The real curse is when, days/weeks afterwards, when the lib's story changes to more accurately reflect reality and they start agreeing with you like they were always right
You know all those cold war movies that depicted the somber and serious chain of events that is necessary to arm and fire a nuclear weapon? Like people in two different rooms have to simultaneously turn keys and then input the codes or whatever. Idk how much of any of that is true, but it is kind of funny to imagine dismantling that many layers of failsafes to then hook your nukes up to an ai that contains the ghost of curtis lemay
I'm the neighbor with a window 2 feet from the snowblower. Do your thing, the snow needs to go. We all have to deal with it, and you didn't make it snow.
Not necessary imo, but if you ever have time or the ability to clear that neighbors snow as well then they can never be mad about the noise ever again.
Speaking of minimal resources for maximum gains, I always liked this one. Two sailors successfully mutiny and divert a ship full of napalm away from the us war effort
Similarly: I recently rediscovered Houston area 2000s hip hop as an adult and it's just the goddamn greatest. It's nice to be able to recontextualize a bunch of the songs I heard as a kid now that I'm old enough to appreciate them. Which, now that I write it out, seems like too much thought to put into getting really high and listening to Paul Wall but
Striking Argentine police officers lynched the police chief who tried to confront them
Did they kill the chief or is this just a difference in translation? I've heard other international (to me, in the us) stories use the word to mean "attacked by mob" as opposed to the us context almost always meaning "killed by mob." Either way, couldn't have happened to a better person I'm sure
Yeah I think it's just one of those things that usaians say that doesn't make sense. Like calling a main dish an entree, or the whole freshman/sophomore/junior/senior thing for school years. Your logic makes sense, we're just bad at naming stuff sometimes
