Is that not the same logically in every language?

Genuine question, did you mean that to be opposite? That is, it looks like a prowler?

I'm looking at photos of the aeromax compared to the PT cruiser and the prowler. It doesn't look anything like a PT cruiser to me, whereas it does have the same body style as a prowler. That being a long front/hood and the cabin towards the rear.

Unless there are some design features not noticing.

Not being in California is not a reason you wouldn't know it.

If you ever looked up the history of beer in the US or US beer styles you would know it. All the people in the craft beer industry certainly do. Maybe the craft beer drinkers in parts of the country don't know it but Steam/California Common is one of the few original US beer styles. And Anchor was one of the first in the modern craft beer revolution.

No, he was obviously not a "shill". I'm not sure where you are getting that from. He is clearly a troubled young man.

I'm not sure what "Eglin AFB shill" means.

No. Perhaps the ability to follow orders and open to killing enemies if necessary.

Not people that talk about, or implying, massacre of civilans and their own countrymen.

Anyway this guy is an airman in IT, not a soldier. Not really someone that would necessarily need an aggressive tendencies anyway.

Ah that's not true about beer in the US at all. I also don't particularly like IPAs and have no problem at the local breweries.

I'll grant that there was a time when a lot of places were IPA heavy but they basically always had a few other styles.

Now every brewery around me is really varied. They might have a couple types of IPAs but all have another 6 or 10 + styles. A sour or two, such as a Belgian or American type. Often a berlinerweisse. Some brown/stout/porter types. Not just oatmeal stout. And even different lager types besides "lager". I see Helles and bock, Vienna, pilsner, everywhere. A rauchbier at one place.

I've never really had to look at the IPAs in years.

To sun it up from the NYTimes article posted below, Oklahoma does in fact have legal medical marijuana. In addition it apparently has pretty lax regulations compared to other states on growing. Basically little limit on how many farms are allowed, how much they can grow, etc. And apparently pretty low startup costs (I assume license fees and all that are low).

No, certainly not. Gambling is banned on US aircraft.

They are talking about RyanAir, which is an Irish carrier that flys all over Europe and offers scratch card gambling. Swissair also offered gambling via video screens for a period of time.

I remember reading Canticle and thinking, "this feels just like Fallout" at various parts.

One question, is City of Lost Children the French movie by Jeunet or something else?

Tramadol is the opiate itself, it does not have paracetamol. There are other brand pills that contain both.

Paracetamol does not contain an opiate. It is a different substance from opiates. It is, however, dangerous to the liver in large amounts.

That's not true. Sure there are a lot of men that want a traditional wife to take care of the house, etc. But I'm not sure they are the majority of men in 2022. Lots of men out there certainly don't want or care if their wife is a homemaker. I, personally, and many people I know aren't particularly interested in that sort of wife and would prefer a "partner" that that has her own professional and personal life and goals equal to us.

Drugs lead to delinquency (crime) and madness. Depending on your view that is what some might say drugs do.

Since the OP said they had to block chess because of phone addiction, the joke is just replacing drug addiction with chess. Chess (drugs addiction) leads to delinquency and madness.

Seafood is a main source of glucosamine so shouldn't it be "as long as you DO eat seafood your risk is low"?

I guess saying cathedral is more impressive than saying a guy built a church, albeit big or fancy.

Same with the also mentioned Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. I've often seen it referred to as a cathedral but it is just a large church. The actual cathedral in Barcelona is elsewhere. Although now it is deemed a basilica, which I understand is generally just a very special and honored church.
