Why does some social media platforms calls it an "account suspension" but others calls it a ban or something else?
Why do people road rage?
Is it an isolated event or does it have any correlation with anything else?
Why do many folks play follow the leader even into adulthood?

How did living in caves not backfire on cavemen?
I have a lot of indirect experience/knowledge with caves. I don’t have to be one of the people who directly explored one to know one of the first things one learns about caves is how ill-suited for wandering around they are.

Can you take the lint from your dryer and make clothing?
I know its not quite that simple, I’d have to make thread first, and after I get enough, make clothing out of it. Could this actually be done? I can sew, but never made my own clothing nor have I ever made thread, so I don’t know if it could actually be done or not. I’m 100% sure the time and effort would not be worth it,...
How can I become a better conversationalist?
Something I’ve never been that great at is spontaneous conversation. I’m more than capable of public speaking if I’ve prepared something in advance. But if someone asks me something out of the blue, I really struggle to engage in deep conversation. Afterwards I’ll think to myself damn, why didn’t I bring up X or Y?...
Is Fiction Literature Powerful? (The Same Way Non-fiction Is?)

My elderly parents' car broke down a couple hundred miles away. How can I get them and their car home (or fixed) with a minimum of cost and hassle?
My parents were driving to the beach for vacation. Their car broke down in a small city just under 100 miles from their destination and about 250 miles from home. It’s under warranty, but the nearest dealership is 50 miles away (in a completely different direction than either home or the beach), and of course neither a...
