I’m not walking around measuring people… ever since the restraining order, but just looking around it seems like guys here in the US are around 5’10" or 5’11" on average. I’m 6’2" and don’t really feel tall.

Someone else guessed maybe it’s because of the higher proportion of people from other regions where average height in their place of birth (or parents’ or grandparents’ place of birth) is shorter. Makes sense to me that our immigrants and their offspring could be bringing down average height.

I only use Lemmy unless Internet search results bring me to a reddit post for an answer to a question. I don’t comment on reddit anymore or even browse it.

Nah. Nothing wrong with it, but I either don’t have time for roast or have better things (to my taste) to cook with that time.

W A D N N R S ?

Are you in the US? I just tried that for my job and found exactly as many options as expected. I’ll give you 0 guesses how many it was.

Uni Uni likes to use “act of God” as the reason for failed delivery LOL

Set boundaries and enforce them.

I’m in my 40s and still hit my pen almost every time I pee in a store or restaurant. Nobody seems to notice and they certainly don’t care. Just be careful around smoke detectors. I set one off in my house once just hitting the pen right under it.

Used to love getting the corner of the brick and seeing it’s compressed shape LOL.

Maybe if Apple sued the pants off all their biggest fans…

Some people have crazy testosterone levels for medical reasons. StyroPyro did a YouTube video a few months back about his testosterone levels.

Hope he’s doing alright. He didn’t know why they were elevated at the time.

The right will break shit to obstruct because breaking shit is also a goal of theirs. The left doesn’t have the same win-win obstruction scenario.

Barry Goldwater, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, Newt Gingerich, Mitch McConnell, and now Trump (and arguably many others along the way) have been choosing self over country and intentionally breaking safeguards for longer than most of us on Lemmy have been alive. It’s indirect violence. But it’s violence regardless. And they’ve gotten away with it so far.

Same. Also. Now I’m hungry.

We have many options for people who just want to drink a bunch of cheap beer. Bud Light, Miller Light, Coors Light, Natural Light, Milwaukee’s Best Light, the list goes on. Most agree the stuff you can buy in a 24 pack at Walmart isn’t good quality beer.

But places like Dogfish Head, Ardent, Foothills, Bell’s, Cigar City, Oskar Blues, Three Notched, Flying Dog, Elysian, Anchor, Lagunitas and many others produce some great beers.

My cousin said the exact same thing.

They don’t know shit, but they still vote with such confidence. It’s maddening.

A little bit yeah. Really just all food is a lot more expensive.

I used to not have to check my bank account. Now my savings account is slowly shrinking. And it’s almost entirely because of the cost of food.

Inflation sent me from adding to savings each month to pulling from it instead. Just hope my wife or I get a decent promotion before the savings run out I guess.

I saw something like 15 or 20 years ago saying the average “adult” (not in a sexual way) show is designed for 14 year old viewers. Our media has made so much more sense to me since then.

Or having both hands for the phone, or not needing to blind yourself with a light in the middle of the night. So many reasons.

This week I actually got to use some old cranks I had saved from a bike I replaced.

Ok I’m not actually going to ride those cranks. I just needed to fit them on the bike to confirm the other cranks were bent and not the bike frame itself.

Now I’m going to buy new replacement cranks and keep the old ones AND the bent ones for some reason…
