That's 2-3x longer than cows raised for meat from what I understand. That may sound inhumane either way depending on your perspective, but doesn't mean that they're treated poorly while alive.

Not drinking alcohol doesn't necessarily mean someone refrains from using other substances.

Me too! That'd be amazing! Forget a root canal. Let's yank it and start over.

Nah. This whole discussion is pointless. I don't need to argue with you about your imagination.

They're relating what it feels like to be a college aged person during that time period. There are many parallels.

You're right, that comparison is incongruent. And looking at it again, I can understand the dad's reaction. It just struck me as funny that he said "almost hit" and then that the kid was two rooms away.

I see your point, it is fucked and if I were him, I'd probably be just as outraged about the risk to my child.

Respectfully, I don't think that's how I would react emotionally/psychologically. I'm sure I'm not alone here. I'm a lucky guy, but what's the chance of space debris hitting my house twice at different times?

"It almost hit my son. He was two rooms over and heard it all,"

I mean, relative to coming from space I guess it almost hit his son. How does he feel about every car he drives past on a two lane road? "Oh shoot! Almost collided with that one too!"

You're describing a fixed menu meal. That's completely different from preparing meals to order.

Not in the back there isn't

Some places are. I looked around until I found a community care clinic for people who don't have insurance. It's free. The university near me also offers free/low cost therapy. Years ago before we were married, my wife and I found couples counseling from an intern who was gaining experience at no cost to us.

I know everyone doesn't have the same resources, but just wanted to point out that if someone gives up because they assume it's expensive, they may not find the affordable options available to them.
