Bonehead,

You forget how ridiculously difficult and expensive it was to buy a PS2 when it was released.

Bonehead,

Yes, and the PS2 was still more expensive than anything else on the market at the time. Plus there were shortages. I didn't even see a PS2 until mid 2002 when a coworker finally got one and invited us over for a party.

Bonehead,

Simple. You lie when questioned. Consistency is for other people to worry about.

Bonehead,

Are you sure about that?

Because he says both.

Bonehead,

Don’t be a completionist.

But how do I avoid feeling that horrible sense of emptiness? It's not done until it's 100%...

Bonehead,

With a built-in clothes dryer!

Bonehead,

But there aren't any holes on a CPR dummy except for the mou...oh...ew...

Bonehead,

So the person that complained their competition is beating them because they deliver packages on evenings and weekends is now complaining that mail, which is essentially small parcels that are paid for accordingly, are delivered too often. Contract negotiation time always brings out the most interesting stories...

Bonehead,

You're not paying a fuck ton of money. Canada Post is a separate entity from the government and is a self-sustaining business that receives no money from the government.

Unsolicited commercial mail is paid for by the company sending it. All mail is paid for by the people sending it. It doesn't cost you anything to receive it. And when it really matters, like those "rare" correspondence that contain your drivers license, or insurance slips, or your health card, or your doctor's appointments, or even your small parcels from eBay, I'm sure you want those as soon as they come in. You should care about regular mail delivery. Because once you lose it, it's never coming back.

Bonehead,

If you don't want unsolicited commercial mail, you can always contact your local post office and request to be added to the no flyers list. Just because you don't like flyers doesn't mean that mail delivery isn't important when it matters.

Bonehead,

At first you were complaining that you were paying money for a service, and now you're complaining that you'd rather pay money for a service. If it's a government service, you'll have politicians trying to defund it just like they are with health care, or sell it off like Ontario did with Hydro One. If it's a government regulated private service, it doesn't have to deal with that, but it needs a way to fund itself. Pick your poison...

Bonehead,

Yes, most Canadians don't mind paying for more services. Tell that to the politicians actively defunding health care while introducing private for-profit clinics that cost more than public health care both to the province and to the patient, just like Doug Ford is doing right now. Public services only work when we elect people willing to make them work. Remember this the next time you go to the polls.

Bonehead,

To be fair, health regulations have largely eliminated the risk of parasites in pork. Though that doesn't apply everywhere in the world.

Bonehead,

Yes, I understand that. Cooking pork to an internal temperature of 165 Fahrenheit will kill parasites. But health regulations on farms have essentially eliminated the risk of parasites to begin with, specifically to mitigate the idiots. RFK admitted to eating in a foreign country that doesn't have the same safety standards. That's the reason he was infected with parasites.

Bonehead,

I never said it was safe to eat raw pork. Stop creating strawmen that have nothing to do with this conversation...

Bonehead,

Yes, they are agreeing with me because health regulations are responsible for eliminating parasites, not because people overcook pork.

Seriously, take your own advice. Stop talking about food safety. You are not an authority, so stop acting like one.

Bonehead,

The same applies for ground beef as well. It's the grinding up of the meat that creates a zone for bacteria to infect it. The reason they changed pork to 145 is because they created health regulations that eliminated the risk of parasites and allow them to only cook it to 145.

Bonehead,

The organization as a whole, yes. But some individual troops are still run by bigots that haven't gotten the message yet.

Bonehead,

Yeah that's cool and all. But now build that into the front of this, and I'll really be impressed.

Bonehead,

Bullshit. They cry bankrupt every time contract negotiations come up. They just wasted millions on those fucking useless C250 trucks that are so poorly designed that they can't hold large boxes. They aren't broke, there is no financial crisis, they just don't want to pay the people actually doing the work.

Bonehead,

You're not "subsidizing post". Canada Post is a completely separate entity that generates it's own revenue. They don't receive any money from the government.

Bonehead,

But he's also a pig. This is super cereal...

Bonehead,

Now this is the proper use of generative AI.

Bonehead,

Neelix and Kes should have been a father figure/orphaned little sister relationship. Neelix lost his sister in the metreon cascade. Kes lost her father not long before running away to the surface. Both should have played into those roles instead of the weird creepy relationship they went with. They wouldn't have needed to be shot out of a torpedo tube without Neelix's incessant jealously over every little thing.

Bonehead,

MLM? This is likely human trafficking. MLMs will gladly take your money, but the face to face interactions are at seminars well after you're hooked on the scam. Traffickers will entice you into "training" at one of their facilities right away.

Bonehead,

This is a very factual article. I'm not sure where the satire is.

Bonehead,

False. Tractor beams would make pocket pussies even better.

Poilievre won't commit to keeping new social programs like pharmacare (www.cbc.ca)

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre delivered a fiery speech Thursday that depicted the government’s latest budget as a threat to the country’s future, and suggested a number of new social programs will get a second look if he leads the next government....

Bonehead,

They don't need a warning. They know he'll go through with it. They want him to go through with it. "Oh that's just talk" is gaslighting designed to convince you to not do anything about it until it's too late. This is a warning to everyone else...get out there and VOTE! Don't let the Conservative party lead us down the path of austerity and cuts like they do every time they are in power.

Bonehead,

I don't care. It's Soos. It's Ace-SUS, not Ah-soos. It's I-Key-Ah, not E-Kay-Ah. These are the way everyone around me says these things for as long as I can remember.

Bonehead,

Non-Anglophone countries are free to exist and are free to pronounce things however they want. I would be looked at as if I had two heads if I pronounced those things like those non-Anglophone countries. It's about not wanting to be treated like I'm a idiot just for pronouncing things the "proper" way.

Bonehead,

IKEA in North America pronounces it I-Key-Ah in their commercials. That's directly from the company itself. If they are OK with accepting the different pronunciation of their own name, then why am I expected to say it the European way? That goes for Suse and Asus as well, since they've been called Soos and Ace-sus for years before they decided to "correct" everyone.

Bonehead,

I live in a place where people call things whatever they want to call things, and when enough people call that thing by that pronunciation for long enough than it becomes the default pronunciation. Which is exactly the same as where you live.

Bonehead,

They released a joke video, as evident by the singing and the fact the kids still said it "wrong" at the end. I think they are very aware and understand that people will still call them Soos.

Bonehead,

I never disputed it. I said I don't care. They can pronounce it however they want. In regular conversation with people around me, I'll call it whatever I want.

Bonehead,

Tell us you've never been in a relationship with a woman without actually telling us you've never been in a relationship with a woman...

Bonehead,

I suppose you're also a billionaire too?

Bonehead,

The federal carbon price is not the “be-all, end-all” of climate policy, and New Democrats are open to alternative plans presented by premiers, NDP environment critic Laurel Collins said Wednesday.

The provinces have had literally years to come up with their own solution. They are free to create their own solution right now. The federal carbon tax is merely a back stop for provinces that don't have their own solution. This is all pure politics that doesn't help anyone...

Bonehead,

I learned this years ago. Many minivans are capable of towing 3500 pounds and can hold 4'x8' sheets of plywood flat on the floor. The bonus is that I can also carry 6 passengers with me if I need, which you can't do with a pickup. At least not legally, anyways.

Bonehead,

Your body replaces all of your cells over the course of 7 to 10 years. So every 7 or so years, you are literally no longer the same person that you were. What's the difference between that and expediting the process with a transporter?

Bonehead,

I’m hoping so … I can’t ask too many questions to the mother because she doesn’t seem to really know either.

That should have been your first clue. You're getting 3rd hand information from someone not entirely familiar with the situation, getting information from a son that got limited information from their commander. Stop spreading misinformation...

Bonehead,

That sounds like an Apple product to me.

Bonehead,

Would you rather find out in person with an audience?

Bonehead,

I never knew men were capable of developing so...perfectly.

Bonehead,

You know how cookies are a big deal and how every website keeps asking you to accept their cookies? Now you know why...it's not a conspiracy, it's just how the internet works.

Bonehead,

Great...now I'm going to have that stuck in my head all day.

Bu Bu Bu Butt Drugs....Bu Bu Bu Butt Drugs...

Bonehead,

These are gendered showers. I don't think that's going to be a problem...

Luis Rubiales faces 30 month jail sentence for Jenni Hermoso kiss (www.theguardian.com)

Luis Rubiales could face a prison sentence of two and a half years if convicted of kissing Jenni Hermoso on the lips against her will, court documents have shown. The former Spanish football federation chief has been charged with one count of sexual assault and one of coercion in the aftermath of the kiss, offences carrying jail...

Bonehead,

Yet again, dismissing and reframing the event...
