Is it choosing to remain single, or is it open to dating. I might know just the three-frame to set it up with.

I did something similar. I wasn't getting screwed like you, but I was being told I wasn't getting work done when I was the only actual employee in my department with a couple of contract people who didn't have access to our systems. This is what I did today, this is what still needs doing, these are the upcoming deadlines, my plan is to do this tomorrow, do you want me to pivot. Solved the complaints issue. Copied my boss' boss for good measure. My boss wasn't a bad boss, he just was told to get stuff done and I was the only one who could do it (I have skills and certifications he doesn't have). So, this took the pressure off of everyone.

Actually, it was pretty neat when they did it on Mythbusters. It's true I wouldn't want it in my house unless it was encased, but still neat.

Are there no state-level crimes to charge them with?

U.S. sample size of 1 here. I don't have any Christmas decorations up yet, but we have begun updating gift lists, purchasing some gifts (I monitor sales to find the actually decent ones for the 3-4 months prior, but don't usually buy unless it's really good), and we've watched a couple of Christmas-ish movies (Rise of the Guardians and Alien X-mas). We'll put up our decorations the weekend after Thanksgiving. Oh, and I keep an eye out for Christmas decorations we like for a decent price. Haven't found any yet. Did fine a decent projector for half off. I suspect it's really more like $40 off, but that's decent. Haven't bought it yet, though.

Fuck that. Celery is good with either peanut butter or cream cheese on it, or dipped in dressing. Stephen Miller would only be good dipped in lava.

Well, we're glad to have you with us!

And everyone is right!

I had a friend who was very mildly homophobic, but used homophobic slurs and insults regularly just as insults. My best friend (and roommate at the time) is gay. I wasn't going to let my best friend feel less than for no good reason. So, I told the friend he needed to cut it out or our friendship was done. He didn't have a lot of friends. So, I knew it was impactful to lose me, but lose me he did because he wouldn't stop.

The reputation carried them for a while because they still sell older games, plus the occasional good new game.

 

I've seen others recently, but the two I saw today are a Capital One commercial and a Progressive commercial.

In the first, the Capital One guy is talking to a couple of people. He is asked what he does for fun, and he does not know what to say. Then, they cut to him getting ready to sleep at the bank.

Another is the Progressive commercial where Flo talks with another woman about vacations. The other woman doesn't seem to know what a vacation is. Flo begins describing what one is. In the end, she says she doesn't really know, gives up, and says she's never been on one either.

I was thinking about them while driving and came to the title thought.
