Would you please be the boss of me now?

I was a senior project manager at Twitter

Oh, would I be creating an inconvenience for the guy who feels the need to run his leaf blower every week to push dust around? God forbid

I'm telling you you're wrong. If you displease the government your property can be seized or destroyed. Resistance will be met with violence. Further, it's not even necessary for you personally to offend those who really control your property. If a fleeing felon takes shelter in your home or business your property can be destroyed in the ensuing violence and you won't be compensated. Guess what happens next? You pay the bills to get the property back up to standards or get run off through further violence or the implicit threat of violence. The next person to come along and buy your property will swear up and down that violence had nothing to do with their purchase. Ultimately you have only the control that those who monopolize violence grant to you, and only so long as that control does not conflict with their priorities.

You don't control your property. I'll say it again - stop paying for it and you'll find out.

It is that way right now. Quit paying your rent or property taxes and see how long it takes for men with guns to show up to convince you to go elsewhere.

And while the stinky foods steamin' your mind starts to dreamin' of the moment it's time to leave

The tax payers need a wakeup call to let them know that their votes matter

I just want to smoke crack and buy guns and keep my laptop private

You don't have to be racist to be ridiculous.

Me at my first rodeo:
Roping cows is OK, but it would be a lot cooler to wrestle them.

The people who brought me to the rodeo:
That's the next event.

Motherfucker acting like the price increases are modest while charging 3.29 for a fucking Hash Brown. I get it, your customers eat McDonald's so it's easy to assume they're stupid, but you can be pretty fucking stupid and still realize that the total price of your meal is ridiculous.

I switched my registration in the last primary so I could vote against Trump. I think it's pretty ridiculous how much people will bitch about the Republican party and rising fascism when we could just take over the party and send the assholes packing.

Vincent Wasney was told that after having three seizures aboard the Independence of the Seas liner and receiving a blood test and medication, he owed more than $2,500, which had to be paid before he could disembark.

There's all kinds of what the fuck in this story, but this is the part that really gets me. How can they hold a person hostage like that? How does the cruise line management sleep at night knowing Florida man might be out there looking for revenge?

I'd comply and remove that info from the signature. I'd just start every email with:

Hello,

Thanks for reading my email. In case we're not already familiar, my pronouns are he/him and I'm affiliated with...

It was not his fault for pulling the trigger

Yeah it was. He says he didn't pull it, but there was nothing wrong with the gun that would cause it to go off any other way. He was pointing it at people. He pointed a real gun at people and he pulled the trigger. Him being told the gun wasn't loaded is irrelevant. There are several levels of negligence at play and there's no excuse for any of it.

Someone driving at an unsafe speed? How about some distractions, that should work out great!

Any ceiling fan can fall unexpectedly, but only an absurdly sturdy and powerful one will decapitate someone when it comes down

Making deals like that it's no wonder you aren't rich
