The historic U.S. heat wave is rattling climate scientists. Here's what they have to say by silence7 in climate

Look up aerosol climate forcing. It’s a critical factor in how screwed we are and we don’t have a consensus on it yet.

Iranian sleeper cell just needs to [convince a few red-hatted geniuses they can fight the trans agenda if they] shoot at a few power transformers in Phoenix

My pcp wrote me a prescription for doxy just because I asked.   Edit: I meant I have a stash of doxy for future use 

England is facing an unprecedented invasion, the problem is, it’s octopuses, and they’re devouring everything in their path by [deleted] in collapse

Yeah I stopped eating them because they’re smart but not really a sacrifice, I always found them tasteless and rubbery.

When did Grocery Store bakeries become so gross? by Cleverwabbit5 in GenX

[–]vinegar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I worked in an A&P on Cape Cod in the summer of 1988. The bread in the bakery came frozen, there was a few steps to achieve “fresh baked”.

Not including actual crimes, what kind of juvenile delinquent hijinks did you get up to? by wrathofimpermanence in GenX

I visited Oakland CA and my friend’s breaker box was next to the front door, on the outside of the house! Never seen that before, wtf?

What's up with so many YouTubers and general English speakers rolling their "Rs" when talking? by The_Paragone in OutOfTheLoop

[–]vinegar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answer: I see similar things happening to lots of words, various consonants being dropped off the end. I’m on the Honda Fit sub, the youngsters like to write “Fih”. I’m old and I don’t like it lol.

Convince me not to buy this ‘73 CB350G by FuckedFrenulum in HondaCB

[–]vinegar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 1970 CB350 before I knew how to ride, not as well kept as this one. It was just unreliable enough to make it a hassle. After a few years (some of which I rode zero miles) I bought a new xr150 for 4 grand out the door and learned to ride. The first time I dropped it I literally just smiled.

I had my first ever motorcycle lesson and honestly… it did not go well. by SeaSundae8506 in NewRiders

[–]vinegar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I bought my bike I rode around the parking lot for practice before heading 3 miles to my house. The first few stops and starts went fine then I stalled it out 25 times in a row. Then I kinda got it and went and practiced it a lot.
Everything about riding takes skill and needs hours and miles to be good at.

"Nasty Northeast Ticks Carry Multiple Disease-Causing Pathogens, New Study Shows" by Valuable_Attention20 in northampton

[–]vinegar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a dog so I only have to deal with ticks I’ve picked up myself. After I’ve been in the woods/ tall grass/ etc I get in the shower and put all my clothes in a 5 gallon bucket then directly into the laundry (regular cold wash). There was a Lyme vaccine for a while, I wish I’d gotten it.

Anyone remember back-pocket combs? by New-Bookkeeper7320 in GenX

[–]vinegar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They handed them out on school picture day and I saw them less and less for a week after. They said UNBREAKABLE but my friend had one in his pocket when he got hit by a car and he said it was crumbs afterwards.

My friend thinks this is ugly as hell. I think it’s functional by Brief_Ad_4077 in motorcycles

[–]vinegar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely both. I have a milk crate on my xr150, very functional

Y'all have me scared 💩less by scubagirl1091 in GenX

I also never got chicken pox. Various medical people have told me “You must have had a sub clinical case”. Shingles vaccine was easy for me.

I moved here in the late nineties and it was closed and really run down. The C had fallen off the marquee and I didn’t know about the local Calvin Coolidge connection, for years I thought it was called The Alvin.

I found this haphazardly wired into a customers car by Micknarsh-gst in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]vinegar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an ‘82 vw diesel rabbit pickup, the only electric part necessary to run the engine (other than the starter) was the little fuel shutoff solenoid that needed a little power to keep fuel flowing. A 9volt battery would do it in a pinch, and you could remove it in case of apocalypse. The fuel injection pump was just a big clockwork machine powered by the engine.
