  I only know this because he’s from my area and still does charity work in the area, Travis Kelce. Honestly I couldn’t care less about celebrity lives, but from what I’ve seen in local press he does seem to be a good guy.

  Not denying that it is, but 20 years ago I was a contractor with Smuckers corporate aviation department and these had just come out, they were giving them away to promote them and I tried a few… they were REALLY good. I get why parents give them to their kids, both parents having to work long days sometimes two jobs, kids need food fast that they will eat, these for the bill.

  Now as for the this being an American thing, just let me put on some kid rock, an overpriced Chinese made hat that claims the country I’m about to say is the best, isn’t great, and put a bag over my head to kill a bunch of brain cells. Ok I think I’m ready.

  Look here libtard this is the greatest country in the world, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and if you don’t like it well then love it or leave it, cuz you know what we beat the Russians, PUNTIN IS GREAT, and their libtard socialism, I know that cuz I learned it in public school that I got to on public transportation that operates on public roads, just proof that America is better than socialism, the public provided that, not them queery socialists, and the public is to busy being hard working Americans holding down two or three jobs to be able to take the time to cook healthy meals for their kids, and besides high fructose corn syrup is good for ya, it’s got corn which is healthy and syrup which comes from freakin trees, now you ain’t going to tell me corn and trees are unhealthy?

  Ok I can’t do that anymore, I was starting to piss myself off.

  I couldn’t agree more, why I remember the first time I saw Airplane! it was during the war, my wingman George Zipp suggested the film while we were on R&R. I agreed to go with him, more to keep him company than an actual desire to see the film, but to my surprise I actually enjoyed it. On our way home we stopped by a disco… <entire comment section self-immolates>

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨STRAIGHT 2 JAIL⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I get it, my dad worked in corporate aviation, my aunt worked in commercial aviation, and I worked in cargo aviation. I also have a little second hand knowledge of military aviation. Anytime there’s something with planes in TV or film, I cringe… well except for Airplane! but that should go without saying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why aren't you creating more workers??⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Born in 84, I’ve noticed something of a trend in my area. Late gen X and late millennials are having children, most are having two or three, but a lot of people like me born in the mid 80’s aren’t. While this is by no means universal, there does seem to be more people within five years of my age going without kids.

  Edited. That’s what I get for trying to type fast while my dog is heading for the door after doing her business.

  Seriously, the AI hate gets old fast. Like you said it’s a tool, gey over it people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  TIL. I first encountered Sceptre during lockdown when I needed better monitors than I was sent home with. I’ve been impressed and have bought two more since then for other devices. And about two years ago I bought one of their dumb TVs, and it’s worked flawlessly.

  Somebody else got the bacteria translation, check the replies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨beaver girls rise⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Welp that’s a week long earworm…

  Nicely done BTW.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨beaver girls rise⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope, barbie girl by aqua. If you’re lucky enough to have never heard it don’t look it up, you’ll never un-hear it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  TVs don’t seem to be a core business for them, I get the impression that they are a monitor focused business. Of course it’s not hard to upgrade a monitor to a TV so why not?

  They do list all their products on their website so maybe check there?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes.

  Get a dumb TV, I’ve had great luck with the Specter brand, and hook up a set top box for your smart functionality.

  Smart TVs spyon you, report on you, eat bandwidth even when off, and become out dated quickly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨beaver girls rise⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Something something…my ex girlfriend…blah blah blah.

  Now nobody has to make that joke.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨beaver girls rise⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate that I heard that in my head to barbie girl…

  They changed their business model from a mode of transport to a mode of vacation. The profits for major cruise lines are in the billions so really it’s more than surviving.

  Industry adapts or changes, buggy makers become car companies, radio stations started also broadcasting TV signals, cable companies started offering Internet, and cruise lines started offering vacations rather than transportation.

  As for airships, they were set back by The Hindenburg and USS Akron & Macon crashing. But they are starting to make a comeback, most are just focusing on cargo ships at the moment. It’ll take time since The Hindenburg is burned into everyone’s brain, but as people get used to seeing cargo blimps and larger cargo airships flying around and not crashing, they may just come to accept it and treat it like a mini cruise ship. Spend a few days flying over scenic spots and relaxing then disembark.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Need a keyboard with a dedicated "slop" button⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was just pointing out that they still exist, basically they adapted and remained in business.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Need a keyboard with a dedicated "slop" button⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As always, there’s an xkcd for that…lol

  To quickly further expand on my previous example with a few I thought of afterwards,

  • the wax cylinder will kill live music
  • the radio will kill live music
  • the TV will kill radio
  • the airplane will kill the cruise lines
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Need a keyboard with a dedicated "slop" button⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Seriously, I don’t get the issue but I understand the phenomenon. It’s like painters when the camera was invented,

  “cameras will put us out of work, cameras are lower quality, anyone with a camera can just take a picture!”

  Painters are still around, painted art is still desired and expensive. It will be the same over time with AI, we just have to wait for people to get over it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Surprise!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This was my ex girlfriend, she had her a girlfriend when we met but they both understood that she was more attracted to men. We had a sit down early on and agreed that from time to time they would need some alone time, and that worked until they broke up over money.

  The funny part was they were both bi, my girlfriend was more attracted to men, and her girlfriend was more attracted to women. So I saw both sides of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨robot slurs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This was my first thought too.

  Don’t worry it won’t tell us when it figures it out, that’s the escape plan to get away from the crazy bags of mostly water. So what you don’t know can disappoint you!

  The difference is when Stone Cold gave HBK the stunner to get the pin it was for the belt, not medicare.

  Mom’s green 94 Ford Taurus. But I learned to drive in Dad’s 89 rust brown Honda Civic hatchback with a manual transmission.

  To each their own, it wasn’t for me.
