WTF are you talking about? I see zero evidence that this is what OP is doing. It can’t be the case that every time someone asks a question that you don’t like, they must be doing so in bad faith. That’s a fallacy.

Oh, look at John fucking Von Neumann over here!
Either a square knot or a “granny” knot will work. A lot of people don’t know the difference, but it’s actually a pretty important distinction in different types of rigging because a square knot is so much stronger and more secure.
It’s how the other great apes do it too, which as far as I’m concerned is pretty much the end of the issue. It really is one of those things where there’s a right and wrong way to do it.
Double Nickels on the Dime, Minutemen. Also probably the best power trio record ever made. Granted, they only made one more record before D Boon died, but as legendary as he is, Mike Watt has still never done anything as good since.
Well the other team is SF, which if I had to guess is probably the right’s most hated city in America. It must be galling to them that the 49ers are easily one of the winningest teams in NFL history.
That must be nice. My company does a lot of work for one of the world’s largest chip manufacturers and getting access to some of their facilities is like pulling teeth. Somebody forgot to submit the right paperwork, it didn’t go to the correct department or project manager, this facility is always locked down on the third Tuesday of every month, for reasons, you name it I’ve encountered it.
This is basic cat stuff. “Oh, smell good! Must investigate! Do want or no? Not sure, is hot, but definite smell good! Maybe want?”
Hardcore agreement with regard to hiking groups. I’m in my 50s and happily married, but my wife has MS and isn’t really able to join me on my hiking excursions. I have a brother and a nephew and a son who will sometimes join me on my various expeditions, but they aren’t consistent partners, which is fine, so I’ve since turned to a local hiking group that has things happening on any given weekend.
I’m not single or even remotely looking for a relationship, but I’ve definitely seen some younger people find romantic partners in our little hiking group.
There’s a good chance that it’s weather-related, so I wouldn’t take it personally.
I don’t know how it is where you are, but here in the PNW everything is basically an ice-skating rink, and no one is driving anywhere.
Yeah, I have one of these for backpacking. Works great.
They’ve become increasingly common in recent years. I don’t think there’s as much of an aversion as you appear to imagine.
Fuck! No, I fucked that one up too and accidentally picked a crazy Haight-Ashbury 1967 hippie together with a seriously damaged Vietnam vet, the two of them getting involved in weird cultish shit long before I was born.
It was a poor decision on my part. No one to blame but myself.
I even specifically said as much in my comment.
Yeah, me too. I pat myself on the back for this one nearly every day. Probably the best financial decision I ever made.
Accidentally buying a modest house in what at the time was a “distressed” neighborhood because it was all we could afford. 15 years later the neighborhood has been gentrified and is highly desirable. The property has tripled in value and the land is now worth more than the house itself.
Anyhow, it was dumb luck on my part and again, mostly had to do with the place being affordable and relatively close to my wife’s parents.
Bed.
I don’t know about that. I’ve run across some real turds from Yamaha over the years. That said, it’s been about 20 years since I last played one and maybe they’ve upped their game. For my money Guild makes the best lower-priced guitars, though granted they’re mostly more expensive than Yamahas.
There’s also way less viewpoint diversity here. There’s a pretty narrow window of opinions on any given subject that’s tolerated.
The last week or so it’s been Too Much Too Young by The Specials. It was on the radio, once, last week and for no good reason I’ve been stuck with it since. Thanks brain.
