People being able to find a way around isn’t a good rationale for not putting up roadblocks in the first place. It’s basically the same argument that’s used against gun regulations.

It’s no longer recommended for wound disinfection because it kills healthy cells. Same with hydrogen peroxide.

I could see Mike Rowe being a good villain

At the call center I worked at, our Christmas bonus was a dress shirt with the company logo on it.

My wife wears it when she dyes her hair.

My garage has one for the door opener

Cheap doesn’t mean disposable. I have a bunch of shirts that are a decade old and still fine that I got for less than $3 a piece on clearance.

The markup on most things you buy in the store is very high, sometimes 10x or more. That, combined with the fact that product that isn’t being moved is wasting money, means you’ll occasionally see things marked down drastically just to get rid of it. There’s a good chance that they’re still making a profit on it too.

If you were aware, you wouldn’t be here.

You’re consuming the same thing, water or not. The only risk is choking on it.

You seem to forget that mass shootings are an almost daily occurrence in this country.

Quoting an assassin, then telling a call center worker that they’ll all be next should only ever be taken as a threat.

If she had said, “Your company’s actions might cause someone to commit further violence,” this wouldn’t have been news, but there is no reality where her statement alone should be taken as just an observation.

She intended to make the person on the other end of the line and the people they work with afraid, and that’s a crime.

Those people probably didn’t even directly work for UHC, so it’s not even like she was telling anyone who could remotely do anything about it.

Ah, that. I’m convinced that he wasn’t even wounded. Days later his ear looked perfectly normal.

You wouldn’t notice slight changes over decades. You’d need to do a side by side comparison to say for sure.

If you’ve been eating broccoli throughout the whole selective breeding process, then the flavor change would have been subtle enough that you don’t realize there’s been a change at all. If you ate them side by side, the difference would be noticeable.

It’s not too different from Jim adding nickels to Dwight’s phone, then suddenly removing them.

The only thing I can think of that Trump could do to greatly help humanity is killing himself.

30-40 years is a lot of time to selectively breed vegetables.

Your memory of what something tasted like 30 years ago probably isn’t super accurate. It’s a fact that they’ve been selectively bred over the last few decades to taste better.

You’re omitting the part where she said, “You people are next.” That makes it a terroristic threat.

And Trump is the only president who has ever advocated a complete gun ban.

I think it used to have to be cooked to hell because in the past it legitimately didn’t taste as good as it does now. Selective breeding has taken a lot of bitterness out of many vegetables.

It’s because traditionally bitter vegetables have been selectively bred to taste better. The brussel sprouts and broccoli your parents had were very different than what we have today.
