That’s okay, I don’t want these writers reviewing things anyway. All they’ll do is shit on it with their unfunny snark.

Jonathan Frakes comes to mind here.

I was just about to say the same thing you did - I also assumed they were the same car.

I’m in the same boat. A lot of folks don’t realize that unused PTO shows up as a liability on the company’s balance sheet. Middle managers may not care about this, but the C-suite definitely does, because this can affect the company’s credit rating.

Exactly, and frankly, the use of Cockney slang, given that it exists intentionally to confuse those who aren’t of the low socioeconomic class that traditionally uses it, demonstrates that Pete-Murray-Whatthefuckever intended to be misunderstood, so he could act all superior about it.

You’re welcome!  I’d link a Wikipedia page about Cockney rhyming slang, but, you know, Kinja.

There was a Douglas DC-8 that also went supersonic in a dive.

“Seppo” comes from Cockney rhyming slang. Basically, it’s used to obfuscate what the speaker is actually saying. In this case, it’s referring to an American (Yank) by calling them a “septic” as in “septic tank.” “Seppo” is a further obfuscation.

My pick will always and forever be The Bangles’ version of Hazy Shade of Winter.

Yes, that’s what I’m saying.  Our household income disqualifies us from the tax credit, yet you really need to make that kind of money to afford one of these EVs right now.  The credits might as well not exist for many buyers.

I live in Cypress and am dying laughing at this list.  It looks like it’s from the Simpsons?

Yeah, I think The Sopranos and Mad Men had it right; 13 episode seasons gave those shows time to breathe and enabled each episode to be its own mini-movie with a self-contained story, while still driving the plot forward to one extent or another. I think this approach would do wonders for shows like Star Trek:…

I think that is a still a solid joke that makes a great political point. I think that’s a situation where who is telling the joke would change how it would land if done today. On a show like Atlanta or This Fool, having it come from a show made by POCs would make all the difference.

Fair enough, I’m in agreement with you on EVs.

Maybe he gets throat cancer and once he recovers, his voice is totally different. That way you can use what Hardwick recorded, if you want.

Not to mention that, given the current interest rate environment, and the price of new EVs, the Venn diagram of people who can afford a new EV and people whose household income qualifies for much of the tax credit might as well be two separate circles.

Exactly. If my wife and I still had a commute, we would consider an EV, but without an incentive, I wouldn’t want one while battery technology and the charging standards are still in flux. But a $7500 incentive probably would have gotten us to at least consider one.

I mean, it’s reasonable to think that way from a fairness perspective, but then don’t complain when families who make over the income limits don’t buy EVs.  I see no reason to be an early adopter without some sort of incentive.  Battery technology and charging standards are changing so rapidly, that I see no reason to…

Thank you. I apologize as you are not the one who said “bootlicker.” You did, however, use “management stooge,” “management shill,” and “worker hating strike breaker,” and telling people to fuck off. Admittedly, it wasn’t directed at me; i conflated two people saying “fuck off,” and it was the other one who said it…

I work in healthcare, but do not provide patient care.
