It could also be a hobby business to keep someone's spouse/family busy and out of the house.

Well then you'll see those savings more often!

"Don't bully me, I might vote against my own interests on purpose."

Ah yes, Lemmy the monolith. Lemmy the single person with a single thought. Nevermind that there are many Lemmy instances with very different user bases.

I don't think chickens are usually referred to as "dog-sized" even if it's occasionally true.

Historical context isn't commonly taught alongside the bible, it makes it very hard to blindly apply ancient moral lessons to modern society. My favorite example is the story of Onan, often preached as anti-masturbation. Within the legal setting of the time it's actually about greed: Onan would inherit his brother's property since he had no heir. Commanded to produce a son with his brother's widow, he opted to "spill his seed on the ground" rather than forfeit the inheritance.

But preaching against greed is often unpopular, especially with the Prosperity Gospel, and it was a "close enough" cherry to pick for the Puritan movement.

All that to say: yes, most people have no idea about the background behind anything in the bible.

I have big hands and soft keys, accidental presses happen a lot. Glad my keyboard has a toggle for it.

They lock it up because it's frequently stolen. (Because of its use in graffiti, but still.)

Luxury sedans have done a damn good job at shutting out road noise for a long time now, but there are obvious (and less obvious) costs associated with that.

Sorry I'll be explicit: I'm making fun of how pretentious you sound and can't take anything you say here seriously. I actually agree that a monster sound system can greatly enhance a movie or game experience, but the difference depends on the specific media. I saw Fury Road three times in the theater because I knew my home system would never match the experience. Something like Star Trek TNG or My Cousin Vinny or, as the topic of this post, Kirby's Air Ride hinges far less on the audio quality to deliver the intended content. Gatekeeping enjoyment behind speakers makes you a colossal ass.

The unintended consequence is genocide. When people need permission to reproduce that introduces a convenient method to keep certain people from having kids.

MasterHero SoccerGuy is too pure for downvotes.
