  • "I'm sorry that I keep doing things that make me sorry."

  • In many places, yes. Though "free" comes with the implication that you still tip your server, because something about the way the alcohol laws are written make it so the server is the one "paying" for your drinks. So keep making it worth their while, and they'll keep the drinks flowing.

  • I believe that was Rebecca Corry, not Tig Notaro. I think Tig accused him of something different.

  • How much you wanna bet that Teslas are quietly reporting real-time license plates as they drive along?

  • I legitimately want that shirt.

  • Meta’s AI policy chief who voluntarily enlisted for the IDF in 2009 under a program which enables non-Israeli Jews who aren’t eligible for military conscription to join the Israeli army.

  • Yep, if you set the bar extraordinarily high, then you have to jump extraordinarily high. Bondi's likely doing more harm than good for her cause.

  • There needs to be like, 2 blue pixels outside the red circle. Some cops are dogs, y'know. They're good boys.

  • Jack black has been a negative selling point in movies since that first slop Jumanji remake. He’s just as bad as the Rock or Ryan Reynolds. Business and profits over creating anything of substance or artistic value.

    Something tells me you're not the target demo for Jack Black movies.

  • Here's my "Fuck BofA" story. A long time ago now, I was really tight on cash on a Friday and needed a few things before my next paycheck on Wednesday. I knew how much money I had in my account, and knew what I could afford, and what I couldn't afford. I couldn't afford the gas for my car if I bought my groceries and paid a few other bills, which meant that I would just overdraft the card for the gas. I'd be about $10 short of filling up the tank, so I was okay with paying the $35 overdraft fee for the gas, because I needed it to get to work. I did the math, and I'd be roughly -$50 when it was all said and done.

    Come Monday, I find that I'm at -$500. I look at my account history, and I see that BofA reorganized all my transactions from the weekend, processing them from largest to smallest. So instead of ONE large purchase overdrafting my account and accruing a single overdraft fee, they hit me with like 6 overdraft fees because of all of the smaller, ~$5 purchases I had made that weekend.

    I fought with them for months, telling them that I'd pay the single overdraft fee if they agree to charge me based on the timeline in which I actually made the purchases, but they refused to budge, and eventually closed down the account, and also blacklisted me from opening an account with any major bank again.

    The next year, a law was passed that made it so they can't do that anymore. But the law didn't make them pay back anybody that they already fucked over.

  • NFTs also have legitimate uses. The problem is people treat them like an investment instead of, y'know, a token.

  • Anyone who thinks diet soda doesn't leave a sticky mess has never spilled a diet soda before.

  • I've been in buildings overlooking roads with trucks.

    And to think, all those trucks squandered a perfect opportunity to advertise to you!

  • The existing regulations for headlights are actually quite sufficient, and already cover some of those concerns. The problem is that there's no enforcement of the regulations.

  • Some nazis out there think Trump isn't going fast enough.

  • If I had to guess, it's probably to keep pricing parity across regions and avoid a clusterfuck of import loopholes.
