Cigarette smokers. Mostly because I hate the smell and smokers have their sense of smell damaged so much they don’t notice. And sometimes when it sticks to their clothing I just can’t be around them at all.

I once had my power supply die on me and had an assignment due very soon that I needed to work on. So I biked down to Best Buy and bought myself a replacement. The replacement didn’t work and when I looked closely I could see the capacitors inside were all corroded. So I was a bit tired and I took the bus back to Best Buy to make the exchange. The replacement also did not work, it was missing a wire connector. At this point I cried a little bit and asked my sister to get me with her car so I could get another replacment. I was sad that it came to that.

Nae king!
Nae quin!
Nae laird!

We willna’ be fooled again! CRIVENS!

The rest of the time you’re using your truck for menial tasks you’re spending much more money on vehicle maintenance, not to mention the overall cost of a truck over a commuter vehicle. And people aren’t make of limitless money, they’re just going into debt to get these bigger vehicles.

Spend a little time to save a lot of money.

With all the wildfire smoke in the air, I’m actually sorta interested in these now. I wonder if you can get em cheap.

You can rent a fucking truck if you need something long or tall. The only people who need trucks are people who are doing that kinda stuff on the regular. I just got to the hospital and this huge truck pulls up to the handicapped area and two elderly people got out, very carefully since they needed to climb down. They do NOT need a truck.

edit: Sorry, I thought this was /c/fuckcars

I had a friend that was so into Blood even before it was released that he toured the development studio. Pretty neat to see it here. I have memories of it being a pretty neat deathmatch game for my clique of friends. I think we got at least 4 of us playing at once. But I don’t remember much of it. Maybe I’ll give it another go. I replayed Duke Nukem 3D recently with the developer commentary and that was pretty fun.

Look, in today’s world the entire banking sector relies on private communications to operate using the Internet. Why can’t private citizens get the same?

I was so scared of high school final reports because of this movie. I thought they had to be on stage in front of the entire school.

Same with me. They just embody relaxation and good times. Makes me smile when I hear steel drums.

If you got it, flaunt it.

Reminds me of Alcatraz vs The Evil Librarians. The main character’s talent was breaking things. Takes a while for them to turn it into something other than just a curse.

Just to show the scope of talents in the book, the main character’s grandfather was late to everything. Someone shooting at him? He’d arrive too late and the bullets would miss.

I’m just joking and found it crazy that I’m literally watching the episode for the first time. It’s a pretty recognizable episode.

Spoilers! I’m actually 10 minutes into this episode right now, haha.

Seems unnecessary…

My mom used to misplace her keys all the time, so she bought this device that makes a sound when you whistle, and then you can find your keys. The main problem with it was that it would also activate when she laughed, like a depressed person who only wanted to fit in and would laugh along with you. But hearing this thing make a sound when you were laughing just took you out of the moment. Very annoying and the device didn’t last long in the household. I suppose nowadays you could get an airtag or similar for your keys.

That keyring is fobulous!

So far, I think I’d visit OP’s island over anybody else’s.

Mine would be Weird Al, Vengaboys, Dua Lipa and Barenaked Ladies.

Nice Lady and the Tramp stamp!

Yup. He said he basically said “Good, I look forward to it. It’ll be an easy win.”
