Yes it is, if you have the means to do so. Embrace that inner child

Pretty great actually. On my first relaxation vacation with no specific agenda in several years. The beach is gorgeous, the breeze is cool and the drinks are flowing. Life can be good, sometimes anyway. Trying not to think about the work stacking up that will be waiting for me on my return.

I would agree if it hadn't ended on such a massive and tantalizing cliffhanger. I think it's got another season in it for sure, but it also definitely doesn't need to be dragged out for several more seasons.

Counterpoint: I deleted my reddit account and no longer use reddit, so reposts from reddit are just posts to me. Without this "repost" I'd have never seen this content.

Hurricane Harvey was a bastard of a storm.

I was up all hours of the night for days on end keeping tabs on the flood control reservoir at the end of my street only a few houses away, it got dangerously close to overflowing but fortunately never did.

Craziest thing, I remember being inside my house in the middle of the day all dark no power, and I hear the unmistakable sound of a military helicopter getting closer and closer and suddenly the house was starting to shake. I ran outside and looked up and there was a Blackhawk hovering no higher than 50 meters directly above my house and a soldier poking their head out the side looking straight down, I swear we made eye contact it was so close. Fucking wild.

Dammit! I did not expect that!

Generally speaking yes, but there are some exceptions.

For example, flashlights intended to be attached to a firearm DO incur a premium for a good reason. They're subjected to intense sudden movement and vibration, repeatedly, and it takes a lot of extra hardening and redundancy to develop a light that can repeatedly withstand that kind of abuse without eventually knocking core components loose. If you were to try to attach a tactical light intended for airsoft/bb use to a real firearm, its not going to last long. There's a reason gun lights are as expensive as they are.
