Some people speculated on this from day 1 when he wasn't posing for photos with his "bullet wound."

My guess is these were underperforming problem employees that they wanted to drop. This provided an easy out to skip a PIP and severance. A company the size of wells fargo there are going to be way more people than 14 using a jiggler. If it were a blanket 1-strike, it would be a lot more folks gone.

Totally on your page, but what you're describing sounds kinda like times square.

This scares the hell out of me. Too much risk of damage. Heat, weight, and time.

Because it was another number. No need to be obtuse.

I mean... If it's ever below freezing, it's by definition "warmer in the fridge"

A massage never killed anyone, unlike chiropracty. Just get a massage.

If any of you follow Jeff Jackson for his razor sharp explanation of what's going on in the House, this act will be solely responsible for removing him from the House.

People don't like it because:

  1. It's the new thing. If alcohol were introduced today it would be banned in every country on earth. People tolerate Facebook, Twitter, Insta because that's what's been around. They all do the same thing, but TikTok is new and scary.
  2. Short form video is scary! It's a new form of entertainment, and old people don't like new forms of entertainment. See: every newly introduced form of entertainment in history, books included.
  3. They are misinformed about what data a mobile application can and cannot do, and the level of security built into both iOS and Android. Rest "assured", they are collecting as much data as they can -- just like every app creator on the planet. What they aren't doing is capturing mic data while you're sleeping (that's not how microphones in phones work), stealing your passwords from your clipboard (OS's notify users about clipboard paste)
  4. China bad. This primes people to consider negative press about it with a less skeptical eye, feeding the above points. (Don't misconstrue me as being pro-China, I'm not, and that's not what this post is about.)

Not to downplay the quality of the movies, but one is a biopic and one is a toy adaptation; one could easily throw in "finally an original movie that's not a superhero, sequel, biopic, or toy adaptation." They're good movies. Good movies can come in any form, superheroes, sequels, and remakes included.

Is the "tried that in a small town" some new smoothmind virus? Just started seeing it like 2 days ago.

To be fair, a light slap on the wrist is a lot more impactful with such tiny hands.
