You don't even know how bad it could be.

There's a memo?

Soooo many safety concerns exist in unimaginable situations only because just a handful of people are aware of them.

I always wanted a novelty 5 inch bay device that was release a small wisp of smoke from the front of the pc case, like mission impossible. It could be a command, or randomized and it would councide with a BSOD or just a power-off command (probably screen off now that I think about it).

I know, the first time someone said it, he wasn't there, and I was like... wait, are we just fucking with Matt? And everyone said no, he is a dad of young kids who does shift work. He drinks a lot of coffee (we all did, the coffee machine was perpetual employee of the month), and he prefers to have it room temperature because he won't feel it burn his mouth. So any time a pot sat on the burner for more than a few hours, we'd dump it into Matt's pot and let it cool.

I always wondered if it fucked up his stomach, because I know stale coffee always gives me heartburn, but we weren't close enough to have those conversations.

I worked with a guy who had neck surgery that severed the nerves to his taste buds. We worked overnight shifts, and we'd save the old coffee for him because he didn't mind the flavor of burnt coffee. There was always a pot of fresh coffee brewing and a pot of stale coffee set aside for Matt.

Touch screens in cars are evidence that the auto industry is actively trying to increase auto accidents.

The crazy part about Fetterman is that he wasn't tied down by the Democratic leadership. They backed McCormick, a pro-business centrist, during the senate primary, and they didn't want him as lieutenant governor before that. He was a progressive wildcard that touted his independence from the party. He was always pro-Israel, but he was also pro-healthcare for all, pro-marijuana legalization, supported human rights and a progressive tax code. His heel-turn has been shocking and baffling, and lost him most of his supporters. Fetterman could be primaried from the left or yhe right, and he will probably lose either way. He could switch parties, but there aren't enough batshit Republicans in PA to make up for his flaws.

Dude misunderstood the assignment.

The thing is, I can relate a bit. I voted for Fetterman, and I have been extremely disappointed by his turnaround.

The difference is, Fetterman is not doing what he said he would do. Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do.

 

Haven't seen any posts all year.

 

“Tonight, Missouri lynched another innocent Black man,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said in a statement.

 

I heard someone say this in a video recipe, followed by way more cheese than you should eat at once. It occurred to me that the phrase means ample, not nutritious.

 

Has this ever happened to you? There's a fly in the house, buzzing around you, so you go to the cabinet to get the swatter. But as soon as you start wielding it, the little bastard disappears. You set it down, and now he's back, taunting you.

Ok so obviously flies don't taunt, but do they have the capacity to recognize, even instinctually, that I'm holding a deadly weapon?
