I always find it mystifying and funny how the militant ‘christian’ set gets so f-ing angry at other people who, presumably because they aren’t serious Christians, aren’t celebrating THEIR GUY JESUS’s special day overtly enough! Earth to Christians: It’s YOUR job to market Jesus, not “every employee of every business…

That’s quite interesting but it also makes me wonder if there’s any more to the story than one unsourced, uncaptioned picture. If true it would be interesting to get the full details.

I have to wonder how many of those visits were the result of inadequate parenting

Counterpoint: The trip to the ER to fix your broken whatever costs about 2000% what it did in 1982. Many Americans can’t afford the bills or even the level of health insurance it would take to make this not a crippling expense. Remember, nearly half of Americans couldn’t afford a $400 unexpected expense. Hospital…

This is weird advice. It ignores 2 key things.

Actually, 95 barely works in virtual box these days. They don’t provide their drivers so the OS can take advantage of the capabilities of the VM, so I think last time i tried I was stuck with like 16 colors, 640x480.

Finally went ahead and opened a HY savings. CIBC US has a 1.90% account that is easily googled. Their online banking website is a joke but I don’t need to use it after setting up ACH for moving money in both directions from my brokerage account. ACH does still suck in that it takes about 2-3 days for money to…

You’re right. And it seems pretty easy to trace this to MySpace and Facebook. MySpace just like  AIM, etc., didn’t encourage you to use surnames or even real first names. You could just use any nickname you wanted. In my opinion though they went too far toward allowing you to make an absolute mess with their hacks…

I’ve recently found that the app Hiya, on iOS, can block the “neighbor scam” calls - the ones where they just use your first 6 digits and pick a random last 4 every time. Install the app, follow the directions to make sure you have enabled it to block calls, and then go into the “Protection” tab, scroll down, and turn…

That gold mask would go really well with Lindsay Bluth’s favorite diamond cream!

Agree that those are the nicest setup for everyone of all genders, but they just aren’t very space-efficient. I think just building double-sized versions of a hybrid “stalled” bathroom (I’d say urinals with wider partitions sticking out so people don’t worry about their daughters seeing a weiner or whatever) makes the…

There is no “left hanging.” You didn’t hear from her. You know why. She’s not into you. There is no ambiguity in being ghosted.

And plus, there’s generally zero upside (for either of you) for taking that risk anyway. Best case you tell the guy no and he’s like “Sure, that’s fine” and you never see him again. Yay. Worst case... well absolutely worst case he kills you.

That’s goddam amazing advice. Seriously. These text systems and stuff are pretty reliable. If your text goes unreplied-to it’s 100% that they don’t want to talk to you, and doing anything besides the “Nothing” option just embarrasses you. Sure, ghosting isn’t fun but in fact it’s usually way better for both parties…

Best workaround:

That’s a good point. I really hope he makes it to November 2020 so he can watch himself badly lose his second nationwide popular vote, and his first electoral college. Then hopefully he dies of diarrhea mid-speech. I will then make it my mission to guarantee the resulting picture of him is his main Wikipedia profile…

You can definitely tell that she believes a (Republican) president shouldn’t have to answer any questions. The very idea offends her. It’s as if a normal person found out their job was to be slapped in the face. No wonder she always looks and sounds so pissed.

>the connection between employee and consumer is rarely made...

Good. Even with these occasional things — even if I cared about idiots like this who cross a dark street at night without bothering to check for oncoming traffic OR use a crosswalk — even with these incidents, the self-driving cars are still better than the average idiot that they’d be taking OUT of the drivers seat,…

Genuine question here: does this mean Google is finally putting a bullet in the embarrassingly cutesy “dessert names” for every OS? I groan more each year when I hear the dumb names they keep coming up with, especially the years where they did an awkward product placement deal like Kit Kat and...was it Oreo last year?…
