Closing loopholes is worthwhile, even if they’re not being abused yet. You say “if you see this happening, then you’ll have to vote”, but that thing that may happen is people being denied the right to vote. So if this starts to happen, it may be impossible to undo with voting.

This can only read as hypocrisy when you portray “everyone who plays video games” as a single character

Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing. The joke here is that designing a building like this creates a lot of work for the engineers designing the building utilities

If you’re an architect, understand that this is the MEP equivalent of fighting words.

Not a fruit i know, but if you like pineapple on pizza you might also like pickled onions on pizza

There’s at least one instance on futurama where a space ship is flown through a drive-through that’s just out in the vacuum of space

“Anything that isn’t nothing”

Helps me push through when executive dysfunction hits. Getting outside for even just a little bit is a whole lot better than staying inside while telling myself I’m going to run 3 miles, for example

And this is the magical part where we recognize that both can exist

Interesting in concept i guess, but orders of magnitude less efficient than a train.

In order for everyone to just freaking go, their cars would have to be attached somehow.

I wonder if anyone’s ever thought of linking a bunch of cars together so they can all stop and go simultaneously. And hey, since the cars are attached and all need to go to the same place, we can build a track instead of using high maintenance rubber on pavement and-

oop, we invented trains

add a hard hat and you’re in

When I said “emulsified with garlic” I was trying to convey the idea that the garlic is the emulsifier. “Oil emulsified by egg with garlic added for flavor” is not an aioli by its rigid definition, but it does fit the american colloqual use

Aioli is “garlic and oil” by translation. By definition aioli is a spread made from oil emulsified with garlic, which mixing garlic into mayonnaise does not achieve. That said, the colloquial use of aioli to refer to just about any thick smooth spread is well on its way to changing that. Pedants like me can fight it all we want, but languages evolve. It’s just what they do.

Tolerating boredom is a skill worth developing

I think of it as being (sorta) similar to spraying and wiping down a dirty countertop. The spray alone isn’t going to get it fully clean, but it makes the wipe about a thousand times more effective at finishing the job.

This is the way. Plus they’re usually mesh so you can just toss them in the fridge with your produce and it stays breathable

Don’t worry, they’ll be pasted on a farm upstate.

If someone’s using the reasoning of drunk drivers to rationalize their behavior, that’s not a great sign.
