Conversely, I stopped ordering shit from Amazon a month ago and my credit card bill hasn’t been this low in ages.  The convenience factor begs you to spend more money on shit you probably don’t really need.  

THIS!!! The universe is not only mind-boggling huge but time stretches farther than most people can comprehend. The current human race has ONLY been around for about 200,000 years. To put things into perspective, the Tyrannosaurus Rex species lived for 20 million years. For all we know there could have been ancient…

I would honestly hope that the first thing every single President in the last 50 years has done is to lookup who shot JFK and see if Roswell was real.  

LOL- I went to look this up and the first main Google image you get for “john casablancas” shows the lead singer’s father hanging out with Trump.

I’m kind of glad Shannon is one of the few people “suffering” through this.  She seems like a miserable person anyways.

I can relate as an Asian-American also. My wife and I own a small condo in Laconia, NH, which is HD-central. During the summer, there is a Hell’s Angels tent across the street from Weirs Beach that sells Hell’s Angels merchandise. Everywhere we go in that area, we are typically the only Asian people in the…

Umm yeah it is - there are lots of Glassdoor reviews from Amazon employees (especially in tech jobs) commenting on how cheap the company is in regards to office environments, equipment, etc. They try to keep overhead as low as possible across the board to maximize their income.

I grew up in an Evangelical Church. I left the congregation as soon as I graduated high school. The church does an excellent job teaching its followers how to use the Bible to justify being an asshole. For example: My cousin (who is an Evangelical minister) has 4 kids. His wife died of cancer and he desperately needed…

To be fair - it seems pretty wasteful to have a TV project “Concourse A is closed FOREVER” all day long.  

We’re all pretty lucky that nobody got killed in the missile strike. There were a few buildings that got turned to craters. I believe they intended to kill someone and missed.  We (including Trump) literally dodged a missile on this one.  

Why all the outrage? Klaus is pretty accurate in his assessment of the current EV market and it’s totally reasonable to predict that BMW will be making gas-powered engines through the next 30 years. Not sure how you derive “BMW doesn’t care about EVs” from that assessment. There is a huge group of BMW enthusiasts who…

The movie is OK but the Flights of Passage ride in Disney World is freaking amazing.

That’s amazing!  Congrats on finally getting to drive one - my 6 year old lives for Monster Jam.

A lot of the issue is also greater Boston cities who refuse to allow public transit in their neighborhood. Melrose has two commuter stops and the Orange line (Oak Grove). Other neighboring cities like Stoneham and Saugus have been pestering to build a parking garage at Oak Grove to house more cars/commuters. What…

SUVs are getting a lot more efficient these days. My wife and I have an X5 plug-in hybrid that weighs about 5300 lbs (roughly 2000 lbs heavier than most sedans). If we used it strictly for commuting purposes (in city-only driving) we could easily go 700+ miles on a single tank of gas. When the battery is empty it…
