While I get where you’re coming from, it’s more than just mortgage + PMI. A lot of first time home buyers don’t account for all the expenses of home ownership. It’s mortgage + PMI + property tax + repair costs + home insurance and other little things.

How can you know the “best” probiotics, when researchers don’t even know if they are beneficial, and if they are beneficial, which ones or how much someone should take?

“If it’s too cold for you, it’s probably too cold for your pet, so keep your animals inside”

“Too cold for me” when wearing what clothing? Too cold for me naked is probably 65 F, where if I’m wearing my winter gear, I can stay outside in -20 F indefinitely and be just fine.

Personally I agree, but that’s not how it works in a lot of cases. For instance, driving drunk vs driving drunk and hitting someone but they live vs drunk driving and hitting someone and they die are all different crimes.

I wonder if the author knows that most of the acreage of lawn (not number of lawns, because urban is dense and has many small lawns) doesn’t require any watering? Most of the US is not anywhere close to being in a drought, and in those places, they don’t need to water their grass at all.

I can’t make other people do things, but I’m a guy and I have lots of preferences.

On the contrary, we should all be willing to have whatever preferences we want on who we date.

The 6 foot rule already is very limiting (only 12% of men in the US are 6 foot or taller). 6'4" means you’ve shrunk your potential population to 1% of men in the US.

Neither of the suggested replacements for “We need to talk” are better than “We need to talk.” Both of them still sound like something bad (could be) bad. Instead, let the person know the topic, or at least if it is good or bad (or neutral).

The mistake I learned was not treating all of my wants the same. When I was hunting for an apartment, I had made a big list of everything I wanted, and I found myself judging apartments based on how many of my wants they checked off. But really, that’s a bad process.

Chick-Fil-A chicken breasts are the size chicken breasts are really supposed to be. The oversized breasts you see these days are from chickens which have been bred to have huge breasts to the point the chicken can barely walk. The meat quality also suffers.

Let me get this straight- because how many miles you get out of a charge varies based on conditions you want to standardize the reporting based on “number of days of work commuting you can do between charges”? What? This is the least standard thing I can imagine. This has all of the problems of a mileage estimate and…

The tools to check if the driver is attentive need to be thought of as helping a driver who wants to drive well but got distracted or whatever, not something to prevent a driver from doing something dangerous.

Other than the first one, what makes any of these phones “for old people”?

I don’t think any major brands of pellets use binders. Even Traeger pellets which are considered on the low end of smoking pellets are binder free.

I agree, but I think it is more like “Vin Diesel goes to a game to watch basketball” and “The Rock goes to a game to be seen at a Lakers game “

I'm not arguing that. I'm simply saying the breach of justice didn't happen today, it happened three years ago when a shitty DA did shitty things. 

This case is hard, because Cosby sucks so much. But ask yourself this- if a DA made a deal with a low level drug offender saying “if you testify in this other case, we won’t prosecute you for your drug case” and then a year later, that DA left and a new one stepped in and said “Well, that deal was with the other DA,…

It was not a benefit to Cosby- it was a benefit to his accuser. Without the promise of no prosecution, Cosby could have plead the fifth on all questions asked, and his accuser wouldn’t have won her civil suit. By removing threat of prosecution, it removed his ability to plead the fifth.
