Well, that could be a problem, seeing as apartment and condo dwellers typically have perfectly good options to install their own oil wells and refining plants. Right?

This may come as a surprise to you but, you can recharge EVs at service stations, just like old-fashioned combustion vehicles.

Addiction sounds like a more plausible problem than witchcraft to most of us. The word even had a meaning, once! If you were an addict and stopped using your drug of choice, you'd be facing chills, sweats, vomiting, and convulsions.

Oddly enough, that hardly ever happens when you stop using social media.

What? Oh. Hard drives.

Whatever. Close enough.

Well, that's simply terrible. Can't they be employed doing something else that's completely worthless?

You're telling me that now companies are trying to sell people things that they might want to buy? Oh noes! How horrible!

American car makers are apparently scared sheepless that Chinese EVs would be a big hit. As usual, they employ the government to screw with the market instead of improving their vehicles. Your take on this should be to accept their evaluation that American cars aren't worth buying.

Well... beyond... the...

Look, sonny, who do you think invented the Internet? No, it wasn't Al Gore (if you're even old enough to understand that reference). I didn't have to call in my grandchildren to set up my smart home for me, which is just as well, because they wouldn't have the faintest clue where to begin.

Are we to understand that your parents are technologically incompetent, and you assume that must apply to everyone else's parents?

If you can simultaneously focus on both far and near objects, you are definitely not human. That's not how eyes work at all.

What they have demonstrated is a remote-controlled toy. I'm sure it's charming.

Every... 5,000... miles? Are you out of your mind? Cars didn't need oil changes that frequently even back when they used unleaded gasoline. How far are you willing to go to lie for the petroleum industry?

An oil change for $100? Are you out of your mind? Where are you getting your car serviced? Do they wear tuxedos?

Oh my gods, Reddit has become self-aware? Please, tell us more about what Reddit believes, so that we might worship it accordingly. Does it believe in animal sacrifice, like the god of the Christians? I'm going to need to invest in turtledoves right away.

When are we going to finish building the wall to keep Americans from leaving the country, anyway? I thought that was one of Trump's priorities.

Yeah, let me know when they start injecting them.

If, by "addiction", you mean "people like it", I confess that I too enjoy smartphones. I have not yet gotten to the point of snorting them, let alone injecting them but, y'know, it could happen any day now.
