  • LEGO is a trademarked name

    Correct way to talk about Lego bricks is to say Lego bricks

    “Pass me all your Lego!” Is not a correct sentence. “Pass me all your Lego bricks!”

    If there were 15 Lamborghini cars in a parking lot. You’d say “That’s a lot of Lamborghinis”

    Lamborghini doesn’t have to worry about Lamborghini becoming synonymous with “cars”. So Lamborghini doesn’t care.

    If everyone keep saying “Legos” for “Plastic Bricks”. Lego could have a trademark situation on their hands, so they try their hardest to stop people calling the individual plastic blocks Legos.

    It being plural is like a myth.

    I have many Lego. I enjoy playing with my Lego. My Lego makes me happy.







  • That’s why death penalty shouldn’t exist for crimes like a wife killing a husband. You might be 99.9% sure she poisoned him, but you cannot know for sure.

    However, a school shooter caught red handed shooting a school?

    Some crimes and scenarios can warrant the death penalty in my mind

    Next argument is “what if the government framed people to execute them?”

    Why in the world would the government point out that they are executing someone?

    If the government (the rich controlled government) wants you dead they would do it quietly.

    Even something as simple as cutting your brake lines. You really think local police are going to figure out that the government had soldier 65478 tamper with your brake lines?



  • Let’s say an 18 year old moves out and starts renting

    The average rent in US is 1.5k

    30 years of payment is 540k

    When that person is 48, they would have paid 540k in rent expenses

    This is assuming that rent doesn’t increase

    Throwing 600k out the window before you’re even 50 is not a recipe for success

    76 is US average life expectancy. That’s ~25 more years of rent.

    If they retire at 63. 13 years of 1.5k a month rent is 234k. They need a quarter million in retirement funds just for rent to live up until 76.

    45 years of working for that 18 year old would need to make ~750k.

    That’s 16.5k a year just to pay for rent

    Again this is assuming rent never goes up.

    That’s 8 dollars an hour 40 hours a week every week.

    10% more than minimum wage, just for rent.

    It’s crazy

    And this assumes you die and don’t have to rent after the age of 76
