  • Possible plot point to align with the impending zombie apocalypse?

  • This guy has just, out in the open, bought himself into a position of power. This is the type of shit you see in a movie. Next thing you know, he'll be scowling at a local detective reminding him of his diplomatic immunity.

  • I once had a co-worker like this named Andrew. One morning, while he scrambled to fill any moments of silence, I told him “Andrew, silence is ok sometimes” and went back to my work. He was significantly less annoying to work with afterwards.

    I probably came off as a bit of a dick, though it wasn’t my intention.

  • “Just as the founding fathers would have wanted” - Some gun nut probably.

  • Another soulless billionaire kisses the ring.

  • I hate how much I laughed at this. I’m never growing up.

  • Man, stock buybacks are such a scam and should go back to being illegal. It’s just market manipulation and saps resources away from everything else, especially wages.

  • The problem is that half of the state is probably cheering the move,

  • My wife is so excited for the snack wrap to come back.

  • It’s his kid, man. I can’t blame him.

  • I have the same issue. Brought it in and they cleaned the heck out of it. It’s better feeling though not perfect. I’ll bring it in under warranty another time because they said the process to replace the port takes like two hours and I didn’t have that time when I went in.

  • It upsets me too but I don’t think being angry about it will change anything. I’d rather take a moment to learn a lesson from her because I’m not sure I’d be so publicly level headed about it.

    She’s on a big stage and this is a big moment for a community of marginalized people. She needs to be strong, not just for herself, but the people who find a reflection of themselves in her. Her ability to stay calm in this silly storm is admirable.

  • I don’t know much about her, but she’s clearly handling this situation with an incredible amount of class. I respect the heck out of her for that.

  • If they voted then they aren’t illegally here?

  • I don’t think you understand how determined the buyers are once they’ve been convinced by the scammer. I used to work for a major retailer that had signs at the register AND messages that the customer had to accept on the signature pad confirming they didn’t believe they were being scammed before going through with the purchase.

    Additionally, my team was instructed to call me over any time they had a customer who they felt was being scammed to try to talk to them. Sometimes, I was successful, but other times I wasn’t. There is still one guy who goes in weekly to buy $500 of various gift cards for his overseas “girlfriend” on WhatsApp. I tried talking to him multiple times and he became increasingly angry at the conversation. I just had to accept I couldn’t help him.

  • There’s also a good chance many or all of the hostages are dead.

  • I think this encapsulates NYC to perfection

  • I thought you need $401k to retire.
