I'll go against the others and agree with you. The best thing that ever happened to me was my family stopped moving every few years and being able to settle in one place during middleschool onwards really helped me a lot. Some of my friends to this day are my core group of middle-school friends, and my mom fought to keep me in district even when we moved within the state.

US. I've had delivery when I visited family in London or Dubai where there was a much better delivery experience so I know it can be great, but it just doesn't seem to be a thing outside of a few cities here.

The problem is most restaurants in my city unless they're pizza just don't deliver, and this applies to lots of cities across the country let alone suburbs.

For the car case, usually police shoot their radar at your license plate since it's a flat reflective surface anyways.

That's what I feel conflicted with as well when I'm building my products as well. I actually am a huge fan of your content and I did find it through a google search asking about parts of a car. I am glad that it brought me to finding it but I feel that especially for content creators there's not a whole lot of options you can have if you want to spread the word. I definitely will be throwing a purchase towards your video series later today.

I can assure you that Somalians are not the main contributer to the devestation of the areas like the Gulf of Aden. Most fishing there happens illegally from your "superior countries" taking advantage of the weak country's lack of protection of it's legal fishing waters. When people are fishers and foreign government's come into their land and drain the fish, people get angry.

I personally just hate/fear dogs after too many bad experiences growing up. Everybody looks at you as the burden or party pooper when you say you would prefer a dog free environment to work at.

I'm not sure on the numbers but I know a human couldn't get freight moving even with a whole jar of peanut butter.

There isn't really a possibility to cheat game mechanics in those sort of games thankfully since things like critical hits are all handled server side.
