I’m pretty sure the love for Warcraft III evenly splits X and Y.

Nah, alcohol shares the same boat. There are lots of examples if you really dig into the effects of various things. Alcohol and tobacco just kill you so slowly that it doesn’t drop profits.
That’s a culture-thing. I’m a member of two forums that are still pretty active. One views dead thread revivals as amusing, the other almost literally has a celebration in-thread when it happens as all the members with older posts in it come piling in. Heck, the second forum has a thread so active that people literally ask for, and get, recaps for the last X amount of time for it.
Uh… have you ever owned a car long enough to need new injectors, radiators, or exhaust systems?
I’ve owned three vehicles that surpassed 400,000 miles, with one approaching 600,000 now. I’ve replaced a radiator once, and it was because of a small boulder tossed by a semi. Belts are usually less than $60, and are only replaced after 120,000 or so. Your average driver won’t have to worry about those but once every 5-10 years. I’ve never had to replace a injector system (and if your dealer tries to sell you a service to ‘flush’ or ‘clean’ the injectors, decline; most auto manufacturers recommend not doing anything but replacing, as the service of cleaning/flushing is more likely to cause damage than actually be beneficial).
Fuel pumps are going to be brand-dependent. Don’t buy ford, because good lord they suck and the pumps do go out, but again, I’ve never had to replace a fuel pump (my three are toyota, honda, and volkswagen).
If you pay for a tuneup, you’re either racing or are a fool. One of those use cases isn’t relevant to a discussion about the average person owning a vehicle.
To be fair, he ate chips with a neat soundtrack and flashy cuts. Whooooah.
Yes, so much this. Every time I have to do something in the engine bay, I get a friend. A six-pack, a dinner, or whatever other small favor they need in return returns gold for pennies in the investment. If only the damn engineers would have the incentive to make working in the engine as easy as changing the oil (though Subaru even fucked that one up), life would be a breeze.
I’m pretty sure the post/phrase is the additional context. If I’m going to make a post about “there was an attempt to…” I’m going to use language to point out the boggartness of the whole affair. Like, really, who uses “behind” to refer to an ass on the internet? Put it together with the female part and the title was clearly trying to come across as asinine and mocking the incel language.
The hilarious part is, I really did read that in a sort of british accent. Just mentally put it as 'orn, ‘obby,’ and 'ydrogen atom.
Generally female and male are terms used in more ‘scientific’ or exact language. I wouldn’t say, “I met a group of females last night,” but rather “I hung out with some women at the bar.” It sounds awkward to use female/male in casual conversation for the typical English speaker. on the other hand, if I was writing a paper and discussing the research subjects, I would definitely say something like, “The research cohort consisted of 22 males, ranging in age from 21-34 years old (mean 24.5, SD 1.3), and 31 females, ranging in age from 20-39 years old (mean 25.6, SD 2.1).”
It’s come to be considered derogatory for the same reason as retarded, mentally challenged, intellectually disabled, etc. have come to be derogatory: feelings built by consensus and time. A large group of people don’t like the average ‘incel,’ and then they got the idea that incels were using the term ‘female’ in place of woman because they didn’t see humans of the female variety to be ‘people’ in the same way they viewed males.
Also, the 50% statistic is from all marriages, not first-time marriages. The figure goes way up due to people being divorced, married, divorced again, ad nauseam. I remember the first-time marriage divorce rate being somewhere in the range of 27-33%.
One day, I’ll play all the different white wolf games, FATE, and whatever else is in there. One day soon…
This is how a gang operates. It’s all about consensus building by braggadocio. Someone says they’re going to do something, and sees if enough others join them. Then they threaten the person who is their rival based on the number of people behind them. Unfortunately for the wagner fellows who proposed this, they don’t have anywhere near enough backing them to get putin to back down. They’re fucked.
Credit unions aren’t always perfect either. I switched unions because one started adding fees.
Don’t forget that there used to be literal assassins that would kill you if you tried to sell (as a retailer, obviously the resale by individuals was so small-time they didn’t care and hard to track) under the price you were told to sell it.
Your neighbor must be rich.
Vacation is the key word there. Living is different, because the services you’ll need aren’t necessarily available. We now have stopgaps for certain areas if you aren’t poor, like delivered groceries, but good luck in Seattle and Washington DC if you aren’t at least upper middle class.
Man, I hate that constant night/day rotation. I didn’t mind it when it was once per year, but when we switched to once per month, it sucked. I can’t imagine doing it every period.
Sure, that’s hilarious, but I’m pretty sure I remember actually being taught to turn on a computer (and monitor) when we were being taught about them in general. What do you think these kids should do, just know things?
Nutteman! Hey, Nutteman! Race war? Nutteman! Hey, Nutteman!
Where are you watching these episodes at? I think I watched the first episode on some streaming service a long time ago, and never got around to watching the rest.
