the brown stuff is cheese that’s been baked low until it’s uniformly crunchy. Which is great on the edges, for example.

Not so great in the middle.

I’m more worried about how crunchy that pizza looks.

I don’t think pizza is supposed to look like that. I could be wrong, though.

Or… Époisses de Bourgogne…

(This is the cheese falsely stated to be banned on French public transit.)

It’s both super stinky and has a… striking… flavor.

I’m sure his coworkers have meat sandwiches exploding at point blank range all the time, too.

Somebody get the luminol and check for fluids in their office…

Those uniforms are polyester and probably treated with enough teflon/stain block to keep a sharpie from being permanent.

I’ve worn similar hard uniforms (different color, same supplier, probably. There’s only like 3.) and mustard doesn’t take, even if you’re a dolt who lets it set in.

All that to say; there’s no need for him to do more than run it through a normal wash.

This you?

Being called out for a hypocrisy is not hate.

You were literally telling me not to tell be how to drive (which, while I came close, I didn’t actually do,) while literally telling me how to drive.

I understand many states have some form of “slower traffic laws”… and explained why that’s not relevant.

There are many reasons why someone needs to be in the left lane- taking a left-exit, or the left hand fork in a split, or, you know, actually passing people themselves…. Or seeing an eratic driver behind them making it dangerous to get over.

I have to assume that CA law also says something about running people off the road because they’re not going fast enough for you. Generally, I assume everywhere does- for obvious reasons.

Even if you’re right, that doesn’t give you them right to drive recklessly and tailgate people. Which brings me back to the original point I was making: the kind of people who are angry at having to slow down… are unlikely to be polite and civil- they’re already demonstrating harassing behaviors.

IIRC, the felony reckless driving was lowered from +30 to +20, during Covid after it became clear how dangerous people were driving. We saw a massive spike in roadway deaths because suddenly people felt like they could do whatever.

Wow.

I don’t care what “the algorithm “ says, and you’re a hypocritical asshole for telling me not to tell others how to drive while telling me how to drive.

Now to be completely clear: I will always drive in a manner I deem to be safe. Not you. Not the asshole tailgating me because he can’t be bothered to to leave 10 minutes earlier.

And I can assure you: driving 50mph in a residential area is not “safe”. And neither is 90 in a 70 during rush hour. These are both staggeringly dangerous and imo, people who do so are on the level of those who drive drunk.

"What lane your in has nothing to do with speed limit… keep right… "

Left lane.

And your advice is actually somewhat incorrect, depending on the context your in. In more rural areas, sure. In more urban areas… there are dozens of reasons why you need to keep left- including taking a left exit.

Or, you know, like how at that speed your usually passing everyone else…

And just for the record, I don’t know where you are, but here… +20 is considered a felony. it’s incredibly stupid to drive that fast on a highway… never mind not on a highway.

people that go +20 and faster? They’re putting everyone’s lives at risk and statistically it’s only a matter of time before they kill someone. Hopefully something happens to teach them why it’s fucking stupid before it goes that far.

What if we instead imagine the truck drivers politely asking you to move over? What if the ability to communicate freely with other drivers made the experience closer to walking in a crowd. I’m imagining something that allows all vehicles within a certain radius to hear one another so you can communicate with courtesy. I think a lot of road rage stems from our frustrations with our inability to communicate (and be held accountable) by the people around us.

Yeah. No. I don’t know where you are, but when someone is angry at the inconvenience of having to slow down to merely reckless speeds… they’re not going to be capable of civil discourse. If they were capable of civility… they wouldn’t have been angry in the first place.

I absolutely would not want an open channel to everyone around me. The potential for abuse is too high.

Imagine the giant trucks road raging because you’re in the left lane and only going +20 the speed limit. Or the old creeps hitting on teenagers.

And then there’s the privacy concerns. In order to connect to your car-specifically- it has to know your car is there. Which means your car is constantly putting out a beacon. This would be similar to how cell phones work - and are now being used by merchants and advertisers like Walmart to track where you go in stores.

And then there’s the security concerns of people pushing malware.

And then there’s the question of distractions from having to respond to people reaching out or shutting them up or whatever.

most of the energy is actually spent in the first few moments of take off, lol :P (also can you imagine, a decade or two from now having dessicated orange ass falling on you? ew.)

1. there are protests pretty much everywhere. persistent and on going.
2. tearing down the east wing may have been retaliation for no kings 2 in which 7-8 million people turned up across the nation, setting records for turn out- at least as the largest turn out in US history; and I can think of a small handful globally that are larger.
3. going on a general strike means not earning money, means not being able to feed your kids.
4. If you’re wondering why we’re not protesting in DC…The US is the size of the EU. imagine going from Madrid to Amstardam. That’s the same straightline distance from me to DC. and I’m only in Minneapolis- people In LA? that’s more than double. forget people in Hawai’i, or any of the pacific Islanders. Or Alaska. driving, that’s a 16 hour drive, non stop, one way.

It’s easy to sit there and feed into this narrative that americans are just going along with it. We’re not. you don’t hear about it because mainstream media here isn’t covering it. and no, we’re not asking you to come save us. if it comes to it- and right now, it’s looking like it will- we’re going to civil war.

carbon footprint and monetary costs, and it’d take too long… Pits are more effecient, cheaper and quicker.

though, if we’re not worried about that, I’d agree that’d be a good option. Alternatively, I hear ocean gate is trying to do more tours.

if this were true then you’d see runners in Olympics and elsewhere not swinging their arms. also a pubmed.

remind me… do they come with rats or really big spiders with really painful bites?

I’d rather hide ICE. prefferably someplace deep, dark, dank, and with no exits. maybe a few spikes at the bottom? Rats, too.

“…Zetabaytes? no. <mumbles on a hot mic> it was yottabytes”

To your edit… it rather sounds like she is in fact MAGA and doesn’t want to admit to the “why”. there’s really not very many people who were both willing to vote for trump a second time and aren’t MAGA, even if they don’t want to admit it.

from an ethics stand point, I’ll remind you of an old german saying. “If 10 men are sitting at a table with a nazi, you have 11 nazis.” You cannot look at trump and honestly conclude he’s an acceptable (never mind good,) president without also agreeing with his fascist and tyrannical bullshit. if she’s genuinely unhappy with the status quo, she can show it by protesting or something. Until then, she’s still a trump supporter and still part of the problem, and there is zero excuse for not knowing what he was about. he said he was going to do everything that he’s doing. (well. maybe not the ballroom or shitting himself, but details.)

but none of us are the ones you need to be having this conversation with. we can’t decide what’s right here… that’s a personal decision you need to make with your wife.
