JK Rowling discovered girls in Hogwarts experimenting with this and duly expelled them from the entire series.

I've been on a jury once. In that particular case, there were a couple jurors who took it upon themselves to police anybody bringing up anything that we were instructed to disregard. You may not think twelve people is a lot, but I'm my experience, it was twelve wildly different personalities which was frustrating, but ultimately beneficial in coming to a unanimous decision.

Further, they sent us out of the courtroom several times during the trial so opposing counsels could fight over what could and couldn't be entered into evidence for us to see.

Get fuckt Donnie

Have you ever met a gay dude who makes a ton of money?

I know several, and let me tell you that money changes people regardless of which tab they prefer to insert into which slot. They become everything that any other rich person becomes except that they like to fuck their own kind.

At that level of wealth, so far, the money supersedes the sexual preference because, you know, money. The sex stuff is, so far, just seen as eccentric.

PayPal was so far ahead of the curve. I've actively avoided using them for a long because of something that happened many years ago. I sense that young people see it as a boomer app.

PayPal could've been the big bank of the Internet and they fucked it up.

Just looked through some of that stuff. Holy hell, it would be easier to be seen as without sin through the eyes of an angry old testament God than it would be to be seen as worthy of dating from that crowd. And that's fine, because I would want less than zero to do with it.

(Assuming it's real. Who knows? Could be a bunch of neckbeards cosplaying, but if I've learned anything in life, it's that there are shitty shitty men in this world, and that there are equally shitty shitty women in this world)

I've seen those things once in my life while on a boat in the Philippines. Really quite something to experience in person.

You can use them as a crude compass next time you find yourself unexpectedly in the wilderness.

He probably hates sex because it requires him to show up and actually perform.

The shareholders will not like this concept

Well sure, but if you spend the ten thousand, will you get sixty thousand of free labor production in return like you will with the incarcerated option? We've got to look at net profit, people!

They're an agency, so no.

I'm still waiting for the tax lawyers to figure out that this will apply to the IRS as well. I've seen a couple rumblings about it on attorney websites already.

I stopped drinking soda years ago, but I never actively chose to do so. Somehow, it just happened. Definitely to my benefit, but I've long been perplexed how it happened.

Touche

I never got into that in my teen years because we had Jolt Cola - branded as "all the sugar and twice the caffeine"

Edit: Now I wonder if people were going into bars back then and ordering a Jack and Jolt, thereby far preceding the Red Bull and vodka.

I know quite a few people who have serious Coke addictions. They will simply refuse to drink any other brand and they go through Trumpian levels of the stuff daily. I don't know what it is about this particular brand. I've never met an RC head, but Coke heads are a dime a dozen, unlike the ten bucks a dozen their drug of choice charges.

She died first

Shitty Boeing aside, how are they eating up there? I don't know anything about space station food logistics, but if a planned week has turned into ten weeks, surely there must be a resource strain.

Edit: Google search says they can regularly send up unmanned supply ships.

There were also weird sizes and brands like Clan Kangaroo Scotch Whisky in the seven quart bottle, invariably sold at a drug store next to the Dutch Master cigars.

I never did any real research with microfiche, but I sure did love going through old newspapers. I especially loved all the old advertisements.
