as a mental illness, and life is defined at conception.

Yeah, rubber mallets are still dangerous. That can be fixed with a sizeable donation to my prospective campaign fund.

Not sure if this is serious or a good troll. Providing your medical history unsolicited to a corporation is a terrible idea. The real purpose of this virtual entity is to collect information. You should break ties, as they do not exist.
For conversation you can still use discord. Alternatively, you can use IRC. I wouldn’t identify myself or put medical history there, but there are plenty of places to chat.
- Comment on Greg Abbott hits back at Jasmine Crockett for mocking his wheelchair use: ‘Nothing to sell but hate’ 2 months ago:
“I wasn’t thinking about the governor’s condition — I was thinking about the planes, trains, and automobiles he used to transfer migrants into communities led by Black mayors,” she wrote in a statement on X. “Keep that same energy for all people, not just your political adversaries.”
I could believe it, but it’s still bad taste in general to try mimicking the Trump approach. It’s bad optics, and name calling will only open a person up for a riposte. It’s always a bad idea to use a bully’s tactics because the bully has already thought through what they would do.

- Comment on Troy McMillan can't be bothered 2 months ago:
I understand that the language was polite, but in context it feels as if a student asks a question that was recently answered.
“That is a function of this process, and I described it earlier in class. Please check your notes for that answer.”

I am actually focusing on getting my server plus, so while it would be helpful, it might be focused on a single aspect.
