Deodorant is blue, deodorant + antiperspirant is white in the store. It’s also all aluminum free now which sucks. I miss the aluminum deodorant gel.

So he popularized the run on sentence, got it.

Hard to be a fan of someone you’ve never heard of. Did he invent the run on sentence?

Where we live is between $40-$50 every two months for trash and recycling for most services.

Certified pre-owned lease returns! I’m on my second and they’ve both been great cars for $22k or under.

That said, a big contributor is the amount financed. When we’ve bought new cars we paid $7k up front for mine and $5k for my wife’s plus our trade ins. Many, if not most, people can’t afford to do that so they have huge monthly payments even before interest.

Why not have a two stage torque process?

I know aerospace ≠ automotive but many years ago I worked in a shop and any time the wheels came off a vehicle the mechanic/tech torqued the lug nuts to spec, then a second person independently verified and re-torqued the lug nuts.

It seems like adding a network connection and all that goes with it also introduces additional points of failure, no?

People who casually imply that every pitbull is a fucking monster are so woefully illinformed, and usually completely unwilling to consider they don’t know all the facts.

If this was directed at me I wasn’t implying every pit bull breed type is a monster.

Certified, professional breeders might be breeding out the gameness but the backyard breeders and the accidental breeders aren’t.

The number of pit and pit mixes in shelters aren’t coming from professional breeders or their dogs. Our second adopted dog is a mutt but dominant breeds are Border Collie and Am. Pit Bull Terrier. We’ve got her pretty well trained now, but if another dog comes snapping and biting at her I have to jump in to get a hold of her because she’s still got enough game in her that, if provoked, she goes hard in the paint.

I will always believe that pit type breeds are not for inexperienced or lazy dog owners. They need work, structure and training consistently.

The enforcement of immigration law is a federal responsibility

Doesn’t matter if the individuals arrested under this are in compliance with federal law. The US CBP and ICE are responsible for enforcing immigration laws for the federal government. Abbott doesn’t like that he doesn’t have control and is trying to illegally mandate that he does.

Other border states work with the federal government but that doesn’t fit Abbot and the Texas Republikkklan’s agenda.

Why would anyone try and convince you of anything? French citizens don’t get a vote in US elections. Your opinions on them don’t matter much.

Violent Night is going to be a Christmas tradition of ours. I also checked out Fatman this year.

Are T&Cs retroactive? I would think any new T&Cs could only apply from that point forward, not that they could retroactively absolve themselves of liability or how you could pursue it.
