Save your breath. N’wahs will never understand the value of a good silt strider.

We have the best aristocrats in the world, because of guillotine.

When engaged in conflict, it’s generally inadvisable to offer constructive criticism to an opponent.

Godzilla got pissed and began to attack

But didn’t expect to be blocked by Shaq

That entire album is great.

Angel

Sarah McLachlan

Spend all your time waiting

For that second chance

For a break that would make it okay

There’s always some reason

To feel not good enough

And it’s hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction

Oh a beautiful release

Memories seep from my veins

Let me be empty

Oh and weightless and maybe

I’ll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel

Fly away from here

From this dark cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage

Of your silent reverie

You’re in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line

And everywhere you turn

There’s vultures and thieves at your back

And the storm keeps on twisting

You keep on building the lies

That you make up for all that you lack

It don’t make no difference

Escaping one last time

It’s easier to believe

In this sweet madness

Oh this glorious sadness

That brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel

Fly away from here

From this dark cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage

Of your silent reverie

You’re in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here

You’re in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here

I’d love to see a followup with something like the marshmallow test.

That’s the best guess I’ve heard so far.

It’s just so hilariously wrong, though, if that was their intent.

I think that’s kind of a stretch

I hope the next time someone pays in front of you, it’s for a single, inexpensive item. Also, it’s the slowest person you’ve ever seen and they start paying in cash, come up short, make up the difference in a hand-written, personal cheque. Then they remember they have a coupon. It’s expired. The cashier calls for a manager override. The customer writes another check for the new balance. Before handing it over, the customer remarks the price label looks incorrect. The cashier gets a price check, confirms the new correct price. Another manager override. Another check. The cashier takes up the cash and realizes one of the coins is of a foreign denomination. The manager is over it by now and tries to pay for the item, but the customer is too proud and insists on paying for it themself, remarking they’ve “never taken a handout in their life.” One of the less patient customers behind you jokingly asks if they’d like to round up for charity. Turns out they very much would and that’s about when the pen begins running out of ink, but they’re determined to make it work.

Doge checks? I’m still waiting for the next round of pandemic stimulus checks he promised, which should come any day now.

Excellent call. If you didn’t have a conscience, I’d recommend you seek out work as a marketing executive.
