Try getting a house. I think unlimited data plans would be cheaper than that.

I am aware, a brand new house would be like 40k-60k?

You'd rather not be informed about incoming tornados?

Damn. That is cheap. Here, the average price of a home here is like around $300k (in CAD). Dunno about new homes.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

Reinforced concrete tends to cost more, but it keeps you warm better in the winter.

I found a thing of summer sausage in the back of my fridge, and I was really excited until I realized it had expired two months ago. Then I just got disappointed and disgusted.

Some segments of the service industry are in more need of lube than others.

Obviously. But I'm confused as to why my parents decided to keep it in there for so long. I think to mock me. Bastards.

If I was transported to a dog's body, do you know what I would do to mess with everyone?
First, I would learn Morse code.
Then I would try to find someone else who knows it.

And then I would just talk with them.
Short sentences, maybe just yes and no questions, but it would be great.

Those sausages may have been meant as a trap, but your parents apparently forgot about how dates of expiration tend to be printed on packages these days.
