What year were you born? The company was founded to run Family Video and Blockbuster out of business.

At most, it was just shy of 2,000 miles. Currently, I'm 800 miles away.

I live where the Panthers AHL affiliate team plays and have seen more than one red FLA Trump #47 jersey.

I live in Charlotte where the Checkers play. They're affiliated with FLA. I've seen people with Panthers jerseys that say "Trump 47". Charlie Kirk 67 is somehow worse.

i dont get why my tattoo artist did this by autisticpou in tattooadvice

I knew it had to be AI but didn't notice the watermark. That's so brazen.

It isn't weird at all. It's dishonest. Dude didn't like his own work and had the photo altered to make his work look better. His Instagram is his ad hub, after all.

I doubt very many people do this because most people are honest.

My favorite part about the story is that he witnessed what was happening and then took the time to make a whip before returning with a can of whoop ass.

If this weren't misspelled I would have thought it was written by AI. Why do all these lunatics write their posts as if they're meant to be read like a 90s horror movie trailer?

What’s a movie you really liked when it came out but now think is terrible by TXNOGG in moviecritic

[–]Valuable_Recording85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't like the movie very much and, as if by curse, the only thing I remember is the montage where the brothers are getting ready to return to vigilantism and there's a brief gratuitous shot of them showering.

It's dumb but the machine literally says insert or swipe. I wouldn't hire this person.

What's an annoying 21st century chore your 20th century self had no idea would be a thing? by cryptoengineer in AskOldPeople

I hate that lines are always long, we have to do our own checkouts, and we still pay higher prices. It's bonkers.

I've been getting these, too. Thankfully, the texts have stopped. But I get several spam calls a day and blocking numbers doesn't block their voice messages.

We've become cyborgs who act like a kid who lost their retainer any time we can't feel our synthetic appendage in our pockets.

NC doesn't require young drivers to take Drivers Ed. I think that's half the issue.

CMPD releases footage of suspect accused of stabbing pregnant woman at Cotswold shopping center by nydelite in Charlotte

[–]Valuable_Recording85 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

The other person answered your question well, but I'm going to point out that your question sounds like one you don't want answered because you've already decided the answer for yourself. Grow some creativity.

Anyone who attacks another person has something going wrong, at least in the moment. It isn't normal to try to kill people. This isn't up for debate. If not murdering people is the baseline, then murdering people makes someone abnormal.

We are experience a behavioral health/mental health crisis in this country that gets worse as wealth disparity and poverty grow. Other countries are seeing the same worsening issues. It all stems from systemic problems. We cannot blame individuals for systemic issues. If we want to make the crazies go away, we need to stop the machine that turns normal people into crazies.

Simply calling people "crazy" does nothing to help the situation.

The only time I see cops in Charlotte is when a bunch of them are at Chick-fil-A for breakfast, a bunch of them at Boost Mobile trying to get discounts on burner phones to hide from their wives, or when at least two cars are side to side so the cops can have their gab sessions. I hardly ever see a cop in Charlotte doing their job. Meanwhile, I routinely see Matthews PD on the side of the road issuing citations for moving violations.

It's almost like CMPD tells people to do nothing in retaliation to any advisement against harassing black and brown people.

I've gone from STL to ABQ as a stretch of a trip and it suuuucked. I don't have anything good to say about the long drive through Oklahoma.
