Customer taste preferences are definitely odd. I liked their pizza before the change, and really liked it afterwards.

Aye, the difference between me, diagnosed in preteens, and my friend, diagnosed at 3, is immense. I still have the odd craving and sometimes indulge with stupid results. She? Never even crosses her mind.
Lol, just around the corner is right. My doctor, waaaay back in the 90s, said a cure was 10-15 years away. I think it's just language they use. Especially when they are talking to the extremely sick/depressed who just learned what they have.
Lol, what? My mother bought that stupid ninja thing. Now my kids are going to be fed even more plastic?
Take three kids, chop one in half, feed it to the dinosaur garbage can. Easy peasy.
That's a culture-thing. I'm a member of two forums that are still pretty active. One views dead thread revivals as amusing, the other almost literally has a celebration in-thread when it happens as all the members with older posts in it come piling in. Heck, the second forum has a thread so active that people literally ask for, and get, recaps for the last X amount of time for it.
For better or worse, that aspect is never going away. Places with less funds, like rural counties and cities, rely on their police to do everything that gets called in to 911 and isn't fire/ems/construction (which, thankfully, they have dedicated teams/people for).
Oh god, what? I haven't seen any since the first either, was the movie fun enough to make it worth watching the series of them?
Oh man, you played too? There's dozens of us!
I remember having to learn how to use DOS commands to load the cd and start the game.
That just...seems so wrong. My mentally declining grandmother used firefox back in the 00s era (though now that I think about it, my uncle is a developer, so maybe he set up the computer). How have we backslid since then to where so few people know/use firefox?
Uh... have you ever owned a car long enough to need new injectors, radiators, or exhaust systems?
I've owned three vehicles that surpassed 400,000 miles, with one approaching 600,000 now. I've replaced a radiator once, and it was because of a small boulder tossed by a semi. Belts are usually less than $60, and are only replaced after 120,000 or so. Your average driver won't have to worry about those but once every 5-10 years. I've never had to replace a injector system (and if your dealer tries to sell you a service to 'flush' or 'clean' the injectors, decline; most auto manufacturers recommend not doing anything but replacing, as the service of cleaning/flushing is more likely to cause damage than actually be beneficial).
Fuel pumps are going to be brand-dependent. Don't buy ford, because good lord they suck and the pumps do go out, but again, I've never had to replace a fuel pump (my three are toyota, honda, and volkswagen).
If you pay for a tuneup, you're either racing or are a fool. One of those use cases isn't relevant to a discussion about the average person owning a vehicle.
Weird that the longer bars are worse. It's a cognitive flip, even if what it may represent (carbon footprint, maybe? Fossil fuel expenditure?) is growing with the lower tiers. Oh, and whoever made the poster missed the fantastic opportunity to use Heil! instead of hell.
