And did anyone actually use 60W bulbs in the first place? If you want to actually see something, and your room is bigger than a toilet, you're going to be using 75W and 100W bulbs.
You must be confused as hell by people with dimmer switches. It's almost like sometimes they don't want a fucking searchlight going off in their eyes.
Arbitrary definition arbitrarily upmodded. No one can be absolutely certain of the outcome of their actions. Not so long as we can't predict the future.
I can't be absolutely certain that if I detonate an H-bomb in your rectum it will kill you, but it's close enough.
Offer her a drink? Next thing you know you're being charged with trying to slip her a roofie.
Yes, I'd be interested to read some of the actual court reports of people who have been charged with trying to slip someone a roofie when all they've done is ask if they can buy them a drink.
Nope, the ACLU would just sue to shut them down again. Keeping people imprisoned like that is wrong and against ACLU ideals. Since when is mental illness a crime? If they were voluntary treatment centers, nobody would go there. Ever see the movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"?
There is obviously no middle way between "forcibly lock up anyone with even a minor mental illness for life" and "close all mental health hospitals and chuck everyone in them out on the street".
There seems to be a tendency among animal lovers to be anti-social. Whether it's fear of people or insecurity or introversion is unclear. I know of no science that confirms this, but many people do- even pet owners.
If you want to generalise about all pet owners, you are covering an awfully large proportion of the populace. Here in the UK, roughly 50% of people own a pet.
Perhaps to a lesser extent, it seems that gregarious party animals aren't particularly interested in four-legged animals. What do you think?
I'm not sure you're asking that question in the right forum.
Besides, a stray dog or cat did NOT CHOOSE that lifestyle.
No one "chooses" poverty and homelessness you dipshit, anymore than you've "chosen" not to own Google.
Right wingers generally believe that (a) all their own good fortune is because they are a good person and (b) anyone else's poor fortune is because they are a bad person.
My admin job involves the care and feeding, and updating and migrations, of an application server product that uses java for just about everything. It is not going away anytime soon.
There's lots of Cobol as the base of massive banking operations, yet somehow I wouldn't call Cobol thriving.
No, but the point is that Cobol is not going away anytime soon either.
I love the name of Musk's company. I LOL'd the first time I found out about The Boring Company.
It all seems a bit like turning up to a new job and seeing that the boss has a "you don't have to be mad to work here...but it helps!" sign on their desk.
It's Occam's Razor really. If the alternatives are (a) an elaborate conspiracy involving alien technology, unknown scientific principles and probably time travel or (b) a few people are lying to cover up an in house experiment gone wrong, sanity would suggest choosing the latter. (At the risk of being labelled a Russian Sock Puppet/Troll).
Four centuries of official denial have not satisfied independent investigators of the Bermuda Triangle. From the time of Shakespeare (The Tempest) to the space age, no official body will admit that the anomalies that occur in that area are of extraterrestrial origin. Even NASA will not acknowledge their measurements and probes showing the shifting and expanding of the Triangle with the ozone layer and global warming.
Is it any surprise that innocent, non-spying diplomats are suffering due to official refusal to admit the influence of alien powers over this area? Expect the zombification to continue.
All these people mocking the idea are probably the paid Russian trolls I keep getting warned about. Of course the irony is the same people warning me about Russian trolls are the ones mocking this story.
Every single posting on the internet is either by a paid Russian troll, or about a paid Russian troll, with an infinite regression of bluff and counter bluff.

So what magazines are in Barbershops these days then?
Maybe we're just wusses here in the UK, but I really don't remember ever cracking one off in public while I waited for a haircut.

all my life I've never owned anything that was a manual transmission, 2 seater sports car
You appear to have a word.
Most guys worry about being rejected and feeling bad, not getting tazed.
OP is on a whole other level of bleeding weird.

I have never heard of them, and the name sounds stupid. No, I'm not from the US.

Arbeit macht frei?
Well, there were good people on both sides in those concentration camps. Good people. On both sides. As well as bad ones.
The fact that government policies enable sloth doesn't help things. Round 'em all up and put 'em to work if they won't do it themselves.
Appropriate user name is appropriate.
It's not like the robots have mounted tazers that drive the homeless out, running for their lives.
Yet.
This. They should just be more awesome like you are.
You are cayenne8, aren't you?
He didn't mention his awesome sports car with built in babe in the passenger seat, so maybe not.
Not everyone gets the privilege of doing a job they love.
Learn to love the task you are doing. Every special snowflake thinks they are CEO material. Many are destined for a career of busing tables.
Self-delusion is not the key to happiness. You can learn to accept things without having to love them.

"I won't let some egghead tell me what to do".
This results in Brexit and Trump.
Wouldn't it be great if instead of laying them off they retrained them to build renewable products and invested heavily in the future?
Thanks, I needed a good laugh on a dull Friday afternoon.

Elon's core business is inspiring people to dream of a more exciting future
Thanks, I just threw up over my keyboard.

Finally some common sense.

It's basically a Russian doll of Russian trolls.
Yeah! And Lou Gehrig died of Lou Gehrig's disease. You'd think he would have seen that coming.
The old ones are the best.
that is exactly why SJW are scary as a group. Because "I don't like it" becomes "Should not be allowed" becomes "Illegal to say".
That is why RWNJs are scary as a group. Because someone saying "I don't like it" becomes in their minds "they want to make it illegal".
