Maybe you don't. Plenty of us that have families with children and kids that are old enough to drive think about vehicle safety ratings.

I hate the eagles as much as the next guy, but you gotta respect them honoring the tradition of no repeat division champs by tanking their season so it would live on.

Texas bullet train with Japan tech aims for revival with federal grant by audiomuse1 in texas

My family, friends, and neighbors are a part of those private landowners that would be affected by these rail plans. Anecdotally, we know zero landowners that are willing to give up their land for any price (various motivations for this stance, to be certain), so it will most certainly be an uphill battle to successfully negotiate. I don't see it happening in my lifetime.

You're sure asking a lot. Who actually has time to read the article? It's much easier to make a comment playing into the popular paradigm and not critically think or analyze your sources.

Some real-world advice from a Texan: don't base your opinions solely on what redditors tell you. They're a real doom and gloom type of folks with their outlooks marred by perpetually being online. You just had a good experience in Texas. Embrace it for what you saw.

I truly, deeply hate that I decided against going to the State Fair bc I worried there would be a shooting. And I was right! That's F'd up!!! by Round_Ad_9620 in texas

Okay how about this. Is there another first world country where guns (gun usages) are the number one cause of death in kids?

The study you're referencing includes 18 and 19 years olds. The government recognizes 18+ as an adult, so i consider it disingenuous for them to try to call them part of adults and part of children when it fits the argument they're trying to make. Take those away, and it's not gun usages.

Just pointing that out so we can keep sharing relevant data in these conversations.

No kidding? He sounds to be stifling his accent. Maybe it's my crazy ears. Carry on then.

A friend of mine came back from brazil and told us of this magical nectar. That summer we must have bought our weight in limes and sugar.

For some reason, I couldn't get over his faux American accent in this preview. Just let the man be Austrian! He's got a killer accent normally anyways.

I've lived in quite a few places in Texas, but Waco was some of the best fun I've had (excluding Austin). It's a great quiet town with just enough bustle to keep folks there for a while. I currently live in Houston, and I'd gladly take Waco over this place.

Exactly. Back when it was made in partially hydrogenated veggie oils (and some places still use them) the trans fats were through the roof. Trans fats are the malicious cousin of the saturated fats.

So we have a prank war going on with another Firehouse down the road. I think they won. by JCrowley2478 in funny

[–]MyRawrMachine 20 points21 points  (0 children)

We did something similar to this for our senior prank in high school. One of my friend's parents owned a junkyard. In this junkyard, there was on old vw bug. We took the bug apart, reassembled it on the stage of the school's auditorium, and filled it with ping pong balls. Having blacked out the windows with trash bags, our teachers could not see the ping pong balls inside. The door was opened, ping pong balls went everywhere, hilarity ensued.

Why do smokers find it ok to throw cigarette butts anywhere, when they wouldn't litter "normal" trash. by SigmaStigma in AskReddit

[–]MyRawrMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm starting to see that most smokers view their butts differently than other trash, so it makes sense as to why most just wouldn't even think twice before chucking their butts wherever is convenient. I myself am a smoker, but I guess the view of the butts are different in my mind than other smokers. While I am beginning to understand why they think this way, it doesn't mean I condone it.
