The suffering is the point. It’s got nothing to do with morals or human rights or the death penalty or abortion or “Christian values”. It’s all about making “those people” suffer.

Haha, LOL, I totally get it, but can someone explain it to my friend? He doesn’t get it.

So you’d normally say “that’s too much!” in which case the subject “that” is plural and countable so therefore “much” would be correct.

Otherwise you should say “you have given me too many refried beans!” since the beans are volumetric and not countable entities.

It’s been a while since I’ve done long exposure photography and composites, but my recollection is that excessive noise is a symptom of long exposure and high ISO, and stacking multiple shorter exposures into a composite will significantly reduce the noise of the final photo.

I mean, I’m a guy, I generally just leave the seat down 99% of the time and pee without lifting it. If there’s any drips or splashes I’ll just wipe it up. But every time I go in to poo or pee sitting down at night I always just check to make sure the toilet is how I want it. There’s no reason not to just give it a quick check.

Are these women just… How to say this delicately… Dumb? Like you walk into the bathroom facing the toilet. You can’t help but see it. Are you telling me they drop their pants and just do a trust fall onto the rim? I’m guessing no. I think it’s a meme and women just don’t want to have to put the lid up before going.

Same in VA, but if you buy a 6 pack to go, you cannot crack one open if you decide to stay, it may only be consumed off-site. Some won’t even give you the beer until you have already closed your tab and are on the way out.
