Right? I've seen plenty of people who don't know how to swing a hammer.

Oddly enough Bruce was recently diagnosed with high blood pressure, so he takes a statin now. We thought he was just getting old and slowing down a bit, vet caught it, we've been doing meds, and he has returned to his old self again, with a touch of senility, a lot of meowing and nothing. But yeah, hopeful it'll help avoid a stroke.

I read your comment a few times before I understood it. Thank you

And the insurance did end up paying, but nine months later after what is referred to as a legal battle. So presumably these folks had to go into their own pockets for it. Typical bullshit.

I had two cats, one who goes out often, one who went out once in a blue moon. The tenses tell the tale here.

And I don't mean to suggest your statistics are incorrect, just that I find it funny to have experienced the opposite. Bruce Willis lives on, and it's entirely possible his life ends outside due to any number of reasons, but he just craves the outdoors, to the point of being really annoying about it.

And it's weird, I always attribute it to my wife having found him and our other cat on the streets, they were both 2-3 years old, but Rudi took to mainly living inside (maybe she'd hang on the porch from time to time, or sat some grass), whereas Bruce yearns for the neighbors' shrubberies. He's 14ish, and hopefully we get another 14 out of him, despite him clearly going crazy.

I learned the Vail/Morse thing from a Jon Bois video. His videos have taught me a lot of things, some useful, most trivial, but all stuff.

I dunno, if the vaccine was "safe," and it really comes down to will this stop me getting a cold, I'd take one for the team. Maybe not the flu or COVID, although COVID never affected me so maybe I wouldn't be a good candidate.

We just need an island of clones that we can test on, because clones aren't real!

The CD's (singular) tracks and the CDs' (plural) tracks. Or would it be CD's'? That's my one gripe with putting the apostrophe s for acronyms.

But then when talking about someone getting "all As" in school, it's easy there to realize what's being said, but when someone asks "What grades did you get in school?" And you respond "As," now it's just the word as.

Grammarizing spoken word is a major part of my job and I think about this shit all the time, and sometimes things conflict, and it's dumb, it's all dumb! That's it!

I'm currently listening to them, on book 11, whatever it's called. Read them all a few years back. My problem is I have a difficult time placing things in one book or another, so despite being in the midst of it, I can't discuss anything with you!

Yeah, consistently the best place to live, but let em hate.

Avoid it, because it was so good.

Yeah, I'm 38 and remember red pistachios. Also remember finding some sort of worm thing burrowed into one of those red pistachios, while I was sitting at my grandfather's kitchen table eating pistachios. Didn't stop me. Well, it stopped me from eating that one. But I'm always leery if a pistachio has a hole in it.
