Mainly to get to work (10 minutes), but also all other short ways and occasionally getting out in nature.

As soon as money allows it, I'll get a better one though. It's used and I mainly bought it because the seller was close to where I live, but I need a larger frame and I want more modern mechanics, e.g. disc brakes, overall.

Well that is one of the things I have no idea about. But maybe it depends on the type of mechanism you use? I can't imagine it would be too hard with my bike.

It's not that expensive, people buy TVs for 5000+, it's just very inconvenient for pretty much everything except games that are made for it.

If you die from second heroin, you die in real life.

The basis in reality is called hype. There are a lot of goods with low or no intrinsic value that are expensive anyways because of hype.

You can have my legs for $10 trillion.

The article doesn't mix them up, OPs title does.

Repairing your bike is easy and checking the important parts every couple of months makes riding it a lot better.

More RAM would be kinda nice though.

The "honest" is silent.

Good beer is good beer.

Maybe you crippled them. Think about that.

It's not whataboutism when it's on topic. You should look up that word. Also, anecdotes don't matter when you try to compare things. Statistics do though.

1. Right wing sources, yay.
2. If you honestly compare Germany and the US, you will notice that the prevalence of rape is much higher in the US (US: ~43/100k vs. Ger: ~15/100k, source: statista.com). Comparing gang rape specifically is more difficult though, because the US doesn't seem to keep track of that (or at least i couldn't find absolute numbers). According to Wikipedia 22.8% of rapes with female victims where gang rapes. That makes ~9/100k in the US vs ~1/100k in Germany.

Then again I don't think statistics regarding a lot of crimes are easily comparable. There might be differences regarding underreporting and legal definitions that skew numbers in different ways.

We might overuse that comeback, but at least we don't have school shootings.

Good.

Die.

Even if there are more klicks, there is no way any of these lead to a decision to buy their crap.

Cheese is screaming all the time, but you can't see that.

You rip off small pieces, roll it in paper and light it.
