Ok, but that’s an extreme example and you only consumed 3.8L. 4.5L is a LOT. Even the 8 glasses a day of water suggestion is considered on the high side and that’s only 1.9L.

I have a favorite speciality beer that comes in around 13%. They used to sell it only in 22oz bottles and that was it for the night. If I decided to open one, I knew that was my one drink for the evening. They recently started selling it in

I can buy grain alcohol that’s 95% pure alcohol at my local liquor store. It might be kept behind the counter where I have to ask for it, but it is available.

If you are making a tunnel through a mountain to transport individuals, the cost of the vehicles is immaterial relative to the cost of the tunnel. A tunnel that can carry 700 people an hour is mostly worthless, even if it was cheaper than a

About the only place I spend cash regularly is the farmers market. I typically take out 80-120 dollars on my way to the market and come home with anywhere from 0-60 dollars and a pile of produce. I also probably bought coffee and something

While that's certainly an option, it would require both that I remember to grab my accumulated coins before leaving for the shop and that I spend extra time feeding them into the machine. These friction points will probably lead me to

True, the IRS is generally really good about fixing and refunding basic math errors. Had you missed taking a tax credit you were eligible for, there’s approximately zero chance you would have received a similar letter.

I know "nothing to hide" is never a strong argument but even if Signal is a CIA honeypot, if it keeps my personal conversations from becoming marketing fodder, sign me up!

Saying there's no parking and there's no free (as in money) parking are two very different things. Parking in the downtown of one of the ten largest metro areas in the US is going to cost money. That's just how it is.

The site does include a call to action. I think that’s the point where one needs to question things. I certainly don’t want to be the one that writes my Congressperson about this “hoax”. The next time I need something truly important, I’m l
