I'm already hiding under the bed.

You probably don't understand most clever jokes. O'Rourke's would clearly be lost on you.

I'm so depressed.

McDonald's is awesome and yummy. Why all the hate?

I live somewhere with BYD vehicles everywhere. You aren't missing anything.

You right. You don't need statins. Nobody does. But look at the statistics. You might also drop dead tomorrow. It's hard to know. If you think eating and exercising would solve heart disease, you are mis-informed. It's the number one killer. If we all died at 30, the drugs would not need to exist. I'm sure you would like to live as long as you can. Taking statins is cheap and simple for most people.

I recommend the same. There are other interventions, but these two medications are straightforward to obtain with low or no side effects.

You can only do things to reduce your risk. And whatever intervention would be based on overall population statistics, since it's difficult to know your own personal risk. Heart disease kills marathon runners. You can't just "fix it". Someone who has naturally high cholesterol won't magically be okay by changing their lifestyle and diet.

"You have no conscious experience or memory of the moment when you go under and your consciousness is severed."

They started to lube me up for a colonoscopy before I was completely under. I 100% remember that and told them to give me a few more seconds.

You can collect a list of other peoples 'collections which you can pretend to be passionate about.

I tried to mail myself some personal items from Japan once. It was a pain in the ass.

I have a corporation in Japan, and I have a set of fancy old-school stamps.

I agree, and my handwriting also sucks. My brother could have been an architect; his handwriting is amazing without trying. Give me a keyboard and recess too.

My grandmother wrote me letters in cursive. They got more and more unreadable as she got older. I should have bought her a typewriter.

I got my arms broken to make them longer. This is not as common, but something I wanted to achieve. Now they are extra-long and look a bit funny, but I'm happy.

We should all try it. what's a few months of pain.

I lost my Amazon account and almost had a heart attack.

I have a 4,000 square foot house with two central air conditioners and a swimming pool. I don't think i've ever paid more than $350 a month.

The photos indicate that they are already pouring the foundations, so don't worry about these pesky details.

Throw it away, and don't collect free things in the future. Pay for things you want or need.

is that a real thing?

I have a CAC score of zero (no calcified plaque) and I take both a statin and ezetimibe to lower my LDL and ApoB. I disagree with your assessment that your CAC score along means that I statin wouldn't lower your risk.

The boss is always right. AI wrote this comment.

found the NK spy.

Buying is easy. Renting is hard. You can go buy ten houses on a tourist VISA. Just find a property agent.

Nope, it's not the same. Different vibe.

The construction in Japan also takes noise into account. My neighbor in a small Japan apartment had an incredibly loud home theater system, and I never heard his movies from my unit. I think the walls were concrete, and on both sides, there was drywall with spacers which provided a small air-gap. I only ever heard him when he was having sex with his girlfriend and both of our balcony doors were open.

why not?

this is because the cars are pieces of crap.

Godzilla did not represent America.

Louis Armstrong was sent to Ghana by the CIA.
