Excellent shitpost, I believe that’s what it’s called.

I don’t want to mess around with punctuation. It’s the same with height. Six foot? Great! 1.91 meters? What even is that!
Let’s remember where we are here everyone.

Yeah, it was 7F when I walked the kids to school this morning. 0C would’ve felt like a nice spring afternoon.

Got into crypto December 2017, which was a high back then, and then everything dropped 50%. But just held on. And so even though I’ve made a nice chunk of change since then, I’ll still hang on and wait for it to happen again.
I did the corona investathon as well. I’m not sure I have any of the same holdings I did then.
I think of it all as gambling, and I treat it as such. I have an $800 limit, because if I lose $800 it doesn’t hurt too bad, but if it goes up 1000% (looking at you BMR, you sweet sweet whatever you are), then you make a bunch. So just gambling.
Then there’s the retirement vehicles. Booioorrrrriiiiinnnnnggggg

And osmosis is the hyper fusion of water across a semipermeable membrane.
I failed biology because I just refused to study (was an idiot), but that one always stuck with me.

My old man was a fan of Yes, and so when they went on tour sometime around maybe 2003, I don’t recall specifically, Rick Wakeman came back to play keys for the tour, and it was a real treat.

Not an airplane fact, but when I took classes for driving ambulances (CEVO), they always cited 35mph as the speed where an ambulance can hydroplane on some amount of water that I cannot recall. Something with surface tension. I’m not a scientist.

I just made Serious Eats All-American Beef Stew earlier today, and they call for anchovies (which I had none, so I substituted fish sauce) as the umami bomb. But even for folks who get grossed out by little fish, it gets blended with chicken stock, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce (and gelatin), to create the base. Fish sauce has become a staple in my house for certain recipes, it’s great.

I have this idea for a dystopian story where we’ve figured out aging and can keep people alive forever, but it’s only done so that people can continue to work in order to pay off their debts, and only once you’ve done so are you allowed to die. And the people who administer the anti-aging treatment are also the ones who hold the notes on your debt. I’ll get around to writing it one day. I’m sure it’ll just be a copy of Running Man or something.

If I run for a full hour it’s about 800 calories, which gets me like six oreos and a glass of whole milk, which is all I want! Eat well all day, exercise, and snack at night. Just gotta run 8 miles.
- Comment on Teach me 4 days ago:
Ha, I’m the opposite. I’ll run every day if I can eat oreos every night.

“Did you remember to swipe your shoppers card?” Like, you fucking know I didn’t. You are the swipe, and you know the only thing I swiped so far was a bag of carrots.

Amen. And I know we all want to just agree with it, but propaganda is propaganda, and when people are painting it to fit the guidelines of communities (like this), it’s deceitful and wrong.

Ha, I’m out for over a decade at this point, and I’m kind of an “I did my time” Marine. I do have some friends still in, who I’m fairly certain they’re still wearing MARPAT digi cammies.
- Comment on Rules for a gun fight 1 week ago:
Nah, digi cammies weren’t gulf war. Dudes wore old deserts in Fallujah, IIRC.
I did boot in '09, and we qual’d ironsights, and got to SOI in August 2009 and we had ACOGs. I believe boot went ACOGs shortly after that. We also had A2s in boot in '09, and A4s in SOI. Full digi was sometime in 2004, and Fallujah was earlier that year, and so you saw guys in old cammies and digi.
- Comment on Rules for a gun fight 1 week ago:
Yeah this picture is confusing. I went to boot in '09. We wore deuce gear, but it was green. I can’t tell if there are picatinny rails on the rifles or not.
- Comment on YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD. 1 week ago:
You’re totally right. A war is the last avenue to take. But you also are here on Lemmy, so you must see the constant calls for US Americans to take up arms against one another, despite the fact that avenues remain.
Shit sucks here. Shit will suck a lot more if there’s a war. And it will suck here and everywhere else. A lot more.
- Comment on YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD. 1 week ago:
The half of Lemmy who are like “Why you guys no shooting?” I mean, to say something so stupid, one must think war and battle are just a walk in the park.

I think you raise a good point. There was a time when frugality seemed to stretch a lot further, like trips instead of just surviving. I toned down my drinking and eating out habits about three years ago, and boy am I glad, because I make pretty much the same amount of money. So I live about the same as I used to, without some extravagance that I was already doing away with.
I just need to choose some more extravagance to get rid of to future-prood myself, like heat in the winter, AC in the summer, and new shoes.

I appreciate your input.

I think they were just being sarcastic.
- Comment on What a great idea 2 weeks ago:
Not sure why you felt I attacked you, but that’s fine. We’ve obviously got different opinions on the matter, and that’s okay. If it’s because I called the argument stupid, I didn’t mean for that to be a reflection of you, it’s just the exact kind of false dichotomy you’re accusing me of here, and it’s tired and overused here and on Reddit.
- Comment on What a great idea 2 weeks ago:
I thought both arguments were stupid and so I chose to not continue typing. I guess everything can be used to discriminate against someone, so fuck it, let’s do nothing! Yawn yawn yawn.

I live in the US. I go to the grocery store a few times a week, I’m a small trips kinda guy, and it’s close to my home. Nine out of ten trips are fantastic, but every so often you just come across a person who parks their cart sideways in an aisle, or parks next to one of the stupid fucking displays they put in the already-too-thin aisles. This is excluding, of course, folks who take stuff out of their cart and leave it anywhere, because either they don’t realize (or are to embarrassed, for some reason) that you can just leave it with a person up at the register. And at the self-checkouts I do, from time to time, see someone with clearly more than 20 items, though the store folks are good about not letting that happen.
I never go to Walmart, so I’m going to assume things are much worse there.

Discourtesy is ubiquitous, all races, religions, and IQs.
- Comment on What a great idea 2 weeks ago:
I love how wanting people to be courteous and respectful of others is racist. I just want people to realize that they’re not alone in the world, and to please move your cart to the side of the goddamn aisle.
