The man with pudding for brains is calling someone else low-IQ?

We need to rename Dunning-Kruger to just Trump.

Losing arabs would be a feature, not a bug to that ghoul.

4D Chutes and Ladders

I don’t like that I have heard a non zero number of people on the Christian extreme that are cheering this on because they think that is the start of Armageddon and Jesus is coming.

Playing out that scenario for a minute. They’ll be really fucking shocked when the Jesus that shows up is a brown hippie and not a white Republican in a suit and that by their rules, they’re all going to the lake of fire, not the rest of us.

Even the thing that made him rich started as a way for him and people he let in to perv on women.

It also says to drink tea, tea is not addictive.

Some tea contains caffeine, caffeine is addictive, so some teas are addictive.

Starbucks can eat a giant bag of dicks.

But you can buy “just coffee” there and even though it tastes like it was filtered through my ass crack, it’s no different than other coffee.

You didn’t say where you’re from, but I know in some countries and cultures, you have deep rooted superstitions about attracting bad luck to yourself.

On both sides, my grandparents would put money in a wallet given as a gift. You were never allowed to keep a door open in case a robin flew in. Never put new shows on the table. If you go on a trip. never go back for something you forgot. Leave through a different door than you entered the house.

These were all things they thought bring bad luck. It’s possible your parents have some cultural superstition they never passed on. My grandmother would throw salt over her left shoulder until the day she died, even though she said it was a dumb superstition. My great grandmother told me fairies like to play “pranks” based on irony. I could see the joke you made being taken the same way by my great grandmother.

What a piece of shit.

Fucking arrogance to imply that the US won either of those wars. The alliances won, not a single country.

But it you want to rally push for an answer, in WWI, the UK nearly bankrupted themselves paying for the war. France and the UK fielded much larger armies than the US by double. And Canada, one of the smaller players in the war, during the hundred day offensive, was responsible for killing a quarter of the German soldiers, while only making up 3% of the fighting force.

In WWII, the Soviets killed more Germans than everyone else put together by 4 times. Americans also conveniently forget that the rest of us were fighting 3 years before they joined. I’m not diminishing the US and their role, but to imply the US won, like they did it alone is just fucking insulting.

As a note, on D-Day, Canadians troops pushed further and deeper into France than either the US or UK on the initial landing. I could also point out that had Canadians not won the Battle of the Scheldt, the war could have gone a very different way. Antwerp was essential to get supplies to the fighting forces. I don’t care how important the US thinks they were, they wouldn’t have done much winning without food, bullets or bandages.

It didn’t happen to me, my car doesn’t have TPMS sensors, but a buddy of mine had the cap on his valve stem corrode. The corrosion borked the entire valve stem, and he didn’t find out until he went to get his summer tires put on. It didn’t leak, but the place charged him some $ because it was a pain to remove and replace.

I’m also a huge fan of, “I don’t understand enough to refute you, so you must be arguing in bad faith.”

Much less when you live in a cold climate, or they get corroded from road salt.

Another factually incorrect statement.

I have a 2019, which I stated multiple times.

Not all cars come with them. Maybe it’s law where you live, but not where I live.

If you don’t think calling me stupid is an insult then I have “assessed your intellectual capabilities” and decided you’re actually a moron.

The I’m rubber and you’re glue argument. Good job. You really showed me. Do you need a pat on the head?

I didn’t say it was free. I said it was included and not a choice you have to make. Someone who’s not a moron would have understood that.

It wasn’t included in my car. It was not even offered on my car. The fact that you are 100% convinced of something that is just not true and keep arguing that it is, is what makes me think you’re not very smart.

LOL what? Who told you that!?

Fuck me. You really are dense. You know the batteries don’t last forever.

It monitors your tire pressure. That’s important for safety, as I’ve outlined several times now.

Just because you say something more than once, doesn’t make you right. You asserted something, I provided statistical evidence from GIDAS proving you wrong, and you just “nuh-uhed” and repeated the same point. It’s effect on safety is statistically insignificant.

Or both

They didn’t come with my car. My car does not have a TPMS sensor. Your “every car comes with them” statement is blatantly false.

And, I am not insulting you, if anything I am sad for you. I made what I believe is an honest assessment of your intellectual capabilities based on your lack of understanding with how parts inside an automobile are priced and the nonsensical responses you have given to cogent points.

It doesn’t matter if it’s mandated for inclusion where you live, that doesn’t mean it’s free. You are paying for it. In fact, you are paying for sensors to be replaced multiple times over the life of the vehicle, another thing which most people won’t do. So, every 3 to 8 years (depending on various factors), you have to replace the TPMS sensors, pay another $300 to $500 for something which does sweet fuck all for your safety.

GIDAS data

https://www.ircobi.org/wordpress/downloads/irc0111/2009/Session2/2_3.pdf

It concludes that even if you increased grip, which includes tire pressure variance, by 15%, it would only represent a reduction of 2% of road related fatalities, which is actually within the margin of error.

While 2% sounds like a lot, GIDAS also shows that tire failures account for less than 1% of road accidents causing death.

So you’re spending $300 to $500 on a new car for a TPMS which reduces the probability of accidental death by 0.02%.

And fun fact, most tire related accidents are actually from tread depth, not low pressure, and TPMS will do fuck all to tell you your tread depth is low.
