Like in the town town or the amusement thing.
Did this dude enslave small-statured orange people by chance?
I don't remember a voice, but maybe! I just remember the tone because we were excited that it worked. Someone came out of the gas station and saw us taking pictures and stuff and they told us that it's there because until recently (and even still) cell coverage was really bad or nonexistent in the area, so a lot of people still used landlines.
My parents got the newspaper when I was young, that's kind of that was. It would just stack up because they rarely ever read it and then eventually we'd burn a bunch in the backyard firepit or use it to start the fireplace.
Wonka vibes intensify
Oh and a really good hospital too it looks like. Because he made chocolate shaped like a drop?? Dang
Looked it up, that school seems very cool. It does sound like you're describing Willy Wonka though.
I would probably have similar difficulties... I can't even tell what they were doing wrong and then suddenly doing right. I do know the basic motion because I've seen it in shows I think, like you spin it around... but I never really thought about how precisely you do that. And you only had a certain amount of time to dial it?? That's crazy.
I will say I would have figured out you need to pick it up first sooner. But even my office phone I dial the number, see it on the little screen, hit send, and then lift up the receiver if I don't want to use speaker phone.
Shit happens bro.
If the consequences of your actions are always prevented by someone for you, you start thinking your actions have no consequences.
Most American comment ever? Lol
OMG 🤣🤣🤣
Edit: is Hershey where they make the chocolate? Didn't realize that was a town and not just a company. I'm learning so much today
He's a self-loathing black republican. And a self-described black nazi. He's like a unicorn to Republicans.
"A good chunk of those sticking by Robinson may only be doing so because he is a Republican."
No. Shit. Lol
I assume you are not popular at parties. 😁
Edit: oh god, you're the dude with 50,000 comments in like a year. Nevermind.
I use one of those services, Optery in my case. Do you think that's just a waste of money (honest question)? It definitely reduced my footprint for simple googling, but I've been wondering if it's really worth the cost.
Scrap it then. It's helpful for everyone, but it especially helps the states that are adamantly and continuously trying to shoot at their own feet, and I'm tired of slapping the gun out of their hands.
Well, it's asymmetrical warfare. It works like that. You want everyone to line up in straight lines across a football field and take turns firing?
I purpose we have all the world's nations choose one competitive video game, and then everyone develops their gaming team, then all potential military disputes are settled by a best of five match of the chosen game.
No wallhax.
It's cheaper for Valve this way, and it costs you more to do anything legally. Because, you know, you'll have to pay legal fees out of your own pocket instead of initiating arbitration on Valve's dime.
Yay, you won!
I was talking to a coworker about these new phishing attacks that send your name and address and sometimes a picture of your house, and I was saying how creepy it is, and they told me that phonebooks were delivered to everyone and used to have like literally everyone in a city listed by last name with their phone number and address. Is that for real?
How is the president elected if the electoral vote ends in a tie or no candidate reaches 270 electoral votes?
As this recently updated article discusses, while extremely unlikely, given the way this timeline is going it's possible the electoral college ends in a tie. Nate Silver projects this as a .3% possibility.
Things to think about:
-
Only about half of the states require their electors to vote for the person that won their state. Who are the electors? Generally no one you know.
-
If there's a tie, the House elects a president and the Senate elects a VP. Sub-consideration: it is the composition of the House and Senate after the November election that makes those determinations.
-
This would all technically be decided on January 6th. And you remember how that went last time.
Regardless, it's highly unlikely this will happen. Still, this would be utter and complete madness. There is literally a non-zero chance we have a Trump/Harris administration. 🤣
Why are knife control laws so strong in the United States as opposed to gun control?
I was realizing it would be nice to have a knife with auto opening for boxes, etc., basically a switch blade or similar, and I found out that they are super illegal in my state (and/or there are length restrictions, or both sides of the blade can't be sharp, etc), but I can go into a sporting goods store and buy a pistol and ammo in under 30min.
Shooting open an Amazon box seems inefficient. What is up with restrictive knife-control laws??

Ok, so obviously no one here has done anything to make this world what it is. Wall Street, corporations, and racist social structures are why the world is how it is, and that is just the truth.
I don't understand why I should feel bad about anything when obviously all of these rich assholes and structures of oppression exist. I didn't make them.
Until the corporations and wealthy people change, why should I feel guilty or bad about things. This literally isn't my fault, they did this, so I just feel like I should be able to live my life and not have to worry about all this. Why can't I?
