Depending on the wording I would assume that the small lights in a fridge or a small flashlight or maybe even Christmas lights count. I think those should fit through many bottles pretty easy.

I live in Green Bay, WI. Not huge like Madison/Milwaukee but a decent size (IMO). Maybe I have just been really unlucky or oblivious. I only just found out last year that every year, for a long time now, ships come and port here, like

I default to America as that's where I live. I don't think much of our public transport. Sure where I live they probably don't need more than just the buses we have but I had never seen a passenger train (just cargo, as far a

It still doesn't make much sense here though. I assume that where you are the speed limit is in km/h. Here it's mph. No matter what I have to know how fast I am going in mph so it makes no sense to bother knowing what I'

Does most of this apply to newer things (cars, clocks)? My car has a clock but I have no method of changing anything but the hour/min. The speedometer is analog...I guess I could try to read the small print that displays in km...my ala

My first thought when they mentioned it was the optical illusion where the color looks different because of the colors around it[0]. Maybe having distinct colors (red/blue) would help with that. [0] Bad at explaining so an image: http

I read it as a question, because of the question mark, not a statement/argument. If one extreme (high salt) is bad, is the other extreme (no salt) also bad? I suppose it could be an argument but the way I read it was that they were uns

Just out of curiosity are there more options than that? I don't think I'd lump Imgur or Tumblr into either of those categories. Edit: entertainment. Thought of it on my own...

I know I am not them but since you seem to want some data^H^H^H^H opinions. I would exclude any songs with words. Probably something slower like Moonlight Sonata but I could see something like 1812 Overture being good (cannon shots and volc

I think you could also say you manage instead of own and it would still make sense.

I don't like watching others play games (never did) but I find reading about things like the Eve battles, strange things that happened while testing engines (Oblivion), and this after (or during) the fact. This one I just love reading

Now it seems silly but while I was going through the thread many responses had something worded similarly. After reading so many of those comments I was probably primed to see negativity everywhere. eg. It's not THIS it's THAT. (I

I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or agreeing or not. Usually your comments are good so I am going to believe you are sincere here. Somewhat related I am one of those people who needs to make a change as I get >1000 calories f

With Word and the like you can put 'ms' in front at least. The biggest issue I have when searching (for things I don't know the proper name for) is when punctuation is part of the search. Even with quotes it seems to ignore q

It's ridiculous considering the variety of activities that require internet. According to the usage chart for the last few months when I log into TWC our house uses more than 5GB a day (we have 3 adults and a kid in the house).
