I get where you’re coming from, I’m logo free to the maximum extent practical, but a fridge is inside your house. If i wanted an “M” projection on my fridge light (I definitely don’t, but if I did), I wouldn’t consider that providing free advertising.
If I played a set against Serena there is a decent chance I get one point.
She will hit 12 aces/unreturnable serves and 12 return winners. That’s going to happen. But during that she could double fault or miss one return. She’s not going to be trying that hard, playing me definitely isn’t going to put her “in the zone.” And my serves will be so weak and pathetic compared to what she’s used to that she’ll have to generate more pace for those winners than she normally would. I like my chances of one going long or wide.
Now, if the question is “could you hit a winner against Serena,” lol fuck no.
My grandparents house built just after ww2 had, what was for a long time, a standard two car garage. Enough room for two land yachts from the 70s, lawn care implements and various other stuff and you could still open the car doors all the way and walk around. My parents’ house built in the 70s was the same. It’s more recent construction in built up areas where they are shrinking. They’ve been getting smaller as developers try to cram more liveable sqft on smaller amounts of land.
You’re right, being poor is expensive, but that doesn’t really apply to charging a vehicle.
The term “being poor is expensive” is generally applied to situations where you don’t have the money to pay for something upfront (a quality product, bulk purchases, preventative maintenance, preventative healthcare, down payment on a house) so you have to spend smaller amounts of money repeatedly and/or have a large unavoidable cost as a result (multiple cheap products that wear out, multiple small purchases with a higher per unit price, a blown engine, a root canal, rent), which can cost a lot more over time.
The electric bill is post-paid, not up front. Not being able to set aside the “$10 every few days” to pay the higher bill at the end of the month with money left over is just poor money management.
That being said, the higher purchase cost of electric vehicles preventing poor people from taking advantage of lower operating costs that would more than offset the higher purchase price after some number of years is an example of it being expensive to be poor.
You made me curious. In case anyone else is also curious; the Blizzard has been around since 1962 and has existed in it’s current form, with all the stuff mixed in, since 1985, and the McFlurry was created by a Canadian franchisee in 1995 and started rolling out around the US in 1997.
Yeah, I went back and changed it to a strikethrough to avoid more confusion.
People always get pissy about these generation things. It’s not about some people being better than others. There was a period of time where being able to use a computer meant being able to take a tabula rasa machine, install an os using a bunch of disks and a large manual, and figure out how to fix anything without the internet. There was also a period of time where home computers were becoming common. Those two periods overlapped and created a group of non-professional people mostly (MOSTLY) born between 75ish and 85ish that are much better able to use and troubleshoot tech than people born before or after.
But you always end up attracting a bunch of douches saying “I was born in (whenever) and I have a degree in (whatever) and I know more than people blah blah blah.” Yeah, I’m not talking about professionals or hardcore hobbyists, I’m taking about regular jerkoffs that had to figure this shit out without specialized education or the internet. It was a unique period that created a group a people different than what came before or after. No judgement, it just is. For some reason certain people take offense to that.
Thank you, autocorrect strikes again.
You’re all educated professionals. This meme is more about your average user.
Yeah, this is more young X and old millennial. Xers born in the late 60s-early 70s and millennials born in the late 80s-90s don’t know shit.
I’ve heard us (young Xs and old millennials) described as the organ Oregon Trail generation. We grew up along side the tech so we understand it better than your average person from before or after.
It’s been a while, so correct me if I’m wrong; but isn’t the gift moving on to something else after a mortal life? If I recall correctly, elves are stuck in the physical world forever. Even when they die don’t they just go to some limnal place for a while then come back?
It’s almost two entire sections, with just a little of North America, Asia, and Antarctica. And then some on four others. It’s obvious from a glance, no other body of water or land mass comes anywhere near that.
And if you still don’t think that’s vast enough, maybe a lifetime of bad projections have given you a distorted view of the Pacific’s size. Mercator and Mercator like projections definitely make the Pacific look much too large near the poles.
Have you seen The Basketball Diaries?
I don’t know what’s worse, those dipshits that never take the time, or the ones that come in sick because sick days are for impromptu golf days.
First one at home for me too.
I’ve never understood this. Even from the viewpoint of an extremely selfish person; do you want someone with COVID, the flu, or a cold making your food, or even just interacting with you in a retail environment? And as for employers; how shortsighted are you that you don’t realize that while one sick person coming in may be better for productivity than them staying home, that quickly becomes five sick people working much less efficiently instead of four healthy ones and one person out sick?
The way I’m reading it, A would be the whole quadrant and B would just be that specific stripe. I don’t know if A includes B, or excludes it though. I also can’t tell if the stripes are just that specific box, or the entirety of the countries that fall partway in the box; is B just that rectangle or all of the U.S., Canada, and Mexico?
“A” would be your pick, but the odds aren’t great.

I don’t know how the Mercedes ones work or what type of fridge he has, but BMWs just have a door light and a filter goes over it for “M”, “BMW”, the roundel, etc., and my fridge just has a light.
I assumed he found you could put the filter from the car on the fridge light with a minimum of fucking around.
But you’re right, the more time and effort spent on this, the stupider it becomes.
