If that happens, I wonder if we'll all look like those guys from Wall-E someday. I prefer walking to the store myself, burning at least some calories

Sure, but you don't always have time to go to the store. Especially if you're already making something. And besides, here the stores aren't in walking distance.

Depends if there are many people who are moving slowly. I hate that!

But that's a question of urban policy. You could easilly change that, but that won't happen there, and, most of all, not overnight!

I wonder if, in the future, someone will invent artificially intelligent robots capable of both answering questions and running basic errands (but not taking over the world).

"Where's the packing tape?"
Robot: "We don't have any more."
"Go get some."
"Okay."

Also useful for when you want to cook something, or maybe you're already halfway through, and you realize you don't have some ingredient. Not that that's ever happened...

Those are called kids

I can easily change what? Urban policy? Not so much.

Eventually though I'm hoping to be in NYC where the stores ARE in walking distance.

It all makes sense...

Mine aren't big enough to go alone yet.

Mine aren't big enough to go alone yet.

Thats why I started so early (no, not really, but I can always say so).

Now I wonder, what's "walking distance" to you?

Now I wonder, what's "walking distance" to you?

Within a km or so? The nearest grocery store is about 2-3km away.

There's a gas station really close, but it doesn't have all that much and what it does have is overpriced.

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

I still can't move my neck even a tiny bit without it hurting. This has got to be the worst bangover ever.

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

Completely and totally worth it.

But ow.

And this in a country where one doesn't have to leave his car to go to an ATM. You can remain seated in your car!

almost time to go home

toke about an hour to finally go home because of an outage that we had all day, that at the time of my post seemed to be fixed.
than of course it turned out the problem was back again, and we still have this problem... so I went to work earlier today and I'll be here until 7 (at least) what a great week this is going to be!

After a near-miss that I witness on my weekly stroll to the hospital, I wondered yet again how some people are allowed to have children Pretty sure the guy on the bike who passed me agreed.
