Ehh you say that but he was dealing with them for a week on his own before he posted and the tweet went viral. During the time he dealt with it on his own, he found the car that they towed and they charged him late fees. The “attack mode” be it from twitter or the reporters is what got corporate to look into it and…

I mean, “turn better than 22 mpg on the highway, cruise the interstates at 80mph plus, haul a voluminous amount in the rear with the seats folded, allow sleeping in the back with the seats slid forward” isn’t a very high bar. Modern Jeeps are good offroad, except where they are too big., I’ll give you that.

I picked up a hitchiker when I lived in Hawai’i ages ago. There was no long road trip involved (obviously), just some putting around in an orange Super Beetle.

Arrghhh. This is worse than the slideshow.

I repeat my previous comment that this whole trip sounds like anything but hell. Frankly, more people should have experiences like this.

I have a strangely hard time with this one. My gut reaction was that food service FOH was worse than customer-facing retail (I never worked non-sales retail). But there’s a catch. I found customer-facing retail to be really, really boring, whereas food service was not, mostly because of the different way you interact…

I’m guessing the difference in cost between what they’ll spend for the ‘22 and how much they can make off the ‘21 is less than they would have spent in nation-wide advertising which is essentially what this is now.

ND - You know how many Changlis I can buy for that money?

Oh yes absolutely, I didn’t mean to make it seem like I was making a “revelation”, just noting it’s a reminder of it.

This was always super apparent to me, however I was blown away by how many people didn’t get it - Trump himself is essentially just a figurehead. That’s why, no matter the incoherent or absurdly offensive statement, the water just rolled off his back. That’s why a NYC millionaire who detests the unwashed masses has…

Important lesson about Trump’s popularity: It isn’t based on what he thought, said or believed, it was based solely because he told ignorant racist bigots what they wanted to hear. The second he stops telling him that, they’ll turn on him.

This is the sort of performance to think about when we look at business models that move away from personal ownership models.

Are you really cool with some petty local manager deciding that you no longer should possess the items you are licensing instead of owning?

Fuck off, you clearly don't live in Minneapolis. Anyone who is truly pro-law enforcement should support the dismantling of MPD, as they’ve been corrupt for decades. The anti-MPD sentiment didn’t come out of nowhere.

Because it’s their fucking job.

I dearly hope the airlines don’t agree with you. Plenty of us adults can drink without punching flight attendants.

He just need to keep promising things to keep stock prices high. That is more important to modern capitalism than actually making physical things that work and people buy. 

To be fair...

Many years ago I was going out with a nurse, and she said they got something like this in the casualty department ever three days or so. If the guy made it to the hospital themselves they always knew because they would usually be wearing a raincoat or a similar long coat, and when told to wait until a nurse could see…

Why did the man put kidney beans in his baby maker?
