Right? Such a cool name! I also would not mind if they renamed earth to Terra, though, to keep the trend. But if we keep Uranus, we should make earth Gaia, so Uranus won't be so lonely as the only Greek in the solar system.

I may, may, be anthropomorphizing our planets a bit

Let me help every woman you'll sleep with going forward, then. Don't just jizz on the bed when you pull out. It also gets cold, but now it's where you need to sleep. Lol.

Also don't get it in their hair, it's a bitch to get out if it dries. Invest in a daily glass of pineapple juice, though, and you probably won't have to worry about it where to end. They won't mind swallowing so much

I'm a genuine proponent of renaming Uranus to "Caelus." It's the only planet (save earth) not named for a Roman god. It's named for a Greek god, and completely breaks the naming convention. Funny word play aside, I'd like to see it renamed Caelus.

Ever driven 45 minutes home after bottoming? It get pretty cold before you get to a shower

Yeah, actually, now that you mention it, I never had to specify before. Started doing that after mentioning it a few times and people thinking I meant cyber security lol

I could get behind this. The low end of a bunch isn't as clearly defined in my head as the others. So long as it isn't precisely 12, it's okay. Lol. Also, 6 is often "half dozen" but not always.

I agree with the poster below, in that they're ambiguous terms used interchangably, descriptive linguistics and whatnot. But in my brain, they're hard coded as couple=2, few=3, several=4+, a bunch= 10 or more, but not 12. Can me 10, 11, 13+, but can't specifically be 12. That's a dozen.

In my last car, most of it went in the trunk. I currently drive a pick-up because we have to have a way to haul my mom's power wheelchair, so it mostly goes behind the seats folded up. I don't have the TV or anything like that anymore. But some ramen noodles, an inverter, a kettle, a sleeping bag, pillow, change of clothes, extra shoes, light blanket/thick sheet, couple towels, first aid kit. Oh, and water

Re: your edit. Absolutely, I hope I didn't suggest otherwise in my question.

Re: the rest. That makes sense, I suppose. But it still seems genuinely fucked. Almost as if our laws are designed to give the middle finger to the island and it's residents.

Okay, I'm worried about jumping into this one because it seems to have gotten heated. But I'm really curious about something.

I'm a US citizen, born in South Carolina. If I move to England, i can still vote via absentee ballot.

If a Puerto Rican, an American citizen, moves to South Carolina, they can vote just like any other citizen.

If I, born in the US mainland, moved to PR, would I be eligible to vote for the president via absentee ballot?

Because if not, that's genuinely fucked. If I can move to a whole ass other country and maintain that right, but lose it if I move to a part of my own country, that makes no sense. Honestly, it's downright fucking hostile.

That's really interesting! In the us, I lived extremely rural, without running water or electricity for several years. If we needed to do anything, we had to crank up a generator and use shitty satellite Internet in the beginning. After a while we got a few small/cheap solar panels and a couple car batteries we ran stuff off of.
