I’d assume the taste of soap is usually a lot stronger.
Yeah well, I’m only eating people that died by suicide, then.
I have a hard time believing that the foot was entirely unaffected by the injury … it’s whatever if it’s your own limb, but I wouldn’t eat someone else’s limb that was amputated due to injury.
How do you guarantee that? If it’s just a matter of asking consent, that’s probably illegal. If the person died from other causes (illness, accidents, old age etc.), I’d question whether it’s safe (illness) or palatable (old age) to eat that meat.
Same is true for unseasoned grains, potatos and many vegetables.
First we’d need to define “internet” for this purpose. Does classic mail qualify? It certainly can carry more data than pidgeons, and if you can still have computers you might get relatively close to the 90s internet by sending data by mail (especially when you’re communicating with people within a day’s travel, rather than on the other side of the earth).
Other than that, you can do a lot with visual signals. In the Discworld novels, they developed a kind of optical telegraph network with a technique that is somewhat similar to ship flag communication, and optical telegraphy exists/existed in the real world, too, though it never got much traction. If you have computers, you might be able to get pretty alright data rates with something like that.
I’d get pain in my feet (flatfoot) and my lower back about one hour in.
AFAIK, standing all day isn’t any healthier than sitting all day. No idea about the last panel tho …
Or just don’t reach for the neck when you’re that much shorter.
What didn’t you like about the “make lots of money” advice? It doesn’t sound like you or your brother actually disagreed with it. Your post reads a lot more like your father said “go to college to make money”, but that’s not what you say he said.
Also possibly low standards, though that’s probably not something that you want to hear from your partner …
At least some of them probably genuinely believe that, and AFAIK it is more or less true for filterless butts. Maybe we should replace some of the gore pics we have on cigarette packets with information about environmental effects …
Where I live public ashtrays are very common in public places. The littering is not as bad as it could be (used to be worse before public ashtrays were common), but lots of people still litter in those areas.
Maybe it’s because smokers already have to make the decision to blow toxic smoke around where other people (most of them non-smokers nowadays) are likely to breathe it in - it’s pretty much an inherently anti-social activity nowadays, so the step to littering your smoking trash isn’t that big. Maybe related to broken window theory?
I’d be surprised if using these kinds of point-and-click GUIs was still common in 2244 years, as opposed to some kind of language- or thought processing. Then again, people are still writing with pen and paper sometimes, despite all the digital advances.
Roommates pay rent and buy their own food.
AFAIK complete amnesia is rarely permanent, so it would probably fix itself most of the time if there’s no serious compounding issues.
Either way, the likelyhood of two missing people in the same general area looking so similar that their family can’t tell them apart visually seems extremely low.
Damn, those are long hours. How many free days do you have in a week?
