Everyone swears by the new synthetic oils but I had a 6.7 Powerstroke run cleaner on conventional for 80k miles.

My old 12 valve Cummins went 300k on cheap store brand diesel oil and never had a problem. The oil change intervals matter way more than the marketing on the bottle. People get talked into spending double for no real gain. If the analysis is clean, you're doing it right.

Just found out the original title for 'To Kill a Mockingbird' was completely different

Wow, that's wild. It makes you wonder how many iconic titles were just editor suggestions. I remember hearing that 'The Great Gatsby' was almost called 'Trimalchio in West Egg' or something weird like that. Fitzgerald's wife hated it. Kind of changes the whole vibe, you know? Like imagining that book with a totally different name on the cover.

My cousin's obsession with collecting every Catan expansion has me puzzled

My uncle has three unopened tool sets in his garage, same idea. I see this everywhere now, people buying the full set of something for a life they imagine having. It is not about playing the game, it is about having the complete picture ready on the shelf. The hobby becomes collecting the pieces, not actually using them.

My uncle told me to ditch the zoom lens for the Orion Nebula and just use my 50mm prime.

Stacking wide shots is a game changer for real.
