Guess I’ll add this to the list of reasons I’m keeping my current car until it falls apart.

What’s stopping people from disconnecting the EPB and manually connecting a battery to the motor to wind it back?

If you buy an object, you pay for all the components that come with that object. If they didn’t charge for all the components that’s on them. As others have said, heating elements don’t require any continued support from the manufacturer. It’s a button and some wires and a control module. Should they be charging for window defrosters too? There is literally 0 explanation for this that isn’t corporate greed.

Why is the parking brake involved with the computer at all…

My email account is almost entirely spam and ads. Have at it morons.

It would be really great. I HATE shaving that part of my face. Doesn’t matter how well I prep or what razor I use. It always hurts. I don’t like having facial hair but just that would be tolerable.

This camel has an adamantium spine.

Yes. It was unrelated to the relationship though. The result is that most of my random aches and pains are gone. I can do a lot of strength related things I used to have to ask for help with, and I look great when I take my shirt off.

I live around a lot of these people and I’m always confused by where the attitude is even coming from. We rarely even encounter immigrants around here and when we do they’re usually working in some kind of service industry job just trying to live their life, maybe harder to communicate with due to language barriers, but to hear these people talk you’d think they’re rampaging through the streets. Like I can think of one instance where an illegal immigrant that worked at a Mexican restaurant here raped a woman. That’s as far as I’m aware the only one that’s been an issue and it was over a decade ago.

That’s crazy to me. I only use my local bank at their physical location. I feel like the fact that they exist in close proximity to their customers who can put hands on them gives them a little extra incentive to not do corrupt bullshit.

It doesn’t make me feel better. It makes me feel like our situation is hopeless.

You’d think that, but that’s part of the point and magic, and it does not necessarily add up to that point of “leave us both more stressed than ever”.

It does me. You all are acting like I have no experience with this. Finding out other people are suffering the same as me doesn’t make me feel better about the situation. It makes it feel more hopeless.

Why would I want to just add more shit to what someone else is dealing with and then have theirs added to me? That would just leave us both more stressed out than ever.

I was stressing out just trying to read my fucking work benefit options last week…

Literally all I could say to any of this would be downer shit. That’s why I hate small talk. It’s just depressing and I feel like it makes me look bad.

I use a password manager in my personal life but my job doesn’t allow it so I have to keep the 10 or so passwords I have for various vendor sites in my notes. All my passwords are the same thing with slight variations to meet the different asinine password policies the different sites use. It’s fucking stupid but I don’t care if they’re not going to give me a good way to keep all this shit straight.

But only a little. Wouldn’t want to lose too much interest and hurt the credit card companies profit margins.

Oh boy, that’ll cover a few months of increased expenses…

Oh right everyone lives in a HOA now and privacy fences aren’t allowed.

I look great naked. The world deserves to see.
