Honestly I was surprised it wasn't pre-wired with explosives or some way to ensure rapid disassembly in case of invasion.

Seems like a no-brainer, but I'm sure that would be prohibitively expensive due to shelf life and stability of explosives, and maintainence for any mechanically coupled systems.

Hindsight is usually 20/20

nearly kills her

Based on the picture of the broken square section, I think that might be a bit of a stretch...

But "person avoids injury at final destination screening" doesn't have that same allure.

Have you been to the upper peninsula? It's lame.

(it's not, I would like to live there and I'm even from ohio)

Typical Michigan history erasing.

Michigan started it.

I'm telling mom!

Ohio resident for grade school, they did it at 4 different school districts across every grade.

Can't speak for anyone else.

Or teacher didn't even see this, handed it to a high school student and said "grade this stack of papers"

I had that happen several times in science classes in 3rd-8th grade. Eventually I started arguing with the teachers in class, and boy did they not like being corrected.

Sorry Ms Avery, you not knowing that "Pb" is the abbreviation of the Latin word "plumbum", where we also get "plumbing" from due to its use in piping in rome, doesn't mean I got the answer wrong. To her credit, she looked it up and changed my grade before the end of class.

Ms hoschouli from 7th grade can get fucked though, a parallel circuit increases amperage load, not voltage load. I knew more about electronics in 7th grade than a college graduate who teaches science class, which in hindsight isn't that impressive considering it was general science and not electronics specific... But in 7th grade, as far as I was concerned I was hot shit for knowing more than the teacher, and getting detention for calling her out in the middle of class. Never got the grade changed and I only got out of detention because my parents called the school.

I once got in trouble with my math teacher for saying "well if we're just making things up, then sure [I cheated on a math test while sitting in the front of class where the teacher can see but I was using some kind of hidden code on my t-shirt that was a bunch of Shakespearean insults] . But what about all that Crack you were doing in your car this morning?"

Apparently my "making things up"was a slightly more serious than his. I stand by it. If we're making shit up, we're making shit up.

For the record, this geometry teacher was convinced I was cheating in class because I didn't do homework. Homework was 5% of the final grade for the year according to his syllabus, I hated homework, so I figured as long as I didn't suck at the rest of the class, I could do 0 homework and pass. I was right, passed with a 94%

I genuinely wonder if all the people I've had tell me Obama and Biden are going to ban all guns/they're coming for our guns are going to have a moment of self reflection when the fascists in power come for their guns.

Or is it going to be a "only white people with no unnatural hair coloring and presenting as their birth cirtificate sex are allowed to have guns"

Freshly boiled pasta is the best kind.

If you're brown and nearby when some white folk get into it, you have a very high chance of "fitting a description" and either being arrested anyway or shot "while reaching for a gun" when you put your hands in the air.

Read the story and be pissed by how any news outlet phrases it in any way other than "this man was murdered in a pre-meditated manner after prolonged harassment from psychotic neighbors who previously murdered their dog"

Rorschach was right about one thing, people like this shouldn't get to go to jail. Rabid Animals get put down.

What do you fucking do about a community like that

I'm not allowed to tell you directly on .world, but turnabout is fair play.

A hypothetical response when someone complains that they can't use a certain soap over a mildly flowery scent.

"you are so beautiful...."

incredulous stare

"to me..."

monstrous roar from the other side of the mall

Well I know what I'm watching tonight.... No joke my sister and I used to watch that multiple times a week as teens

"can we get you anything?"

"ice cream..."

"okay, what flavor?"

"it doesn't matter... It's for my ass"

I don't see why the US should be informed?

There shouldn't be any US equipment in the area, why bother including anyone who doesn't need to know?

You're right, you clearly don't have anything of substance to say.

"stealing art for my/my favorite techbro's computer project should be legal and since it's not yet, I'll go around completely misrepresenting arguments in order to make them seem like they are the ones who are out-of-touch"

Joke's on you I'm going to send this to my wife knowing fully well that she's going to want garlic bread.

Homemade Alfredo, here we come!

you begin manufacturing explosives in order to demolish all future trolley tracks, trying to ensure nobody is ever forced to choose again. Misunderstanding your purpose, you are arrested, and the people cheer that a terrorist has been brought to justice. Your pleas fall on deaf ears and people insist the trolleys are good, the trolleys are necessary.

True, it's not a great plan. But it's not your fault. You can never move on from... the trolley problem.
