Well played, sir, or madam, as the case may be. Very well played.

But you could swap the sexes or have them both be men and it would still work, so I’m not sure that it really is sexist.
But who is the author of said thoughts? From whence do they arise? If you look carefully you’ll find that there is no author and that the self is an illusion that arises from the nature of consciousness. This is the essential insight of Buddhism and other contemplative traditions.
That’s not true at all. The ignorance in this thread is absolutely astonishing. It’s like you went to the US once, spent a week in Florida and now somehow think you’re an expert in American homebuilding techniques and practices. WTF?
As someone with nearly 30 years experience in various types of construction, I can say for a fact that this is objectively incorrect. There’s a trope about any kind of social media content that touches on a subject about which one has real expertise, don’t remember exactly how it goes, but anyhow, let’s just say that the ignorance in this thread is absolutely astonishing.
Go down to your local big box hardware store and try to find a single-pane window, for example. You can’t because nobody makes them. If you want a single-pane window you have to buy a sheet of glass and know how to install and glaze it yourself.
You need to go through a window company and have them custom-made. They’ll come over to your house and take measurements then build them at their factory and then install them. It will take a few weeks and will be expensive, but for my money it’s worth it.
Where I live Andersen is probably the best as they come with a forever warranty on everything including the glass itself, but they may or may not be in your area. There are plenty of other reputable companies as well. Again, this is not a cheap option.
Anyone who has worked in high-end construction can tell you that they’re very common in rich people’s houses. The reason you don’t see them more often is that most people don’t want to pay for them. Americans tend to value the size of their houses more than anything else, and since McMansion developers know this, windows are one very easy way to cut costs.
They’re also a lot more common in older homes (like mine) because if you’re going to replace all your windows (which you should do for energy reasons), you might as well get the good ones.
Lol! Imagine thinking this is true.
They aren’t that difficult to repair if you have basic carpentry skills. All you have to do is take the sash out and open the side of the frame and you’ll have access to the weight and pulley. They’re designed to be pretty easy to do. YouTube probably has hundreds of videos on it. You just want to be careful about lead paint if it’s an old house and you’re producing dust or disturbing old paint.
They open from the top as well.
Yeah, my Nancy Reagan does similar shit on the regular.
She’s nearly lived up to her namesake in the sense that she doesn’t really like anyone and is pretty strong on the “just say no” aspect of things.
I love her anyway in spite of her being a cold hearted bitch. In spite of all her great upbringing, she’s never met anyone she wasn’t prepared to scratch or swipe at, drawing random blood.
NATO needs a similar mechanism as well, but for similar reasons doesn’t have one either.
The last week or so it’s been Too Much Too Young by The Specials. It was on the radio, once, last week and for no good reason I’ve been stuck with it since. Thanks brain.
There’s no such thing as an adolescent silverback. A silverback is a fully mature dominant male. They don’t gain the silver coloration until they are mature, so the entire premise is a contradiction in terms.
It’s older than that.
Several things can be true at once. We don’t have to be all-in on one side or the other of the Snowden affair. I’ve never understood why people seem so eager to pick a team on this issue.
WTF are you talking about? I see zero evidence that this is what OP is doing. It can’t be the case that every time someone asks a question that you don’t like, they must be doing so in bad faith. That’s a fallacy.
Oh, look at John fucking Von Neumann over here!
Either a square knot or a “granny” knot will work. A lot of people don’t know the difference, but it’s actually a pretty important distinction in different types of rigging because a square knot is so much stronger and more secure.
Can you please explain to me exactly why and how it was objectively obvious that OP’s comment was meant to be taken as some kind of joke or satire?
Because if you can’t, I have to think that you are little more than an arbitrarily condescending piece of shit.
