Who the hell is bringing their DL mistress to a family barbecue? If she's there, there is no stinking way his wife doesn't know about it.

If the wife doesn't approve of it then yeah, he's pressing the self destruct button on his marriage and bringing drama into a space it doesn't belong, but I think it's way more likely she knows what's up and is cool with it.

It's crazy they won't cover that. My girlfriend flew herself and a friend to Turkey a few years ago and paid for hotel stays and it still ended up being cheaper to have her reduction done there than it would have been for her to do it state-side

I've seen most of them already, but I'm currently bouncing between Person of Interest and iZombie for this vibe

My friend got a follow up allergy test after believing for decades that she was allergic to marijuana. Nope, she was allergic to plants themselves. Just all of nature wants her to break our in hives.

On the bright side, now she can eat gummies

At this point, Trump feels like the sin eater. Everybody knows he's deeply unpopular. Let him put his name on every cursed initiative to cede power to the corporations and see how long you can wait to completely disavow him on his way out the door. Keep the bribers lobbyists happy and minimize fallout from your constituents. Let the billionaire-controlled media spin it up for you.

I really enjoyed the game, but I may have just gotten lucky with the timing. I wanted a slower paced decision-making game.

I do think the game would benefit hugely from a Quickplay and/or Challenge mode. The combat was a blast once it got going. That's the biggest thing keeping me from replaying it

You replied to a blanket statement with a blanket statement. "You still need hearing protection with a silencer," and "No you don't."

Now you've narrowed the scope.

In almost all cases the firearm becomes “hearing safe” where one does not need earpro.

That's good. But don't pretend you weren't wrong to begin with.

A suppressed .308 report is 147-151 dB. .308 Winchester is by no means an exotic cartridge.

My "semantic" argument is that if you take a hunting rifle out on the range and run it with a suppressor and no ear protection, you are exceeding the threshold where hearing loss can occur.

The answer to "You still need hearing protection with a silencer," is not "No," it is "It depends."

Yeah, I definitely had to come back to this after some coffee. I thought the first two panels were of the same family and this was some weird time progression situation. Couldn't figure out where the other person imagining the scenario in the third panel came from.

Ooh, or the ones with Jalapeno slices in them. Yum

I think the issue is that I know where all the old Superchargers are around me and just assumed they would work. I bought my Ioniq used and they only gave me 20% when I rolled off the lot, so when the first couple chargers I tried didn't work, I had some range anxiety that I hadn't experienced in a long time after 7 years of EV ownership.

Luckily I found a level 3 CCS1 charger and got enough to get me home. Back to overnight level 2 charging and daily driving is a breeze again.

I've seen a lot of Sheetz' with EV charging on the East Coast. Decent coffee and Made To Order food. That's worked pretty well.

It will be interesting to see how well it holds up now that I've traded my Tesla in for an Ioniq5. I didn't realize that a lot of Superchargers don't actually support non-Teslas, even with a NACS to CCS1 adapter.
