No, that's "indiot". "Invincible" means to not be eccentric and weird.

Capitalism works when people can participate

OK then, let's allow all people to participate by giving everyone their fair share of Amazon and other big businesses.

I'm all for communising them. I'm just not sure that capitalism is the right expression for that, but I can't come up with a better word...

I'm still waiting for someone to build this into a tank. It probably wouldn't help your fighting ability, but you'd for sure be the Oest G on the battlefield.

There's only one great season. Sadly it was quite short this year, at least where I live. https://song.link/i/549480694

What would you sue for? Just move to West Virginia with your sister and be happy. Maybe you could sue 23andme to pay for the moving truck.

I had six so far 🙂:
New Years, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Labour Day, Ascension Day, Pentecost.

There are only 4+ ²/₂ official holidays left in the rest of the year though:
German unity day, Reformation day, 2 Christmas Days. Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve are ½ a holiday each.

Or she marries a really bad carpenter: Breaking Bed.

I'd love to see a spinoff where she marries a bar keeper who is really shitty at his job. Name of the show: Shaking Bad.

Every month is wild. Do the electricity prices change based on the season or why can't they just calculate the average over a year?

Recently we also got more and more smart meters here in Germany, as there are a few power companies that calculate your price by the hour. But that's not based on your maximum consumption but on the time of the consumption. If you use the solar and wind power on a windy summer day it's basically free, whereas the price goes up when it's expensive power from gas plants on a windless winter night. So you can lower your price by washing or charging your car at the right time.

That probably would not work that way in Norway as you have a lot of hydroelectric power which is available much more continuously, as far as I understand.

Are there really people in the US driving from house to house reading the meters? In Germany you just get a letter (or an email nowadays) asking you to read the meter and tell them. Unless the values you're providing are obviously wrong, noone questions you.

If you lie there you'll be found out when you move out of your apparent or when the meter is changed after 20 or 30 years.
