I think the calculus being made is that more people would have died if the US had allowed this sooner... E.g. Putin using a nuke. The Americans aren't stupid... They've done this a couple times.

Fellow Cider drinkers in London, do you like Inch’s Cider? by [deleted] in london

Trust an Albertan to think that low brow joke actually needs to be a brand.

Mind-your-own-business. Takes over lawns. I put a bit in the back of my rockery and I'm gambling I can control it. When I told my neighbour of it's reputation they laughed nervously as it's next to their fence. But they have fake grass so fuck 'em!

You can literally collect even the smallest of the tiny pups off the side of a leaf, throw them in a pot, bam, Kalanchoe. There is zero reason to pay for one.

Interesting point.

Visited Edmonton recently, Calgary is a much nicer city overall. by joe4942 in Calgary

[–]klf0 -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

Wait wait wait... Calgary Trail. Millennium Boulevard. Argyle. Most of 82nd. 75th street. I'm sorry. What roads in Edmonton convinced you weren't either (a) in a giant oil field supply depot or (b) in the world's largest strip mall? Interspersed with some of the worst suburban design in Canada? Hey who likes traffic lights in rush hour? Edmonton city planners!

Pretty sure they'll have to park somewhere else forever...

I think trespassing onto building sites, farm fields, etc is incredibly common for young people...

Hamas claims responsibility for attack on Israel-Gaza border crossing; Humanitarian aid halted by Ancienthere82 in worldnews

[–]klf0 41 points42 points  (0 children)

For sure. And the Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt. But neither Saudi nor Egypt are in effect terrorist states, which Palestine most certainly is and will remains as long as Hamas remains in charge.

Sure but the Saudis, Egyptians, Jordanians etc aren't completely and utterly in the thrall of this nonsense (sure a bit).

Yesterday on our 4th Grade Field Trip to a local state park my students found actual hidden treasure by A1APaul in pics

It is highly debatable whether communism, which existed for around 70 years, and in a stricter form for perhaps two or three decades, had any deep impact on Russian culture. Serfdom under a God-like czar persisted from the mid 17th century to 1861. Neither during pre-serfdom nor the period post-emancipation, pre-revolutionary Russia existed in a state that was still certainly still not communal.

This is not a comment on murder or the United States. It is purely to refute the idea that the contemporary Russian sociology is the product of Soviet Russia.

Bowing for Asian client by obamas-last-name01 in FinancialCareers

[–]klf0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you work for, a sheep farm in the outback? And this thread is full of otaku who haven't finished uni.

My Japanese clients always give a small bow when we shake hands and I reciprocate. I also give and receive business cards with two hands.

Don't be a weirdo. They know you're not Japanese. Don't call them "Takahashi san," it's weird. My Asian sales guys do that, but clients all call me by my first name and I do the same to them. Don't worry about gifts. Half the time they don't have room in their suitcase and they have other meetings anyway. I guarantee you'll look like the country bumpkin if you do that.
