I don’t care what people say, the most important historical event in my lifetime was the discovery and release of the lost Steely Dan tape containing The Second Arrangement

'This reeks of desperation': Internet mocks 'Donald McDonald' for fast food campaign stunt
  • It is common to omit short-term or less relevant experience from a résumé and to prioritize including jobs that are longer-term or more field specific to what you are applying for. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. If McDonald’s corporate was not directly involved with this stunt, perhaps they’ll clarify if Harris did indeed work for them in order to lessen the negative perception of Trump using their franchise.

  • 'This reeks of desperation': Internet mocks 'Donald McDonald' for fast food campaign stunt
  • Did McDonald’s corporate agree to this political stunt? Or was it just one specific location that agreed for him to come in?

  • Do you prefer ads or paywalls?
  • Ads, because even though they waste my time, I still have my money. Also:

  • It sure looks like Trump watches are breaking copyright law
  • As usual, this probably won’t amount to even so much as a slap on the gold-plated wrist for him

  • I still think about how my Cuban former coworker pronounced Popeye the Sailor as poh-pee-yay

  • Can God create a snail so iron-filled that he himself cannot affect it?
  • I didn’t want be the one to make that joke but I’m glad somebody did

  • Can God create a snail so iron-filled that he himself cannot affect it?
  • I did consider that. Using standard notation, the lowercase “he” as opposed to a capital “He” would mean that Judah is the subject, not God. Nevertheless, the first sentence implies that even with God, Judah was incapable to affect those with iron chariots.

  • Can God create a snail so iron-filled that he himself cannot affect it?

    Referencing Judges 1:19 - “And the Lord was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.”

    And Chrysomallon squamiferum, “the only known extant animal that incorporates iron sulfide into its skeleton (into both its sclerites and into its shell as an exoskeleton)”.

  • Haul from the grand opening of Bricks & Minifigs in Novi, MI

    !

    !

    The first 300 customers received this custom printed torso. Even though the queue to enter stretched to almost behind the building when I got in line and I had to wait 1 1/2 hours after the opening to even enter, I was still able to acquire one of these torsos. To celebrate the opening, there was a giant inflatable(?) minifigure in the parking lot, a live string band outside, free coffee and build-a-minifigure, displays by MichLUG, and Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader cosplayers. So glad to have a B&M nearby (but my wallet won’t be happy about it)

    My submission for R. R. Slugger’s Mechtropolis community build event

    The theme was essentially Lego City, but with mechs and a focus on their power source. I decided to take this prompt and put mechs in the most mundane and impractical City environment possible: office work.

    ! Working mechs need their cup of coffee/motor oil to keep them energized

    ! Being a mech doesn’t make pencil-pushing or working on spreadsheets any more exciting. The computer, of course, is powered by cute animal pictures.

    !

    ! This mechanized mop bucket is powered by… er.. the messes it cleans up.

    ! Mech Corp.’s CEO gives the quarterly reports. His levitating bow tie is powered by money, and the design is meant to evoke Baron Harkonnen’s or Emperor Palpatine’s life support systems.

    I realize I did push the definition of “mech” a bit throughout, but I wanted to go for the absurd.
