  • I don’t use them. Or screen protectors . I take good care of my devices, and my phone gets its own pocket always, so no scratches. I’ve only broken 1 phone in my life and it was only the back glass on an iPhone 4, which slipped off my motorcycle seat because that fucking phone was frictionless.

  • If he's putting it up on the curb he's doing the best for his situation and to me that's fine. The damage comes from people leaving them just laying around and then the wind picks up. I have been around the block a few times it's true but in my life I've saved at least 3 people's cars from getting dented by carts I saw flying through the parking lot because of wind.

    Does he ask for help? Even if it's not a normal thing at that store, a nice conversation with a store manager can go a long way in my experience. Maybe it's because I live in a neighborhood with a significant amount of older folks (at least that's what it looks like at the grocery store!) but I bet any grocery will do that if you ask.

  • The carts go back in the corral so they don't damage other people's cars, not for convenience. I'm sorry your friend is hurt but my property shouldn't be damaged because of that. And nobody's going to judge him if he leaves it next the handicapped parking space he was in. Anyway, all the grocery stores by me will literally send someone to push the cart and put your groceries in the car for you if you're unable. The cashiers will even straight up ask if they think you need help.

  • I’m actually on an SNRI (like SSRI but also inhibits dopamine reuptake) as part of my adhd treatment so sadly that won’t do it for me. I think my brain just ignores hunger when I’m too busy to think about food, then eventually it just yells YO FEED ME.

  • I don't get hungry often, at least not the way I think normal people do. I usually go from 'fine' to 'more than mildly queasy' in a couple minutes, then I have to rush to find something to throw in my stomach. It's like flipping a light switch. This usually only happens when I have some project I'm focusing on.

  • It is. I dunno what this ice nonsense is.

    edit: The actual origin of the word is referring to very large bombs in WWII, which clearly took place long after we were using blocks of ice to cool public spaces. But the modern usage in terms of movies does in fact come from the days when mega-hit movies started having lines around the block.

  • The United States is comprised of 50 states so your hyperbole is going nowhere. Israel is a separate nation no matter how close friends the pair of assholes are. You have not countered my argument.

  • Please note the very real situation I mentioned above. That's reality whether China wants to try and scrub it from history or not. The fact that they won't even let their citizens discuss it is telling enough. They deserve the hate.
