Oh, and the rubber end cap on uniball is pretty much 10/10 if you habitually chew on pens.

The finest nib point would totally cut through paper if you weren’t careful tho, lol.

As a g2 fan I’ve gotta come out and say that uniball usually has nicer barrel than g2s.

Does anyone remember TŪL or whatever the brand was?

I feel like they popped up, because a Walmart exclusive and then died or something. It’s a shame, they had a really nice 5mm and I think a 4mm?

I was told that it’s mandatory?!

Fair. I guess I should say that it doesn’t feel like *march* 2020 as much anymore? (which is ironic to say right now, I realize).

I really wish we’d gotten the end of history instead of the end of time. This sucks.

3 years ago was still part of the long 2020 so I suspect a fuckton of us have a fuckton of stuff we blacked out.

Alcoholism plus excessive sunburn and windburn over a lifetime can get you… fairly close? But usually you either wind up more gray or more red?

Hey now, whiskey *contains* water. (Although at this point I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s also using it as a face wash)

It might have been safer to go after Starbucks, lol.

Fuck, I think I knew that but then forgot. My bad.

Ooh, classy. I’m sorry I got nothin’

(I was secretly hoping you were gonna try the new thing so I could get a review on it)

Beef Supreme or that new chicken bacon ranch thing?

Wait, so you don’t hyperlink?

Like A for “this must never break” effort but like… no hyperlinks? Oof.

Excuse me what the actual fuck?

Again, Americans are not “choosing” not to depart at the time. The airspace is closed.

It’d certainly create a catch 22 for weed sales!

Now I’m imagining a scenario where a sex shop or weed shop bought a bunch of refurbished point of sale systems and then gets screwed over because they got sold by a Dairy Queen.

“Fuck, the license is too old to reconfigure these, they’re paperweights”

You’ve gotta post the age band so that the developer can assume they have a given target so…

18+? Except maybe you’d have to have. 16-18 toggle for retail and fast food POS?

It’s so ridiculous on an OS level, even if “tell us ur age band” is the sensible age verification for software in general.

Gonna make Linux from Scratch just that one extra teensy step harder to implement tho, lol.

Or imagine all the point of sale systems that will need an update?

It’s a liability/“you if you set it as x it won’t install y” thing, I guess?

Self reporting? Okay, cool cool cool. Less absolutely asinine than I expected.

It’s at least a requirement for *self reporting* for what it’s worth. Radio buttons rather than anything else, so that at least fits the good and proper standard for how age verification should be handled.

It’s an excellent example of why trying to tip the scales can just make shit worse but that’s about it!

Maybe I’ve been in a bubble but back in MY day the main response “well what the fuck did we think would happen? Mosaddegh was probably the best case scenario for the region at the time, but we had to get all pissy about them wanting to get paid for their oil”

Yeah, all newer pictures of him have that going on, I think any “good” photos require extensive touch ups or just using an old photo.

It doesn’t necessarily rate compared to all the other horrors but there’s also an element of elder abuse going on here.

I have not yet

The one thing that does stand out is sour cherries. I’m a fan but the US doesn’t give a fuck about them the way England does. Henry 8th demanded that they become growth all over the place and shit?

Although I guess she’s complaining as an American which makes everything else even more fucking baffling.

You just gotta check the actual ingredients on the back, surely.

Sour cherries is pretty fucking funny since I’m pretty sure then Romans introduced them to the now British islands HELLA long ago.

Henry the VIII was a big fan of them!
