If you sleep in pyjamas or have a thin sheet between you and the chainmail, then perhaps the hair pinching would be less of an issue.

Could that also be a sign that the person is simply older?

Even $5k is extremely cheap for a good 6’1" grand piano in good condition.

That’s an interesting way to say burglary.

Some people say that there’s no such thing as a stupid question, but what you asked is proof that those people are wrong.

I was reading a book on the train. A guy had the nerve to come up to me and ask me about the book I was reading.

I agree. The peaceful people in Russia don’t deserve to be invaded. Pity there’s not many of them, though.

It does seem that there are box trucks based on the Ram pickup chassis, but I don’t think I’ve seen those in person. Most box trucks I see here in Canada are either based on a van chassis (usually Ford Econoline or Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana, but sometimes European-style vans like the Sprinter), the Ford F-650/750, or an actual truck chassis, like an Isuzu cabover or something from a company like Kenworth or International.

I once rented a cargo van to buy a mattress and bed frame from IKEA. It turned out that I didn’t need the van at all and could have packed everything into the 4-door sedan I had at the time. Part of it was because the mattress was rolled up in a compact manner. I seem to recall that the van could easily fit in one spot.

When I drove a small school bus, and I needed to park it somewhere in between the times I was transporting students, I generally looked for a spot at the edges of the lot to back into, where the back of the bus would overhang over the curb (I made sure it would never disturb any sidewalk). Of course, I did several times see full-sized school buses diagonally parked across 4 spaces at the far end of a large parking lot; after all, there’s not much else you can do with such a large vehicle.

Judging by the title alone, it sounds like the critics are pushing him.

Father/mother of computers, the person who first controlled fire.

Now I know that carnivorous sponges exist.

Perhaps memorize the location, or keep a piece of paper on your person (or a note on your phone) that tells you where it is?

When I went to Europe in 2022, I noticed a lot more smokers than here in Canada.

Tesla cars also have notoriously poor build quality, especially for the price; if you must buy an electric car, at this point, as far as I can tell, Hyundai cars are much better built. (Of course, we do need to remember that electric cars do not solve the problem of car dependency.)

When you think about it, the idea of Pokémon saying their own name isn’t actually that unrealistic: a lot of animals are named after the sound they make. Peewees, warblers, howler monkeys, kookaburras, hummingbirds, and I believe the ancient Egyptian word for “cat” is “mau”.

There is a burger chain in Canada called The Burger’s Priest, which is a religion-themed chain with several religious references on the walls. I only ever visited one when I did DoorDash and was picking up a customer’s order, so I don’t know how good they are.

Suit pants are nice, as are the shirts, but the jackets are frankly quite stupid. Plus, you have to take into account the fact that a well-fitted suit is only guaranteed to be well-fitted at the moment it comes from the tailor.
