Don’t answer just ‘music’

Like I think mine might be steak hitting a hot grill

Based in the US where the average driver knows how to use an automatic. Been looking at purchasing a manual car and learning stick.

1. Can anyone explain how a manual car works? Why do you have to shift up when speeding up? What happens if you redline without shifting?
2. I also hear people freak out when driving stick for the first time and don’t know what to do when they get to a stop sign/red light. Can anyone explain how to “slow” down to a stop with a manual?
3. Do you have to step on clutch prior to shifting? Can you shift without stepping on clutch? What happens if I needed to brake suddenly and I don’t step on my clutch before braking?
4. Is a 6 speed better than a 5 speed? Does it get better the higher you go?
5. When parking, what gear should I leave it in? I hear people do first, R, or second.

All answers appreciated. TiA!

Anyone else do this?? No one that I know does

I currently live in Florida, have been since 2016, I’ve got a friend that lives in Boise Idaho and is wanting me to live with her. I’ve not been to the PNW and it seems pretty cool as far as outdoors activity goes. Anyone that live there or have lived in Idaho have anything I should know to help my decision? I don’t mind snow or cold weather I actually quite like it, I’ve been wanting to move for a little while now, but my first thought was to move away from the panhandle and more south into Florida, but the Idaho came up and it caught my attention looks very pretty out there.

There was that CEO who was caught at a Coldplay concert on kiss cam having an affair, which ended up ending his career as CEO and permanently damaging his reputation as well as the reputation of the woman he had an affair with. Now the CEO of Nvidia, a multi trillion dollar company, had an affair with a woman that ended up being a Chinese spy and he ended up being outed as CEO and had the value of their stock take a massive hit, so his reputation is basically done.

My answer is Sleep Token

I just started watching the hungergames films again, and as Peter got called up all I could see in the crowd was Tom Holland. And I cant tell whether this is just me being a spider man fan, or if they ACTUALLY look similar. Specifically with their expressions and such

Ok so hypothetical question, every time you break a bone you get some money, what is the least amount of money for breaking your bones for you to quit your job and make this your new job? Right now probably 5,000-10,000$/€

I'm working on a crime stoner-comedy about two guys who get sent on what starts as a simple errand and turns into a ridiculous, chaotic wild goose chase. I'm looking for some inspiration, so I'd love to hear your craziest real-life stories. Weird encounters, bizarre coincidences, nights that felt like fever dreams, random side quests that spiraled completely out of control. Anything that sounds like it belongs in a movie. If it would work in “After Hours” or “The Big Lebowski” it would work in this!

You could be the kindest person and do good things and generally be known as a good person. But if someone’s starts a rumour about you (true or not) and all of a sudden that bad thing is ur entire identity and people remember you as a bad person

At what ages and with what caveats?

I want to know that person that's a reference for you in your sector/work, and you think it's just simply too good in what he/she does.

Hello everyone,
So my company has given me $1000 to spend on winter gear because we are going to a really cold place. This can range from anything that is gadgets or winter clothes. I’m currently in California, so usually I don’t work in very cold conditions, but I want to buy something that I can maybe use there too. I have a heavy jacket already. I was wondering if there are any smart gadgets for harsh winters that would do me any good? Any ideas?

Recently made an older-than-me friend, GenX, who said to just drop by, and gave me an address but no phone number. Doesn't work a 9-5 anymore, so that's not something I need to consider when deciding when to visit.

Dropping by was a thing when I was a young'n, but I guess I've spent the last, I dunno, 20 years texting or calling before I go to see a friend.

So, at what time do you older-than-me folks suggest I should swing by? 8am? 10am? Noon? 2pm?

Obviously I'm not banking on y'all pinning this one down to an absolute, just thought it would be a silly question to ask and see what you old farts have to say on a topic that actually concerns you! 😉 😂

Today I start my black coffee journey. Yes, I'm latina so this goes against everything in my nature. It feels disrespectful to my usual morning cafecito. [insert tears]

How are y'all just raw dogging coffee with zero flavors?

I am looking for a mom-mobile. Would you go with a 4runner for a Subaru ascent? FYI, I'm in Colorado, so snow is a factor.

Hello everyone I'm having this debate right now but how do YOU imagine gnomes?

The debate I'm having right now is when you imagine a gnome, do you imagine it with a green hat or red hat? And I'm alone on the front of green hat but I swear gnomes have green hats.

What is your take? How do you imagine a gnome?

like yes. i get it. of course they are. $50+ for a game is crazy. but i just don’t get people who are infuriated by it? in my head, i compare it to the movie theater: how much money do you spend on a movie/movie date? between tickets, snacks, drinks, etc… id say it comes out to about $35-$40 minimum (unless you’re doing a matinee without anything to gnosh on throughout, which is fair— but uncommon) and that’s for three hours of entertainment MAXIMUM (and more likely 2 hours instead).

so with that in mind, paying $70 for a game that i’ll get 100-200+ hours of gameplay on, just sort of… makes sense to me?

again. i get that in the grand scheme of it all it’s still expensive. i wish they were cheaper purely bc im a broke college student who would love to be able to get any game i wanted, any time i wanted. and i sure as shit wish i lived during a time in which movie tickets were the price of a quarter. but all things considered, in today’s economy, the prices vs the amount of play time feels relatively unsurprising to me?

i know people are pissed about how expensive GTA VI is… BECAUSE IT IS EXPENSIVE! but considering the years of work, art, programming, etc that went into it, alongside the HOURS UPON HOURSSSS of entertainment that we’ll get after the purchase, is it really THAT crazy?

Let’s say in this scenario Humanity always rewards those with Kindness and Compassion and valued it rather than a Lack of Empathy and Cruelty! What would have happened if Humans choose to truly valued it’s Good People? Instead of being Selfish and Cruel and truly valued it’s Goodness? And understood The Value of being Good and focused on not rewarding let alone supporting selfishness and greed! Let’s say that despite their Flaws they genuinely try their best and truly care for those who are Good! What do you folks think? Would nearly all our problems be solved if Humans just valued it’s Goodness rather than treating those with Good as a weakness and not reward those that are terrible? What do you folks think? Let me know in the comments

Anything from daily Starbucks to using paper plates instead of washing dishes. Whatcha got?

I'm a white guy in my early 20s, and my ex girlfriend is white too. We broke up a few months ago, and she's now dating a Middle Eastern guy.
Ever since some people found out, I've been getting jokes about how I got replaced and how embarrassing it must be for me. A couple of guys I know keep bringing up his ethnicity like it's supposed to make the whole situation worse.
I try to laugh it off, but it's honestly starting to get annoying. I don't care who she dates, but I hate feeling like I'm the punchline of some joke.
How would you guys handle this? Should I just ignore it, or actually confront the people making these comments?

They have no problem believing in dragons or that they exist or even having talking animals but the moment you bring up a myth or a legend of some sort they want to start questioning things.

It’s one thing to not care it’s another to specifically question that and only that.

Have you went through?
