I still see that old comic sketch in my head lmao

I love this! Looking forward to September =)

The people seem to have forgotten that their capitalist overlords can only overlord because of the money we give them and let's be fair, most of those purchases are stupid crap to give us a seratonin boost. All I'm tryin ta say is I also get a seratonin boost every time their stocks crash because of a poor earnings report, so let's all just not buy stuff for awhile.

Instead of No Nut November let's try a No Sales September or something

Invincible.

This was way back but had a basic support call for someone who couldn't get their mouse to work.

After speaking with them for over ten minutes and just being generally confused I cut to the chase and asked, "Ma'am, what are you doing with your mouse right now?"

The answer? She was moving the mouse around on the monitor.

I'd love to see more funny video communities. (Bad drivers, epic fails, etc) I know it's basic, apologies. Sometimes I just need to laugh.

And that's what people don't understand. Every time I warn people of the dictator just waiting to break out of Trump's fat ass, they say he's too stupid to do it.

Then I tell them it doesn't matter... that he's built a whole team of them waiting to take his place with a solid plan to do it.

I think you misunderstood the comment heheh.

The added 'a' implies that there are many plots to sneak arms onto the island. They just happened to foil this one.

Cuba foils a plot to sneak arms onto island from U.S.

ftfy

I've told everyone I meet that it really no longer matters how you feel about the 2nd amendment. You are entitled to your opinion, but you need to go learn how to use them, full stop.

This was my recent problem in Texas. Was also throwing the breaker on the reg.

I recently found an Egg Shen's Six Demon Bag t-shirt and I wear it proudly.

There's all kinds of ways to find your people. This is mine.

I wish I had photoshop skills. Put that face on a harkonnen body ftw

No commentary on the fact that they launched them with a helium leak in the first place? Seriously? They found the problem and scrubbed a launch, only to go forward with it when they couldn't figure it out. WTF man.

Now the helium leak is worse, and you're just gonna give them a pass.

When one of your soldiers is worth ten of theirs, you know you've won this exchange.

I've tried to convince people that if we can have a No Nut November, we ought to be able to put together a No-Sales September or something. These mentally defective executives would absolutely go back to taking care of the customer if this were a practice.

Most of hacking is done by mass effort with maybe a couple percent of people that aren't doing basic things to protect themselves being affected. That couple of percent is enough to keep the hackers flush. (So please, follow basic cybersecurity steps, people.)

The plain truth of the matter, though, is that if a hacker or group of hackers is targeting someone individually for reasons, that person is in real trouble.

This has been a PSA for everyone chasing fame and clout.

Red Dead Redemption 2 enters the chat

A couple of years ago I had a conversation with a Haitian native on this very topic. While I deleted my reddit account and no longer have access to that conversation, the gist was...

Americans don't seem to understand that every time they swoop in to 'save' Haiti, what they are really doing is enforcing the same colonial ideals that landed Haiti in the mess to start with.

There's no politician in play down there that isn't on the take. His opinion was just to leave it alone and let the gangs sort it out. Either they'll pull together a government or the last gang standing will.

His statement had a lot more anger and quite a few expletives.. They're just sick of all of us, y'all.

Honestly I don't know why people wear headphones at all outside. I mean, I get we should all be able to hear our tunes or podcasts or whatever, but unawareness of your surroundings can change your life for the worse very quickly.

I seem to recall an ad for some product in the last couple years that still lets you hear what's around you with clarity while listening, though I can't seem to find it now.

The reviews are iffy on them though. idk, I just don't want noise cancellation until I'm someplace I'm going to be sitting in a long time that has sounds I don't want to hear.
