I just starred this comment for the 42nd time. What a world system galaxy universe multiverse.

If you put Schrödinger’s gun on Chekhov’s table in the first act, what happens in the third?

“If we allowed monitors to carry firearms to protect themselves, this tragedy would never have happened.”

Here’s how I know time travel will never be invented: someone from the future would have knocked on Hillary’s door and handed her a picture of Thomas Dewey, a politician from New York who took it easy on the campaign trail because everybody just knew that he had it in the bag.

Trader Joe’s is just Aldi for hipsters.

I make a point to buy the aluminum cans to take to work.  Then the empties get crushed and come home with me, to go into the weekly recycling bin.

If they wanted to be empowered characters in a WW2 game, they’d be drawn as aircraft carriers.  Just sayin’.
