Haha. Five years later and this is still my tactic and it is still working. Listen until everything she wants to say has been said. THEN decide if something can actually be done about it.

I really wish Nintendo would just enable in-game chat like Fortnite. They’ve been so far behind the competition in online functionality for so many years that it feels like they’re blowing their best chance to level the playing field a little. Granted, I don’t play online very often, but I’ve heard plenty of people…
Every prenup for anyone who makes more than a million dollars per year should read simply:
Fair enough. Still, if everyone ignores the test they’ll just find an even more intrusive and unblockable way to reach people. IMO everyone should just let it happen and enjoy the (probably) years and years between the test and when it’s actually used for the first time.
The chins came in the same package as all the extra upper-arm fat.
Did their necks not evolve so they could reach food sources unavailable to other animals in order to reduce competition for resources?
I know (read: deeply hope) this was written somewhat tongue-in-cheek, but all the same...
Yeah, try getting a mortgage with no down payment, no interest, no mortgage insurance, no credit history, no proof of income, and no payment schedule. Show me that town and I’ll move there today.
If I work to earn money, I’m literally giving hours of my life for that money. Thus, the money and everything bought with it equate to a certain number of hours of my life, which is a very finite resource. It’s not unreasonable to want to do with my life-hours what I choose and to want as few of those life-hours to be…
“...crippling debt?”
I’ve been in my first house for about a year and a half. Yes, the principle absolutely crawls downward, but every dollar you pay above the minimum can make a big difference in the long run. My wife and I love throwing an extra $50-100 each month at our mortgage. Yes, financially there are more productive things we…
I’m not talking about a nuke landing on my house. I’m talking about a nuke a few towns over or anywhere the fallout might mean we should either evacuate or hunker down for a few days. And the test message is just that. A test. It’s to make sure people are actually able to receive it. This is being blown way out of…
Ok then.
My boys aren’t old enough to read yet (Kindergarten age), but this kind of backpack note thing would probably just get them to leave more stuff on the floor to see what else can “write.” I’ll tuck this tip away for when they’re older, though, as it might totally work for them. They change so quickly it’s impossible to…
100% agree. This sort of tactic also helps with the “WHY” questions. I’ll usually answer the first one if it’s possible, like “Why are giraffe’s necks so long?” “So they can reach the leaves at the tops of the trees.” (My oldest are 5, so I’m not going over Darwin just yet) But the inevitable followup “Why do they…
I’ve learned that the answer to all these Salty Waitress “How much should I tip X” questions is “MORE.”
Why? Yes, Trump is a colossal turd, but he didn’t invent this idea and anything that goes out through it has to be approved by FEMA. My guess is this system will go unused except for the occasional test until it’s inevitably replaced by a similar system that’s compatible with the latest sub-dermal or intraocular…
Sounds like your issues with him aren’t entirely political.
If a nuke is headed to anywhere in the country, I’d like to know about it. No, I’m not gonna shoot it out of the sky or anything, but knowing shit’s going down is better than not, n’est ce pas?
