If you have a problem and you call the cops you now have two problems

Edit: Also, who administered the ketamine? Had they received training in appropriate dosing? Or did some dumb cop just shove a needle into a kid and hope he didn't die.

Wait! Those torrent clients are written with programming languages! We should sue the people who made the programming languages for encouraging piracy!

I discovered yesterday that they no longer sell 16 ounce containers of ricotta cheese. They're all now 15oz or 30oz. So if you have a recipe that needs four cups of cheese you have to either adjust the rest of the recipe down or deal with having a 1/4 cup less cheese than you really need.

Fuck capitalism.

The school board is basically admitting that teaches are gonna get shot as part of their jobs. That’s so fucked up

My sister was on welfare and had a kid around the same time as me. Hers was covered completely by Medicaid.

Mine, because I had a job and health insurance, cost me $20,000. Didn’t finish paying for the kid until her 2nd birthday.

Maybe if they didn’t make the Mustang a goddamned SUV it wouldn’t torch itself trying to haul its fat ass around

Gordon doesn't seem to have a problem with the workers as long as they're doing their jobs. It's usually the managers he gets the most angry with.

I wonder what they see when they watch Star Wars. What do they think the Rebellion is fighting for? Who do they identify with? What parts do they think are cool and for what reasons?

It's a bit like conservative Star Trek fans. I'm not going to gatekeep, but I really wonder what they see in it.

Of course nobody wants to work. That's why we're paid for it.

This was common advice for parents in the 80s and 90s. If someone had to pick me up from school unexpectedly my parents gave them a code word to tell me to let me know it wasn't a child abduction
