Better yet, there’s sites that have filters you can set. So you set the wattage filter to 60w and then…. no fucking results. But if you clear the filter, there’s lots of results, because it turns out their entire inventory has a wattage of “n/a”.
My apartment complex has a Facebook group that serves the same purpose. It’s kind of a mess.
Last week someone posted their security camera footage showing some homeless guy (in his-vis) casing their patio. The neighborhood watch quickly confirmed this scumbag had been poking around the property for days. A police report was created. People went out looking for him.
A couple hours later, the maintenance guy replies to the thread saying the guy is a contractor fixing damaged decks. There are signs up everywhere about it. People got email notifications. And yet they still found a way to create a panic and also waste the cops’ time.
Any time there’s a “popular” thread in that group, it’s always something like that.
My advice is to never join any online community with your neighbors. It’ll just scare you by how fucking stupid the average person is.
What if I watched the entire porn spoof?
Never have I ever seen Titanic.
They couldn’t figure out how to write the AI prompt for that.
Ok but hear me out.
We acquired 20 new logos this month!
Sounds right, and I’m sure worried. They rolled through Kyiv in 3 days because they’re so prepared!
„They hate us for our freedom!“ eh?
I don’t think companies understand that the words “we will make a one time exception for you as a courtesy” is the magic incantation to ensure that customer never returns.
I got that from Staples last week because they did me a real solid by refunding my online order they cancelled instead of going to a store with ID and the invoice and original credit card. Who the fuck goes to a physical store to get a refund on an online order the company themselves cancelled?!
Not exactly what you’re asking, but it’s also worth checking your local library. Some of them grant their cardholders access to external sources that might overlap with what you’re after.
It’s true. People were saying it on the tv!
Every piece of shit they make that I bought ended up broken and in the trash within a couple of weeks.
If you eat a fang and it gouges into your skin and injects venom, did you eat it or did you get bitten?
I thought this was a copypasta but you seem to be banging out originals everywhere! Kudos.
Yup. I was using self checkout once and it flagged me when I was trying to pay but didn’t say why. The supervisor was on top of it and unlocked the terminal and it made him watch a 5 second video of “suspicious activity”, which was me moving my reusable bag to the other side at a low angle. Some AI they use saw that as trying to sneak an unscanned product past the scanner.
I thought it was terribly clever but he just rolled his eyes and apologized for the inconvenience. As if an underpaid Walmart employee is going to waste their time arguing with a shoplifter.
Shutting down a laptop also makes it shut up!

lol. They’re promoting their employee shuttle. Classic Felon.
Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein is one the books I read during my formative years that I still think about a lot.
If you like graphic novels, The Sandman by Neil Gaiman is fantastic. Great writing and great artwork.
I think it was Gandhi who said “the best time to punch a nazi is 90 years ago. The second best time is today.”
