Trying to explain to people that the much larger flying cockroaches you find in Florida are fine and the much smaller invasive German cockroaches are far more of a problem is near impossible when they first come across them.

I feel like we call them Palmetto bugs instead of roaches just to make them feel better about them. Yet they don't spread disease the same way, or seem to cause home infestations, which is why they really arent as bad. But when my partner moved from Tennessee to Florida and saw one out on the balcony by the beach, she almost chose to fly over the railing to get away from it either way.

For me it was always, what do you want for Christmas? How about a computer chair (because she didn't like the chair I used, it was one you knelt on kind of like this.

I would say absolutely not, I love my chair. And she would get me a computer chair for Christmas.

Same thing happened with my graduation. She got my brother a watch a couple years before when he graduated, told her absolutely don't get me a watch I never wear them as they always bothered my wrist. (I sweat and run hot, and we lived in Florida, which means it's always 100% humidity). I of course got a watch for Graduation. I took it to get sized 7 years later, wore it home from the place that sized it put it in a drawer and the battery died god knows when after that, but long before I ever went to wear it, I just saw it was dead when I had to move it to another house. So now I carry a dead watch from place to place and I doubt it's worth anything as it was engraved on the inside, so I doubt you could even pawn in.

I mean, at least it wasn't a Zero Bar. I got those a couple times as a kid and they were okay if you were in the mood for it, but damn if someone said they got me a candy bar and handed me that I'd be a bit disappointed. But hell, Id still be happy someone gave me a candy bar though.

If people cared about rights they would have brought Hunters case before the Supreme Court and said it was legal/illegal to make stipulations around purchasing/owning a firearm. It would have put Republicans in an anti gun stance. His charges for buying a firearm, not causing harm and supposedly being addicted to drugs while seeking help was a great example that Republicans don't care about gun rights. They care about being better than someone else.

Johnson said it:

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

Sure, so tomorrow when someone says sleep tight should I take it as have a good night and sleep well or that they want to bury me in the ground with no room for air? Lol. Stretching the possible meaning of a term and claiming language evolves shouldnt be enough to make claims that he's calling for someone to be murdered. Honestly he should sue for slander/libel and endangerment to his self/family for someone making such claims.

More recently to mean to kill?

It's used daily at every restaurant/grocery store to mean they are out of an item. 86 cheddar just means your out of cheddar, stop selling it.

Are all the working class calling assignations on cheddar cheese they sold out of now?

Guessing it was a force copy title for the sub and the article wanted you to click. They put it in the body of the post at least.

I've made my decision and I'll lay in it.

Trump: If we can help let us know

Vance: We are staying out of it

Rubio: makes phone calls and it's unclear anything happened from them.

India: The U.S. had no involvement

Pakistan: Rubio helped us and says to thank Trump.

Sounds a lot like Pakistan is just trying to make sure they keep the U.S. on their good side because they are unsure the ceasefire will hold. It makes sense that the U.S. would want to keep a footing with them as it keeps them with strategic points on both sides of Iran.

Very true lol

Thanks for the response!

Plane vs helicopter I imagine. Plane should have a longer range, helicopter is better to get footage.

If you're putting explosives on these things I don't think it matters. You wouldn't hear the whirl of the rotors until after it got within striking range.

Bird circles 80 times with 15 second gaps of the camera pointed in the wrong direction is all I can imagine. You'd have to swoop the bird directly at the target you wanted to capture the image of unless you are controlling the bird and using a floating camera that you are pointing at the target and rotating separately. Which means the odds of you crashing are going up drastically.

It also seems to have fewer purposes. If you are trying to get footage or even just a picture it seems like a normal drone is much easier. Takeoff, landing, hovering seem to be weighted to the quad copter design.

Yeah I use a paid addon in Streamio for most everything. What's BDS?

I'm sure the character build is to slow for many people but I've really liked this season. I've always liked over detailed drawn out shows though. The one thing that makes me not like to watch it is Disney plus though. I watch most things through a service with no ads but my partner has access to it there and insists we watch it there to have the best quality or whatever. Every 5 minutes it feels like it pulls a rip cord and jerks you out of the immersiveness to take a shit on your enjoyment and play the SAME FUCKING ADS OVER AND OVER AGAIN. The ads don't relate to anything, it's almost why I give targeted ads elsewhere a pass. Emotional moment drawn out in painstaking detail...TRY OUR NEW SUPERMAX PEARL GHOST PADS!!. 1. I've never used a pad in my life. 2. I don't have a vagina. 3. I don't menstrate. This ad has done nothing but make me no longer want to participate in watching this content on your streaming service and is actively working to get me off of it.

Yeah the show is fun though.

I planted a 8ftx4ft strawberry patch a couple years ago and I can safely say I give 90% of them to the chickens. I eat maybe 5 or 6 a day when I grab them, but there are so damn many that I just grab about 5 handfuls of not perfect looking ones and throw them to the hens and they love them. I don't get it. They never raid the patch, but the strawberries won't last a minute on the ground when I give the to them. I always just figured they'd eat the patch

What I don't understand is they say he was told to leave the property multiple times by homeland security, yet he wasn't on the property, and was arrested off of it. Seems fairly easy to verify.
