$$$$$$

How are the defense contractors, and politicians going to get PAID if we aren’t constantly at war somewhere.

Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt by NiN

The video is beautiful, but the story, and timeline of cash’s later life, is heartbreaking.

It’s not flashy, it’s not in your face, but it evokes feelings in most people, and tells a story.

Driven plenty, still hate them.

I know you don’t want advice. I know, but, there are meal replacements, that aren’t nothing but sugar, corn and soy crap, and are much more nutritionally complete. May be worth looking into them. Huel and Soylent (sold in Target for sure) are the first that come to mind. I understand if your reply is “thanks” just wanted to throw that out there, because I feel your pain.

I have ALL kinds of GI issues. The latest GI I saw, after waiting like 2 years during covid (had one appt before lockdowns, and then had to wait), and then another like 4 months after I called to book an appointment, ran a HIDA scan, which came back as low/abnormal. His answer? Oh, well it’s too close to normal to do surgery, so just take miralax and don’t eat fatty foods. Gee thanks, why didn’t I think of that, professionally trained guesser extortionist? When asked if there were going to be long term effects from taking a laxative, like, idk making constipation worse, his answer? IDK, maybe?

Good luck

for starters people around here tend to misinterpret what you’re saying accidentally or willfully, far more than my experience with reddit previously.

Honestly, this is what has driven me away. No matter how innocuous something I say is, there are a bunch of “well, askshewly” asshats to argue an irrelevant part of your statement, or start the “whataboutism” shit. It’s exhausting, and frankly, takes all the fun out of it.

That and the bots reposting reddit shit. I may as well go back to reddit. Plus Narwhal is still working…

That’s the thing, I live near train tracks/station. The fucking train honks incessantly. There are like 4 or 5 intersections that train crosses in pretty quick succession, plus the station, so they just lay on the horn for a good mile. No one pays attention to it. It’s like the boy that cried wolf. It totally defeats the purpose of it’s trying to alert anyone to anything. Not to mention the noise pollution it needlessly creates. Idk who decided that was a reasonable solution, instead of putting up the people gates, but fuck them. That law needs to be completely abolished imo.

Typically, for me, it’s been a situation where the guy was really physically attractive, but a an absolutely horrible person.

I’m really not sure why you’re getting downvoted for this. It’s true. Whether people think it’s “tasteful” or not doesn’t change reality.

I grew up in San Diego, so huge marine and navy population. There are a handful of bars that are super fun to people watch at (typically JUST off base) for this exact reason. Alcohol and desperation make interesting bedfellows.

For anyone else curious about exactly that the competition entailed

Extreme Relaxation represents a unique experience for individuals to determine their relaxation skills in the face of adversities and stressors. Each player in the Extreme Relaxing Championships is equipped with a HR monitor given time to establish a relaxed baseline. During the competition, individuals will be asked to relax while being presented with a series of distractions, the individual with the smallest amount to change from their relaxed baseline will be deemed the winner.

Not exactly what I was expecting, but interesting.

Restaurant/chefs do sell menus to other restaurants/bars/chefs, so they may sell that off, but the public would never know about it.

You largely have intuit/turbotax/quickbooks/mailchimp/whatever other name they use for that process. Or at least the paying for it part

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but shit is literally aerosolized any time you flush the toilet. And it’s not contained the bathroom. And it doesn’t matter if the toilet seat is up or down.

Mythbusters did an episode on exactly that. It is worse than you’d think. I can’t find the actual episode right now, but someone wrote an article about it/the findings.

The other brushes were placed elsewhere in the home, including the kitchen and even an office on the other end of the building, and all of the other ones were rinsed daily but not used for brushing. At the end of the month-long experiment, the toothbrushes were analyzed by a microbiologist, and they found that every toothbrush had a microscopic amount of fecal matter on them, regardless of the distance from the bathroom. source

Bidet or not doesn’t matter. Shit is literally all over EVERYTHING. ALL the time.

Oh, and if we really wanna get fun about it, those hand dryer things……LOL dude. Sooooo much shit going EVERYWHERE.

It doesn’t spray INTO your ass. I mean, I guess it could, but you’d have to REALLY try to make it happen.

The samurai is an amazing little vehicle. They are pretty adorable too.

I know a lot of people think the same thing. I’ve even seen people say so on here/reddit, on other bidet posts.

Right? It’s really weird though because a lot of those same people talk about eating ass, a LOT.

It’s getting very difficult to find parts for the FB. There are a lot less people who know how to work on them, or are willing to work on them too. They are a blast to drive, and every time I think I should sell mine, I go for a drive, and remember why I can’t.

A few pics of mine…

There are a large number of Americans that think:

1. Anything touching them there makes them gay - still not sure how your hand and TP is any different
2. It will hurt - yeah… IDK
3. It’s gross, or it doesn’t get you clean - uh…wiping some paper on it does? how???

I’ve had mine for about 15 years now. It’s a 1982 GSL with all the original factory options. Mines pretty heavily modified though. It made a huge 89rwhp on the dyno out of the carb’d 12a.

Just about everyone I know has trouble fitting in all the fun cars. I’m relatively small, so I fit great in my rx7 and Miata.

I think you have to be part of the greater car community, at least, to know much about one, but probably a smaller niche of people looking for practical vehicles that are fun to know about the samurai.

I love the first gen RX7, and while far more well known (the FD anyhow), than the samurai, there is a LOT of confusion and misinformation out there about my car and the rotary engine in general. I feel your pain.
