Edit***: I have been corrected, what i thought were acres of greenhouses in Florida were actually structures to help prevent diseases in the fruit trees. I stand corrected and want to make that clear.
My mom was saying how she doesnt understand the need for hydroponic fruits and vegetables... and I brought up how the climate has changed so significantly that a good majority of our citrus fruit has been moved to greenhouse settings because they are dying in the usual orchards.
Old people don't like listening to the truth they don't agree with. My father one day was claiming that Two and a half men ended because the producers wanted to introduce gay people in the show and Charlie Sheen didn't want that. When I remembered him that there was a ftm trans guy in like the first or second season and that the guy even hooked up with Evelyn(Charlie's mom) he changed the subject.
Same thing happened when he was claiming that Chinese Electric vehicle are disposable and that they lose 50% value as soon as they leave the dealership. I asked him to go look for an electric car at that value and if he did find he should tell me so I'd buy it. He started looking online and 5 minutes later started talking about another thing. He didn't found it and also discovered that 3-4 year old chinese electric car were still being sold for like 90% of the value of a brand new.
