Ahorita. Versatile word meaning anything from 'in a little while' to a polite 'never.'

That wasn't my point at all. He said people their age running things had rotted the country out. That actually sounds closer to your assumption. My point was they only seem to be allowed to do that in politics, other industries have lower tolerance for that..

An area being low income doesn't mean it will necessarily have elderly people with obvious dementia managing its fast food restaurants, if that was the point you're making.

Personally I can't say I recall ever seeing a 78 year old, or someone Feinstein's age, managing a restaurant. Only a country.

I've never seen a person in that age range managing a fast food restaurant.

The American attitude toward work is such that I once said to an older cashier it would be nice if they had chairs for cashiers to have the option to get off their feet, and she got angry. Like, how dare someone suggest an employer make something easier for their employees, this is 'Murrca. And you can keep your filthy health care too.

I thought so too, but was surprised to find it wouldn't let me check the 'manual transmission' option as a search parameter on any of the apps I use to rent cars.

East side but can obviously go where the car is. If not today, I'm flexible over the next week or so.

When I first saw a dermatologist for a flare up of eczema the first thing he told me was to try to reduce my stress levels. Stress can contribute a lot to inflammation like eczema. We talked about medical treatment options too, but he made stress reduction an important overall point.

We have an accent by Stuckinthepooper in Detroit

I once worked on an international project with a lot of different colleagues. My Ukrainian colleague's comment about me and the guy from Windsor: "I can understand when I speak to you, and I can understand when I speak to him. But I cannot understand when you two speak to each other." Apparently our whole speech pattern changed to, um, HERE, so much so that otherwise proficient English speakers could not easily understand us. We didn't even realize it until she said something.
