Lol wait til you're peeing five times a night.

I bought a roadster ... which turned out to be probably the best financial decision of my life. $11K (used, obviously) and I drove it for nine years and then resold it for $5K. The thing about roadsters is that they're thoroughly impractical, so dudes buy them and then keep them in a garage for a decade or two and then sell them for next to nothing. I have no friends so I don't even need the one passenger seat let alone a back seat.

If your pedals have power meters, you've gone too far.

Biking fills a similar crisis role, as long as you paid $15K for the bike. Bonus points for removing three of the six chainring screws when you're 50 pounds overweight.

Where is the one for dating someone 15-20 years younger than you?

That's what the driver-side door is for.

No. 4 is proof that you really are a disc golfer.

Cookie Monster gave me an eating disorder.

Myself and everybody I knew thought Boy George was a woman.

Downvoted for complaining about complaining about downvotes.

I majored in Anthropology in college. I remember watching a documentary about Napoleon Chagnon's ethnographic study of the Yanomami (a hunting-gathering people in the Amazon) and being surprised about the notice at the beginning stating that his research had been funded by the Atomic Energy Commission. Turns out that many ethnographies from the '50s and '60s were funded by the AEC because they just wanted baseline physiological data on peoples who had not yet been exposed to large amounts of radiation and environmental nuclear byproducts. The actual study of their cultures was a byproduct.

I feel that these ethnographies are an absolutely precious resource as they reveal so much about how our ancestors lived a lifestyle that has completely vanished now, but it's still kind of depressing to think about where they came from.

I spent a lot of time there the first couple of years, mostly answering questions. I was in the top 20 or so of users for a while - I remember when Jon Skeet was right below me in the rankings and I thought "huh, I'll show this guy". I did not in fact show that guy. I'm still in the top .1% but I haven't done anything there in almost a decade.
