In a first world country with access to excellent medical care, no underlying conditions in an otherwise healthy person you're probably going to be fine.

Thats not to say it might not be a significant contributor to what does get you.

If your married and kids are a forever no then dude should get the snip. Simple. I'm getting one soonish and if I ever find myself single again I'll still be wearing rubbers unless Ive had the chat.

Hanna once slapped the shit out of Barbera for saying he was bigger than Yogi Bear. Someone should have gone upside his head. "Oh no, you had a significant cultural impact on popular culure in the latter quarter of the century. This isnt about you."

It was an ok book, it was pulpy scifi (a genre I consume a lot of because I can pick it up and put it down easily). It could have been a GREAT movie but they dumbed down the story (which wasnt super deep to begin with) to cram it into a single movie and then couldnt be arsed/didnt want to pay for all the licencing they would need to do it right.

It actually needed some writers to go over it, expand it and make it a Trilogy.

Both the book and the movie left a lot on the table.

Am I the only person who is more deathly afraid of a life long STD that could fucking kill me than an unplanned pregnancy?

I dont care which one of us got the snip, unless I'm sure I'm the only dude you're banging I'm bagging the fuck up until I see some test results which I'll be happy to get and provide in kind.

Serious Sam was a wild first playthrough. Once you realised its just doom with everything up to 150% and the answer is almost always circlestrafing it lost its charm.

But the "Dude you have to try this" was real

The memes about it coming starting to pop up in mid october. Its one joke about the song being overplayed, the joke is never original, Ive never seen a creative version of it. If old people have "boomer humor" whats the short term for "Millenials without two brain cells to rub together who will share on any joke that they understand"

The song is well produced overplayed pandering pop garbage. The jokes about it suck more.

Ive been looking into what I can put together for the price I can get a Samsung q990f system for and this reciever seems to do everything I want and it has the benefit of being cheapish.

Essentially I want to watch 4k blurays on a 4k tv with good surround sound. I love the "one box, minimal wires, no legwork" nature of the Samsung. That has value to me. BUT its not quite as good and if something in the bar goes dead, the whole setup is pretty much garbage. So I'm exploring my options.

Second hand receivers that arent 15 years old are still demanding half of what that receiver costs me new, and it seems to have everything that someone setting up a budget 4k 5.1 home theater could want. So, thoughts?

Ok, I need an honest, no BS assessment on how a Samsung q990d system will compare to a cheap 5.1 (or 7.1 etc) system.

I can get a q990d for $1400aud which includes rear speakers and a sub. Will connest with the samsung tv and its all just ready to go out of the box.

Surround sound setups range from free to $40,000... of course a well thought out setup will be better but I just want to hear the cars overtaking me when I watch Ford Vs Ferarri.

For the "sub 2k" price bracket. As a novice, how much am I leaving on the table really?

17x7.5,, has a made in england stamping but no definitive stampings for pcd, offset or centerbore. Look like RS Cosworth wheels but arent. Has a retaining bolt hole for the flat bolt hole cover (which I'll post in another comment, which matches some 90s ford wheels) owner says they came off a Peugeot but my fellow french car enthusiasts say they definitely arent an OE Peugeot wheel.

If he was frozen at the very end of the 60s he spent 28 years frozen and was defrosted in 1997... which was 28 years ago this year.

Want to get a hint of what Austin went through being defrosted, go check out how poorly some of those jokes aged.

Malicious compliance story.

Friend of mine was paying child support for his kids, his ex wife was claiming no income as she had to look after the kids which he knew was bullshit and she was working in the new boyfriends restaraunt but claimed that she was just "helping out when she could. That stopped for a year when her and her new boyfriend wanted to buy a house, so he gave her a very nicely paid job working at his restaraunt as a "manager". They found and bought a house and immediately she was "fired" and went back to seeking child support.

So he sued to have the child support lowered as she can clearly work when it suits her goals and she fought it kicking and fucking screaming, tried taking away his access to the kids and generally making his life hell. So he went to the tax office with a hot tip "I'm willing to bet that between (insert dates here) this restaraunt somehow took in exactly (insert what ex-wife made + taxes) more than they normally do per year. Id be willing to bet it was their best year ever and I guarantee you will find some very cooked books"

Turns out its really easy to get custody when your ex-wife is being charged with fraud and tax evasion.

For me "How long could I get away with driving like an ABSOLUTE ASSHOLE all the time before I lost my licence or had an accident." Speed limits, red lights, stop signs... forget them all. Every day I have to drive sensibly and obey the law because without my licence I dont have a job, and every day I see at least one person driving like an absolute moron and I wonder...

Because that 2 lifetimes table doesnt cost $800 thats what grandma paid for it in the 50s when buying a 4 bedroom house for $30,000 and working at the mill for 50 years was normal.

It also weighs 3 tons and given that you live in a shitty 1 bedroom apartment and have to move every 6 months to an even smaller shoebox that costs an increasing % of your income every damn time, Its probably for the best that your shit is disposable.
