   I wonder if there is some geographical variation in the alarm sensitivity. I rarely hear car alarms in Helsinki, the capital of Finland. I have never noticed that any slight bumps or vibrations would set car alarms off. I have even scratche

    I'm amused how people considering raising or lowering the seat a lot of work. I don't understand why it is an issue. You should anyway close the lid when flushing to prevent toilet water and fecal matter from spraying around.

    Video calls are not remotely (no pun intended) the same as meeting face to face. In the office I can casually joke with the person sitting next to me, and it is usually visually evident when they are busy and I shouldn't bother them. I
