Yo momma’s so fat, she sat on a binary tree and squashed it into a linked list in O(1) time.

My favorite take I heard today is that Kid Rock is just another name for Epstein’s Island.

It’s called empathy my dude. Put yourself in the shoes of an athlete who has maybe one chance in a lifetime to perform on a global stage what they’ve been training their whole life for. They’re not harming anyone by competing, and their withdrawal from the event would accomplish absolutely nothing.

Sweet. All the astronauts working for NASA should probably quit too.

I’m not super well versed on how this works, but many of them depend on sponsorship deals to be able to train and compete and the level they do. Those deals probably depend on them at least appearing pro-USA.

We can all talk about how we’d like the protest what’s going on in this country, but asking someone to give up the opportunity to compete on a global stage at the thing they’ve trained literally their whole life to do is a very tall order.

Yeah, it would have to be defined as a one-sided limit.

You forgot science enthusiasts who are desperately trying to impress people.

Back in 2010, one of the earliest games for the iPad was Scrabble. Each person needed their own iPhone to hold their tiles and they could flick them off their phone onto the board which was the iPad. It was mocked because nobody wanted to shell out $3000 for hardware to play a $25 board game.

Negative. I am a meat popsicle.

I think it’s different if you consider ads as a way to maintain the status quo.

Like, there’s an ad I keep seeing on TV where 25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago plays as parents struggle to keep up with the parenting responsibilities of their toddlers. It’s an ad for Amazon. And thank god for Amazon for being available to help these parents.

And like…everybody knows about Amazon. Nobody is going to suddenly sign up for a Prime account after seeing this ad. However, parents or expecting parents who already have Prime accounts are going to relate to the people in the ad and not even consider other options for their parenting needs.

Maybe a very specific example, and their are certainly ads just telling you to buy chicken nuggets, but I’m seeing it more and more.

Edit: Or hell, look at detergents. Do you really think Tide has innovated anything in the past 30 years?

Suuuubtle. Love it.

If a block of lead were a light year thick, it would have a 50% chance if blocking a neutrino.

(Something I’ve heard. Can’t look it up now)

Gemini evolved into a seal.

well in a way, they’re competing

I think they were going to reimburse me after.

I had a company back in 2012 refuse to present even a range of compensation before they flew me 1200 miles to an interview except to say that it “wasn’t bad.”

I didn’t take the interview.

The pioneers used to ride these babies for miles!

So that’s why I can’t get laid.
