Ooh, yeah this is also a good one.

Any politician that speaks in favor of going to war is given front-line duty regardless of how they vote.

Again, if you're going to demand it, you're going to DO it. That means people who use their influence to sway others are also going to do it, even if they're cowards behind a voting booth.

Planes over Toblerone?

Serious answer: not sure but I'd guess "bumps ahead" or something like that.

Every time. They're well aware of my stance on war.

To go to war, every adult must vote yes or no. The yes vote is immediately signed up for military service, no exceptions given outside of life-threatening conditions. Everyone can do something even if it's just logistics.

No votes go about their business as usual.

And of course, there will be people who for one reason or another, legitimate or not, can't leave the general areas they live in. They can be national guard and show up to work the fields every day, ensuring wartime food supplies.

It may sound harsh, but unless you're willing to get down in the shit yourself, you have no business demanding someone else do it for you.

Can't wait for my in-laws to go on about how we NEED to invade them "for national security"

I use my cell data in my bedroom because it's more stable than my router connection. I wish I had control of the router, but it's not my house. I'd just move the router to a more centralized location instead of the farthest corner.

Back before I moved, I kept the router at one of the reduced power modes it had built in(can't remember the exact settings) since the room it sat in was the best room for signal distribution, you still got full signal anywhere you went.

I need a cut of the movie that inserts a saber activation sound and flash, followed by the credits rolling.

Not great.

Last night my house flooded and I'm still cleaning up water and nasty shit. Everything smells like piss.

It triggered a fight over the fact that I still don't have a full time job despite months of looking, and we are stuck in this place until I find something better than 3rd party labor.

My vehicle is leaking gasoline while running and the shocks are fucked but I can't afford to fix it. My wife's vehicle needs transmission work.

Also... gestures wildly around the US

Depression is a bitch and I don't have insurance to go to a therapist or get my broken tooth fixed.

So yeah. Not great.

That's why I specified or wingtip vortex.

In some situations you can see a trail behind a wingtip that can persist. although doesn't leave the huge vapor cloud that lingers for hours, I have heard plenty of ~~people~~ conspiracy nuts refer to them as "Chem trails" right along with the actual contrail. Living near an airport, you get all kinds of crazy.

If the state decides to ignore any kind of court telling them otherwise, then I would imagine Florida would no longer have flyovers from any airline, and any aircraft capable of producing a contrail or wingtip vortex would no longer operate in the state.

Goodbye florida airports, I guess.

I grew up around where he was born.

I may not be related by blood but it certainly rubbed off on me.

I feel the need for some good old fashioned southern BBQ.
