Thanks for the gold, kind stranger?

That managers name? Elon Musk.

Does “designed in California” count?

The fact our healthcare system is woefully overburdened already?

Eligible voters that chose not to, were they just fine either way?

There’s still the rest of the global electronics market

I don’t think that goes far enough. We need to keep all nouns out!

It will take more than 4 years to move much of anything to the US. Will anyone think it’s worth it?

I’ve got bad news for you about the other primates…

Gosh, now I want ice cream!

A small shop couldn’t complete with a factory for something generic like shovels, it has to be custom stuff. I used to work at a metal shop that did that, till earlier this year, as a design technician on programming the cutter and press break.

My wife worked there, too, but the company hit financial troubles. She found a new job at a shop making ducting and delivering it. I ended up in a bakery for a couple of months.

People that work outdoors are far tougher than me!

I’ve been a food runner, a cashier, store support, retail systems technician, and done tradeshow setup all across the country. There’s a job fair at the Naval Shipyard in town that I’m hoping might have something I could do.

It’s much cheaper to buy the politicians than the whole country.

The Big Lebowski

You know, if they: break into my house, eat my food, kill my livestock, and then when I get back they demand guest gifts, then they have violated the sacred laws of hospitality (ξενία) so badly that they deserve whatever they get!

And he still would have gotten away with it if he hadn’t yelled his name as a taunt on the way out!

Sing! Oh muse, of that resourceful man!

I watched Top Secret! for like the third time. It’s so funny! They don’t make 'em like that any more. Unless they do: in which case, please tell me the title!

Dreading work upgrading in a year or whatever. We use specialist industrial software that works poorly enough on Windows. Only the first five menu options are translated from German, and all the text is larger than the fields so one only sees the top half of the letters.

I didn’t look at the username, so this came across as an underserved Orwell-referencing insult. Lol

Accusing him of being O’Brian or something.

In the UK there are two classes of license. One if you take your test in an automatic, and one that let’s you drive either. So everyone learns in a manual.
