Try “you’re facing your fears today” for an even stronger reaction!

This is my go-to example for “you guys have no idea what is going on”.

I had a cancer removed from my ear and they bandaged it a lot like this? There are two primary means if bandaging an ear and they both look ridiculous. I have no doubt he got them to “make it look like a big deal” but you are not slapping a bandaid on that and calling it a day, right?

Edit - Moh’s surgery dressing is what I’m talking about.

Look, I hate the guy, but that is how you bandage an ear.

People got shot so that parts real.

He could have been nicked or he could have caught it on a sharp point bending down or he could have cut it with a fingernail.

My money is on the fingernail. He’s probably on blood thinners. He’s probably got thin, brittle skin. He probably clawed at his ear when the bullet whizzed by.

He could easily have nicked it. A nick can bleed like crazy and also heal very fast.

From there it’s all spin…

The simplest explanation is probably this given how fast it healed, I guess.

Many people are saying he was strong on revenge.

I’m pretty sure I learned more about the US government growing up in Canada than a lot of US citizens. We had Schoolhouse Rock on tv with our Saturday morning cartoons (I’m old) and studied the US federal government structure for a few weeks in middle school.

It’s crazy.

“Oh, your drunk uncle Mike who has three arson convictions, thinks you turned the family against him, and is in your attached garage with gas and a lighter threatening to burn it down? Don’t worry about him, he’s harmless!”

He probably barks out a “ha” sometimes but joylessly. I mean maybe be if he screwed over some orphans we get a belly laugh?

It will be nice when Trump has Lavrov over, only allows Russian journalists to cover the meeting, and reveals a bunch of classified info. True patriots want that. Right?

This seems performative since you could already do this easily unless the drive was bitlockered and you didn’t have a recovery key.

Celebrity gossip headlines and weather for a place you went on a business trip last year.

As a fellow hunchback, I can confirm this (wish I was joking). :)

There’s a reason I still use lots of email in the age of IM. Permanent records, please. I will email a record of in person convos or chats on stuff like this. I do it politely and professionally, but I do it.

I have had numerous managers tell me there was no time for QA in my storied career. Or documentation. Or backups. Or redundancy. And so on.

• Oh, there’s no way he said it
• Ok, I guess he did but it’s taken out of context
• Looks like it’s not taken out of context but it was one time when they got excited
• Ok, there’s a history of this kind of rhetoric
• Well, no one really believes that stuff
• Ok, this really is a popular opinion
• I just want lower taxes

I purchased bear spray last year. I had to sign a sheet with my name at the “gun counter” (I have thought of it like this as a kid) and it included basic contact info but the person did not verify the info.

I offered to show my ID and was told it would be checked when I paid for the bear spray.

When I picked up the bear spray at the customer service counter to pay, my ID was not checked.

I am not a teenager or someone who “looks like a criminal” but I would have thought they could at least verify my info. Anyway, hopefully this regulation helps.

And the Dems have tons of footage of Trump spouting crazy nonsense.

Everyone thought Biden was too old anyway but some undecided voters think Trump is “smart”.

Also, if you immigratted or your parents did, he just called you or your parents rapists, escaped convicts, mental patients, and terrorists.

Navigated Boston a few times using only a road map (long time ago). My spouse and I always cite it as proof our relationship can handle anything.

I was about 8. My brother and cousins in their late teens (almost certainly stoned) were hanging out with me while our parents enjoyed a few drinks. This was normal at the time. There was even indoor smoking then!

Anyway, I’m reading the D&D Monster Manual I got for Christmas and am telling them about dragons. I explain there are dragons that can shoot out clouds of poisonous gas and accidentally let a fart go that I’d been desperately holding in for a while at that point.

Still the biggest laugh I’ve ever got and it really was an accident.

We were not the kind of family where anyone let on go in public so it added to the hilarity.

All his followers look in the mirror every morning. He is their ego projected. They will feel rage vicariously as if they were the ones being robbed of their dignity and dig in further.
