I used to do the same, and for stationary PCs, that’s still my recommendation. Sure, some might actually need bleeding edge stuff for for some specific niche high performance thing, but for most people that’s a waste of money.

The only exception is for laptops. I rely on laptops as I’m often on the go, and I’ve generally had better results when going high end (within reason) than going mid-tier.

iPhone 3G. Awful performance, even worse battery life, no multitasking, next to no storage space, couldn’t do shit without iTunes, and even with iTunes the options were severely limited. Overpriced locked down piece of shit. Streamlined UI was pretty much the only good thing about it. Got an android phone not long after and it was like night and day.

The reason for the name of their starter city, Shole

Where from? Asking for a friend…

Ok, hear me out…:

(Yes, I know that’s substantially newer, but the only alternative I could think of from my actual childhood is Jessica Rabbit or the original Ariel)

For some reason this pyramid scheme (World Games Inc) was highly popular where I grew up. “Everyone” was in on it, but my family somehow wasn’t. But you couldn’t even strike up a casual conversation with anyone without it ending up as a sales pitch. It was fucking tiresome. Luckily the thing folded eons ago.

Noted. Edited post accordingly, but my point still stands.

Fresh urine is sterile, but has everything bacteria needs to thrive once they arrive. And a week of room temperature is exactly how they prefer their new home. You’re basically handing them a 5-star hotel with luxury meals included.

Fresh piss may be gross, but room temperature aged piss will definitely make you sick.

EDIT: Turns out it’s not sterile. But at least it’s not 90% bacteria by weight

Or possibly a cat. Or a dog. Or one of the many other animals that really care about pissing spots.

Coors

I often “accidentally” drag my feet a little bit to make my footsteps are a little bit more audible.

I’m usually a very quiet walker, so I just want to make sure my presence is known, as opposed to startling people.

There once was a woman named Piggot
Who voted for a dumbass bigot
Then she lost her job
Along with poor Bob
And she thought she really would dig it.

Same

No. No, man. Shit, no, man. I believe you’d get your ass kicked sayin’ something like that, man.

Same. It’s part of my daily routine.

I’d leave the clone part out

What’s your favorite dinosaur? 🦕

Do Golems Dream of Concrete Sheep?

I’d totally watch a Blade Runner based on that book instead.
