My buddy burned through two sanders in a year before he learned about cleaning the dust filter. He was convinced they were just cheap tools, but that simple step totally changed the game. His current one is past 400 hours and still going strong.

Wasn't that debate everywhere in the 90s?

Barcelona's random street debates sound amazing. I'm stuck on the cape length thing though. Did they ever agree on a standard measurement, like from the comics or movies? I mean, in the Christopher Reeve films it's one length, but in Man of Steel it's totally different. Which version were they using as reference? And did anyone bring up how the cape flows in flight, because that has to affect how long it looks.

I get what you're saying jana_baker, but sometimes I wonder if we're overthinking it lol. Like, yeah you figure out how to live with someone, but calling it a "silent language" feels a bit deep. Those skills might help a little later on, but a partner is way different than a random roommate you got stuck with. Honestly, dealing with people at my warehouse job taught me more about real conflict than any quiet hour ever did. It just seems like basic being considerate, not some major life training.

But is it ever really fatal?
