Correct. It's great for dried piss though. Gotta mop it up first, then bleach it down. Don't be stupid, kids.

Such is the way with "magical thinking"

That roommate didn't last long.

Nope. Bleach. Gotta use bleach.

This exactly. It represented such a huge intelligence failure that it's very hard to believe that it wasn't allowed to happen to create an argument for war, that and it kinda rhymes with another (arguably preventable) event in history that was used to create a pretext for war... Pearl harbor. IMHO that was justified though, Nazis being pretty bad and all.

Also tower 7 seemed very sketchy, and I never believed that there was a whole plane's worth of rubble at the Pentagon.

The Patriot act was also a product of that, which if you'll recall is part of what Snowden uncovered.

It's a bit microtransactional but alarm clock extreme for Android is a good solution for me https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alarmclock.xtreme.free

It was a lot better before AVG labs bought it from the original dev though. They discarded all original purchases making it like they never happened. That said, I've bought it twice because it's so good.

In all seriousness, you'd have to clean it very frequently to keep the smell under control. Don't ask how I know.

Honestly, not really all that sarcastic. I work in the tech industry and.... Well we're all getting fucked aren't we?

Just imagine the power that we would have if we all stood together everyone in the help desk all the engineers all the developers...

The Earth stands still if we stand still.

E: ... I'm too much of a coward though.

I learned that what he does actually has a special name. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gish_gallop

The Gish gallop (/ˈɡɪʃ ˈɡæləp/) is a rhetorical technique in which a person in a debate attempts to overwhelm an opponent by presenting an excessive number of arguments, with no regard for their accuracy or strength, with a rapidity that makes it impossible for the opponent to address them in the time available. Gish galloping prioritizes the quantity of the galloper's arguments at the expense of their quality.

So how does one start a Technology and Information workers union. Asking for a friend.

Reminds me that the whole concept of generations is something manufactured of whole cloth and meant to divide us, but more than that, that real people are compassionate and understanding. All that stuff is just fake.

It gives me hope for unity.
