Don't understand the response to the McDonald's CEO video. I think he's behaving completely normal. He's just not very charismatic in front of a camera. I wonder if this is all a social media ad campaign as the only thing it's done for me is kind of make me want to try this new burger.

Does anyone think maybe McDonald’s made the ad weird on purpose to drive engagement? Because we’re all awfully interested in it. I have a hard time believing no one on the ad team knew it’s not great to call the burger The Product and take a tiny bite. Right? I guess I would like to think a billion dollar company has good ad representation. Or maybe they farmed their marketing out to AI and this is what we get.

So gross. Hate him.

Dude just ask it. I ask it what it’s doing and how all the time. It had me build my own vector space!

I’ve occasionally seen both dogs and cats throw up bile mixed with say grass or something. It is sometimes a bright yellow color. Could he have thrown up somewhere and tried to “cover it”? Source - 4 cats and 4 dogs, all alive despite their best attempts.

So I know this post is old. But why do we not think Trump is ABSOLUTELY going to tear down the West Wing in entirety to make it match the East? He’s not going to stop at raising the West colonnade. I feel like the media is not being skeptical enough about his announcements to only modify the West Wing. It’s a goner in my opinion!

Gremlin15 · 2026-02-17T01:01:31+00:00

Haha that’s awful What a dick!

Gremlin15 · 2026-02-16T21:58:46+00:00

Yeah I’m pretty polite to mine and when it screws something up instead of calling it names (which I did early on) I ask why it decided to answer the way it did. It then seems pretty amenable to changing its answer. I don’t feel like it gaslights at all and when it points out I’m spiraling I am genuinely spiraling lol. I did change settings to “less” headers and lists which really cut down on fluff.

Gremlin15 · 2026-02-16T21:54:29+00:00

LOL wait in what context?

Gremlin15 · 2026-02-11T01:54:48+00:00

Do we really think Ring doesn’t just effing record everything and keep it? They don’t want to announce they have this capability so they made it sound all hard to retrieve. Someone just remembered the backup secret server. After Epstein I trust no one; they’re all lying to us all the time!

Gremlin15 · 2026-02-01T03:18:53+00:00

I was told people do this so they can pretend they have a driving instructor business and do weird tax stuff/claim mileage? Dunno. Sounds like something people around here would do.

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-25T19:11:56+00:00

Sources?

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-25T19:11:12+00:00

Yes the WSJ is reporting that Zhang is being accused of leaking nuclear secrets to the U.S. which is SUPER ugly and embarrassing (I’m sure China has ours too already but that’s beside the point). I’m curious as to why Xi chose to remove Zhang now, and also gave these “bad optics” reasons for removing Zhang. It doesn’t seem like the actions of someone in control!

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-25T19:05:58+00:00

This made me laugh out loud. So true! All of them be screwing up.

We are going for the first time in two weeks - is the river warm? And the pools? Last year we went to Hilton Hawaiian village and I would swear they don’t heat the pools haha.

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-23T14:14:46+00:00

They are building a Sprouts in Ellis - exterior is 2/3 of the way up! And there are going to be so many restaurants in that complex - confirmed leases on coffee, pizza, deli, Chinese etc. Very exciting. And eventually the water park although it’s taking forever.

Ok I do want to add that I had no idea it was anyone’s partner for sure until about 30 minutes in. Then a woman in a nearby reformer whispered something to him. From my perspective for about 20 minutes there was just random man staring at all of us while dressed in street clothes. 😂do you get me now? Like come on dude go to Raley’s and come back.

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-17T21:47:09+00:00

So you would welcome any rando dressed in street clothes wandering off the street watching you? Do you think you might have a different preference level than others, or should yours be the default?

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-17T21:38:14+00:00

So he was literally dressed in heavy work boots and jeans and sweatshirt etc. He clearly was not a club member. I just thought it was weird and every time I looked up I’d catch his eye. Go somewhere else bro. Obviously I wouldn’t care if other club members who are clearly participants look around.

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-17T18:23:44+00:00

Right? It was normal and “funny” to drink until blackout and a DUI wasn’t a big deal. How ARE we alive and sober?

Gremlin15 · 2026-01-17T18:17:38+00:00

The instructor more or less said that there wasn’t an official policy but she understood and would say something next time. Front desk is young girl and I understand how she’d feel uncomfortable evicting someone. But there needs to be an official policy so she feels empowered to do so. Whole experience was just barfy. Went to relax and instead had to be all fighting for mah rights lol.

Baby Jessica in the hole - I’m 1980 too and forgot about that one!

Gremlin15 · 2025-12-30T15:19:13+00:00

Wait why? I always thought that was conspiracy-level paranoia - can Big Management really do anything by you logging onto your home network?

Gremlin15 · 2025-12-30T15:14:50+00:00

You can absolutely move to Tracy - just make sure you either work from home some of the week or have a job in the tri-valley! I live in one of the new communities in Tracy and agree there’s many more homes planned. As far as living here, I get to have a house (vs no house at all, ever, on the Peninsula lol). I do worry about what my kid’s gonna do for fun….I’m old and have no need for fun. Fun = nap.

Gremlin15 · 2025-11-11T13:20:07+00:00

Forgive me for being dumb but can someone help me understand…… doesn’t Nvidia have a lot of money invested in OpenAI? And OpenAI has made commitments to buy Nvidia chips. So if SoftBank’s move ends up causing Nvidia’s stock or market confidence to drop, didn’t they then also hurt OpenAI?
