Thank you oh so much, this means a lot, it really does. Grenada just made it onto the list.

Thanks, everyone, for all the advice! I have to say, it's pretty friggin' cool to post a question like this and have so many people chime in :)

I'll keep you in the loop on where I end up, and what I end up doing!

Lucky for him they aren't nearly as stringent with the background checks if you want to be president of the country.

Too sleepy to eat..

Why is he going to a McDonald's to pretend to be working for a couple of minutes, what is that supposed to prove, or disprove? The theatre called politics in the US can be quite baffling.

I once saw a tiger cub, at a zoo, get entangled in some branches. At first it was just a little annoyed, as it was trying to free itself. It was cute to watch and you'd be forgiven for wishing you could've given it a hand. When it couldn't immediately get itself free it began sneering, released its claws and dug into those branches like a chainsaw, pieces of wood flying everywhere.

It was impressive to see how much power, and fury, that cute little thing was packing.

Of course they do, it's vital for them, to ensure the US remains a country where they can legally exploit the population and keep taxes to a minimum.

I think he is a very good candidate.. He cares only about himself, and so he lies and cheats. He says he grabs women by the pussy, I like that.

That woman, apparently.

Those first two things sound like bugs, to me, and something that could be quite easily fixed by a software update, I would think.

As for the qi charger, in my experience these are very often crap/slow in cars. I don't know why that is.

I'd like to be your friend.

Ah, how I love good news on a Monday..

It boggles the mind that this sack of shit is even in the running.

He has the charisma of a wet sponge (and the appearance of someone you'd think twice before buying a used car from), he can hardly string together a sentence (let alone hold a speech), hi lies, he commits fraud, he's a convicted felon..

That's hardly brushing the surface, yet people go "fuck yeah, this guy should run the country".

Jeebuz fuckin christ.. what's happening?

Unless you got home schooled by Heinrich Himmler, there's no excuse. You can't possibly offer your political support to such a scumbag.

Probably a result of turning wrenches since I was first able, but that rule, to me, feels akin to "up the stairs take you up, down the stairs take you down".

Like, to the next town over, or even further?

It was almost certainly taken off of an old film camera.

I would think so, almost all digital cameras take color photos. /s

It's not really a lot of hoops to jump through, and this seems to be standard practice by DHL, UPS, FedEx and others, over here.

I actually appreciate getting the options on delivery day. E.g. I usually get to choose what collection point they leave the package at (so I can pick a spot I pass by going home from work or whatever), or if I want them to come back the next day, or have it dropped off at my office (not always an option, kinda seems to depend on how stressful a day the driver is having). I certainly prefer it to risk having the package stolen, then reporting, waiting for a new delivery..

Of course, if the package is large, heavy or otherwise unwieldy it might be a pain not having it delivered directly to the door, but if I'm expecting such a thing I try to be home to accept delivery.

TIL I learned of porter buddy, thanks.

Yeah, same up here in Norway. If I'm not home they will offer to leave the package at a collection point, or drop it off at my place of work. As far as I know, they're not allowed to just leave it at my door step and hope for the best.

"But, we did it anyway, and now I've almost forgotten all about it! Neat, eh?"

Yes please. I'll admit I don't know very much about this guy or the quality of his work, but it feels like he's making noises about the wrong thing, again and again.
