Bro-ness transcends regional boundaries. It's an insular yet simultaneously inclusive collection of habits, 'cause hold my beer I'ma 'splain, like, dude, bros ain't a thing it's a way of life.

So now is our opportunity to launch a surprise first strike?

No bullshit I've had this magnificent safety instruction on a prior flight. Love people who can enjoy their gigs.

Those, from my understanding, we're likely associated with the TEHCM I now break on a continual basis thanks to a poly-etch defect that's undetectable at test owing to an ESD diode network built into the silicon. Whoops.

Don't tell Sam you linked to Pando.
