Definitely some of them use it that way. It’s clever in a thuggish way because the implication is that the base is just regular, normal folks.

3·7 months agoMy boiled egg slicer. It seemed really frivolous when I bought it, and I probably only use it five or six times a year at best but man if it doesn’t cut down prep time for any salad with boiled egg in it, it also works with avocados!
Personally I think he’s too young to be tried as an adult and it’s obvious that his negligent parents both ignored his cries for help AND encouraged him to use weapons that the law prohibits minors from owning.
But on the other hand, they weren’t the ones that shot up the school, and he does pose a threat to society. If anything this case illustrates how messed up and convoluted the juvenile justice system is.
How is pappcorm formed?
@yamapikariya I feel like there’s a distinction to be made between Americans _visiting _a city and the people that live there.
For instance, when I lived in the SF Bay Area, ques for services locals used were efficient and well-ordered unless jackass tourists were involved. IIRC (it’s been a while), everyone standing on the BART escalators would be on the left, leaving the right half of the escalator for people in a hurry to walk up or down the stairs. But mix in a few American tourists and it was just willy nilly people everywhere.
7:00 AM? All locals, everything is good. 1:00 PM? Good fucking luck.
Tourists also don’t seem to understand or CARE that the city they’re visiting has to run somehow, and they meander around on the sidewalks oblivious to everyone else like they’re in a theme park.
TL;DR - - Americans know how to queue, they just don’t do very well when they’re out of their element in unfamiliar places.
@Fisk400 yeah, there’s a whole Mormon YouTube ecosystem out there with all kinds of content.
Michigan Republicans are extra evil and authoritarian. Thankfully they don’t control the legislature anymore. Or the state Supreme Court. Or the Governorship.

@httpjames Back in the day I liked to dabble in Linux, and I always liked the IT people in the larger firms I worked at so I imagine it’s understanding basics of code, and then a lot of googling for fixes to problems people have already dealt with, composting code with templates and tweaking it to work with the specifics of the job at hand and then taking credit for saving everything because people are dumb.
@FlyingSquid He might tell us to go fuck ourselves!
61·11 months ago@TowardsTheFuture IIRC the SCOTUS struck Biden’s forgiveness down.
@tacosanonymous Moot point part deix: that motherficker and his party will run his campaign from the visitor’s wing of the county jail if they have to.
@DavidGarcia Christians took genetically engineered crocodiles from the pagans and renamed them.
@YoBuckStopsHere There’s nothing picayune about the deep concerns reputable journalists are voicing.
That word comes in play with regard to how so many of us have just turned our eyes away from the threat Trump and his supporters pose because we have to deal with navigating daily life being entwined with these people that in the end are our closest family and friends.
Personally, I put a lot of blame for the US sitting on the fascist precipice as it is on the for-profit media that was so enamored of his f-list celebrity status that they couldn’t help themselves but divert actual political coverage in 2015 to covering this idiot.
In following the spectacle of a candidate like Trump because it gets ratings, they elevated him to legitimacy in the eyes of the public, and gave a platform to the truly evil ideas he espouses.
Sure, a lot of it is drunk Thanksgiving uncle bloviating - - but there aren’t any major “news” outlets covering uncle Bill’s every move and having panel discussions on what he has to say.
It’s all on the media for helping create then elevate this monster, and articles like this trying to exculpate them from what they’ve done are at the bottom line infuriating and insulting.
The media are absolutely incapable of taking responsibility for creating this mess.
@WoodenBleachers But his sources were Norse, primarily, so by extension the argument can be made that the characters should all have Scandinavian accents.
@macattack So when does Trump cut a deal to rat on himself for immunity?
@Chainweasel Remember the January 6 rioters that got into the Senate chamber rifling through senator’s desks? How when they came upon Ted Cruz’s desk they started reading the speech he had left there, got all riled up about it, then one of the rioters stops them and says something to the effect of “this is Ted Cruz - it’s okay. He’s with us”?
From their party.
