The blood that will never wash away is slavery, genocide, and conquest; those are a bit more sinister than self-interest, don’t you think?

I agree with Macron’s words, but they still ring hollow. Like the U.S., like Britain, like Germany and Belgium and Russia, the French have blood on their hands that will never wash away.  Any Western leader who talks about moral values is a hypocrite.

Between the receipt coupons and the 10% off entire purchase coupon you get in the mail, it actually does save us a lot of money.

I can’t believe this is a big deal. It happens to me almost every time I buy something at CVS. BTW, the difference between a 3-item receipt and a 50-item receipt would be like 7 inches, so I don’t think it would have been worse based on the number of items alone.

As a management consultant, I absolutely loved this movie. I think it could have been a little more sadistic in the middle section, but it was just glorious anyway. Kinda like Office Space meets The Purge.

Winston Churchill drank a bottle of whisky and smoked 20 cigars a day for 70 years or so.  Now THAT is a worthy aspiration!

Thanks, I’ll have to give that one a look.
