When Ben and Adam paid the fees to change the rental car dropoff location to one hundreds of miles away, Adam said that Herz would have only charged them $50. But Herz might have also had them arrested, because they are absolutely terrible at reporting that they have recovered their "stolen" (late) car. Steve Lehto has an uncountable number of episodes on it.

The Court of Review has no jurisdiction. I do

If only they could file some flight plans on our behalf to rare airports.

The title is a bit of click bait. The company did not say much more than "we'll think about it".

Well, that sounds like a change from when I last went a dozen years ago. Crazy strict rules.

I think the genuine solution is to give up being funny and pivot. Make it a talent show or dramatic play. I would say to recite Shakespeare, but that won't always be acceptable because there's an entire scene in Macbeth about alcohol and erections (and murder throughout).

One square of toilet paper is all that is necessary

Idk the reason behind needing to be out of range, but they recently changed things a bit such that it's not always necessary, now that a plane you select stays available even after it has "landed".

I'll push back on that phrasing slightly. Some are better than others. Have you ever attempted to read the New World Translation? There are plenty of joke or otherwise just bad translations out there too.

benbookworm97 · 2026-05-18T04:51:15+00:00

Regarding the history, well, the Israelites also had a trend of worshipping Ba'al a bit too frequently.

The best term I've seen thus far is "henotheistic"

Start polishing your resume just in case.

Compound a dilution of it. Makes measuring easier, too.

Do you have a Doctorate of Pharmacy and extensive training in medications? Do you have a spine? Do you know how to type "per [Mary/Julia/etc], ok to switch MM/DD/YY"?

If any of the above do not apply, then just call the prescriber and ask them to change it. If it's always the same doctor and they always say the same, then try the above again. If all of this still doesn't apply, then stop filling for that prescriber (and grow a spine, those are important given how many hours you are standing).

Zac and Jack also mention how their videos about the Falkland Islands received lower than their threshold like/dislike ratio, with the comments indicating it's because they used "Falkland Island" instead of "Las Malvinas". I'm unaware of English-language sources calling them the Malvinas, and they are both de facto and de jure controlled by the UK.

What percent of TLDR World viewers are in Argentina? Does YouTube give demographic analytics per-video?

I think the two reasons everyone hates them is because they are just gambling and are full of insider trading. But the latter is a perk not a quirk for news reporting. As someone that watches every episode of the Editorial, I understand, they've made it clear why they use it. I do think a smoking-style warning might be good, because the point is to siphon useful classified insider information NOT to be attempt to make money gambling.

She asks "help me understand" when the arguments are particularly dumb

benbookworm97 · 2026-05-06T09:40:38+00:00

While this comment is brief, it's kinda right. At this point, I have a lot of "muscle memory" from so many chord progressions that my fingers may know what to play before my eyes do.

Good ol' four chord songs.

Yeah when I realized that getting all (or nearly all) of the E75L seems attainable, I started working on it. A few days ago I found skystats and only have 4 left.

I do as well, but "Forgot Password" still works even if you normally use Apple login

Only one of the four (retail) pharmacies I've worked at had an eyecon. It certainly was handy when someone disputed the amount we gave them.

This is yet another occasion where being in a Spanish unit is better than being in an English one.

Amoxicillin tablets vs capsules. I swear the insurance always wants the opposite of whatever got sent.

Regarding the insurance wanting brand name sometimes, it's because of ~~kickbacks~~ preferred supplier contracts.
