  • You will get answers as varied as people. Some people think buying a gift is a sign of a transactional relationship while others think they can't possibly show up without one. Some people just send a card via mail and others gather the whole family. There isn't a standard.

    In my case the whole family gathers for a home cooked meal, but occasionally we've done lunch out. We bring a gift. It's like a birthday sort of.

  • Meme where

  • You got the country right. What's your idea of a small car? When was the last time you drove in Australia? How large are the lanes where you live?

    Of the cars you listed (or better said the website listed) only the Nissan Leaf is under 1800 mm width ( 1780 mm ). With a length of 4490 mm it's not exactly a small car though, but I'll grant you it's within an acceptable size range for a vehicle. I haven't seen many around tbh. The MG zs EV follows closely at 1809 x 4323, acceptable sizes but not small.

    The Tesla T3, TY (you see these two a lot), Kia EV5, and BMW ix1 are well above 1900mm width. The T3, by far the most popular, is exactly 1933mm W x 4720cm L, the TY only 3cm longer. Hardly, hardly what I'd call a small car.

    The other models listed are all above 1800cm width, and their lengths are over 4200 mm.

    Let's compare these sizes against popular PICKUP models. Ford Ranger: 1910 mm x 5225, Volkswagen Amarok: 1910x 5350, Mitsubishi Triton 1815x5305, BYD Shark3 1994x 5195, Nissan Navara 1850 x 5120.

    TESLAS ARE WIDER THAN PICKUPS. Why??? Most other EVs have comparable widths to those of a pickup. Is that small?

    Examples of actually small cars: Honda Jazz 1694mm x 3996, Toyota Yaris 1710x 3940, Suzuki Swift 1735x 3840, Nissan Micra 1665x 3780, Fiat Mini Cooper 1744 x 3876. These are relatively recent models. If you look for older ones, before 2020, you'll find even more under 1600mm. Before the 2000s, you get cars even narrower than that.

    New roads might take the current average car sizes into account, but nobody is broadening already existing streets.

  • Oh. In the USA huh ?

    No

  • Agreed 100%.

    I was expecting to see some charity fundraiser news or something

  • This is not how you are supposed to credit, and also the comics are supposed to be all in one image only. The second image in the body of this post won't load for me.

  • Sir, the questions can be stupid but they must remain coherent please

  • It's contagious. You see, the virus spreads with the ashes of burnt grass. These tiny particles are inhaled or ingested accidentally by another person, and after a few weeks, they burn their toast, and are compelled to take the burning toaster outside, burning more grass and restarting the cycle all over again.

  • Renaults are rare in Australia (and for some reason also disliked by aussies in general ). I would say the most popular brands are BYD, Tesla, Honda, Toyota, Kia, and Hyundai, easily more than half the cars you see in circulation today. I can probably count with my fingers the amount of times I've seen a Renault while driving.

  • On the same boat and yes it's depressing. It's also depressing that nobody seems to be thinking about all electric small cars, or even normal width cars, at least where I live. Teslas and BYDs here are about as wide as buses. I can only dream of Honda or Toyota making an electric vehicle no wider than 70% of the lanes they're supposed to drive on.

  • Vampires?

  • This depends on what you mean by date

    If you mean pursue a long term relationship, the answer probably is around 30 and 45

    If you mean a short term fling or one time thing, the answer is 25 to probably 60. This depends a lot on their physical condition.

    Edit: also, F38

  • Great rendering settings, bit of a clipping issue though

  • Edit: can someone explain why the downvotes in this post? Is OP a bot, AI or a known troll with a new account? (I use Boost which doesn't show the ai tags) This is the right community for obvious questions after all

    Answer: Because of the type of work and the working conditions. Very simple.

    Not everyone is lucky to work doing something they love. Not everyone is lucky to work doing something others show appreciation for

    When you do meaningless underappreciated work, that barely pays you to survive, that forces you to sacrifice so much time away from doing things you actually enjoy - wouldn't you hate it?

  • This work of art is missing the artist's signature. I love the stoned out face

  • I get this is in jest, but the articles are dated 2014 and 2017.

  • The unfamiliar. Especially at 23. I didn't know shit at 23. Then I left my home

  • I guess OP is looking for a jerboa alternative that can be installed through the playstore. Isn't the Google shit this thing in which your phone will now not allow sideloading?
