Imagine not leaving your weapons clear and safe, pointing downrange

Spiner does a great Stewart impersonation, I love it every time
- Comment on Settle a debate can potato's and noodles go together and taste great with sauce and other things? (I say it can) However my mother says two starches should never be cooked because it's too much. 2 weeks ago:
Rice pilaf would like a word with your starch-deprived mother
- Comment on The function of your product is WHAT?? 2 weeks ago:
No way that air pistol is shooting anything other than plastic BBs, but that does look like an Asherman chest seal for a sucking chest wound
- Comment on Indie Dev Says Game Refunded 55,000 Times Via Steam Loophole 2 weeks ago:
If it’s good enough that I finished it I’m gonna let the creator keep the money (and pay close attention to the reviews next time, because I agree that less than 2 hours is a little short for that amount of entertainment) and make myself feel better by treating it like a donation to a good cause.

Those were the sorts of stories I heard about unions when I was growing up. Want to clean up a mess? Sorry, union rules say you have to wait for another guy to get here to do it.
I always felt like unions just got in the way of doing things logically or quickly, but I’m pretty sure those stories and comments were intended to do that. Nowadays I know better, and I agree with you: we need unions now more than ever.
- Comment on If I went to a mechanic for my car and told them I had a problem with the aft starboard tire would they think I'm a dork? 4 weeks ago:
How far abaft of the beam? How far from centerline? Is that first or second deck?
- Comment on drones ruin all the fun for US 1 month ago:
Why would he be sad? I thought that was the point. What better way to distract from the other distractions?
- Comment on Is there anything still on comparable to Steven Colbert? 2 months ago:
(oops, it’s John, not Jon)
That makes sense and I’ve felt the same with a few bits they’ve done recently, and they harp on things a little too long sometimes (Lyndon Johnson’s nuts, for example), but I still think he/the writers make compelling arguments and present them in interesting ways.
It’s amusing and informative, perfect for laugh-crying about the state of the world.
- Comment on Is there anything still on comparable to Steven Colbert? 2 months ago:
And Last Week Tonight with Jon Oliver.
For the late shows I like Kimmel well enough, but he just doesn’t have the same charisma as Colbert.

There’s no profit in it, is my cynical answer that I wouldn’t be surprised to find is actually true.

Saying it out loud you’d have to reduce it, right? But my real problem with the message is how do you know when to sell the bitcoin?

- Comment on don't tell the cable company about the splitter 7 months ago:
Sounds like they split the signal after the cable box. The original Duplicate Screen.
- Comment on No it won’t 7 months ago:
I think plasma should just be one of the commonly accepted Christmas decorations, you know? Quit fucking around with those other, lamer states of matter and just give the people what they want.
- Comment on Is there a uBlock Origin filter or extension for LLM slop in search results 7 months ago:
Maybe it’s just my algorithm but I don’t think I’ve been presented any slop videos. Surely not long videos, right?
- Comment on Why don't compasses have just two Cardinal directions (North, East, -North, -East)? 7 months ago:
Walking backward is just walking negatively forward by another name

Can you believe they lip synched on live TV!? What fraudsters!
- Comment on 9 months ago:
I’ve been looking into this recently because The Algorithm wanted me to (I don’t always do what The Algorithm wants, but sometimes it’s really fucking spot-on so maybe I’m just institutionalized) and I simply don’t see why this is really any different from anything else available.
Is it really that much better? Is it the same thing just with better execution? As we’ve seen time and again, popular doesn’t always mean good.
- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 9 months ago:
Knowing very little about the national guard in particular, I would argue that the standards are there but the enforcement isn’t.
In the Navy, at least, physical training was never a serious priority except for more specialized commands. The standards were identical, but the commands where PT was emphasized were the only places where a majority of people were fit. There’s way more to it than just standards.
- Comment on Okay now what if I show you this image and tell you it's an actual conversation between me and my brother? 9 months ago:
“Real name” is kind of a funny concept in this scenario
- Comment on Being a noob in heist games 9 months ago:
They’re adding multiplayer, actually. Lots of fun to be had when everything can be destroyed. The workshop mods introduce a lot of new weapons, levels, and vehicles, too.
- Comment on bro who tf invented the SPOON 💀 like u see a puddle and thought “yeah imma scoop that” 10 months ago:
In that case maybe the single chopstick was the first utensil…? I feel like a two-pronged stick would be ridiculed at first, much the way heliocentrism was. Imagine being the Copernicus of stick technology, lol
- Comment on WATER! 10 months ago:
I went to a restaurant in Dallas near the stadiums where asking for “water, please” got us a glass bottle of whatever rich-people water they served.
Everything was expensive and the food was super whatever. It’s called Soy Cowboy, if anybody’s curious.

A weird form of arrogant elitism
- Comment on Jonathan Frakes Surprised ‘Strange New Worlds’ Star Trek Spoof Was Controversial; Talks Directing ‘Academy’ And More 11 months ago:
Just finished the musical episode in Season 2, which was quite silly, but it’s all so fun that it’s hard to criticize. This is a show that knows what it is and revels in it.
