I remember when small pickup trucks were everywhere, and yeah sometimes you need to pick up some mulch or edging bricks but you don’t want a daily driver that needs a spotter and the help of a tug boat to park.

I contend that Sbarro isn’t a pizza franchise, it’s an eldritch creature that intrudes into our world by parasitically latching onto malls. Malls get built and opened, and there’s just a Sbarro in the food court somehow. Everyone involved has vague memories of having signed contracts and the like, but if asked they…

Look, if we were really trying to replace them, we’d be asking potential immigrants questions like “Do you fuck your sister and/or daughter on the regular?”, “Can you stretch 10 hours of half-assed work into a 40 hour week and then complain about how hard you’ve got it?” and “Do you swear to instantly turn around and…

“Guns, the cause of and solution to all of life’s problems.”

Technically speaking, all inventory of all products and goods is limited in that there is not an infinite quantity of anything. (except human stupidity) They could have been running 3 shifts for the last month and have a million stocks in the warehouse and they’d still be able to say “Inventory is limited.”

My parents owned a couple of group homes for about 30 years and I worked in the field for many years (I still do a few overnight shifts a month) and yeah, this article really nails it.

When people say “I’m not racist!” this is the cartoon character racist they’re measuring themselves against.

I own it and I’ve never successfully watched it all the way through. I think I’ve tried 3 times and noped the fuck out maybe 20 minutes in every time.

He’s damn lucky nobody decided to jump him from behind and beat the shit out of him just in case.

In other news, Hitler was a hero and martyr because he focused world attention on the dangers of Antisemitism and rampant nationalism and in the end sacrificed his life in order to kill Hitler. 

From one Minnesotan to another may I say Oh yah, that was a corker.

I’ve still got a VHS tape of the butchered version they released in the mid 80s under the title Warriors of the Wind. At the time I was happy to have gotten to see it at all, let alone own a copy however chopped up.

I love Only Yesterday, it’s one of my favorite animated features. I’ve never managed to get more than 20 minutes into Grave of the Fireflies before noping the fuck out. My degree is in WW2 history so I know damn well how few happy endings there were for kids in that situation.

The problem when you’re rushing to respond to an emergency is balancing your speed vs your safety. If you lose it and crash then you’re of no help to anyone, and this officer was over driving his headlights by a lot.

Eh, I’m going to give it a chance both because I loved Animal Crossing and because I have played FTP games that were balanced enough that you didn’t need to spend money if you were willing to spend time.

Man that story took me back to when I was reading Busted Tractors and Rusty Knuckles.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think distracted driving laws can be applied to pedestrians, which is what we’re talking about.

I think both the demographics and geography are working against us. Relativity few kids in the neighborhood and our house is on an odd little dead end with only 5 houses on it, so I suspect that the few who do trick-or-treat our area don’t bother with our street because they don’t want to walk that far out of their…

A couple of years ago I was waiting to cross the street and a guy walked up next to me while texting. He glanced up for a second, didn’t see any cars and just kept walking. I swung my arm out and nearly clotheslined him to stop him from getting taken out by the speeding car that had been hidden by a parked van during…

I play Pokemon Go, which is allegedly the most distracting phone thing ever invented and yet I have no difficulty lowering my arm to my side and fully engaging while crossing the street.
