    Nearly 80% of Americans now view fast food as a luxury
  • If that's the case, a luxury of convenience, then fast food was and still is a luxury. Or maybe fast food was an $affordable luxury of convenience and now it is an $$$expensive luxury of convenience. Ok, that makes sense to me.

    Nearly 80% of Americans now view fast food as a luxury
  • Fast food isn't a luxury. A luxury is something extravagant, high quality, and highly enjoyable. Fast food is simply an overpriced disappointment.

    Box Office: ‘Furiosa’ Just Barely Beats ‘The Garfield Movie’ in Disastrous Memorial Day Weekend — the Worst in Decades
  • I saw Furiosa in the theater Sunday. About 7 people in the theater. Movie was good, tad slow in the middle, but definitely got me tense a few times. I don't know what it is about movie theaters but they always seem grimey and as I get older I don't tolerate grimey things as much. I'd give the movie 7/10 and the movie theater experience 4/10.

    New research shows gas stove emissions contribute to 19,000 deaths annually
  • Reading through the articles and linked articles in the comments, gas stove emissions contribute to, not a direct cause of, the deaths of .04% of the 50 million people in the US that use gas stoves.

    Not saying this isn't important, but I don't think this will ever crack the top 10 concerns of my lifetime.

  • I use mine during work hours, right before bed, and toilet time. After that I sometimes forget where it is. I don't take it with me into places like movies, restaurants, ball games, etc

    If I were to lose it today I'd consider getting a replacement in a few days - maybe a week. I do text wife and friends but I'm at the point where if my phone beeps I'll get to it whenever.

    I am Gen X if that plays into it.

    I ask because I've been doing a lot of research the last few weeks and Google search has really let me down. I've been finding better results on DuckDuckGo and Bing. Is this a recent thing with Google or am I out of the loop? Any other search recommendations?
