Call the cops, go inside and have a beer.

And you know how good people are with fat fingering things. “E 400 S? No, you’re supposed to be at S 400 E!” Thanks.

It’s not intuitive to anyone, because it’s not an intuitive system.

It’s the same problem I have with addresses in Germany, frequently evens and odds are not determinate of which side of the street things are on and numbers are not divided in any way that offers additional information. You know 115 is next to 116, but…

Disagree about which piece of info is more specific although it may depend where you live. In a mostly grid city the numeric portion of the address corresponds to the distance from a 0,0 point or road in the case of North/South divisions. There are streets that have hundreds of blocks so saying “I live on Washington…

Generally a college degree indicates a higher floor to the level of reading and writing skill that an applicant has, regardless of what their degree is in.

You buy one, and so do some other resellers, and the store only has 50 to begin with you’re pretty much guaranteeing that no one who bought them actually wants them, and everyone who does is paying a 25% fee for “convenience” which they wouldn’t need if you had just stayed out of the situation in the first place.…

Check the employee handbook if there is one, I gave two weeks notice as a courtesy, but more so because it guaranteed me a payout of 200+ hours of paid time off. If that’s not your situation and you don’t have any ties to your bosses then throw up some deuces and walk.

Absolutely correct.

If you’re leaving without another offer lined up and they fire you instead of letting you quit then grab your free paycheck and move on.

I gave the company I worked for 9 months notice for an extended backpacking trip, they assumed I was joking until about two weeks before I left. I ended up back at the same company and gave them two weeks notice when I left again and had people coming out of the woodwork to offer positive references because they…

Your post is why I will never play Dark Souls III. Because you play it and I’m not entirely sure that I can prevent you from ever playing it with me.

The Dutch never had power comparable to the British at the height of their power, or the U.S. or Soviets during the Cold War or currently. They were certainly a power in trade, finance, and culture for a time but to say they ruled the world in the same sense that other powers have is overstating.

Compared to British, French, Spanish, and even Portugese and U.S. colonialism; Dutch colonialism is about as important as Belgian. It happened, but once it ended it’s unsurprisingly forgotten.

If he was Mongolian would you be less of a prick?

It claims to support down-ticket races. Citation needed on actual financial contributions to other races.

Why can’t these lessor races achieve enough money on their own?

Is your argument literally, “He doesn’t fund the machine, without the machine we can’t win”?

Over the last two days I’ve heard more use of the term “downballot” than in the rest of my life and only in Gawker comments. Polito, Kos, fuck, CNN, RT, Fox News.

There seems to be a very dedicated push to call out Sanders for “not supporting the downballot”. Where was this question two months ago and show me who has…

I had my enlistment delayed by months for a non-violent, non-felony, non-conviction that was over a decade old. Apparently different recruitment battalions have different standards.

The worst thing about you bringing this up is than in many cases being pedantic corrects use of language that creates confusion or misstates the point the speaker was trying to make. The maker of the video used “if I do say so myself” as the equivalent of “in my humble opinion,” and while not the long lost traditional…

Hold weigh-in an hour before the fight. No 20lb cutting to make weight, you fight at the weight you fight at, no bullshit.

Problem solved.

No, they just do a little bit of pandering here and there, like the Martian and Gravity both having the Chinese space program play a key role in the film because China only lets a certain number of foreign movies screen and because they are the world’s second largest movie-going population.

I’m not going to comment on…

Having grown up in WI, there is a level of “fuck the cold” that you develop naturally from that long stretch of the year when the first thing that happens when you walk out the door is a cold gust of wind that shreds you right to the bone.

But honestly there’s a lot more going on here, if a girl from a city 90 miles…
