You only need a gun if you are afraid, or scared. The fact that so many Americans seem to own one (or more) just tells us that they are scared, that they have zero trust in their goverment's ability to protect them.

What about gun ownership as a hobby, fun, or for hunting purposes, not necessarily for protection?

If you actually bother to read the instructions, it says something like ensure the thing you want to clean stays wet for several minutes before you wipe it down and dry it off. Literally no one does this, and just wipes and immediately uses the surface. Well guess what... that didn't do shit.

1) How do I check.


Several different ways: a) When you apply for credit, the creditor will give you a copy of your FICO credit score from the bureau they got the copy from; b) Some credit card companies give you a FICO score for free; c) You can pay for it directly from the bureau. OR, you can get a FAKO score for free by signing up on creditkarma.com.

If I'm walking around with the intent of taking general pictures, I use my 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 all purpose lens. I don't bring anything else, unless I know I need an ultrawide lens; if so, I'll carry my 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 lens as well.

If I'm walking around with the intent of taking pictures of my beloved, I use my 50mm f/1.4 prime lens.

If I'm in a car, I take all my lenses (got two more in addition to the above).

Old Asian people is very broad. You're asking about cultural difference. We don't know much about them.

They're about 50-60 years old, immigrated to the US about two years ago from China (Hong Kong if I recall correctly).

We met up with an older Chinese couple for dinner at a sit down waiter-service restaurant, and they chewed with their mouths wide open, talked with their mouth full, spit bones/stuff out of their mouth openly onto the plate (instead of trying to hide it/doing it quietly), didn't bother to take their hats off while eating, and even blew their nose during dinner...

Is this bad table manners or is it just cultural?

To clarify they moved to the US a couple of years ago.

I didnt realize that Android didnt have a standard text messaging app


It does, but it's SMS. The normal text messaging standard.

iMessage supports Cyber Emojis and all sorts of useless bullshit, but most importantly, the bubbles are blue instead of green.

iMessages is great for sending pictures, videos, and long texts. In addition, it's multiplatform, that you can use your iPad to text someone's iPhone. All this, with seamless integration with SMS (e.g. if your data connection sucks, it'll drop it to SMS).

Only thing that sucks about iMessages is the switch to an Android phone without turning off iMessages accidentally... This fucks things up.

Why not just choose another nominee? Why is it so important for him to get chosen?

Because by bowing to public pressure to liberals Republicans piss off their base, it's important for him to get on the bench because as people have said, he's going to kill Roe vs Wade aka legal abortions, that we know for sure, what we don't know but people hope him being there will is him allowing a repeal of Brown vs the board of education making it a federal crime to have segregated based on race schools, Gay rights such as marriage and to protect Trump as well as any other republican official from Mueller's investigation and or other crimes. He's already shown he's heavily hard right, has absolutely no interest or even ability to rule according to the law from a neutral stance, something supreme court justices absolutely should be because of the power they hold and finally, he's a big fuck you to groups republicans hate, liberals, women, minorities, gays, anybody who isn't apart of their circles,ect and since his position is for life, effectively screwing over Democratic leadership for the next 30 years, it's not hard to see why both sides are desperate to stop or push this guy through.

I'm not sure if you're trolling or being serious... It seems ridiculous that someone will overturn Roe vs Wade, Brown vs Board, and gay marriage...

What I know:
*He's a Supreme Court Justice nominee.
*He's been accused of sexual assault over half a century ago (groping and exposing himself).

What I don't understand:
*Why does this matter so much?

About his assault:
This happened so many years ago; hell, it happened when he was in high school/college. People change over time. Clearly he changed for the better because no accuser came forth about him performing another sexual assault more recently.

About his nomination:
Why not just choose another nominee? Why is it so important for him to get chosen?

A legendary Italian playboy has died at age 63 while having sex with a 23-year-old tourist.

Maurizio Zanfanti, dubbed the Romeo of Rimini, claimed to have slept with more than 6,000 women after becoming famous as a nightclub promoter in the beach-side city in the 1970s.

He was entertaining a tourist from Romania in the back of a car Tuesday night when he suffered a fatal heart attack.

The shocked woman called paramedics, but Zanfanti could not be revived.

Local media said it was the way the man once called Italys most successful lover would have wanted to go.

Zanza died after doing what he did best loving women, Il Resto Del Carlino, a Bologna newspaper, reported.

The mayor of Rimini said Italy had lost a legend of the night.

He boasted that in a successful summer in his prime, he could sleep with around 200 women.

Zanfanti spent his winters in Scandinavia working for tourist agencies.

His exploits became so famous that some of his lovers erected a wax statue of him in a Swedish town.

Zanfanti also became the subject of media profiles and in 1986, Italian newspaper LEspresso named Zanfanti Italys most successful lover.

He claimed to have once seduced a French journalist who was interviewing him.

Two years ago, he was a guest of honor at a Rimini nightclub when a group of Swedish women who had visited in the 1980s flew in for a reunion.

In his final interview with German newspaper Bild in 2014, he announced his retirement and said: At 59, Im getting too old for it.
