The OG most wanted is hands down my favorite of all time.

I dropped $40 just to play on my Xbox around 10 years ago.

I'd buy it again if I didn't already have it installed.

or grater

It still fits.

Everyone else gets the grater or meat grinder.

I need to get a couple more external drives and make at least one Faraday cage to keep one in.

All my installers are on a 1tb hdd that sits in my dresser. Made it a lot easier to put my games on my new laptop since they were installed before I even got to hooking it up to the internet.

Well my days of not taking lemmy comments seriously are certainly coming to a middle

As soon as I read the title I thought "that sounds like something a shady politician would make a talking point in preparation to try and get rid of FOIA so they can do even more shady shit..."

So wood that naturally expands and contracts, creating squeaky floors. You don't even have to step on it if the temperature or humidity changes. My last house had gaps in the crawl space, so lots of shifting occurred.

Mice in the walls. It's always either mice or slightly moving plumbing pipes. I hate living near agricultural fields because mice love to try and move in every autumn.

Footsteps I'll chalk up to people hearing things. I don't know how many times I've thought I've heard footsteps but the moment I catch it, it disappears.

Low-reservoir flushing happened all the time with my last toilet. I know it had a leak but it was slow enough that I didn't much care until it started flushing once a week.

I'm not scared of my attic, I just don't like being up there because it's always hot, it smells weird, and there's too many exposed nails at face level. I imagine most people are only mildly "scared" of their basements or attics because they don't go in them very much, and fear of the unknown/unfamiliar is very real.

..... Maybe I am haunted...

In my experience, Christians view their faith as a tool they can use by twisting it into a cudgel and beating anyone who disagrees into submission.

Whether they're consciously willing to vocalize that on the other hand...

I'd like to have one, actually. There's a few with a sloped front that allows for way better visibility that get great gas mileage.

Everything is expensive as shit though...

I'd love to get an Electric van. I don't need the huge amounts of height some have, it seems trucks get wider and vans get taller. the enclosed cargo space is great for peace of mind, though.

In a perfect world I would get a van with a small frame and small forward silhouette, with no hood or sloped hood, that sits no more than 8ft off the ground. Having a higher suspension, or the ability to raise the suspension for better off-road clearance is nice for some jobs, but not strictly necessary.

how much he feels like placating my catholic mom lol

Please tell me she has, at least once, made a reference to "your people killing my savior"

I know an ethnically jewish/religious catholic couple that do this every time they get into an argument and realize it's stupid to argue about, one of them will go "WELL YOU KILLED MY GOD!" and that's basically the end of the argument because they're too busy giggling.

Also how many are repeat callers.

"Hey Bert, Old Man Jenkins called in another Santa Clause, do you have eyes on a plane around the airport?"

"Sure do, Tina. Small single engine is making it's approach now."

"okay thanks. I'll give you another ring when he calls in for the 243rd time this year..."

Back when I was a teenager in church, some of the local cops would be talking shit about the "crazies" they would arrest, and apparently one guy would call in about UFOs every time the nearest air force base used the training airspace that was overhead. Multiple times a week, and I guess never listened that it wasn't aliens.

I'm a left American who loves my guns and just dares a fascist fuck head to try and take them.

FUCK NO would I want drones circling my town. I don't give a fuck it I have enough shotguns and bird shot to take down a small army of drones myself, it's fucking terrifying.

Basically, not the best place for a joke.
