All those laid off coders should learn to mine coal.

In my years on this earth, I’ve come to understand a few things. One is that, unfortunately, stanced out cars look cool as hell.

Don’t alert anybody to the Donald being 100% right on this one. Heads would explode.

Excellent! A chance to be pedantic about maritime transportation:

It eased into the water like an old man into a nice warm bath.

Never forget that the 9/11 assholes (I refuse to dignify them with the word *terrorist*) had nothing on them that was illegal to have on an airplane that morning.
