BONK!

“That’s someone’s property! You’re hurting the wrong people!”

I avoid restaurants that require tipping. When I do have to tip, I give way too much if the service was good. IMO, good service is to not try to talk to me too much, and to be responsive to what I need done (refilling drinks, taking additional requests). Bonus tip if I know they’re overworked and handling it well.

15% floor. Throw an additional $10 sometimes. Always direct to the worker because these places steal tips. Also I tip cooks sometimes.

But I avoid going to these restaurants.

What if they just work 30 hour weeks for twice as many weeks?

Nope. Flat earthers.

The firmament!

Sawdust pills? What’s actually in it?

Oh, I call it leaping. Quantum leap. It’s been almost 10 years. Decided to settle down and live out this life.

Police can lie and say you had a weapon.

Too broke to boycott. So I boycott everything, every day. Is it working yet?

The Human Claymore

Lockpicking is not a crime!

Chainmail. Serves as a faraday cage. Also defends against physical attacks.

JerryRigEverything, LockpickingLawyer, and Chef John from Foodwishes.com are absolute ear candy

I worked in a Costa del Mar warehouse once. The generic shades were $20, and right next to the brand name shades ($200). The brand name might have had some invisible enhancement, but they looked exactly the same to me besides the logo embossed into them. Both were polarized and mirrored exactly the same way.

What I’m saying is this: buy cheap generic ones. If you must have that logo, glue one on or something. I don’t understand brand worship.

She might get mad if you tell her this, but maybe you want some time to yourself. It’s what I usually want on my birthday.

The problem is, where do we start? We’ve been, er, “taking the L” for so long, when are we going to start giving the L?

Thank you for leading me to find this book. I will enjoy reading it.

“I don’t personally understand it, therefore God did it” (Argument from Ignorance, or God of the Gaps fallacy)

I hear this with regard to evolution, chemistry, bacteria, weather. They don’t know how something works, that’s proof enough for them. Eventually they say “then how was the universe created? There had to have been a creator!” (First cause argument) Or “The eye is so complicated, it had to be designed” (Watchmaker Fallacy)

I used to listen to The Atheist Experience podcast, but it got repetitive hearing the same arguments from religious people, over and over. I also didn’t like how mean the hosts could get sometimes, but I understand their frustration…
