That’s the movie that introduced me to Elliot Smith!

I just put myself in that scenario and had the thought “man, what if she’s flustered about something else, and having a rough day in general, then I go and swoop in and basically accuse her of being poor in public. She’d feel terrible and I will have made her day worse.”

You would have walked out of there feeling like shit in two of the three ways that could have gone. Don’t beat yourself up over it; clearly you’re empathetic and care about people. That tells me you DO act when it’s appropriate and you do want to be a positive force in this world. Congratulations! The world is better with you in it

No, but maybe I’ll find out when you hand me your driver’s license, registration, and proof of insurance like I asked…

I live in a city where most popular bands tour, but I definitely would travel internationally to see a show just to make a week out of it. I was considering going to RAtM when they were in Europe, because I couldn’t get good seats in the US. I definitely would have gone if I could have gotten better seats in Europe. Alas, couldn’t get good seats there either

I haven’t seen it a million times (3-4, maybe?), but the word “flibbertigibbet” lives in my head rent free

Oooodelolly!

I watched the Challenger disaster on the wheelie TV cart

They were DEFINITELY there last night when I looked. Maybe he’s getting some backlash and has pulled some products off his site

The signs are manufactured by a “conservative street artist” on a web store called “unsavory agents.” There’s a lot of really gross shit there

In addition, if you see a video like this, I prefer to select “don’t recommend channel”

Is it? It could be. I thought I remembered it as a standalone book from when I was a kid. That was MANY moons ago, so I could be wrong

Another “not Aesop’s fables” answer:

The story of the dog carrying a bone who looks in the water, and sees the reflection of another dog with a bone. He barks at this dog to try to take for himself a second bone, and in doing so, loses his own in the water. Trying to get more than you deserve or taking what others have leaves you with nothing of your own.

Also, we have multiple subs. Revealing one temporarily does not compromise our deterrence

I think what the person you’re replying to meant was something like:

“These subs are known to exist by Russia, and their particular sound signatures may NOT be known to Russia. So, having one appear in a known location, Russia may now be able to link sounds previously unknown to them to this type of sound. With this new information, Russia may now be able to locate these types of subs, when that was previously not possible.”

I’m not sure if they’re right about this or not, so the issue may be moot if Russia already had this information. I do, based on my military experience, generally tend to agree about the OPSEC component of their statement though.

You gotta pump those numbers up

Journalism is hard and probably gets fewer views.

Oh, this comment makes more sense now

Agreed. We should just post memes here instead.

But memes are hard too, so maybe we should just post whatever other easy stuff we can find.
