"Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt."

Imagine criticizing the person forced into bed with the elephant for speaking up when the elephant behaves poorly.

Dangerously close to describing a folk music festival

It's actually for another reason

Steam does suck though? It's hard to use, and most things are better boiled/blanched or fried.

Sounds like you're describing something like the Monowalker

There are some people who have done DIY hiking trailers by chopping up youth bikes too so maybe look into that as well.

Given that a four wheel design spreads the weight to four wheels instead of just two, four wheels can obviously move more weight more easily than two.

Gonna have to disagree just on this point. Unless you're worried about sinking into soft ground or something, two wheels can take the weight just as well as four. Fewer wheels is often more maneuverable and there's less friction. I mean, you specifically mention wheelbarrows which show this trade off; stability for easier rolling/maneuverability.

Plus, there's a disincentive to take proactive action in religious institutions because that's basically acknowledging that God isn't actually as involved as they think.

Great use for them. If the reason it's cheaper is that they aren't paying the externalities, then adding a tariff is a great way to compensate for that.

Property taxes is the answer

Earlier:

So people are fleeing the US? That's not the brag you think it is...

That's my concern as well. Seeing what happened with the cheap hoverboards and ebikes makes me wary of being too lenient on these.

No issues for me either. Galaxy S20

Maybe a stretch as it's not parodying a song but parodies Star Wars kinda sorta? Seagulls! (Stop it Now)

Lonely Island has a few (Jack Sparrow) comes to mind but again not a direct parody of a specific song.

Richard Cheese does straight up covers but they are so stylistically different that it's basically a parody. Chop Suey

Then there's the classic comedy music duos: Garfunkel & Oates (Loophole), Flight of the Conchords (Business Time)

Bo Burnham's whole Inside special is fantastic too.

Looks like I'm mostly listing comedy music and not necessarily parodies, but oh well.

With everything going on, I'm surprised overdoses are going down. Hell, I'm considering taking up drugs to help deal with it all

Was it a both sides thing? I read it more as since the Democrats are throwing very little opposition (holding up tiny little signs like Wile E Coyote before gravity kicks in? That's it??) it's game over.

I believe they call it "flooding the zone (with shit)" when it's this particular orange flavour

This seems like a bad idea... Anyone currently supporting Musk/Trump just believes the lies and has no issue with their behavior. It's essentially impossible for the interview to go so poorly that they'll actually see it that way. It's just giving Musk more attention and yet another platform.
