I have one cat and a doggy door so it can go in and out as it pleases. A stray cat figured out it could use the doggy door.
I have two cats.

Back in my day, that family size box was about what the size of the regular box was.
- Comment on This used to be peak commercial humor 3 days ago:
The Taco Neck Ssyndrome commercials were also great, but then whiny people with “tension neck syndrome” got all cry baby about it.
- Comment on Murica 4 days ago:
Because there’s no Microcenter in my city.
- Comment on Anon wants to be a singer 1 week ago:
Not really a “trope” since singers used to, and probably some still use it. The sprays usually contain menthol, eucalyptus, and glycerin, to moisturize and soothe their throats.
- Comment on What Did William Burrito Mean by This? 1 week ago:
I drank with 5 Mexicans at a restaurant total strangers and we could barely talk to each other. Used some Google translate. Great guys and gals. We drank some modelo and tequila. Chill as fuck.
- Comment on While checking on my business insurance policy I found out it was canceled 1 week ago:
Did you pay a deductible or anything for that? Your shouldn’t your neighbors insurance have had to cover the damage done? I’m not too sure how fire damage in something like a strip mall is handled.
- Comment on meirl 1 week ago:
No “Dogma”. No one has ever streamed Dogma.
- Comment on where?? 1 week ago:
The cool alignment is when they’re in alignment all pointed straight at the earth, so you can’t really see them all spaced out like this one.
It’s a known fiction plot because while the planets do come somewhat close to lining up somewhat often (depending on how loose you want to define somewhat close, and if they also have to be all on one side of the sun), they never actually do. The planets have never actually all lined up perfectly and aren’t likely to do so any time in the next 13 trillion years. A moot point since our sun will be burned out a thousand times over by then and the whole system will have fallen apart.

I see someone owns a 3d printer.
- Comment on Attempt to motivate people to take the stairs 1 week ago:
Because there’s more of one sweetener and less of another.
- Comment on Attempt to motivate people to take the stairs 1 week ago:
Fun fact: coke zero uses the same sweeteners as diet coke. Just different amounts/ratios.
- Comment on my version is better 2 weeks ago:
Damn it, Mr.Ingle. Can you not sing “in the garden of eden” without sounding like you have a mouth full of pudding?
Fuck it. We’ll just change the name of the damned song. Who the hell makes a 17 minute long song, anyhow? You’re a damned idiot!
- Comment on Attempt to motivate people to take the stairs 2 weeks ago:
By far. Is one can of coke worth a 1 1/4 mile run?
- Comment on Gottem. :) 2 weeks ago:
Lol. You’re a damned idiot. I’m not really sure you can “learn” basic reading comprehension, but maybe you’ll manage it someday.

What part of “I know gravity travels at the speed of light” do you not understand, to make you think you’re explaining something to me?
- Comment on Gottem. :) 2 weeks ago:
I know gravity moves at the speed of light. I’m just referring to the slight pull of the gravity and the sudden shift to traveling straight off instead of a circle.
- Comment on Gottem. :) 2 weeks ago:
But will we feel the shift in gravity as the planet starts moving straight?
- Comment on If you can find the oil filter, I'll give you a quarter. If you can get it out after the lube tech tightened it to 325 lbft, I'll give you sixty bucks. 2 weeks ago:
You see where that filter is. You damned well know it was tightened with just a hand and no tool was involved. OP just needs to pull out his man hand and power that sucker loose.
- Comment on Is there a better sequel than Terminator 2? 4 weeks ago:
I really wish they had made a 23 jump street. 22 jumpstreet wasn’t as big of a jump in awesomeness like T1 vs T2, but it was still an even funner movie than 21 and I’m sad they didn’t milk the franchise for one more film. Especially with all those baller ideas they had at the end of 22. Lol
- Comment on Is there a better sequel than Terminator 2? 4 weeks ago:
Number 5 is ALIVE!
- Comment on Gotta be quick 4 weeks ago:
The wick soaks up the fuel so it lights up easy and stays lit, while also plugging up the hole so the fuel doesn’t spill out of the bottle until after it’s thrown and breaks.
- Comment on Gotta be quick 4 weeks ago:
Sometimes. And then you have a puddle on the ground on fire. No sweet explosions or sounds or anything.
- Comment on Gotta be quick 4 weeks ago:
Fun fact: If you don’t throw it, not much happens, really.
- Comment on This could be the costume for a New Super Hero. What would you name him? 1 month ago:
BeeRa.
- Comment on Nintendo Responds to Leaks: "Not Official" 1 month ago:
The speculation is free buildup and helps create demand anticipation. Leaks and speculation like this are great advertising. It only becomes bad when the leaks and speculation created are better than what the actual product is, or a lot worse than the product is.
If the speculation was going around that it would be backwards compatible with all former Gameboy cartridges and include free downloads of any Nintendo games older than 5 years, Nintendo would quickly release the real specs/info.

Some are stunted enough to just be happy. Often times it’s the ones between 75 and 90 who are the worst. Some because they’re smart enough to know they’re not smart and it makes them angry. Some are dumb but think they aren’t.

I didn’t want to type out paragraphs worth talking to a brick wall.
It’s not the internet job to safeguard your kids. That’s the bottom line. All of this regulation and moderation is just stepping stones further to a controlled and moderated internet. Y’all just want to slowly add more and more limitations and training wheels to life and you’re giving up our own freedoms and rights to do it.
Tell me, who decides where the line is drown between allowable and not allowed? How are millions of hours of content supposed to be moderated by decency police to make that decision? How well do you think something automated can be that would do it?
The fine isn’t the point. Yeah, ten million is nothing to a large company. But what it really does is create censorship “for the children”.

By your logic, just blame the parents. They have the ultimate responsibility.
- Comment on Venezuela fines TikTok $10M for fatal social media challenges that led to the death of 3 teenager, intoxication of 200 others 1 month ago:
Right. And how are you supposed to train an algorithm to filter out any stupid thing a kid might try that’s dangerous? The possibilities are endless. Maybe the parents shouldn’t let their 13 year olds have unrestricted phones and access to tik tok.
