Or they will end up charged by the FTC later down the road.


My heart really goes out to these people who so briefly had a taste of democracy before being suddenly and dramatically subjugated under a junta.



“So when we were faced with destruction as a nation after Pearl Harbor…"

The US was never faced with destruction during World War II.




I’m from the US but lived in Japan for a while. They have squirrels, but they’re not very common. They went nuts when they would see a squirrel. At least where I was (Tohoku).


Sorry I wasn’t clear. I was proud of the Dutch because of the limited police response.


And I was so proud of the Dutch just yesterday.


Nice to see that at least France is doing what it can to stand up for the right the thing, in both Israel and Ukraine.





Janitorial service, cleaning toilets and worse.


I was going to say toilets/indoor plumbing. Necessary for survival? Maybe not. Best convenience ever invented? Probably.


I wouldn’t have survived childhood without glasses in a pre-modern era.


At first, I read this as The Man Who Fell to Earth, and I thought it was such a great choice. Who doesn’t want to see some Bowie cock?

Also, love Cube. A classic.





Bad writing. USFK isn’t defined once before being used as an initialism throughout the article. As one might guess, it stands for United States Forces Korea.

Doubt Korea has too much say on how those forces are used.


I have always thought similarly. If you are aiming for buddhahood–an escape for yourself–then that is selfish. We should all, ideally, aim to be bodhisattva.





I’m not sure about your response. I didn’t suggest it wasn’t an honest question.


They’re very different, in fact. A fish spatula is almost completely flat, slightly curved, and has a thin, long, slotted metal body. It’s fantastic for picking up delicate or stuck-on foods, not just fish.




I would consider it an indictment in a fine dining establishment, yes. Anywhere else, no. Of course, you shouldn’t literally be waving your arms around. Just a slight lift of the hand while looking at them.


I don’t know how people can stand putting an item under the seat in front of them. I’m not even tall and I sure as hell need that space for my feet.


Lucky. I stopped checking bags when the baggage handlers stole from my locked suitcase.


A wave of the hand is absolutely not rude or an indictment, especially these days when nearly every restaurant is understaffed. It’s the polite way to get the server’s attention.



OP said they want to eat a little healthier, not a little less healthily.


Udon broth is also available premade and is very quick and easy to make from scratch.


Puberty must have been extra weird for him.

He was paralyzed from the neck down. Puberty was probably mostly a squeaky voice and inconvenient growth spurt.
