My impossible hope is that it destroys the Republican party so the Democrats are the conservatives and a new progressive party emerges.

How I wish this were true. The Supreme Court neutered parts of the voting rights act and now the feds must ask for permission from the state. No shit.

Thank you for the real stats and correction.

Since keeping the squirrel was stupidly illegal, he couldn’t get a rabies shot for it at a vet.

Sadly I think the monetary value of a cat is like $15 reimbursed. I imagine a squirrel is worth even less.

The stupid law that makes him unable to legally keep the squirrel is preventing him from taking it to a vet to be vaccinated.

All these mistakes grind my gears, but this one is especially bad. Some of them make sense because of the way the word is pronounced.

Who is out there saying costumers instead of customers? Nobody says it like that.

This article specifically mentioned only changes to the computer hardware, not the cameras.

Good way for people to remember the difference! Even my wife had this one mixed up for a while, and she’s very sensitive to confrontation. So I confronted her and she was angry for a bit but now she says it correctly.

I have a good friend who thinks teetotal means very drunk when it actually means no alcohol consumption whatsoever. I’ve brought it up to him a couple times and he reacts negatively. I haven’t heard him say it since the second time.

I don’t want to be a stick in the mud about these things, I just want people to improve their communication so they are respected and taken seriously.

If I see something like a there/their/they’re mistake I just stop reading the comment. Probably unfair of me but I just disregard the person’s opinion. And before anyone wants to tell me that not everyone speaks English as a first language, it’s actually native speakers who make that mistake. People who learned English later in life generally know the difference.

They’ve sent a lot of weapons compared to their GDP. Probably only behind the US on that ratio.

I had a neighbor, 92 years old, who I was helping out by driving her around and buying stuff for her. Took her to the ER a couple times. She has since passed away.

We rarely talked politics. She watched Fox News just about all day. She asked me why I didn’t like Trump. I kept it simple, I said he lies all the time about everything he speaks about.

Her reply- “When has he ever lied?”

It’s pointless.

So happy you can have legitimate discussion with your family.

We have some dear friends coming over tonight who have been sucked into voting for Trump over immigration. I’m under orders from my wife that I am not to talk politics and ruin the night.

It should be common sense. If you’re here illegally, why would you commit crime that will certainly get you departed if caught? The consequences for undocumented immigrants for even minor crimes are so much higher than for citizens.

Has anyone really been fat even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

So many millions of innocents would be caught up in this. I understand the sentiment but I don’t like this at all.

It’s mostly due to Republicans backing off their “only vote on election day” bullshit because it hurt them last time.

wary=cautious

weary=tired

I think I finally understand, this takes some time for me sometimes. I got lit up by what seems like you had no understanding of alcohol tolerance by saying it’s all dose vs body weight. Since alcohol tolerance was a big part of my life I weighed in as expert counsel.

I’m quite skilled at evading mandatory drug tests if you’d like any tips should you need work here.

I think we have different definitions of tolerance. I enjoy the insight into your Finnish life. I’m US. My grandparents hosted a Finn on foreign exchange while my mom was in university. Even as a child I remember they would exchange letters and talk about her.

I don’t want to argue, I just want to say that weed and alcohol is a wonderful combination. It’s just too bad people decide to try it while drunk. Recipe for a bad night.

Was that a typo for quid? If not what’s ouid?
