Ask any farmer about repairing modern farm machinery.

Have to ask permission to fix his own bloody car? What backwards-ass nonsense is this?  if I told my dad this story he’d lose his shit. He repairs classic cars. And is always complaining about new stuff.  This might be one of the few times I agree with him.

No.  They are all ugly trash.

Thank god someone else shares that view. They’re hideous landfill of the highest order; lazy reskins of pop culture icons for tat junkies. At least an action figure serves a nominal purpose. And if the above user is to be believed they're not even recyclable?? Fabulous. Each one made is killing the planet.

I fucking hate these things. They’re not even recyclable at most recycling facilities.  Once they hit their inevitable Beanie Baby crash, these things are going to be filling landfills for millennia.

Is it possible for me to just shoe horn that I think Funko toys are kind of the worst? Or is this a “let people have fun” moment?

Your “point” is like accusing a hostage of “participating” in a hostage situation.  There’s no other game in town, and no other way to survive in this society.

Isn’t going all in on Bitcoin going to put MORE strain on the grid? Isn’t that why China has started cracking down on crypto farms there?

By any chance do these people by and large attend church regularly?  Do they consider themselves religious?

I live in a red state, and I’m friendly with a lot of conservative folks. They’re genuine, hard-working, self-reliant, blue-collar people who I have tons of respect for... but they all watch Fox News, and I don’t understand how any of these people can identify with Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Jesse Watters, Trump,…

Even more so from a Texas DA. 

He's identifying the client's class in the hierarchy.

Rolling coal when a person is in the vicinity and when the individual rolling coal intentionally or knowingly causes that excess exhaust to contact that bystander is AT A MINIMUM an assault. They are causing their vehicle to “spit” on a living, breathing, human being that is worthy of dignity and not having his or her…
