Cats going outside are a rounding error compared to habitat destruction and pollution.

The rulers of today have already bought nice chunks of London, Paris, New York. They’ll be fine.

The UK has some of the best produce in the world. What the average person at home does is of course something else but that’s no different in a lot of countries.

As someone mentioned rationing didn’t help the image but also the drabness of industrial canned food in the brown seventies. And people just forgot how to cook.

Most Europeans have one, max 2 cars per household. A fuckton of Europeans also go on holiday with their cars once or twice a year.

One car needs to work for most use cases. It’s fine if you have more cars than people in the house that one of them is a 100 mile range commuter, but a different kettle of fish if the same car needs to do an 800+ mile trip to the Mediterranean in summer and a 500 mile ski trip in winter.

I’ve read once that eating iron won’t do anything for your iron intake, but for example sticking some rusty nails through an apple for a while and then eating the apple would.

I’m a natural sprinter. Very fast on short distances. But the endless slog from one shop to the next, with no respite, no idea when it will end. When we come home I’m dead tired and empty. She’s dead tired and full.

Well that’s just cats in general. Vindictive little bastards.

Most people who ride bikes just ride bikes. And a minority are what you call “cyclists”.

You’re lumping them all together and are part of the problem. Dick.

Your yard in your summer residence then. Jeez

Honestly, how much TV can someone watch before it’s just a blur of all same same but different movies, series and whatnot?

Everyone is different though, for example I can’t for the life of me watch any series to completion. Sometimes not even the first episode. But I can lose hours trawling through all I can find on Sphagnum moss.

Hey. You are the one reducing what I’m saying as a sweeping all encompassing statement about someone’s humanity.

I’m saying that not being bothered to say hi and bye doesn’t make you an introvert. An introvert is someone being comfortable with his inner self and preferring deeper contact with few than being a beacon of energy in a crowd.

If you can’t be bothered saying hi to a stranger, of course you are still human. It’s just not necessarily a trait of an introvert. Its Part of another character trait or the state of mind you’re in.

You might be more than introvert. You can be shy, anxious, anti-social. A grumpy curmudgeon. All things extroverted people can also be.

Also saying hi and bye or an acknowledging nod are not small talk.

For a few items, sure. But even I, a rabid introvert, will seek out a cashier for my weekly shopping. To say hello and goodbye. You all forget to be human beings. Stop making being InTrOvErT yet another singular form of personal identity.

While the influence from the elite is undeniable, I also hope you don’t subscribe to the idea of the noble savage.

Stop buying girls pants and shop only boy stuff. Watch the industry squirm.

I looked into my wife’s bag once. I think I saw the Event horizon.

People are concerned or outraged again in the name of someone else. In this case Salma Hayek. Usually using that she tells the story of how uncomfortable she felt, leaving out the fact that she felt uncomfortable because of the snake. Not this.

Guys. This fellow here is missing a Lord of the Rings reference! Did you know that trilogy is 20 years ago now? Feeling old yet?

When people talk about mass transit they never have your scenario in mind. It’s a bullshit argument against doing anything.

You think construction companies enjoy having their men and tools stuck in traffic surrounded by about 50% of cars that shouldn’t and wouldn’t be there if people had valid choices?

It’s an and-and story. No-one in their right mind, except for rabid edgy internet communists wants to ban cars altogether.
