When I was a teen we had adopted a neighborhood stray Maine Coon named Barney. He was a big cat. Well one day I heard screaming from the back yard and ran to the window only to see my mom running from Barney. My mom NEVER ran and was very mellow 99% of the time. I had to laugh seeing this cat that barely came up to her calf chasing her around the yard while she "ran for her life". In his defense Barney liked to chase us kids around and we sort of trained him to do it by chasing him too. It became his play.

I asked her later why she was so scared and she just said "Well the cat was chasing me!" and I responded "What was he going to do? Nibble your ankles?"

I was practicing my front kicks on a heavy bag in my kung fu school when I decided to try to work on their height. I kicked as high as I could which made me lean back (bad form). Well heavy bags fight back and between that and my unstable position I fell backwards like a log. Yes, I was defeated by a bag.

Conflict of interest if you mod the comments for your posting.

It is reality

Discredited by extremists ;)

Moderators shouldn't be allowed to post to their own groups. How do you question a post by a mod without getting deleted/banned?

One thing I've found in life is that extremists of any ilk have more in common than differences, they just wave different colored flags.

Turn off the voting system first if you want any sort of questioning or challenges

Reddit is mostly left

It is very rigid in its ideologies, even more so than reddit.

The meal subscription services strike me as premade salads on steroids. You're paying a premium for all the labor, ingredients, (excessive) packaging, shipping, their profit, etc and you still have to put it together and cook it. It really isn't that hard to look up a couple of recipes, buy the ingredients (you'd probably be going to the store anyway) and prep for 30 or so minutes a night. If you make full recipes you'll probably have leftovers so you won't even have to cook the next day.

Yup. I work with both and I greatly prefer working with linux now but I get paid to stare at it, dig into config files, understand file systems, etc. The average consumer does not want to do this and doesn't give a shit about internals, they just want to click install and work which windows is pretty good at. If you told them they needed to edit a config file and play with services your customer support lines would be jammed.

Judging from some of my tshirts about 20 yrs and counting

Maple Walnut ice cream seems to be impossible to find in stores outside of New England
