Bad Economic Predictions
A lot of appliances used to have metal gears and such, and now they're almost all plastic. The old stuff is universally considered more reliable, even though people will just dismiss the observations as "that's just survivor bias." Because these people have a need to argue over anything an...

Meh. Even if it's just cooties. No grappling. It would be too funny watching them writhe on the ground, tbh.

I think they build to last the 3-year warranty. Anything else doesn't make sense for them. Planned obsolescence as a marketing strategy is a well documented thing.

Still, pass. Crazy people carry AIDS needles around just to poke peeps.
Taze, sure. Grapple, no.

Bad Economic Predictions
Tucker tried to break into the automotive insdustry when it was well-established, with a better product. The automakers were dishonest and killed him. Musk is doing something with Tesla, but his cars are arguably the worst-built on the road. That company is surviving with an EV model that may or may...

i'd step in for a woman, child, or clearly outmatched dude who didn't have it coming.
I wouldn't step in for a paid security guy. He should have been a hell of a lot better than that.

The car you drive
I share this in case any of you plan on keeping cars long-term. I wish I had done this 5 years ago, before it was rusty and it would have been a simple thing to just spray the underside of the car once a year. this is just a northern thing right? Like my Camry was 18 when I got rid of it, no issues...

The car you drive
I watched my neighbor return his boat/trailer in from Lake Erie one day, and as soon as he had it parked a mama and two baby racoons crawled out from somewhere under the trailer.

The car you drive
So since I discovered my beloved, paid-off truck was rusting away, I've been doing some research about this topic. Looks like it's common knowledge with car people that you need to start a rust treatment when the car is 5-10 years old. If you start then you stay ahead of the rust, and it's no big de...

John Goodman in The Big Lebowski wasn't a fan, but it truly is light to be a nihilist. I don't need to carry water for any of the causes out there. My identity isn't based on any other person's expectations of me, except for that of a father.

I feel like elimination of non-competes might apply a little pressure to companies to treat their people better so they're less tempted to hang out their own shingle and steal your customers.

TikTok is lying to you. It's not just propaganda, it's propaganda people are willingly signing up to consume and believe. These are modern day torch and pitchfork mobs trying to burn witches at the stake. One student, Alejandro Tanon told the AFP news agency that the US was at a "critical mome...

Let every woman who wants a bear, have a bear.
Even if it doesn't kill her, it won't be making her car payment.
