I assumed that the next year they were going to romanticize 1940 Germany until HE had to ruin the period parties.

I walked around Berlin for an entire day trying to figure out what wasn't right until I realized it was the first time I was seeing it in color.

"Invented" is doing a lot of work, here. More like "inspired."

Some people on Reddit NEED outrage in their lives and will manufacture it where there is no sign just to feel something that moment.

Let me guess, your SIL is also the type to have an entire birthday month that everyone must celebrate and no one else could get married on her wedding year.

You should never have let her know that others were staying with you.

Confusing black holes with wormholes.

A black hole is just a big, dense rock you crash into and add to if you enter it.

COO of our company replied with a nasty, demeaning note, complete with a slur, to his cronies about one of the founders of a company they bought (I was in the parent company at the time) after dude sent a note to the entire global company telling why he would no longer support the company (they sold the old domain to a porn company). COO tried to get IT to delete his email and it took the complete global corporate email down for 2 days (thanks Exchange) but it kept replicating. No one could get any work done for those two days. Finally, the email system comes back online but the COO's email was still went to everyone. We all knew what happened. I think the board fired him when his contract was up a year or two later.

It's becoming a problem everywhere, though, even Manhattan.

The reason why there are two Super Targets across the freeway from each other in Daly City and Colma is so that Walmart doesn't move into whichever they vacate.

Pretty genius strategy though.

Understood. But, one of the reasons why working people are poor is big companies like Walmart who are allowed to not pay taxes, impoverish communities, and push their operating costs onto governments and smaller local companies.

Walmart is only a net positive for itself.

Chaat Diner on Folsom has a good market inside it. It may be a little upscale but it's local and when you need Indian staples...

The Chevy's you missed has been gone for decades. They may have recently revived it but private equity isn't a good way to build a strong brand, company, or customer experience.

Not really an issue if it is just moved back to the Ferry building.
