If your dad is 10 years older than your mom, some questions are best left unasked...

Especially if his dad was 10 years older than twice his mom’s age when they met.

he was also my paternal grandpa’s bestest bud and living with the family for ~1 year at my grandpa’s invitation

I suspect you mean “maternal” grandpa here. Otherwise he was his own father’s bestest bud, and your mom was living with your dad’s dad for some reason.

Eat the rich means celebrities like you too.

It really doesn’t, but the ultra-wealthy very much want everyone to think it does.

Have a look at this for some perspective.

Why would you have any range anxiety? A plug in hybrid eliminates that.

It’s not real range anxiety. It’s “can we make it without using gas” range anxiety. When we first got the car, and hadn’t yet taken it on any long trips, we were anal about trying to maximize our “lifetime” gas mileage for the vehicle. We had it up over 200mpg at one point! But that meant trying to find chargers everywhere.

(After a few long trips tanked that value down to something more reasonable, we don’t care as much. I still try to charge whenever I can though.)

The Pandora section of Animal Kingdom is pretty cool, especially at night. And the Flight of Passage ride is incredible, a very easy suspension of disbelief once you’re on the “banshee” and feeling it breathe beneath you, and the wind and the spray of water as you fly.

Say what you will about Disney, they know how to make a theme park experience.

Yeah, we got a PHEV in 2022 and we love it. I do wish it had a bit more EV range, I end up with range anxiety driving to my in-laws’ in the next city over, but otherwise it’s fantastic.

Are you unfamiliar with Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy? CTE is linked to repeated head trauma. Physical trauma. Not toxins. It’s right there in the name: “chronic traumatic.”
