It's funny, because alabama (or maybe a part of it?) has (had?) the highest density of Ph.D.s in the country because of research and government (I think a NASA facility). I wonder, with our current bullshit about research funding and our government's anti-truth approach to things that don't make companies money, if there is already a notable reduction in educated folks in these already education-barren locations.
But a Marine in bargain-bin decade-old hardware will absolutely walk straight up the barrel of a “less-lethal” loaded rifle and physically manhandle the cop in luxury fascist tech who thinks <40 hours of range time means they’re ready for combat.
You're letting your fantasies escape through your skull holes, comrade. The military is going to point their guns, just as the cops next to them will be, at the people protesting the kidnapping of their neighbors by the gestapo.
I think my dream is more along the lines of the internationale, and many hanging with red necks.
My first thought was that the comic was intentionally riffing on death's door, where you have a raven/crow/black bird (oh god, unidan's coming!) collecting souls.
Aye, get your used hotdogs for free straight from the source!
A match afterwards might help... better obscure your face, license plate, and use cash.
They're already putting in ads on the dash screen in Jeeps... I'd imagine electric cars (well, teslas, anyway) are going to start getting grumpy that radio stations and spotify get so much 'free' ear time, and start putting in their own ads in the speakers that will play when they feel like it.
Keeping my reply of emphatic no here to not clutter up the thread. The closest I ever came was raising a fictional toast when Brian Jacques passed. I downloaded a copy of the recipe book he had written and made some of the otter's hot soup.
I do find it interesting that no one in the thread who answered yes is really trying to explain why they cried. Sure, saying that you cared about their work means that you thought they were important, but how is that enough to cause you to cry? It seems like we'd have to drill down into the idea of parasocial relationships and examine how much these folks have built up the idea that the person they cried over was actually a part of their life.
If you're throwing out the pasta water, you're wasting some very good stock to make the sauce you'll put on said pasta.
I just want to know the evidence for the motorcycles. Is it really a "stockpile" of them, or is he a rich removed and likes motorcycles like jay leno likes cars?
Traffic tickets blur the line between the civil/criminal courts. Especially in my state, where both speeding and the lowest level of assault will put you before the same judge. Since the lowest criminal charges don't carry potential for jail time, even in the effect they have it's difficult to tease out their differences.
seagull is so much better though, because you can charge the client for the proctology AND the gynecology!
Penn recently came out as regretful of his time as a libertarian, didn't he?
That sounds like a really good time.
No, all of ya'll are crazy. The dot of dirt on the window was the aiming device for a laser, and you had to use it to cut all the electrical wires without cutting trees or the poles, because those are wood and it would start a fire.

That just sounds like one step up from what most consider vanilla sex. "Oh baby, I love it, harder, harder!" is about as much of a lie as "I have never consumed one unit of marijuana, sir."
I came in here thinking that they were finally going to cut costs to the bone by getting rid of employees. Make the customer pay if items aren't restocked to perfection, and no more annoying employees who are being forced to ask if you need help. Sort of like those amazon stores that you 'pay' first with your credit card to enter the store and it tracks what you take.
Pure, sweet business profits, eh? Eeeh? I bet we could convince an mba to make that pitch, and could bankrupt a few stores before they realize the idiocy.

Remember that these things are basically ad-hoc devices that snake oil salesmen have convinced government agencies to buy into. The fact that your muscles near the buttocks move is enough for them to get the next level of the MLM, the interviewers, to be convinced that it can detect it.
I enjoy it, but not nearly as much as helluva boss. It was too much like children's programming, where the solution/chekhov's gun/learning-through-song experience didn't feel like it naturally flowed. ::: spoiler spoiler Examples: Ep.1 of helluva, where moxie debates shooting a family, then the show ends with him shooting the chica after being surprised, chased, captured, and had torture intimated before finally getting his demon dick out and acting like one, didn't feel overly contrived. Ep. whatever of hazbin, where maggie has a sing-dance-fight with the angel weapon wrapped feet and suddenly becomes all able to fight, it just felt cheesy. :::
