Or even install door closers and/or bumpers on the neighbor's door sills. OP could offer to chip in for dampening measures, that would go a long way towards making the super want to help.

Shameless pandering. Upvoted.

Dwarves use lava soap.

CHRIST YES. It means I need to turn sideways and sidle across the metaphysical line between two people having a conversation who obviously have so much outward disdain for my existence that they can't be bothered to move three fucking steps to the side where nobody has to maneuver around them. I fucking hate that shit with a burning passion.

Thanks for sharing that. I'll agree it's pretty dubious, but not enough to stop me enjoying their other content. But I have a pretty high skeptic quotient for everything online to begin with so, a little light shilling isn't enough to turn me off of a channel that's otherwise entertaining and often thought-provoking.

That "experiment" definitely deserves the mythbusters treatment, though. Even if that brand breaks into pieces faster, that doesn't account for total breakdown or even what happens to its individual fibers after flushing. More data needed.

Lol. It took me longer than I care to admit to realize what that was. That is some well-crafted satire.

I mean yeah, it's a huge goddamn problem and our national shame, but that doesn't mean it's appropriate to derail every thread with it.

Well, we actually did give them the choice. They all chose iPhone, though I admit we encouraged that because it was simpler to lock those down and keep track of their location with them when they were younger.

My oldest had his for a few years and switched to an Android when he became more tech savvy and realized that an Apple didn't afford him the customization he wanted and didn't mesh as well with the PC he built with his summer job money.

I kind of like that we have an assortment of ecosystems in the house, because it exposes them to the advantages and drawbacks of each. Lord knows they hear me cussing out Windows often enough when I use the laptop, so maybe they'll be motivated to learn to use another OS when they're older.

"Bugger" is funnier when you mentally replace it with "arsefuck" whenever you see it used.
