This could be work or recreational related. Anything you've done that you sit back and go "hell yeah I did that". I'm typically wary of working on cars because I have big hands and no auto specialty tools. But, I was able to make a pretty involved (for me) repair last week and I've felt really great about it since. What about you?

If you've never been in one, no need to comment "never". For me it was over a decade ago as a teenager at a state fair. Quick fight broke out between an annoying guy and myself. He was following my little group around tossing stink bombs at us. A little pushing turned into a little punching. We both ended up in cuffs but neither with actual charges. We were both banned for the following 2 years from that fair.

I personally feel its the best medium for comedy. I have plenty of comics I really like as well.

Personally, I've always loved the process of taking things apart, understanding how they work and putting them back together. I turned that into a degree in mechanical engineering and eventually a career in power plant operations. Couldn't be happier with my work than I currently am. Its WORK but I don't hate it and I feel like I'm doing something important.

If you wanna be cute I guess you can say caffeine. But, I'm really looking for what the average boomer would consider a drug. For me, its psilocybin mushrooms a few times a year. Weed here and there too

If you don't, no need to reply telling me you don't. I live in the woods with some critters. I live pretty far from neighbors/police so having a gun gives me peace of mind. I also hunt and consider myself a gun hobbiest. I enjoy shooting targets, cleaning/organizing, reloading and earning food with guns.

I've seen/read plenty of media about being locked up in various types of jails and prisons. But, I'd like to hear some first hand accounts from people. How'd you pass the time, see anything rough, what country were you in, did you rehabilitate yourself, was there even opportunity to rehabilitate yourself?

The question comes in light of the recent young republicans leaks. Firstly, I'm not a republican and I think the shit they were saying was out of line, regardless of context. That said, the situation, among countless other times similar things have happened made me think. Is it reasonable to hold individuals accountable for statements made that they thought were in private. I think the public figure aspect is obviously the main catch here. In instances where the individual is a public figure, they kind of made their bed in my opinion. That said though, the more normal and sensational these events become the more realistic it is to widen in scope. Would it be reasonable for a future employer or date to pull up your group chats/private messages/anonymous posts?

Seems like hard-core hate for anyone religious is fine in many circles. Is there a point where it becomes as problematic as other forms of bigotry? Not any specific religion necessarily just the disdain for the religious in general.
