The boat is mine. The boat is MINE!
You forgot to mention the furry porn… so much furry porn…
I loved my V60 (and my V20 before it). They were such great phones.
Penzeys! Amazing spices from an amazing company.
Arizona here. My August service bill is the highest of the year, usually ends up around $425 or so with the thermostat set to ~76. January is usually the lowest, and I can get that down to about $75. Averages out to about $220/mo over the year. It’s ridiculous.
As someone else said, Austin Powers really kneecapped 007 by dialing up every trope to 11, leaving seriousness as the remaining option.
Whois lookup says this. Doesn’t discredit the “hastily thrown together in an hour” idea, though.

This is quite a few years old now, but I think the main points are still valid. As you said, everything is so polished, kids don’t need to figure out how it works.

My dad bought me a ridiculously expensive (like $400) Samsung vacuum that I loved. It was strong, it came apart in really cool ways to make it versatile, etc.
It failed in less than a year.
The $60 Walmart special Bissell that I went and bought to replace it lasted for 8.5 years before the motor burned out (I screwed up and it got too much pet hair in it). I bought the same one again and it’s going on 5+ years with no issues.
Oh, the humanity!
I’m really curious what the difference could be between a $4 handle and a $60 handle, other than just greed.
Also when we’re told the tolls are to pay for the road, but after the road is paid off, the toll stays…
Whereas my ADHD has me keeping huge numbers of tabs open (although my record is only ~350) because once it’s closed, it’s completely gone from my mind. Bookmarks are a burial ground, and history has all the other stuff that I don’t need to reference anymore. With tabs, I can go through them and remember why I kept it around, and close it once I’ve actually done something with it.
Which was also a terrible change.
There’s one in Arizona heading north between Phoenix and Tucson that says 951 miles behind you.
