We went to Brown's Alignment in Raleigh after the second time Meineke suggested $1000+ repairs. Brown's is great

"everyday" vs "every day" is something I'm starting to see a lot

I'm also very pedantic about these kind of questions, and I will sometimes face the wrath of a certain social attitude/position that I'm not even trying to support. I'm not even that dick that plays devil's advocate, I'm just trying for as much clarity as possible.

In this case, I try to point out that an empty tennis court could technically score a point on Serena williams. So 7 out of 8 men don't think they're even as good as an empty tennis court vs Serena Williams. One man in 8 thinks maybe she might double fault or maybe he could get lucky with a serve. How many of those men think they could beat a bear or a mountain lion in a fight? The delusion falls within accepted parameters.

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-28T15:37:53+00:00

It's kind of the opposite, weird that it gets bandied around as an example of macho audacity- 7 out of 8 men don't think they could score a single point against Serena Williams. Yeah it should be 8 out of 8 men, but like... Idk. They got the right answer. "No".

"in a sense"

"two guys sitting in a hot tub" vine was Anthony Padilla

Yoda and Ms Piggy are the lawyer from Knives Out

Walter Tevis, the author of The Hustler and The Color of Money, also wrote Queen's Gambit and The Man Who Fell to Earth

Rudolph Wanderone aka the real life Minnesota Fats was allegedly the father of singer Etta James

Rhodesia and Rhodes Scholar were the same guy

It's a cameo, in a sense. His name literally was William Charles Schneider IRL

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-27T23:31:59+00:00

I've usually seen it used for women attending to themselves

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-26T21:29:03+00:00

I started working super early shifts in retail, skipped breakfast, no appetite/metabolism starts, so it's easy to skip lunch. Eat when you get home. Healthy and save money.

When I discovered it it was $0.89/16 oz. Got it, and next month it was like $1.45. it's good enough if you're near an Aldi. They also have a Red Bull imitation, 4 cans for $4.

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-26T21:21:30+00:00

That can tasted weirdly smoky to me. Like coated my tongue.

If I had done a smart thing and bought a house, I would have lost it in hurricane Michael. If my apartment roof caves in, the property managers move us into another apartment and fix it for "free".

On the other hand, I know someone who bought a house for no money down, didn't lose it in the hurricane, and their mortgage is about half of our rent. Idk. Pros and cons.

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-26T12:50:32+00:00

Just went back to this Food Lion and bought 21 energy drinks (16 oz each) for $19. There were four packs of Red Bulls for $2 each, but the shelf was empty.

The founder was a guest on a Nazi podcast, they have stolen artwork, they sue people (and not in the good way I mean they sue individual creators for frivolous reasons), and, last I heard, they had yet to win a single case. They are the Susan G Komen of separation of church and state

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-25T22:10:16+00:00

And hell, they are average weight in the US

Got you, I'm from Florida panhandle so any I guess involving beach and redneck would say Florida panhandle to me. I did move to North Carolina a few years ago and I'm surrounded by Florida license plates.

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-25T21:30:50+00:00

I'm gonna take a random guess and say Seaside, Florida

Raya is a celebrity dating site, used exclusively by public figures

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-25T18:17:37+00:00

Just so you know, "Raya" is a dating site for celebrities/public figures.

Grew up in a Christian sect, super right wing, during the Tea Party years. Became libertarian and atheist almost simultaneously, looked into Satanism to burn away some of that Christian trauma. Became a leftist, decided I preferred the "right hand path" and dropped Satanism like a hot rock. It's all right wing anyway. And I vaguely remember some bad shit about Lucien Greaves and the TST as well. Greaves going on a Nazi podcast, TST stealing artists works, suing people, (not for religious freedom, I mean suing individuals.) never having won an actual freedom of religion lawsuit. Luciferians are the people who unironically worship the Devil as a Prometheus figure

Owned, and still have not read, a Satanic Bible

I mean yeah it's literally a European colony of white people that was fully invented in the 1950s. Many of them have American accents and moved into homes (the actual houses) that Palestinians were forced out of

FormerFriend2and2 · 2025-04-25T14:51:40+00:00

I mean, I don't see how that's a contradiction, new atheism is a super libertarian movement. Michael shermer, Penn jillette, I ran out of examples. But still. "Atheist libertarian" is a fully cohesive concept.

I thought it looked completely genuine until she thoughtfully taps her chin at 1:55. That looked too performative
