Not until a minority tries to off the Toupee.

It actually (eventually) did work for me when a dealer sold me a car with a blown engine. Had to threaten legal action, but it started with a phone call, then a march to the office.

Good riddance, we don't want to listen to you change your mind 14 times, ask what the ingredients are in every dish, and then wait for you to act incredulous that you do indeed actually have to pay for the order before it will be placed.

What is not to like.

Being awake at that hour.

The city is in Indiana. OP thinks it's a cool part of the city because there's an Applebee's and an Olive Garden just a short 30 minute drive away.

I thought that was called a Sound of Thunder. Because the last line went "there was a sound of thunder, then silence." Or something to that effect, heavily implying that the time safari employee killed the hunter who stepped off the trail and on to a butterfly.

I also remember that one of the results of stepping on the butterfly was that all English words were spelled fonetically (typo intentional), a "mistake" I would happily go back in time to commit.

Cleaner if you're living without running water.

What if someone richer than the peach grower took a picture of the peaches, and then demanded everyone else pay them instead of the peach grower for copies of the photo of the peaches? Would you still be upset if the peach photographer didn't make money from every single person who obtained a copy of the photo of the peaches? In some cases, the peach grower got paid before the photo started being sold, in other cases the peach grower gets 0.0004% of the profit from each peach photo sold.

As if anyone born after 1980 answers their front door.

They always did seem to get louder when a wave of heat would roll over the area.

I very strongly disagree. It may appear that way, but community is simply less profitable than "influencers", so communities aren't invested in. Social media and even following influencers/content creators is an example of people looking for community, just not having healthy communities to pick from.

If you're defining long-term as 4-8 years, sure. If your idea of long-term is defined in decades, are you aware the planet is on fire?
