    Hypothetically,

    Is there a threshold below which an election is deemed invalid? I honestly don't know. It would be interesting to see what would happen if no candidate got a single vote. It really is a shame there isn't an option to say "none of the above". Elections seem to be more and more about both sides...

    Hypothetically,

    Does that have anything even remotely to do with the original question?

    A habit from the pandemic

    Ignoring things that don't make any sense regardless of who says them.

    Is it LAWFUL to kill animals?

    Honestly, your posts look like you're trying to say "God isn't saying what I think he should be saying, please justify this". If God says we can eat animals then we can eat animals. If you don't want to eat animals then you are welcome to abstain from eating animals. If you're unhappy with what...

    A clear glass-base table lamp

    Colored oil, or colored glass beads if you'd rather reduce the risk of spillage. Glass beads also allow you to mix colors more effectively than oil.

    A rough childhood

    Lacking basic skills you'd expect them to have. If you see a teenager who doesn't know how to tie their shoelaces, tell the time on a clock, use a knife and fork, chances are they've been neglected in many other areas too.

    The Big Bang

    On a forum like this it's hardly surprising most people will come up with some variation of "God did it". As Josiah said it's the sort of thing that can't be conclusively proven or disproven one way or the other. Essentially we have to figure that if there's an identifiable time that everything...

    Your political views

    I guess a lot would depend on the anarchist. As you say so much depends on the precise definition of "anarchist". Which leads on to... I think you and I agree that "no rules at all" doesn't work unless you are either very rich or very powerful, because it turns into totalitarianism where the...

    Your political views

    My guess would be that some libertarians would see it as a matter of freedom for the mother while others would see abortion as a clear violation of the rights of the unborn. As with just about every other discussion about abortion the underlying issue is whether that thing in the womb is a bunch...

    A “Mom and Pop” shop

    Not necessarily a "mom and pop" shop but my wife and I had an afternoon meal at a local independently owned place. As a rule we prefer independent places to chains.

    Imagination & delusions

    I can imagine dragons and unicorns without believing they are real.

    Your political views

    I guess the question is the scope of "no government". We can argue that there's no need for government to be involved in regulating whether I'm allowed to go for a hike while accepting there's a need for some form of government to regulate environmental pollution, for example. We can argue that...

    Your political views

    I imagine different people within those groups think different things. Certainly some people think that if we took away government we'd all sit around campfires singing kumbaya and life would magically develop into utopia with no external guidance. I can't say I've come across very many of...

    Pandemic Amnesty?

    It's good that we should show one another grace at an individual level, given most of us have had to make a best guess based on our own appetite for risk and perceived vulnerability to a new disease. We shouldn't be too quick to give those in power a free pass, given how many of them ignored...

    Faked being sick

    I did a few times - many years ago I had a manager who was a stickler for rules even when it made no difference. He was the kind of guy who would deny a late request for a day off because he expected a certain amount of notice, even if there was hardly any work to be done. Most of the team...

    Eye exams

    I think I had my last professional eye test 15 years ago. At that point my vision was more or less the same as it had been seven years previously. Rough-and-ready eye tests suggest my vision is somewhere around 20/20 and maybe slightly better. Curiously I can also read small print - apparently...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    I got my hands on some six-port push-fit wire connectors. Two of them strapped together meant I could connect all of my earth wires, and I used smaller push-fit connectors to join the loose live and neutral wires together. I also managed to pull the extra cable to the final switch and get...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Playing with some wiring today. My wife was busy so I ran a few new cables, and found a handy place to disconnect the main circuit from the bit I'm working on so I don't have to get everything finished off before it gets dark - I can take my time with this one. So far I've got one switch wired...
