YOU SLEEP ON A FARM NAZEEM

YOU HAVE NOTHING IN THE CLOUD DISTRICT

Bitch ass posers thinking they’re better than us just because they walk around the fancy area of town sometimes…

Also your whole city is 30 people.

You ain’t fancy, bitch.

People around me put cones, trash cans, and even sawhorses to prevent people from doing this.

I’ll be honest, I have gone two extra driveway spaces to put my tires on someone’s driveway that did this when I needed to turn around. Just out of spite.

I get not wanting random strangers pulling in all the time, I used to get that all the time due to a U shaped driveway that Google used to direct people was a turn around spot for a missed turn. But it’s not a big deal, and unless I was asleep and my dogs woke me up I wouldn’t care.

Now, parking on a random driveway while figuring out where you are is weird to me. And also fuck all the cops who used to use my driveway to try and catch people speeding. You were visible from both sides of the road long before your radar can give you a reading. You did nothing but leech tax money.

I have strong opinions on driveways depending on who you are and why you need it but mostly it’s “you do you booboo”

Cavemen? Maybe 20,000 years ago.

10,000 years ago we were planting crops and forming cities. They weren’t built to last the ages like Rome, but dirt cities are still cities.

Besides, Ubumfejn-Hooga-booga is the FALSE GOD. The REAL God is Ubumfejn-Booga-Hooga. But nobody has worshipped her since 12,527 B.C.E. after a high-priest got drunk on fermented fruit and accidentally swapped the name while reciting The Old Ways, and who’s gonna correct the high-Priest?

Sounds like your friend is just lame.

In seriousness, 99.999999% of people will live a “normal” life, and very occasionally, someone might have a time or two that elevates it above “normal”. The percentage of people who live “above” normal lives is so tiny, physicists would laugh at you for using so many decimal places.

Wanting more isn’t a problem unless that desire is killing what you have to be happy about now.

In other words, “don’t let perfect get in the way of good”

And I’ve heard all the platitudes.

I like to make people uncomfortable when they start going on about how my wife and I should have kids. She had a TL and I had a vasectomy. I usually start off with “kids are off the table for us.”

We SHOULDN’T have kids because genetics on both our families are shit.

We WON’T have kids because they’re awful to deal with 90% of the time, and neither of us feel that the world will be a livable place in their lifetime so it would be cruel to have children anyway.

We CAN’T have kids because the medical procedures.

If someone gets pushy about it, I act emotional, burst out that after so many miscarriages we have given up on children and the person should learn to take a hint.

So far nobody has had anything else to say after that.

11 minutes vs 3 is a long time.

birth bath

Uhhhhhh you should probably at least drain out the placenta fluid…

It was a stereo from 1987.

Ye Olde Analog airwaves, no fancy digital nonsense.

I tested this with my Facebook app in 2013. Found a Spanish radio station, set my phone down next to it overnight, and for several weeks I was seeing ads exclusively in Spanish. Deleted the app the first day I saw them in Spanish, and deleted my account not long after that.

My wife still uses them after 5 years together and me pointing out all the times it’s obviously eavesdropping on us, and she’s even been creeped out by it before. Still uses it…

Unless my microphone and camera have physical switches, I will assume they are being used. Those little “your camera and microphone are off” icons in the corner of the screen don’t reassure me.

inb4 a bunch of junkies redditors justify their addiction continuing usage because [reason]

Is it considered normal to type out a normal question format when using search engines?

If I were looking for an answer instead of making a funny meme, I’d search “heat movie cast Angelina Jolie” if I didn’t feel like putting any effort in.

Then again, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. I’ve seen someone use their phone to search google “what is 87÷167?” instead of doing “87/167” or like… Opening the calculator…

People do things in different, sometimes weird ways.

At first I thought “wow, really? Only 8 seconds?”

Count out 8 full seconds in your head.

Now imagine you’re being hit by young teenagers with baseball bats.

8 seconds is a LONG time

The frequent lack of desire for people to experiment and learn anything on their own is very off-putting.

Any time I hear someone say “I didn’t think about that” when dealing with a very simple problem, I just want to pull out “How long did you piss on the toilet seat before someone told you to lift it when you go?”

Seriously, I shouldn’t have to describe how to remove the ball bearings from this part, because I explained how to do an identical one 2 minutes ago.

I love taking things apart to know what makes them work. Electronics and mechanical devices are fascinating.

And I don’t understand how someone can look at things and go “yeah no need to look any deeper, I know enough already”

Ah. Well that’s a relief, I removed foxit, and never had anything Adobe.

I open the pdfs in inkscape to pull the vector files and save them as an svg. There’s probably a simpler way, but this allows me to open the vector in a lot more programs like my laser software and my CAD programs.

The only pdfs that get printed like a normal person are small rc planes and the files are from trusted sources.

It’s nice to know I can do a little extra to protect myself from pdf based attacks though, thanks for the info!

Oh damn, that gave me flashbacks of trying to get my page to look the way I wanted it while knowing almost nothing about any type of coding…

You’re thinking of Lance Armstrong

He was a tall, bald black man who was a great actor and starred in movies like John Wick, and also did voice overs for tons of games, including Destiny.

This is such a weird comment, full of “NiCd batteries aren’t good enough so solar/wind are useless because we can’t store the power” energy.

It’s a test reactor, it’s meant to be smaller than the “big boys”, and in a few years it’ll be smaller and more efficient.

Sure, it’s not going to singlehandedly power an entire country, but distributed power is better than localized. 1000 small reactors placed all over means less likelihood of system wide failure than a handful of large ones.

"What were your expectations? "

That the world I was raised to live in still existed?

That the laws I’ve been told my whole life I HAVE to follow or I will be jailed actually mean something?

That literally any of the lies I was fed about alternative economic systems, religions/nonreligion, or stereotypes were true?

Unfortunately all we have is this shit.

gestures wildly at humanity and what we have done to everyone and everything in our reach

I might need a therapy or two…

Look, if you want to wrangle with a bear to try and get that pelt, you go right ahead.

I’ve had enough suffering in my lifetimes, I’m hunkering down and waiting for the department of temporal investigations to show up and take me home.

Besides, you need at least 3μg of pergium, which I’m sure I don’t have to remind anyone is not native to the solar system.

Unfortunately due to some temporal shenanigans, I’m stuck here without so much as a self-sealing stem bolt.

No transporter system.

Besides, why would I want to wipe my pattern buffer prisoners guests experiments?
