What is the condition of your sidewalks? My sidewalks are uneven and a neighborhood grandma who I walk with still prefers the street even though my street is not well lit. Uneven sidewalks are a tripping hazard that can be avoided by walking in the street. Her vision isn't great so a paved stretch of road is just easier to walk with a flashlight.

I live in a prefabricated home that is a different color than my neighbor's. Can I gift them one of these robots to get a blueprint of their house? It is already easily googled but I feel that making a robot do it keeps them lower on the food chain.

Niggard/niggardly sounds like a really, really, awful choice for a word to describe someone cheap like Scrooge. It's not a slur it just sounds way too much like one. The use of the word is controversial despite the only connection the two words share is how they sound.

I wouldn't use the word around people though. Explaining how a word that sounds racist isn't racist makes you appear to be more racist. It isn't a slur but gets treated as if it was one.

✓ quite offensive

✓ not a slur

X you probably still shouldn't use it

It was a U.N. escalator and not one of those Chinese escalators that eat people. The stars didnt fully align.

I like to think that the website is only accessible when someone is hitting the vape.

I've started listening to a King of the Hill podcast at work. The guys talk about every episode for about an hour which is more time than the episode. With more than 259 episodes at about an hour a piece I've got quite a lot of a single podcast to listen to.

Once you put your A team of Podcasts together you won't get bored. Podcasts cover every topic under the sun. I can't find it anymore but Stone Cold Steve Austin did a full episode of his podcast detailing the fighting he did against a woodpecker at his ranch. Other times the podcast will have a really good theme song.

I swear I'm not a podcast shill. It's just the most accessible media through my watch. A well curated library of subscriptions gets me through the week.

No matter what denomination of bills or coins it could be I'd rather see sam shove all that money up his ass. It could take a week or a month or even possibly a year and I wouldn't want to miss a minute of it.
