I always knew that nicotine was addictive but, wow...that’s bad.

When my cousins were little kids they would hide my aunt’s cigarettes once they learned how dangerous they were in school. They never had to be told by their parents not to smoke, you couldn’t pay either of them to do so. She’ll be 50 this year, her 23 and 15-year-old daughters don’t smoke, and she’s pretty much…

I’m kinda glad I’m as “young” as I am, I never saw smoking as cool. I do enjoy the calming feeling of nicotine when I catch enough of it from being around enough smokers (I’m old enough that my dad used to smoke with me in the car with the windows up) but, it never appealed to me on that level, and especially not by…

My brother is a big guy and when he’s starting his night he’ll order two Long Island Iced Teas at the same time and generally finish the first one before the second even gets to him. After that, he slows down to a more “normal” rate of consumption but, at any bar where the people know him they just bring him two to…

The fact that you said A&E rather than ER tells me that you’re from a Commonwealth nation. As an American, if I think I have a problem but don’t, I can’t afford the fees. I have to wait until something is very wrong. I remember trying to tough out what I thought was constipation until an Urgent Care opened. My mother…

Creating issues in the middle east is bad, creating issues in an area connected to the US by a land border is worse.

He said that he likes the way that Kim Jong Un’s people “sit up and listen” when he speaks and that he “wishes that my people did that”. If by “my people” he meant the American people, then we have a wannabe dictator as President and he literally said so on television.

I heard someone call this selfish but, if petty selfishness is the only way to make someone change for the better, take advantage of it.

That’s exactly the point of the overruling of the decision. Speech is still free unless it’s someone standing in a crowd telling his compatriots to attack other people.

As StorminMike2000 said, the part of the ruling that you’re referring to in your link has been overturned.

Social interaction is far from easy.

Yeah...I’m a registered representative with only a few small clients and my office recently got a guy in from a larger firm to talk to us and he was pretty much preparing us to prepare our younger clients to “weather the storm” and our older ones to start moving assets into safer vehicles since selling low is the last…

The fact that that statement came from the team that best kept up with them last season (they only lost 37-22) makes a bit of a difference here but, I agree, it still doesn’t sound like whining.

Apparently, the creator of this game is the lead writer of Fallen London.

For my fellow Americans, that happens to be just over $4 US per gallon. We haven’t seen prices like that where I live in quite a few years now.

Come to think of it, the situation seems kinda familiar, but I can’t recall why.

It’s in beta for Android now. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.valvesoftware.steamlink&hl=en_US

I switched to Linux for all of University for this exact reason. The fact that it uses UTC for the system clock and only shows the user their time zone just feels so right to me. I just couldn’t stay away from Windows professionally afterward.

I ended up derailing the comments on a live recording of my friends podcast by arguing with one of the hosts about this same issue. The fact that everyone involved went to high school together (many years ago) and some of us had clearly been drinking didn’t help matters at all either.

Any Android device 7.0+ will automatically fail over to cellular data if a wifi network has no internet connection (I don’t know if iOS has a similar feature). In that case, you need to alter the settings as well as the wifi if you want to keep them off of messenger.
