SARGE

People around me put cones, trash cans, and even sawhorses to prevent people from doing this.

I'll be honest, I have gone two extra driveway spaces to put my tires on someone's driveway that did this when I needed to turn around. Just out of spite.

I get not wanting random strangers pulling in all the time, I used to get that all the time due to a U shaped driveway that Google used to direct people was a turn around spot for a missed turn. But it's not a big deal, and unless I was asleep and my dogs woke me up I wouldn't care.

Now, parking on a random driveway while figuring out where you are is weird to me. And also fuck all the cops who used to use my driveway to try and catch people speeding. You were visible from both sides of the road long before your radar can give you a reading. You did nothing but leech tax money.

I have strong opinions on driveways depending on who you are and why you need it but mostly it's "you do you booboo"

You don't KNOW you're being poisoned by CO but as I said, it confuses them into thinking they're fine. In their confusion, they can still do things and potentially even figure out a way out.

Nitrogen would be better. CO and CO2 both affect the human body in negative ways that tells the person "hey somethings wrong" or confuses them enough into thinking they're fine.

The human body has no way of knowing if it takes in nitrogen though, so you can be perfectly fine conscious and happy one second, the air changes to nitrogen and suddenly you're on the floor unconscious. If nobody collects you in time, well your brain can't live without oxygen.

Cavemen? Maybe 20,000 years ago.

10,000 years ago we were planting crops and forming cities. They weren't built to last the ages like Rome, but dirt cities are still cities.

Besides, Ubumfejn-Hooga-booga is the FALSE GOD. The REAL God is Ubumfejn-Booga-Hooga. But nobody has worshipped her since 12,527 B.C.E. after a high-priest got drunk on fermented fruit and accidentally swapped the name while reciting The Old Ways, and who's gonna correct the high-Priest?

... Do you smell toast?

The big one of endgame is Tony Stark commits the single worst crime in the history of the universe by "un-snapping" the half of the universe that was snapped by Thanos 5 years after they disappeared. No accounting for all the people who are dead in the meantime, no accounting for all the awkward conversations of "oh for me I just blinked and now you have two kids and a new wife" or "who are you people and why are you in my house where am I supposed to live now" all because he lacks the imagination to make the universe go back 5 years while keeping Pepper and his daughter the same.

Oh and

spoiler

he dies in the process too

. That's probably more important to most people.

I'd be happy to join a Canadian foreign legion. I view protecting Canada from foreign aggression my patriotic duty as a fellow human being, and neighbor.

Besides, once upon a time I swore an oath to protect my country from threats foreign and domestic, so I am honor bound to fight alongside Canada against the biggest threat the US has ever faced.

I'm not sure how many Americans would join me, or how receptive Canadians would even be to a bunch of tacticool looking non-professionals with guns showing up and CLAIMING to want to help, but I'm positive there will be americans fighting back. Whether it's on the front lines with guns, or with sabotage in the states, who can say.

That's how I felt about infinity war and endgame.

I decided not to watch after finding out it was a 2 parter, then after endgame came out I still hadn't watched it after a good year and a half.

Then someone spoiled the ending out of nowhere in a post and I decided I'd finally watch it.

I'm impressed you've gone this long.

Sounds like your friend is just lame.

In seriousness, 99.999999% of people will live a "normal" life, and very occasionally, someone might have a time or two that elevates it above "normal". The percentage of people who live "above" normal lives is so tiny, physicists would laugh at you for using so many decimal places.

Wanting more isn't a problem unless that desire is killing what you have to be happy about now.

In other words, "don't let perfect get in the way of good"

And I’ve heard all the platitudes.

I like to make people uncomfortable when they start going on about how my wife and I should have kids. She had a TL and I had a vasectomy. I usually start off with "kids are off the table for us."

We SHOULDN'T have kids because genetics on both our families are shit.

We WON'T have kids because they're awful to deal with 90% of the time, and neither of us feel that the world will be a livable place in their lifetime so it would be cruel to have children anyway.

We CAN'T have kids because the medical procedures.

If someone gets pushy about it, I act emotional, burst out that after so many miscarriages we have given up on children and the person should learn to take a hint.

So far nobody has had anything else to say after that.

Non-uniformed chucklefucks claiming to be law enforcement while acting like gang members and thugs, getting ready to break into a house?

Sounds like a good time for armed resistance to arrest the clearly illegal kidnapping or robbery. If they are armed and make any move toward weapons, there is only one response. Defend your life, and defend the victims, with all the force necessary to do so.

I actually think ICE WANTS this to happen so they can justify being even harsher or just straight up executing people in the street. It's not like law enforcement hasn't executed someone in front of dozens of witnesses while being recorded...

11 minutes vs 3 is a long time.
