I don’t understand this. The older I get, the more angry I get at the system and want to tear it down 🤔

Whoa. So, I was bored and looked into the etymology of this, and it’s way harder to answer than I’d have thought.

The etymology of the word “stooge” is unknown, but it was first used in 1913 as a noun. The earliest known use of the verb “stooge” was in 1939, in the writing of detective novelist Raymond Chandler.

In its first known use in 1913, the word was defined as “stage assistant, actor who assists a comedian.” So, while it looks like it predates the Stooges by a decade, they really redefined the word as we know it now.

Right? All of us are doing okay. Times are tough, but we’ll make it through.

At the end of the day, I just want to see my grandpa happy and want him to have no regrets. Thankfully, he is comfortably retired and has been for like 15 years, but who knows how much longer he has. I hope he ends up doing it, but I think he feels too guilty.

Surprisingly, Teslas actually do. You have to access a hidden menu, but it’s well documented and easy to do.

My grandpa wants to go to space in his lifetime, but doesn’t want to spend everything he’s been saving for my us. I’m like…dude. You worked your ass off all this time. Go to fucking space. I think it’d be badass.

Missing the message because you hate the messenger.

Okay then

…heroes in a half-shell* 😋

Who will just be replaced with another. I mean, we’re all here talking about it, but ultimately, nothing will change.

Edit to add, nothing will change without pushback from the people. Original comment was very defeatist, and change can happen, but not by sitting here with our thumbs up our asses. At least we’re talking about it, I guess.

It’s a different jacket entirely though. The backpack strap is also a different design.

A wild Pirate Software appears!

And yes, I prefer universal healthcare to this BS.

Oh, by leaps and bounds. I think most Americans would absolutely agree with you, if they weren’t poisoned by propaganda and “Obama care bad.”

You know, I’ve had my gripes with them, but they have not once denied a claim for me. I even had a fully covered precautionary MRI because a couple of my family members have died suddenly from aneurysms in the past.

I’m positive UHC would have said “LOL that sucks. Good luck tho!”

I think that stereotype is also partially driven by immigration selection pressures: those that were able to immigrate would statistically skew towards higher income earners or those that have had higher education. The parents themselves are going to hold higher expectations of their kids due to their own achievements.

Sorry to hear about your friend. I’m not sure to what degree you knew him, but that’s horrible :(

Check out your old reddit account. I poisoned my data, too, then deleted it, but they restored it completely like the bastards they are. I deleted my 2F too, so it’s there forever now.

He’s probably experiencing the unimaginable levels of stress he himself once imposed on many people with his platform in the past. Good riddance.

A bear doesn’t tell you it shits in the woods.

I think we’re looking too deep into what is really meant to be a simple thought experiment. Entertaining the discussion, however, if the occurrence of a monkey to type, say Hamlet, on the first try, is not physiologically possible for the mind and body of a monkey, it will never happen on the first try by any monkey even with infinite monkeys as it is not within the realm of possibilities. Infinity just means every possible outcome will occur, but anything outside of the realm of possibilities is still impossible and won’t happen no matter how many instances are attempted.

Well shucks, I guess it should just be made fully open source, the code distributed, and the business dissolved. Womp wooomp.
