  • I honestly thought he was a former WWE performer for a decent amount of time, and by decent I mean I only recently found out that he wasn't a former WWE performer. It was a wild assumption, but at the same time I can also picture him jumping off the ring to give the peoples elbow.

  • I don't like cilantro. I don't hate cilantro. Everyone shouts that it's a genetic thing, so apparently it's not possible that I can have a distaste for a common food while also not thinking it tastes like soap.

    Every time it comes up, somebody wants to feel smug and tell me "well you know..". It's the one food where if you don't like it, it has to be a genetic thing. Maybe I can just not like how it tastes as much as others. Maybe I don't mind it in salsa but don't like it in my soup. Just because I don't mind a finger in my butt doesn't mean I want a dick in my mouth.

  • Along with a lot of people preparing them improperly, people just can't get over the whole fungus thing. I slowly acclimated my wife, and after years of encouragement to try them, mushrooms are now one of her favorite foods, which kind of sucks because now I have to share my mushrooms. All it took was her trying them one single time.

  • It's not really laundering because the income was legal. It's more like a game of Russian roulette blackmail to allow a negotiable tax evasion rate.

    There are a lot of figures left out of the article, but it sounds like a preemptive bailout to handle a company fully prepared to cause the rolling blackouts that would also damage themselves. Plus those credits can most likely be sold and bought like any other commodity, only a bit less regulated. Given a few years of climate change those credits will be extremely valuable. Then again, I'm just a speculative jerk on the worldwide web with an opinion. I could be wrong.

  • I had a similar experience a long time ago in Boston. I worked for a real estate brokerage as an administrative assistant. For anyone that might not know, the Boston real estate market is basically dead unless it's between March and September. I had already been sitting in the office by myself for months, doing absolutely nothing. No calls. Nothing besides an occasional trip to the bank.

    We got so much snow the city shut down. Everyone was told not to drive, all public transport was shut down, people were skiing in the streets. My boss fired me for not going into work. Apparently I should have walked for 3 hours in 2 feet of snow so I could sit in an empty office by myself doing nothing. His office was a block away, in another brokerage he owned, conveniently nestled right underneath his apartment.

  • I got some Google home mini devices and now none of them work to do basically anything of value. Actually I shouldn't say now, they stopped doing the basic functions I wanted them for around 2 years ago.

    Telling it to play a show on TV doesnt work, which is essentially why I bought them. The most they can do now is basic on and off functions. They were constantly going off at random times when no one was talking. They have now become fancy looking paperweights.

    I also have Google TV which is slowly becoming worse and worse. I recently bought my kids Rokus because they had all the same functions as Google but without the microphone remote. They were half the price and are working better than my Google TV.

  • They didn't, but with the amount of publicity it got they probably didn't find it worth the investment since he likely wouldn't be able to work anymore.

    Scientologists poisoned the dog of one of the victims for speaking up. After that dog died the victim got a new dog which was then poisoned. They did what they could to shut her up.

  • Luxury car makers will have a harder time justifying a high price tag when an electric Kia will match their 0-60.

    Mark my words, cars will be the next common planned obselesence product. As soon as the battery doesn't take a charge people will junk it and buy another just like the phone market.

  • Playing in ranks lower than the one you belong in. Smurf players will generally be at least a few ranks higher than your own in skill, but where it gets tricky is sometimes they are intentionally losing so that they don't rank up, winning so they don't lose rank, or they are just trying to record replays to post online.

    Differentiating them from normal players can take extensive experience, but the key to making them quit is dependent on their goal.

    Intentionally losing smurfs: lose any way possible, including forfeits. Score into your own goal or forfeit as soon as you can.

    Winning smurfs: there isn't much you can do besides focusing on saves rather than goals. They want easy wins. They will forfeit a match to get an easy win with someone else.

    Replay smurfs: they don't care if they win or lose. All they care about is making it look like they scored a difficult goal. Quickly move to the goal they are moving towards and do donuts. This shows they are not actually competing against anyone and they won't be able to post their replays. If you're fast enough they will give up quickly.

    If you're on a win streak of matches and suddenly it seems like you can't touch the ball, can't clear the ball, and can't save the ball, you're probably playing against a Smurf.

    I only play casually so I often bait smurfs into giving themselves away. After a while I could tell within the first minute of gameplay. Most of the time, scoring into your own goal will piss them off since "winning smurfs" and "replay smurfs" are often the same people.

    It really is a fun game though, and smurfs don't really become annoying until you've had a decent amount of time in the game.
