I don’t know. Some people who experience abuse and escape it become far worse abusers when they’re in position to do so.

I used power delete suite last year. Just checked and most of my profile is back. Assholes.

Send the scam a hundred bucks, lose it, sue Google for fraudulent endorsement.

(Yes yes, this wouldn’t work in the real world against Google’s legions of lawyers, but I like the thought exercise)

They’re being pedantic about how the original question was worded in a gotcha attempt. Not worthy of a response.

Tailgating. It’s gonna kill you eventually so let’s streamline the process.

Also fuck you, especially when I’m in a god damned exit lane.

Funny you mentioned that. I was out with my daughter a couple days ago and she got a flat that had to be replaced. She was legitimately worried that Toyota would void her warranty for not buying a tire from the dealership. Nevermind that we were out in rural nothingness with no Toyota dealership to be found.

On the trust thing - every once in a while I’ll go to a concert by myself, stand in the back, and enjoy the moment and remember the old times.

More often than not, three or four young ladies will come up over the course of the evening and start giving me their life stories and their relationship struggles and whatnot.

This isn’t a flirting or drunk thing on either end of the equation. In that moment, they just seem to need somebody to listen to them.

Based on illustrated stories I was fed as a child, I would now like to know if the early Christians ate the dinosaurs after they were finished riding them.

Not gaming console, but the first time I played a CD on my computer in the nineties, I thought I was witnessing the end of technology. Then when Primus released Tales from the Punchbowl on CD-ROM with the interactive stuff, I thought this was surely it. Technology could proceed no further.

Maybe you could just enjoy a nice game of Scrabble instead.

I use a little splash of vinegar. Keeps it nice and clean without the whole chlorine gas part.

(I don’t know if bleach produces chlorine gas. Talking out my ass on that part)

It really feels like all corporations do this.

Then the failed CEO gets another CEO gig because they’ve got “experience”.

It’s easily manipulated. We already have barrier to entry in several professions via required degrees and certifications. Those degrees and certifications require significant time and resources to attain. They can also be skewed to certain demographic a la old school SAT exams.

My own personal experience is the CPA exam. Passing it shows me nothing of one’s accounting abilities. I’ve seen people who pass it and I wonder how they tie their shoelaces in the morning without injuring themselves. I’ve seen others who haven’t passed it but are brilliant accountants.

All that exam tells me is that a person had resources to not work for six to nine months so they could study and pass the exam. That’s it.

But without it, you’re just not gonna go very far in the industry at all.

Then the AICPA keeps making the exam more difficult and whines that there’s a shortage of young talent.

So what “merit” are we going to measure in this hypothetical system?

Ooohhhh. Thanks for the clarification
