Reduce chances of bad electrical things happening. 1 electrical fires, 2 damage due to surges, I unplug some stuff during thunderstorms too.

I’ve never had a cup of coffee. I’ve eaten coffee flavored things, and eaten coffee beans, but never had or tasted brewed coffee.

People… That could be a problem, there are a lot of them.

I just don’t make an effort to move farther over.

Pavement is one of the more interesting words for British vs American English. British pavement == American sidewalk. In American English, I don’t see pavement in common use, but its more of the general material that a road is made out of, or maybe hard surface, when not specifying a specific. “They just put some new pavement down”. Anyway, I just think its one of the more interesting (and potentially confusing) British to American translations.

My slow pace is still faster than slow walkers.

Where I am, the scooters are not supposed to be on normal sidewalks, and seem annoyed your using the sidewalk.

IF YOU USED YOUR SIGNAL WE WOULD HAVE BOTH GONE FASTER!

The left lane is for passing, I really don’t care how fast or slow you are going, if your not passing somebody GET OVER!

anyway, you might have struck a few nerves.

For a bit the stuff inside will keep the COG low enough that its somewhat stable, but at some point it just stops being worth it. It also seems to last forever.

It annoys me more when other people care.

Quay confuses me.

No judgment, are there other childish pronunciations that bother you too, or is just spaghetti? There is a company called pinnacle that uses a little girl intentionally mispronouncing the company name in their ads.

Both are the standard American English pronunciations. For solder, the o is more of an ah sound so sahder.

Its Daylight Saving (no s) Time. And I am firmly on the side of standard time year round; I’m a morning person.

The important thing is the time gets communicated, and in the US outside states that don’t observe daylight saving time, I just assume the vernacular time for that zone.

What if they’re being overall intentionally childish?

ackschually a DB-9 connector has no meaning as low and high density pin counts are specified for the d-sub series, and db-9 is an impossible combination.

Everybody always says modern pop music is terrible, your suffering from recency bias. Take a look at top 40s from 20 years ago. You’ll probably see a bunch of songs you forgot about because they didn’t stand the test of time. Old music isn’t better, you just only still hear the good stuff.

Love good video game music. Martin O’Donnell and Michael Salvatori have been one of my most listened to seeds on pandora. Yes I still use pandora. Favorite soundtrack is probably the soundtrack to vvvvvv.

For me there are blocks of cold. Start to need the winter coat < 30F. Need to start adding more layers <15F. Its starting to get noticeably colder every few degrees <10F. Can’t comment to much on colder than 0F as I’ve only experienced it a few times.

I’m specifically referring to where I’m at now. There are some nice spots in the Appalachians.

I like winter, and my part of the world doesn’t get it. A high of 35 is about as cold as it regularly gets.

Although in an interesting turn of events, not a lot of heat advisories or warnings for me. Heat indices staying below 105

Not a fan of the beach or swimming, but I like being outside, but its too hot and too humid. I sleep better in the winter too. Spring and Fall are great with 75 F highs.
