Have they outlawed people making fun of people that wear shoes with lifts in them yet?

Love them! Just got back to the US after driving around Portugal and Spain. I especially love the ones that replace what would typically be a string of 4 way stops with traffic lights. It is great, especially when there’s no traffic, to be constantly moving rather than stopping, waiting, and starting. Also, can’t complain about the huge (well studied and documented) impact on safety.

Edit: Also, I hate traffic circles! My wife and I use the 4 way stop, traffic circles, and roundabouts as analogies of different types of solutions. Roundabouts are the ideal solution (saves lives, land, $$, etc.), 4 way stops are less than ideal solutions that work, and traffic circles are the worst of both worlds.

Having read their book a couple of times, I’m not sure their own God would enjoy their architecture very much. Considering we still have a lot of poor people and other issues that they could have been fixing all of these years with their money and time, rather than actively crusading against many of them.

I agree on Stouffer’s, but I knew about that one as I live in the same region as the original US factory for them. However, I stick with whatever knock-off brand looks best these days. Yes, being intimately familiar with the finickiness of cats, that is the only option.

Fingers crossed

Yes, it is virtually impossible in the U.S. anyways. I’m mostly joking, but I do have a very long list. lol

Good reminder for me too, thanks! I haven’t memorized the full list yet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nestlé_brands

I’m only shocked that it took this long

Too bad my beer tastes weren’t as refined yet. Maybe then I wouldn’t have shit my pants! Stupid Miller Genuine Draft. lol

I’ve found most people are more talk than action. I am almost to the point of having to create my own supply chain as my boycott list continues to grow over the years lol

Thanks! Hope to be there by the end of the year if everything works out! Heading home after spending a week looking at houses.

I will certainly continue voting!

I still care about everyone in the country. So, I’ll definitely still continue voting.
