I suspect we’re gonna find out one way or the other.

I had this exact idea… when I was 7. That was before I was introduced to newtonian physics.

That’s a hell of a magic trick. Pierre’s lips move and Trump’s voice come out.

I’m amazed they haven’t kicked her ass out of office yet

Albertans next opportunity is in 2028.

I can attest to this story. And of course they never bring their own, so they’re consuming all of your stuff, throwing your carefully planned intoxicant inventory completely out of whack. But also don’t get them in groups of more than 3, or they’ll wake you up before breakfast making a racket playing basketball.

Historically they didn’t. But many (certainly not all) modern trolley busses have batteries (or more common, super capacitors) that allow for short distances to be travelled without contact with the lines. It’s certainly not an ‘all’ thing though.

I don’t think now is the time to be arguing for the effectiveness of guardrails.

I know people that cycle all year round and where I live it is decidedly colder and snowier than that all winter.

I prefer to arrive at work/school/shops not sopping wet, and it sometimes rains

If only science could devise some sort of way to keep you dry in the rain. One day, perhaps

AND the separate bike lanes do not disrupt traffic so the drivers don’t hate them either.

Oh, they usually still hate them. In there minds, that’s a lane of traffic that got taken away. For those people, I usually like to point out an unused sidewalk and complain that those damned pedestrians are also taking away perfectly good driving space.

That’s true of any OS.

Why the hell would you want to?

This is gender affirming surgery. But I suppose that’s your point.

I for one support their right to gender-affirming surgery.

I dunno. I’m kinda fond of drinking personally

Run it until it’s cold. You don’t need 5 minutes.

Yeah, the one at the water treatment plant.

As gen x- you open the tap, and you fucking drink. It’s not rocket science.

Well, as a garden hose drinker from back in the day, I’m here to tell you that it was run through a filter. It’s just that that filter was back at the water treatment plant. Same thing with public water fountains, which were everywhere. We’re not that goddamned tough. We weren’t slurping pond water through a straw or something like that.

The hill the local kids go tobogganing in winter very likely was already used in that capacity 2500 years ago as some archeological sites have shown.

No doubt by the fossilized remains of kids that perished on the slope by hitting the trees at the bottom.
