@Lauren all that matters is the water keeps moving, the hot water is simply wasteful. If it's really cold & pipes run along outside walls in a cabinet, you can also leave the cabinet doors open.

I'm good with people going to church and not wearing masks. It's classic Darwinian survival of the fittest and this seems like a good way to cull the herd.

Who uses a rice cooker or a magic pot?

glennlab comments on Feb 14, 2021:

I got a rice cooker as a wedding wedding gift from my aunt and uncle (rice farmers). I still have and use it 43 years later. No real bells or whistles, simple to clean and easy to store. I bought a backup for when it goes to the great recycling bin in the sky, I still haven't opened it.

AnneWimsey replies on Feb 14, 2021:

@fishline79 when my first ex got drunk, a trip to the ER was in my immediate future. Which he got drunk 3 or more times a week,, in the days before hotlines/shelters or trained cops. Somebody blatting on about "PC" stuff will not change my visceral reaction to any drunk. Somebody who is drunk can explode into violent rage because their green beans are cold. Period. And p.s. I own most of the Monty Python movies & enjoy them. Also, just for giggles, try watching this filtering out the "drunk shtick"...it isn't funny at all! Also I have done stand-up comedy myself & caused people to pee their pants talking about everyday occurences.

AnneWimsey replies on Feb 13, 2021:

@CourtJester you mean, otherr countries who have had literally hundreds of thousands less dead than here? Countries whose "leader" advised ingesting/injecting disinfectant, putting light probes up inside, or, I dunno, hydochloroquinine, a Malaria drug? Countries whose "leader" told them it is a "hoax" and laughed at wearing masks & distancing? What other countries did any of this garbage? I could go on, but why bother, you never learn.

@Castlepaloma as I identified above, you have several times repeated the Lie that "4 different hospitals' would give you different results, including on a very recent post that you got 4 tests,2 positive, 2 negative....which tells me you somehow lied (again) in order to take tests away from those who needed them Or lied about the entire thing. Either way, you are a despicable quasi-human being.

The Covid does not kill, one dies of the pneumonia one gets because the body is depleted by the Covid. The result is that the deaths probably would not have happened if it were not for the Covid.
