Hendrix. Hendrix is the fosbury of music. Dude went off in his own direction in both technical and compositional terms, and a lot of people followed.

There's solid points in the comments, but I feel like we're talking about a single individual ignoring convention here, and there's really only one answer in that context :)

Attachment to either party is waning among younger voters. A plurality (41%) of them call themselves independents.

I swear this is a generational thing. Silent Gen were rebellious bastards, boomers were not, gen x are rebellious bastards, millennials are not, gen z going with being rebellious bastards totally checks out .

My old gen x ass is 100% with you my little dudes/dudettes... Gotta fight for your right to party ;)

Sums up my experience with reddit, except I brought my own app originally and everything was cozy for years, then one day, this…

The Victorian Fisheries Authority states the money for the program comes from the Recreational Fishing Licence Trust Fund, which is raised through fishing license fees.

Kinda makes it an investment of sorts...

I live in rural north Idaho, which is definitely one of the places you're referring to, and simply saying you feel threatened is only going to get you so far... Your assertion that the random person at the door was a threat has to meet a "reasonable" criteria. A reasonable person would have to feel threatened under the circumstances.

Putting a .30-30 round through the front door when somebody rings the doorbell is a total crapshoot. If it's the pizza guy or FedEx, I'm 100% fucked, because nobody's going to buy that they were being threatening in any way.

It's not as simple as you're suggesting :)

Might think they aren't fucking around, but take a shot at random folks ringing the doorbell and theyll definitely find out... Cops are gonna show up, and they're likely to be a little grumpy.

In case Apple’s advice doesn’t work, it’s safe to say that you probably need help from professional repair experts and may even need to prepare yourself to buy a new iPhone.

I'm reasonably certain that once enough governments jump on the "we need to control the internets" bandwagon, there will be a region specific convention adopted similar to country codes for phone numbers so that they can, in fact, apply customs to it...

I suspect it won't be in the name of righteousness though, more likely it'll be taxes, copyright, etc, on internet sales that trigger it.
