Single-speed bicycles suck.
They combine the drawbacks of a geared bike with the drawbacks of a fixed gear bike.
Whaaat.
I'm not necessarily challenging your opinion because aparently you're going to die on this hill, but ...
This is not a tiny hill.
But most people would say that single speed has none of the disadvantages of fixed.
As an aside, I have 3 bikes. I've never ridden a fixie but holy fuck I would love to have one.
Water is wet
I had and endless argument with some someone about this a while ago here's how it works (in my opinion) wetness is not a fundamental property of water instead wetness is having water on or inside something so a towel is wet when it has water in it. But a singular water particle by itself is not wet because it is not surrounded by water but most water is wet because they are all surrounded by other water particles.
Probably a slightly higher stair in a staircase one day
I live in a pretty mountainous area, but I can think of a couple blind corners on small hills near me. So probably the one on the way to the bakery while running or biking.
But I do a lot of ski touring so I'd rather die on one of the big ones.
The Office means the British version. The American office refers to the American version.
The word Himalayan is pronounced like Him-a-lay-an, NOT Him-all-ee-an.....
I've never heard it pronounced like that, and I live somewhere notorious for bad pronunciation. Is there another similar word pronounced like him-all-ee-an in your local accent?
You got room on that hill for one more?
There is a letter G in the word recognise. Bloody use it. What people all say is "reckonise" which is not the same word. Also driving on the left just makes way more sense.
driving on the left just makes way more sense.
Only because it's what you're used to. Also I know there are countries (Sweden, or was it Norway?) that have switched which side they drive on, and as far as I know no one has switched from right to left.
I have a reason. Most people are right handed. In a Right hand drive car with manual gears your preferred hand remains on the steering wheel when you change gears. Also messing with the stereo or climate controls also leaves your preferred hand on the wheel.
Anyone who puts always-on blue LEDs in electronics deserve the oubliette. People who put such LEDs in electronics meant for the bedroom deserve an oubliette that'a slowly filling with water.
"Because fuck your sleep cycle that's why"
Or just excessively bright LEDs. Just because LEDs are super efficient, doesn't mean they should take them as bright as they can go.
Oxford Comma.
My company has standardized document templates and none of them have Oxford commas. I will go through and add them any time I have to use one.
To this day I use it and refuse any other option.
