The weight of the motor is insignificant compared to that of the batteries.

I read it as they think they need to have a need for something to justify having it. I disagree with that premise.

I don’t hunt either, but shooting can be fun.

I never worried about my toddler shooting me, because I kept my guns in a safe.

People have legally defended themselves in that situation, yes- but first you have to survive until your court date.

But you repeat yourself. (Hasn’t it been shown there’s a high correlation between morning people and extroversion?)

I would love to have deep conversations about all kinds of things, but I have difficulty serializing my thoughts and converting them to words so even when I find someone with similar interests, it ends up being exhausting…

I grew up across the street from a large grocery store, and around the corner from a convenience store, but still my mom would stockpile many months worth of stuff like flour, sugar, oats, spices, tea…

people who just don’t understand how to shop around for shit and just eat the cost.

The problem is, you can shop around and find a good deal, but that good deal is “introductory”, only for new customers, so after a while the price goes back to “normal” and you have to do it all over again. Then you have to do that for every damn thing, it gets pretty tiring.

Explode doesn’t imply combustion…

I had a Hotmail account before Microsoft bought them…

I still have a Yahoo email account that I’ve had since 1997 I think… 7 letters, no numbers.

I have a .us domain, I don’t even remember what I pay, I only do it every 6 years, it’s so cheap…

Can confirm, was stabbed.
