The Chinese government still intended for people to live in the ghost cities despite the fact that they didn’t really think the whole thing through at all. And it isn’t just high rises that are the problem: https://thediplomat.com/2012/02/chinas-dangerous-tofu-projects/

The pregnancy test is to get the idea of pregnancy in their heads, and that's generally a happy thing, right? And then you subvert the gently caress out of that with the next two items.

Don’t tell me you’ve never bought something you might not need with the understanding that you don’t want to go to the store twice and you can save it or return it if you don’t need it.

Can you... buy wire coat hangers at a regular store? I've only seen them come with dry cleaning.

Proteus Jones posted:Nope I grew up with "burn your leaves except Sundays" In the DC suburbs Arlington county does the vacuum truck twice and sometimes three times a fall in each neighborhood. You just rake or blow your leaves into the street and the truck comes around and sucks it all up; the county then provides free mulch to residents. They provide paper bags for the backyard so you don't have to blow all that so far. Fairfax county just sends yard waste trucks every week for the yard-waste-specific bin and any bags you pile up at the curb. I was completely shocked as a kid when I visited family in southern Missouri and everyone was just burning it all.

the winning move for leaves is to get one of those leaf blowers that can also reverse into suction and then mulches the leaves up and shoots them into a bag. from there they go into the burn barrel or into the chicken run.

My neighbor is a brain genius and doesn't even wait for the grass pile to dry out before he starts burning it with gasoline, and the "pit" is just a flat circle of dead ground Throughout the summer I drive home expecting the neighborhood to be on fire

No, no, he's clearly talking about the gang box, receptacles, and plate that are in the Home Depot bag that's been hanging on the door to my garage for 4 months now. Despite my having gone to HD probably 3 times since then.

We used to call it the condom game, because one of the items had to be a pack of them. I think the weirdest I've done is condoms, socks, and a whole pineapple.

To be fair though, pissing with some nice warmth radiating directly on my exposed junk sounds like a little slice of heaven. Pretty much the exact opposite of pissing on the ski slopes and having to whip it out of its nice, warm hiding spot into the windy, sub-zero air with a cold, wet glove.

At work we've got a space heater in the shop and in winter its soooooo nice to turn it on an close the door for about 10 minutes before I go in for my morning dump.

One of the places I worked at had a space heater that was basically a propane flame inside of a steel cowling with a fan blowing air through it. Someone sat a skip in front of it and started chucking old paint cans in there. I didn't see this myself. All I saw was the foreman in the forklift truck taking a skipload of fire out of the main doors, to leave it in the yard to burn itself out.
