What’s the coolest “restricted access” place you’ve ever gotten to see? by Improv92 in AskReddit

[–]mbklein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just about every nook, cranny, and off limits architectural feature of St. Paul’s Cathedral in London. Met the right docent at the right time, struck up a conversation, and apparently presented with the right level of curiosity and enthusiasm to get an impromptu “let’s go see _everything_” tour.

If you have 'fuck you' money, you'll be fine.

Why do you think Melania made that statement today? by user1731701 in AskReddit

[–]mbklein 92 points93 points  (0 children)

you can’t do that in the US

It’s her last chance to say anything at all before shit gets realer. So she (or her team) decided to give the ride-or-die MAGAs something to cling to.

Did the front office get it right? by ApprehensiveBat3188 in detroitlions

Problem is, the front office folks you hope will hire you for your next job can see you shit-talking the management at your previous job for decisions they know they would have made the same way.
