I've been in some of those groups. They don't discuss ideas. They discuss people and events, sports, maybe what they did last weekend or plant to do this weekend, talk about their families.

No. That's not a fix. You're still focusing on this being American, while it is pretty universal.

Would you try to shine sneakers?

They're pretty great in cold weather, though. No chapped lips!

I just caught it, too. :( Without traveling and while still being cautious (but not wearing a mask literally everywhere), fully vaccinated, all that.

This is my second time getting it and it is absolutely not milder than it was the first time.

Like he could be if he tried.

Shoe shiners:

1. Are exceedingly rare in the modern era, and
2. Shine shoes. They do not clean sneakers.

This is not an American thing. People around the world are biased against immigrants.

It sounds like you just need to exfoliate when you bathe. You're wiping soap on your skin (presumably), but you need a coarser texture to remove the dead skin cells which build up.

There's no reason to think their military would defect. They get fed. It's peasants who want to defect.

China starting it like that had been my firm suspicion for years, but after the past year or so, I've changed my mind. They still could be the ones to trigger it, but there are so many more players now. Russia could start it (or have already done so without us realizing it yet). Israel could start it. China could start it over island territories that they have no legitimate claim over--oh wait, that includes Taiwan.

Their military is not what North Korea wants to purge. That's where they actually bother to send food.

The military treaty states: “In the event that any one of the two sides is put in a state of war by an armed invasion from an individual state or several states, the other side shall provide military and other assistance with all means in its possession without delay.”

Okay. And that hasn't happened.

The lack of paragraph breaks really sells it.

No, this doesn't apply to actual crimes.

Beetlejuice was never funny, so much as it was fun and weird.

Like hell it isn't. I watched that as a young kid and it's been a favorite ever since.

It is the movie that led to the creation of the PG-13 rating, though.

Other way around for me. I used to find "stupid humor" obnoxious, but now I can appreciate it better.

just so long as they do it after, rather than before, the service is rendered.

Other way around. They can accept the bribe, but only after they have given whatever political favor they sold.

We had a run.
