I just my kid a 2TB ssd for $60. 1TB can be found under $30 lately.


It’s possible, but by the time you get to the supervisor, it’s time to cut the shit.


Sam’s Club. We cancelled our membership and they still charged us. I called the main customer service number and told them to reverse the charge, or I would reverse it for them. They got all pissy and claimed they could only speak to my wife, who wasn’t available, despite the fact that my card was the one charged. Then they started getting insulting, and claimed my bank wouldn’t reverse the charge. I ask to speak to someone higher up, and politely explain the situation again, complete with my cancellation email, and the supervisor is even ruder than the first person. I then called the local store, and thankfully the person there wasn’t an asshole. They pulled up the account, saw it was cancelled on the date I said, and quickly refunded the charge. I have no idea why Sam’s Club customer service is the way they are, but they can eat a bag of dicks.



Almost everything since Disney took over, except bits of Mandolorian.





Some of my co-workers use it, and it’s fairly obvious, usually because they are putting out even more inaccurate info than normal.




Not all EVs are crazy expensive. Some of them are basically at price parity with what a gas version of the same vehicle would cost now.


Mine are comfortable, but after less than a year the lining has holes worn through in several spots.


Our idiot principal for my first two years tried to come up with his own rule that shirts had to be tucked in. The written rule added the caveat “if it was designed to be tucked in”. I purposely bought shirts that said they were not intended to be tucked in just so I could be a problem, and then made sure other people know which ones to buy.


I always told my kid to fight back, and I’d have their back. More parents should be that way. Same way too many kids get beat up in HS because they were afraid to fight back.


Just finished re-reading all of the pre-Disney Star Wars novels. I’m into Patrick O’Brian’s standalone novels now, starting with “The Unknown Shore”.


We stopped recently, and plan on wearing them again during flu season, or any other outbreaks going on. I’d have been fine with wearing them indefinitely, but we were in the minority even when there were mandates in our area.
