Sounds like a narcissist, like Trump or Jez from Peep Show.

Not a healthy outlook and works well to prevent self reflection.

Nahh, there's also a secret amendment that caps them out at 720° of motion in a single instance of movement.

Must be geographically limited as I don't.

I live in a town of 220,000 in the UK.

I'm a 5 minute walk from a small supermarket.

10 mins from a corner shop.

5 minute drive from a huge supermarket.

10 minute walk from a doctors' surgery.

20 minute walk from a dentist's.

20 minute walk from an opticians.

5 minute walk from a park.

15 minutes walk from primary and 10 minutes walk from a secondary school.

But we don't really do suburbs in quite the same way, and they're much more walkable than the pictures I've seen of US suburbia.

In the UK we have smaller "urban supermarkets" that sell everything you might need at home but there's not much choice in it, and there's a lot of ready to eat meal options. Kinda like a corner shop plus.

And then there are the fuck off huge supermarkets that are like THE Wallmart on the interstate on, usually, the edges of urban areas which have foreign food isles, clothes, toys, and more types of toothpaste than you could use in a lifetime of brushing three times a day.

3.3ft (and that's a decimal .3, not an imperial .3).

Two for you:

《The Wild Girls》 - Ursula K Le Guin

《Piranesi》 - Susanna Clarke

And if you read fast I reckon you could do China Miévilles 《The City and the City》 or Tade Thompson's 《Rosewater》 in a day.

Edit bonus: anything by Douglas Adams.

I can use a drill, jigsaw, or circular saw and not feel pain; yes.

Don't think this is just a me thing, as my family seem fine using them too.

I hadn't heard Fire in the Booth 4 before as it never hit my music streaming services. Thanks for waking me to its being.

Dig Lowkey too, music was the only good development of the criminal "war on terror".
