Not all adults are college or high school graduates.

My Dad was a down and dirty in the trenches NYC commuter for 30+ years. When I was 10 he took me to a Rangers game and taught me the “Lady or +20 rule”. 

A gentleman never makes a lady stand - they may opt to stand, but if the car is full, offer your seat.

If someone appears to be at least 20 years older than you -…

All I can do is laugh... I just complained about this the other day. So now you’re not only running popups that complain about my use of an adblocker, but you’re writing articles asking me to whitelist by favorite blogs?

It’s bad enough everything is diving behind paywalls, or subscription services, and every tom dick…

Yeah - What’d she have to say about it!?

Speaking of “Annoying Browser Notifications” I find it annoyingly hypocritical that the site that introduced me to ad blockers (and AdBlock Plus in particular) more than a decade ago - Now complains every time I come to the site BECAUSE I’M RUNNING AN AD BLOCKER.

Oddly enough you are not the only person I know who has had this problem.

One thing you need to know - with a grain of salt - is that the gmail.com domain was an email service for 2 or 3 other companies before Google bought it it 2004. So it is possible that crazy granny’s DIL had one of those addresses.

I too grabbed the “first initial last name” @gmail.com

Wow - Ok in my defense I grew up in New Jersey, the Diner capital of the world.

I go to my local greasy spoon for 3 reasons - awesome cheap coffee, free high speed wi-fi, and the best damn Eggs Benedict on planet earth.

They have all the go tos - pancakes, french toast, waffles, omelettes, and egg galore. And they are all top notch diner grub.

But!

But man those Eggs Benny! Man they are just the…

Ok I get what you’re trying to say - but lets say 10, 10 of the “Lots of people” you know who complained - lets say they were scientifically deficient (illiterate or ignorant it doesn’t matter). Let’s say 10 of them, are the “THEM” when it’s “Us (science) Vs. Them”.

If even just one of them - opens that door to…

You mean “Pee Wee’s Breakfast machine” right?

I feel the same - I just type those three terms into YouTube. There are a few really well made how to sites by some of the bigger named artists, but nothing official that I have come across.

A misprint in Sky & Telescope magazine in 1929 is responsible for the common, wrong, definition of “2 full moons in one month”. The original definition of “the 3rd of 4 full moons in a season” was more important for ancient peoples.

You have a point; but my brother, who competed in the MIT Rube Goldberg challenge, and I debated this.

Yup.

Because the “devices” (Steps) in this one need to be “reset” (manually returned to a usable waiting state) before it can be run again this is a chain reaction machine.

If the “devices” were self-resetting, or returned to a usable state automatically this would be a Rolling Ball Sculpture.

If under any condition they…

There. Fixed it.

TL;DR

For some it’s just that we can’t go home.

Apple Juice.
My Mom thought most Juices were too sugary so we were not allowed to have then regularly. We had OJ - but only the 4oz that fit in the “juice glasses”. However, once sick we got apple juice. Big pint glasses with what I later learned was slightly watered down Apple juice. To this point, years later, as a…

Amatrue - I have been doing this for the past 10 years, so I can proudly say you’re missing half the list! (I’ll post pictures soon) ;-)
