My tiny contribution here is to look things aimed at commercial use, not consumer grade. For example, next time you need to buy a can opener, buy it from a restaurant supply shop instead of Amazon or Walmart.

I was on a Ford reddit forum. OP was pissed that their timing belt (chain?) broke, and was convinced that the repair shop she had previously went to had sabotaged her motor. I commented that these things do in fact break, and that the shop might not have been the culprit. Holy Downvotes Batman.
Kept the left over floor tiles. Nearly 30 years later I needed to replace one, had a box ready to go.
I was shocked they didn't call it a Thunderbird.
"Dogmeat has died".
Oh no he fucking has not. Reload.
Toe Jam & Earl. As a kid, it seemed just endlessly creative, you could just explore & explore forever. And the shit humor - I was the exact right age where every joke was a banger. Although the game itself would be badly dated today, I bet the music holds up well, albeit in short bursts. I still get snippets stuck in my head.
At first I assumed this was the Onion, as we all know damn well there's no high speed passenger trains in America.
Doing a quick Googling, I see Brightline's average speed is 69 MPH. /sigh. And folks wonder why we're so car-centric here.
Cool I guess.
Let me know when it goes on sale. Tired of being teased with cool electric vehicles we don't actually get.
Publix. They're in that middle bracket where I can still afford to shop there and yet they also seem to pay their employees a living wage.

10 hours, but I'm also a fatty.
Back in college, my buds & I did a road trip across America, so of course we stopped at the Grand Canyon. Breakfast was just a peanut butter & bread "sandwich", at which point we started hiking down the canyon. If you've ever been, they have numerous signs saying "Do not go past this point unless you are packing food". But hey, we're college kids, and we're not going to go THAT much farther... Long story short, that night the rangers had to chaperone us as we fucking crawled back out. One of us 'got' to ride in a helicopter to the medical building. For the other 3 of us who could still move, they manged to find a dusty MRE at the last way station. That was the absolute best chicken & pea soup in a tin foil bag I have ever eaten in my life.
