Probably not super unique but a glass breaker/seatbelt cutter. If I’m in an accident or I come upon one, I want that ability with me.

Yea, what about your liver? Have you asked how it feels today?

Obligatory XKCD: https://m.xkcd.com/977/

I sort of agree in that parents should teach in addition to schools. However, this feels like entitlement showing because it makes a bunch of assumptions about parents (that others have already commented on), but just even having parents. There are a lot of people who only have one parent, or no parents for various reasons. What about kids who lost one of their parents to cancer and their remaining parent doesn’t have the capacity to teach the subjects you mentioned? Schools provide an opportunity for common education for everyone.

You might want to consider a more thorough wiping of your area code next time. It’s pretty easy to figure out what it is through the scribbles

Every so often I listen to Lady Gaga. I really like a few of her earlier songs but haven’t listened to most of her discography.

I hate that music and gender are somehow connected, but unfortunately that’s the world we live in. Anyone who gives me crap for listening to/doing/etc. “girly” things is a person I don’t want in my life.

One recruiter (who was there head of recruiting at this company) I talked with several years ago drilled me on why I had switched jobs every 2-3 years. Tell me you know nothing about the modern job market without telling me you know nothing about the modern job market…

I get out of the first area maybe 50% of the time? I rarely get beyond the second area. Still love the game, but it’s really difficult for me.

Yea, I said it

I installed one in my garage a bit over 5 years ago and have never had a problem with it. My parents also installed one in their garage several years before that. They did have an issue with it at first but I think they replaced it with a newer version of the charger (same version I have) and haven’t had any issues since then.

I am so glad they didn’t hire me. Their interview process was a complete mess.

Probably a bit out of the $50 budget: a massage.

Biometrics are a terrible security feature IMO. MAYBE if used in conjunction with other things like a username and password, but never on its own.

I’ve been using the Breathe Right “Extra Strength” ones. They are the only ones that have reliably stayed stuck to my skin overnight and strong enough to keep my nose open.

A knee pillow. I have always struggled with the occasional back pain because I would sometimes twist my legs/back at night and be in pain the next day(s). A knee pillow has massively changed that for me. I pretty much never have issues with my back caused by sleeping weird now.

In a similar vein, nasal strips. My nose often gets obstructed at night and it caused a ton of sleepless nights because I had a hard time breathing. Finding the strong nasal strips I’m now using pretty much eliminated that problem.

How can birds have laws if they aren’t real?

GTFO. It has honed a ton of skills for me. Coordination/cooperation, accuracy, ammo conversation, fast problem solving, the ability to switch from fast to slow and back very quickly, the list goes on. It’s the most intense game of red light green light I’ve played.
