Same deal with the word "entitlements". MAGOPs like to throw it around like it's a pejorative term. "Entitlement programs like Social Security..." Bitch, everyone who's paid into those programs is entitled to receiving those benefits because that's what an entitlement is. It's not the same as saying "President Trump feels he is entitled to a free, used 747 because the interior design looks like a whore house with wings."

"Left over-and-under right and pull ends tight, then right loop over-and-under left loop, pull both loops tight" was the way I learned. It's just the entire 'letting go then pulling thru' that broke my brain when I was a little kid. Also, fuck Asics, some of their laces won't stay tied unless you epoxy the knot.
Apropos of nothing, I read a post claiming that the phonetic pronunciation of "ChatGPT" in France translates to "Cat I farted." So I used Google Translates audio and sure enough, "ChatGPT" and "Chat j'ai pété" sound nearly identical when piped through the app's audio feature.
There was a woman in her late 30s in one of my college classes back in 1999. She was a driver for UPS, and had nearly 20 years worth stock options. UPS went public that year, and her stock options were converted to Class A common stock. She decided to hang onto her shares. I found out a couple of years ago that she signed up for a DRIP (Dividend Reinvestment Plan), and will retire a millionaire.
Wait, are you saying that reconciling my checking account while two unrelated trains of thought (accompanied by a random song) run through my head is not something that everyone deals with?\s
