    I just hollered upstairs to ask MFR if she smelled anything familiar. She said "I know what you are doing already - I'm on Facebook!".

    There are no secrets in the digital age.

    It’s as counter-intuitive as Zeno’s paradox. There’s an infinite number of rational numbers but they’re covered by increasingly small ranges. Like Zeno needs an infinite number of steps but each gets increasingly smaller.

    We've always gone for cheap and nasty with microwaves. I think we're on our third one.

    Not to worry anybody, but I'm not sure I'd totally trust the really old ones to not leak radiation. Then again, you could probably say the same about the cheap and nasty ones.

    Has other people’s celebration of Kwanzaa materially inconvenienced you somehow?

    Ask my dad. I get him a Kwanzaa gift card to Best Buy every year.

    It still gripes me that the press shields Biden from himself.

    Any chance we can find the actual article? Is it on Quillette?

    @89th funny, that.

    Remember, todays journalism is all about covering a story…with a pillow, until it stops moving.

    @89th said in Wind Resistance:

    That's one reason I don't even ride a bike, cuts down on air resistance by 80%.

    You will find that as you get older your resistance to wind decreases exponentially

    I mean, I could see that happening since it (and Google) just report the top web result. That being said, I highly doubt that was a top web result.

    Nobody who suffered from chronic righteous TDS has any standing ever again, for the rest of their lives, to claim respect for political institutions. Trump was duly voted in as president, that should have been respected on some level, and it was not. Instead, leftist pop culture demanded retribution against those who did the voting, and tried to tear down the presidency through relentless TDS indoctrination via the media and all of popular entertainment. TDS was a show your ass moment for 10s of millions of righteous group think board-flipping robots.

    Or to put it another way, in their case all the noise and racket were coming from the uninvited and unruly guests. In your case, the noise and racket were created by your bouncer keeping the unruly guests from coming in…

    BTW, you are allowed to dress 48 players for game day, from a 53-man active roster. The Saints only have 49 players available, counting active roster, practice squad and the janitors in the hallway.

    Wonder who the odd man out is?

    Number of lives saved from death by covid > 0, therefore not only a good idea, but the only morally acceptable idea.
