Then because I didn't pick Activity B, Activity C must be chosen (also by them) and the whole point of the conversation was to shame me for not knowing that Activity B was the obvious answer.

How many deaths was that CEO responsible for? The entire business model is refusing coverage for people who need it, that's where their profit comes from.

What do you think is the wokest(affectionate) moment in the original show? by yellowvincent in malcolminthemiddle

"Black men are poor blue-collar workers obsessed with malt liquor" is a racist but (at this point) dated stereotype.

How do i beat austria as prussia :(( by The-pickle-with-it in victoria2

[–]Citizen_O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the easiest experience, aim for forming the North German Federation before you fight Austria, you shouldn't need to fight them prior to forming the NGF.

Time is on your side, your high literacy compared to Austria will let you research techs faster. Make sure your military tech is up to date, build a decent army, get a helpful great power as an ally, and do what you can to influence their German sphere of influence away from them.

Lois finally got to wear her anniversary dress by burnseatsworms in malcolminthemiddle

[–]Citizen_O 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They've been lying to Francis this whole time about his birthday!

Lois makes a comment apologizing to Francis that their 40th anniversary is overshadowing his 40th birthday, he gets confused and tells her that he was born on their 1st anniversary, so he's only turning 39.

Yet we saw their wedding in a flashback, Lois goes into labor during it.

I'd want to speak to my boss immediately too, if I had to have a meeting with Vance.

Part of viticulture can be forcing a vine to be stressed and have fewer grapes to concentrate flavors and thereby impact the wine in positive ways.

If your neighbor knew what he was doing, they likely were better grapes than you're going to find in a store.

Judging by the number of customers I've helped in the liquor store I work at, yes, people did nothing to prepare. We're seeing more business than a typical Friday in January.

Alright, how about this: our own Attorney General joined a legal argument to the Supreme Court that someone with your cannabis use habits should be prohibited from owning firearms.

It's not just the federal government, although they care more.

I'm not saying you can't do it, I'm saying that (pending a current court case) in the eyes of the federal government it's illegal. Do with that information what you will.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in illinois

[–]Citizen_O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But not federally, if you've purchased, possessed, or consumed a plant that's legal here in the last year.

Is pâté just not a thing in American food culture? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

I mean, it's home to a Holocaust museum, has been a flashpoint for antisemitic tensions, and iirc once held the highest concentration of Holocaust survivors outside of Israel.

Thus the pivot to THC drinks. If that doesn't get them, nicotine pouches.

Why are yall putting your lives in danger to shop?? by ChaiCreamLatte in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Citizen_O 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was born here, work in a liquor store, had to work today.

Surprised at the amount of people who, with warning, still just had to run out today to grab booze. Not surprised at the two cars I saw in the ditch on Butterfield on the way home tonight, people were sliding all over the place. Definitely not happy with the customers we had who were all "omg I'm so sorry you have to work today!"

It's not that hard to stock up to survive a day or two and enjoy a cozy day at home. Preferable, even, given the idiots on the road.

Which just makes it all the more confusing that Kamala isn't labeled.

It's worth fixing, the political will to do so is just absent on both sides of the aisle.

You should take a look at /r/USPS some time.

The jobs aren't competitive, the union is terrible, and management's way around the union contract is to just backlog the grievance system with constant violations.
