And you're so welcome. Americans that actually leave north and central America are a hoot! And if my friendship group is a statistical basis, thre's an 80% chance they decide to just never go back to the US.
I like how a school thinks it's their responsibility to give out punishment here. Like, they think it's in their scope. What other obscure things do they handle in the community with their Letters of Punishment? Maintaining hedge heights? Sentencing criminals? Ensuring fresh undies are worn?
Aye, but in colder temperatures tight denim cools over leaving no air pocket to trap body heat or improve wind resistance. There's no one on this planet that can generate body heat on such a level it can counters the atmosphere, so creating a little atmosphere inside the denim with loose jeans is the next best thing. It's the same concept as single vs double glazed windows.
If you want tight pants in cold climate, need to use high textured material likecorduroy or fleece, otherwise add a thermal base layer under the denim.
I would guess these are the ones that still see themselves as God's chosen people, superior to all others.
That level of nationalism could make neo-Nazis blush. The Abrahamic religion(s) rejected the much older Semitic traditions, but only after plagerising them, right down to the "Genesis" being Enuma Elish—boy, they hated the Babylonians, but they hated everyone, really. So then they whacked it under monotheism, where the one god conveniently chooses the Abrahamic people as the superior ones over the other Semites—what a fucking coincidence! 😲
It's kinda like Nordicisim but instead of it being about some pseudo "Aryan race" or superiority though "social Darwinism", it's tribalism—12 to be exact. It evolved into superiority of ethnicity by divinie will, backed by ancient texts riddled with acts of genocide and regional conquest, excused as righteous divinity, despite no real obvious purposes behind them besides control.
So while they're chanting "Death to Arabs" here and rolling out yet another round of localised ethnic cleansing there, they're somehow avoiding the irony of being the most "antisemitic" of Semites, the Arabs being the largest group within, no less.
Its a level of nationalistic ideology you can't stop overnight, lol. That shit runs deep on so many levels.
I've always rocked regular or baggy. It's a comfort and practicality thing. Having skinny jeans takes away the point of denim being durable and warm, something it needs to be loose for.
That's a rig for moving sick or distressed cows to a barn for medical intervention so they don't die out in a random paddock. They're either strapped underneath or cradled into a net.
Of all the images to use, ironically this one is showcasing human ingenious to save an animal, cause you know that vet treatment is gonna be advanced too.
I wonder what happened to that kid. Dunno if there's ever any mention of him later, but would've been cool if he made a random appearance after Judgmemt Day.
But also, have him in college for fashion design or something, since John disappeared, he hadn't had a bad influence around. J-Day happens and his dreams of dominating the Paris Fashion Show are dashed. Now, with his analogue sewing machine, he must focus on helping The Resistance look snappy when running into battle
It's always this unless you can think of a time you specifically damaged the port. And you'll be surprised how much shit comes out with the tip of a plastic toothpick; how it was somehow actually managing to still charge in the first place lol.
You can of course quit now, but that will mean you're job hunting while unemployed, which is a far worse scenario. You can also just put up with it, but it sounds like that's a shit scenario too.
So the best course of action you can immediately take right now is go window shopping for a new job until you find something you like. Whether it comes by this week or six months from now, you have the luxury of having nothing to lose here and you have the best hand.
Even look at getting a new certification if you feel like it and if you can—ball's in your court. Every time that little bastard undermines you, let it be the fuel that's encouraging you off to greener pastures. Explain that in your exit interview, and remark on how they've come up with an interesting employee retention strategy.
I have a friend that says, "Well shit on my face." whenever something amazingly unbelievable is true. The way they say it so stoically, naturally, like it's normal, it's usually responded to like, "I know right- what?!"
