No I googled it, they're correct. Lead in gas was outlawed in the 90' but they started phasing it out starting in the 70's. I started driving in '84 and don't recall ever having a choice but my memory is fallible

Lead was phased out long before then. A steady decline in crime has been attributed to it's removal. Not just in the US but in other countries also
The Roman numeral M=1,000. Greek kilo (K)=1,000. The only plausible explanation is the local sewer district is run by Romans.
Phyllis Fong is her name. She is brave and she deserves to be recognized
Is it a doxxhund? I can't tell
There's a lot of losers on Lemmy. They talk tough but they're full of shit. Sorry to hear you have to put up with that
Anything to deflect how stupid it was to sit out the election. Eat shit morons you get what you deserve
I nominate Pete Hegseth's mom.
If you were lucky enough to get a very heavy rain say three inches you would have three inches of water in that can. For it to work enough to be practical you need a large surface area that diverts the rain water into the can. A roof with a downspout is a good example
I remember arcades being dimly lit. Otherwise the glare would mess with you when playing a game. Also the noise! Admittedly i skipped through this video but some of what I saw was definitely from the 70's. Pinball was pretty much dead during the 80's but made a resurgence late in the decade into early 90's when they got a little more high tech.
Got a new snowblower also thinking the same thing would happen to me but I've gotten quite a bit of use out of it already.
Like everyone here in have stories but instead of adding to the pile may I offer a simple solution. I tell people who fall this stuff to make a list and post it on their fridge. If just one of them turns out to be true they can call me up and rub it in my face. There are two reasons I suggest this. First, the people in the media who push this stuff keep a steady flow of BS incoming. They put out a new one to distract from the last one. Second, back in 2011 I realized it's like a cult and I did a little looking into what it takes to get people to snap out of it. The expert I found said there is nothing you can do, folks have to reach their own conclusions. Should any of your friends come around just let it go, don't make a big deal about it.
