OT: The Thread About Nothing CCX: Pet Emporium

[None Shall Pass]

I got a call from my credit card's fraud department asking if I was trying to spend $2500 on Ugg boots.

So not only did someone get my credit card number, but they also came here from 2004 to do so.

These numbers are up significantly, mostly in South Jersey. I just want to see you rage over this

Not sure that really says much.

I like my "local community" too, but it doesn't change the fact NJ's going to hell & I need to move.

I had to be in the City the other night for a conference and took this picture. I was feeling artistic.

This is an interesting topic for discussion. This man serving a life sentence for murder in Iowa was pronounced dead and then revived at the hospital against his will in 2015. He is arguing that he has served his life sentence and should be released.

I'm kind of inclined to agree with him on technicality. Morally I agree the dude should remain locked up, but technically he did die so it's a completely different discussion.

Pickle juice is fantastic for that. I used to take a shot or two of it after a hockey game.

Also recommend pedialyte over gatorade/powerade

I'll give the Cybertruck props for how tough the steel is, but it's the ugliest production vehicle I've seen since the Pontiac Aztec from about 15 years ago.

But the only thing people are going to remember is the glass failure from tonight. My guess is the news, social media, etc... are going to have a field day with it.



EDIT: OMG, this thing is getting destroyed on TWTR. I'm in tears laughing at some of the tweets, but this one is my favorite.

 

[BenedictGomez]

Torn.

I realize this is what you get if you get your "news" from GQ, but simultaneously I have to believe this is the greatest correction in the history of journalism.

The damn thing looks like it is going to become a decepticon.

And lol that the windows broke that easily. Sounds like its par for the course for Tesla.

If Elon would just let expert companies build some of the parts for his cars, he could actually meet his manufacturing quotas

Mustard too.

 

[Davegarri]

Mustard too.

Yeah but no one wants to just eat a mustard packet, that's pretty gross lol

 

[Nubmer6]

So... I had to remove the old fridge from my GF's place in NYC. The thing was 50+ years and a security gate was installed in the house after the fridge was initially brought in, so the thing just couldn't come out.

So I had to do this:

I'd argue pickle juice is every bit as disgusting.

The footage being smuggled out of Iran is INSANE. Opening fire on government protesters etc.... Too graphic to post the tweets.

Robot dogs should be as goofy and dumb as regular dogs.

nothing that 'smash' cant take care of

….smash is my baseball bat i've had since the late 80's…… funny thing, not shitting you, …..earlier today i was thinking of covering the barrel of it with 80 grit belt sander paper in case i might have the need to use it for something other than hitting a ball…..just for that extra…..hmm….. 'damage'

Have you watched Black Mirror? There's an episode that is about these.

Nope, dont even know what that is.

All of a sudden I feel the need for an electromagnetic pulse gun though.

I don't really watch TV shows, but that sounds like it could be pretty awesome.

I'm actually DVR'ing the original T.Z. series as we speak.
