That and a set of kneepads.
That and a set of kneepads.
Pity the Dane who vacations to the US and tries one of those bottles of, like, Voltaire’s Furious Anal Cavity Sundering Sauce that’s at every farm stand and gift shop
They and the Dead Kennedys are just constantly raising toasts to each other
I miss the OG Prey. That gravity was fun.
If it’s part of a performance, for example. I guess the point of the debate here is that context matters and that you can do it under very, very specific circumstances.
“Free speech” is very much misunderstood as a form of carte blanche as your example demonstrates. It’s written as “Congress shall make no law…” etc., implying you’re protected only from the federal government, but as time and court cases and legal discourse have shown, there are limits and implications for lower legislatures to model from. The classic hypothetical example is “yelling fire in a crowded theater.” Can you? Yes. Should you? Unless there’s a fire, no, then it could cause panic and injury, and you’d be responsible. That sort of thing. (The US loves a lawsuit).
Tl;dr to answer your question: no.
I have a slightly different but adjacent issue with small businesses in my area, and I’ll give one specific example: There’s a local coffee place near me that has good quality coffee, interesting roasts, etc. that they clearly labor over. Prices are a little more than normal, but that’s fine with me given the product.
What’s beyond frustrating are the hours: Thursday to Saturday from 8 or 9am to 1pm. I can get maybe one coffee a week. I’d love to support you, but I need some hours that you’re actually fucking open.
Too soon…yi.
Anything utilizing Dutch crunch bread is going to be damn good, I used to love a Togo’s #16 (Italian) on that with mayo back when they still had it as a bread option.
Get a good toilet plunger and know how to use it correctly. Most plungers kinda suck.
Looking at a mere picture of it can get a whole squad blitzed for weeks
Bruegel the Elder is pretty neat. Not my favorite period of art, but his little details are so incredible.
I had a friend whose mom worked the Costco returns counter back in the early 2000s and there were some wild stories. For example: a customer brought back a washing machine they had painted green, because they didn’t like how the paint job turned out.
Deckard’s gun in Blade Runner was always my favorite. Somewhat uncanny because it was clearly sci-fi, but retained that hard boiled detective aesthetic, like you misremembered a noir shootout.
If you document that you gave it, you need to have seen them take it. If they’re being stubborn and are competent, document that you educated them on the consequences and that they still refused.
Your commission, Debo: “about two hundred dollars.”
Sadly, I don’t think so. The pandemic-era cash grab solution was software that’s basically spyware, logging keystrokes, mouse movements, taking screenshots, etc. Some clever individuals just taped vibrators to their mice and walked away for breaks. You’re asking middle management to do real work here, ya silly.
“What IS your fascination with my forbidden closet of mysteries?”
Just to specify, the issue is with the Hannah Reyes Morales set (avert your gaze to the children bedazzled with shrapnel instead!)
An interesting case (from a book which I unfortunately can’t remember the name of) from when Jack Benny’s career transitioned from radio to tv: he hated the laugh track, so much so that he demanded it be cut way back and lowered in volume. He also utilized it in an unexpected way: when he had a live audience in certain cases, if a joke or gag got an unexpected big laugh that he didn’t think deserved the reaction, he’d fill in a laugh track with a more muted response.
