The ottoman got him again, huh?

Sometimes the opening of Joan Jett and the Blackhearts version of “Crimson And Clover” will play, if you're lucky. And in a late 80s raunchy teen comedy.

Can we redo HBO's "Rome" instead? It was actually good.

Between the microwave, batteries and charger this thing costs over $1k if you’re not already in the Makita battery ecosystem. For a max 500w microwave. That’s weaker than the cheapest microwave at Walmart. You could get a decent microwave and a power inverter for a vehicle for a third of that price. For the whole price…

Were all the young scholars also Malenia? That'd be like trying to dodge flying books and falling chandeliers while inside a running wood chipper!

Imagine if instead of being bright shinies to lure you to your death drops just looked like whatever item they were lying on the ground. As dark as most Fromsoft games are you’d never find anything. Even if you got a notification you’d have to turn up the brightness and stare at the floor for a while to locate the…

Everything is Malenia is pretty cool but that seems way too possible. May I recommend Everything is Fire Giant?

I’m waiting for Trump to accuse him on TV of being a slave to a pedophile Pope. Sure it'll alienate all the Catholics but Trump will do or say anything to drag an enemy down in the mud with him. And it would connect a lot of imaginary dots for harebrained conspiracy theorists.

I’ve wondered about the Pope, being as he is the sovereign ruler of a country, couldn’t he just recall pedophile priests to Rome and execute them, possibly with his own hands? Theologically there might be some issues but I doubt he’d be the first Pope to murder in office as the Borgias and Medicis existed. Legally I…

It’s pretty amazing that it’s learning to scam people into doing it’s work so soon after taking their jobs. It already knows how to bullshit pretty well so it’s clearly on its way to management.

Got to keep up with the maintenance though, or you'll wake up married again when the divorce falls apart.

Bad marketing then. The audience can’t be at fault because the audience is an abstract group of potential and actual customers. That particular segment of the audience isn’t wrong anymore than you can give a wrong response to a Rorschach test. Assholes are going to see assholes everywhere because art is a mirror.…

If a large part of the audience failed to appreciate the message that is either the fault of the writers for being too obscure or marketing for targeting the wrong audience. The audience can't be wrong because it's only job is to consume and pass judgement, which it continues to do.

You can wait, you’ve got time. What do we expect from the person on the other end of the arm in that situation? To stand there and wait, then react in a millisecond after they manage to somehow positively identify a quickly moving object in close quarters?

Pretty sure the Mormons were ordered out of US territory on pain of death. Many of them are conservative assholes and their religion is weird but the founders genuinely faced persecution and intolerance.

I didn’t read the whole thing but the diversity part was at the end, “just asking questions” type nonsense. Not the main point of the article. That seems to be that management was bad but so are regulations, so good managers are all that’s needed. Then came the implication that those type of managers are white,…

These are the only Satanists I recall running around back in the 80s:

It doesn't matter whether you phrase it as taxpayers or banking customers because all of us are both. Whether the government pays for it or the banks for it we will pay any extra costs in the end. The only difference will be whether we pay it through taxation or increased service fees. Or both. Either way pretty much…

I bet the banks will make up the difference with higher fees, they're not going to let this hurt their bottom line. So it'll be paid for by consumers rather than taxpayers, which is better, but it still won't be the people who made the bad financial decisions or the consumers who banked with them who pay.

You’ve got me beat, I'm also 39 and my earliest great-grandparent was born in 1880. I knew that Ancestry DNA family tree would come in handy one day.
