Those would be steppe worms. Wat r u doing, steppeworm?

Bah. Semantics. “Closest” in the title while leaving out average or most often. Closest could also mean “right now” as well if we want to play with words.

Do you feel lucky, punk? Well? Do ya?

I bet everyone is hyper-conscious of which hand they are using to do what right now.

Billionaire worshippers

Politician worshippers

Wealth worshippers

Fame worshippers

Basically people who defend people who don’t deserve or need to be defended. Wealthy people have lawyers to defend them, they certainly don’t need or want you, and they don’t need you to justify them making a million an hour in dividends or interest while sitting on their asses.

Politicians work for you, why do you worship your employee?

Famous people can fuck right off, especially influencers. Why do you defend someone destroying a $200k car or wasting absurd amounts of food?

E: oh, Military worship, too. That shit is right up there with fascism and autocratic rule.

Make a generalization and people attack your argument with exceptions and lack of specificity.

Make an argument with specificity and it has to be written with exceptions, caveats, disclaimers, becomes long-winded and nobody wants to read it. Or they throw a generalization at you.

Can’t win, but conciseness and a level of brevity are still good policy.

Far more profitable to screw honest players by being soft on cheaters or people engaging in harassment and the like.

If they created the fee they can list it. I’m sure accounting has a breakdown of how profitable each and every fee is.

Hah. Mine aren’t old enough yet to get the connotation.

We’re still here. We’re the latchkey kids even on the internet. We show up, pop a TV dinner in the microwave and watch the boomers and everyone after us fight. We remember the “good old days” of MS DOS, C64s and get cranky at having to fix both our parent’s electronics as well as our kids stuff; because ot seems most anyone after the advent of the iphone tends to be clueless about tech and would rather take a selfie than learn how to assemble today’s dead-simple PC components.

We’re the last group that had a shot at getting the cheese in the laid-out easy maze of graduating college with a degree and walking into a place we wanted to work and dropping off a paper resumee.

We’ve also been at the tail end of seeing things disappear. Pensions. Affordable health care. Affordable education. Realistic retirement. Company loyalty. Etc. so we’re caught between everything the boomers had and the generations after don’t. We’re a transitional group between rotary dial phones and the modern internet.

Nobody knows what to do with us. Not even ourselves.

So we get forgotten.

Not sure if that’s exactly what I was looking for. I see them adding an additional drive wheel to the car for a boost, but I don’t see assembling an EV/gas combined transmission system or anything. Maybe I missed it?

Was looking for something more like this:

Would add several hundred ft lb torque to the car.

According to everyone you talk to in FPS games nobody ever cheats.

This isn’t fear.

This is them trying to get rid of employees.
