no worries about exploitation

Until De Beers starts synthesizing it.

Sometimes you need more than one teaspoon during a meal? Say if you have soup and tea and hate to eat soup with the tablespoon.

Garbage disposal? They have limited utility, but save you from having to transfer food scraps from the sink to the trash or compost.
The built in ice/water dispenser in the refrigerator is the one that mystifies me.

are you saying all I need to do is reverse the polarity?

How about someone who leaves the tea bag in the mug, sometimes for multiple days? Sips the tea with multiple bags still in it? It creeps me out and I am not even a big tea drinker.

I have repeatedly felt like taking some emery cloth to my neighbors ring door bell camera, which records me when ever I am in my front yard. There is an expense to replacing cameras and they seem like easy targets, if you go about it right.

I have reusable bags and place the items in them after I scan them. Saves a step.

Interesting. I can legally grow and process enough tobacco for my own needs.

I used to say ‘the bomb’ until I thought about it a bit. Am I really comparing your slick dance move to nuclear annihilation? How does that work out?

Found deep in the Linux networking code years ago: // this code is too ugly to live, but I don’t have time right now

Growing up in the 60’s I had a skateboard called a monster with a picture of a monster on the top. It had metal skate wheels on it. My uncle said they used to make something like that in the 40’s by nailing a skate onto a board, though it sounded more like a scooter since they usually added a handle to the front.

Venom? I thought they just mesmerized the victims with their eyes.

Are there many smart far right men that trump isn’t angry with?

Yeah, it is a bad tool for learning to speak a language.

You enter stage 2, and the leveling starts over, when it bleeds over into real life. Not documenting stage 1 stuff, but efforts to make it happen.

Pat Paulson had this bit on his show where he was the science guy and he would torture the young guy guest and try to make out with the young girl guest.

Trash collectors on my street don’t empty the can into the truck, they just grab the bag I put in and throw that in. That dog shit bag would stay in my can until I moved it to the larger bag. I should not have to do that.
