If you keep using what you have then you don't go out and buy new and so the manufacturer simply pulls the rug out from under you to FORCE YOU to do so.Over and over and over and over and over again.Now sometimes it's fine and dandy because the new is so much better than the old. I get that.Sometimes it sucks bigly. Remember NEW COKE?The new and shiny attract those who must be at the front of every new thing. It's a status symbol you see. Also the more expensive it is the better because you know they got the big bucks and can afford it. Color me unimpressed. It is the way of the world though. There are cell phones you can pay a bazillion bucks for and some that cost way less. less

Others much smarter than me FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY.I was criticized for dragging my feet and refusing to find joy in the new and improved. As if it were a DEFECT in my intellect. Sheesh. Well folks it ain't. When something works perfectly for you why would you want to exchange it for something that doesn't? Who is that stupid?So what I/we faced with XL being forced to move to 7 we are now facing with 7 being forced to move to 10. I asked for anyone who LOVES 10 to count the ways and the only response I received was from a very smart pal who feels exactly as I do....book page sentence word.//the same! Prefers XL..had to settle for 7...tried out and dislikes 10 BIGLY! So there! Put that in your pipe and smoke it! less

I do not know much about solar energy at all, so learning this prompts me to ask this:What are some common misconceptions about solar energy?~

ANIMATE/INANIMATE/ABSTRACT/THEORETICAL?That covers everything everywhere which may still hide insult somewhere in there but less defined so is that okay?The more abstruse diaphanous the less likely an insult can be hiding.

What's not to love right? What's not to love. He IS them and they IS he.But any men whom he sexually abused who were not themselves sexual abusers might look at him with disfavor. Could there be any who still would support him even though even so no matter what he did to them that was disgusting? The reason for that would be....?

I'd like to rename Spunky to Sparkly but of course it would have to be with her permission. What do you think? Can we be trusted to do that? Set aside differences and just go for fun without being insulting or hurtful or PARTISAN? I'm listening.

I'm interested because I just got nailed for using "Republican Answermugger". A sin of great proportion or paddidly? I don't know. That's why I ask. I mean the person SAID it so where's the BAD in quoting it and asking if others agree with it? I don't get it.

No matter how delusional it is.That's what motormouth and his merry men/women do daily. They never will dare to leave their world of delusion.If you ever saw the movie Shangri La remember what happened to the beautiful young girl who left there? That is what will happen to them too should they ever step foot outside their safe zone. So they don't.That's how it's done.They have their very own zone of delusion via FAUX NEWS. What more do they need to feel triumphant and victorious every minute of every day. less

Had problems with alsohol and drugs and finally ended his life.Geniuses are not all alike. Some function at very high levels and live comparatively "normal" lives. Others are not so fortunate. I'm not sure why since I'm not among them but I suspect it gets very wearisome engaging with those who your intellectual inferiors who think they know everything when they know nothing. I don't know but unless they can find others on their level to interact with it would be a very lonely life.Genius ain't always what you'd think it is. Sometimes they have to pay a price for it. No one asks to be one you know. They are born not made and so they do the best they can and sometimes for them it becomes too hard a task and meaningless. SIGH. less

Domestic banks found him to be a bad risk because he'd stiff those he owed. Deadbeat Cheapskates are known for that.He and his daddy dearest were sued for discrimination in housing by refusing to rent/sell to African Americans. He lost.He was ridiculed derided and used as a punch line for many years by those who knew him. Tried so hard to be accepted by the elites but didn't/doesn't have the right stuff to qualify. He will always be a third-rate rejectHe sued and was sued a bazillion times and was involved in scandals. Notoriously full of himself he kept promoting himself even when folks knew he was using a phony name to plant stories about himselfThis is a success? In what universe? Sheesh. less

A less stupid person would remain silent and quiet and not give the opposition ammunition with which to attack him.Silence would have protected him from a multiplicity of misfortunes including investigation for conspiracy collusion treason. Silence and quiet and no backdoor conniving and no front and center bragging and demanding and insisting and threatening and intimidating and strongarming and extorting and quid pro quoing.All he had to do was shut up. But he cannot do that and so where he is today is ENTIRELY his own doing. Does he stop? No he keeps talking and making things worse for himself every day. Now that is not a thing an INTELLIGENT person would do. It is a thing a very stupid person does. Like trying to mug someone in front of the police station or leaving your wallet behind a place you robbed or sticking up an undercover cop. There are many stupid dumbs out and about and motormouth is among them. In my opinion. I have ... less
