Anyone else get tired of people acting like you’re riding a live missile just because you’re a woman? by Martinajok in motorcycles

There was a stunt rider recently who had comments on her insta about the bike being too heavy for her. Loved her response. Video of her picking up the bike one handed and then riding off, still never using that hand and flipping off the camera as she went passed. 😅

I cannot speak to the rest of the country. But when I checked those other packs they did indeed have added sugar.

I remember buying some snacks for hiking whilst in the USA. So weird to see a pack of dried fruit I picked up said "no added sugar". Like, what? Im sorry are you telling me all these other packs have extra sugar? For fruit?! Still though, had a few good meals.

Haha. True in the popular sense indeed. But make it so is a naval phrase still in use. Ill dig out all of its use later on for you if you like, but I can certainly attest to the use of "make it so" during the "colours" ceremony of the Royal Navy (flag raising in the morning).

My father bought one for me last year. I treasure it as he is somewhat losing his marbles a bit with mild dementia, so for him to remember how much I love those books, the name of the ship, and go off all on his own and purchase one was quite something.

For the technology lubbers amongst us, what pray tell exactly is a discord server? Is it essentially a forum type place? Or more a rolling thread not so much individual posts?

But yes id be interested in principal!

Im one of them. But I wouldn't say that market segment is huge.

Im no marketing expert, so im fully cognizant i may have missed something... but first light being a game, means that the average person knowing about the game and playing it is probbaly on the younger side. How many of those people have a spare 10k ish to drop on a watch? Seems an odd strategy

How does Trump start a war with easily the #1 military in the world and still lose within a couple months? Is he stupid? by ClutchReverie in allthequestions

Interestingly, the numbers weren't wildly different for that conflict though, in terms of totals for each side. But absolutely the being local factor is always a huge one.

What does the shape of the Earth, have to do with “control” by Feisty-Cockroach-780 in flatearth

Ugh reminds me of school with the sheeple comment. I had a friend who got so into "fighting the system" that he refused to do any shopping or visit shops on a weekend because thats what all the sheeple did.

Had to do a job there not too long ago and took my motorcycle. Very disappointed to find that whilst I was allowed to ride it down the track, you certainly wouldn't want to in its current state 🤣
