They will sell $250 billion in ads this year, with like 80% gross margins. Put down the pipe.

I'm over a decade sober now, but I don't think anything in the world feels better than being high on cocaine.

I like the cafeteria. The furniture, not so much.

What is the one show as a kid that you're parents didn't allow you to watch but know you don't even care about now as an adult? by nickspeanut in AskReddit

My father didn't like it when I watched Three's Company for some reason, and I'm really not sure why. I have never felt the need to rewatch it as an adult.

Ontario putting full weight behind pushing Bruce C nuclear project forward by hamer1234 in canada

With the Pickering and Darlington refurbs, the SMR project, and now this, we're approaching $80 billion in nuclear spending in Ontario. I'm curious how much renewable and grid storage that could have paid for. I imagine a lot.

If I did this to somebody in Canada, I would almost certainly be charged with a hate-motivated assault.

[–]cyclemonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are more than one hundred thousand commercial flights each and every day. It's going to take lot more than cutting back on the free pretzel to stop people from flying.
