  This is how you start the Great Robot War.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How can you make sure the ashes you get after a loved one dies is actually theirs?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is how it was done where I worked. If you asked for ashes, we just went and scooped out an appropriate amount of ash. Sometimes the animal was still just sitting in the burn pile (we only burned on certain days). Also the ‘cremation’ furnace was just a modified 50gal drum. So you had to cut up any of the larger dogs. Small animals (kittens or anything smaller than a regular sized cat) we just threw in the dumpster.

  As you can imagine, that job sucked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would it have made sense in the 80s to believe there were dinosaurs 40 million years ago ?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I subscribed to all sorts of newsletters, and at least one was dinosaur specific. I would also write professors at local colleges with questions and usually get a response.

  Also worked at the library and could order just about any book available. At that point most libraries would order books if they didn’t have them available already.

  But mostly newsletters and science journals until BBS became more common and user friendly when we first started having available computers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I like women but I also like cock but I'm not otherwise attracted to the male body at all. Wtf is my sexual orientation?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Very similar position here.

  I’ve always felt that it wasn’t anyone’s business but my own and the person I want to touch. I don’t worry about putting myself in a box so I don’t wear a label.

  Those that “need” to know are told that I am “independent”. What does that mean to me? It means I decide who I want to fool around with. Sex is more than just tabs and slots.

  Although I have found that this answer is unacceptable to nearly everyone, so I can’t say I recommend it.

  Does BK still say “Have it your way”?

  Or M&Ms “Melt in your mouth, not in your hand.”

  Can I pick where they put my extra finger?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some neat things you carry around that come in handy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  At one point I had what we called the commuter chain saw. Battery operated with a 6in bar. Kept it in the side trunk pocket. Only need it once or twice a year, but it beats hiking to the house and carrying a full one back. Especially since trees don’t fall across the road during nice weather.

  Pretty sure you can just reverse the polarity.

  I would install drag strip start light aka Christmas Tree on the bridge.

  It would use the sounds from Atari 2600 Pole Position.

  ‘Computer, assume the position.’

  You might be awkward in public but you’re still human.
