They’re too busy suing Rockstar over history.

We’re pretty solidly purple. Dems swept last year’s election, but ballot items like taxes for infrastructure and education crashed and burned. Not that Zodiac Jr. would make such a distinction.

I thought I’d enjoy that, but there are some judgy-ass people on there. Don’t get me wrong; there are some truly terrible projects. There’s just also an awful lot of not-my-style-but-I-get-it projects, too.

My wife just started working the front desk for a franchised medical office. Corporate HQ is pushing them to schedule and process more people and sell more product.

Would it be appropriate to say they’re more like slaves than volunteers at this point? It’s illegal for them to stop working, and they have no say in whether or when they get paid next.

I shouldn’t have to learn a second language to place an order when perfectly understandable terminology exists for the exact same things. I’ve never had a problem using “large” instead of “venti,” and if ever I do, that’ll be the last time I go to Starbucks.

I’d play along for a local independent shop or restaurant that I love and frequent regularly.

For-profit healthcare is a crime against humanity.

I don’t joke about Starbucks’ wacky size names, but I also don’t use them. “Small,” “medium,” and “large” are easily translatable to any three-size menu item anywhere.

This. “Those loans are essentially federally guaranteed.” Sure, right up until the point some numbnut like this fucker decides it’s too expensive to provide back pay when they need to put another table made from rain-forest lumber and baby teeth in their office.

Go fuck yourself.

I drove around a tiny Mazda loaner from the mechanic for a while, and it was great.  I’d love a truck like that for my own.

I can think of more than a few candidates.

No one anywhere anytime should be worth a billion dollars or more. At that point, it’s just a super-rich version of Keeping Up With the Joneses.

Apologies if you don’t want feedback like this, but this isn’t much of a deal, at least based on the price of Bubly around me. (Maybe it’s a regional thing?) I can get an 8-pack of a single flavor from the grocery store for $4 at full price, which is the same 50 cents a can as this deal.  They’re often on sale for…

All of this.

So goddamn tired of this “You did terrible things as a teenager” bullshit. No, no I didn’t. I did stupid, embarrassing things, sure, but they never never never involved assault, racism, harassment, or the other shit these entitled little shits keep doing. Fuck ‘em all. May they rot in the hell of their own making.

They are the second-most persecuted group in the world.  (*Old*, upper-class, white males being first, of course.)

Mandy’s story is dumb—so very very dumb—but it at least follows a bit of logic, and it’s clear that no one in the story line actually believes Jimmy’s going to hook up with Mandy.

Five Guys doesn’t have a dollar menu.
