Oh makes sense. On the one hand, helped form the Democratic Party, OTOH big role in the Trail of Tears. Tough to know if he's an ally or not ;) :'(

Maybe, hopefully, OP just doesn't spend as much time with girls as he did when a little boy. Anyway random cartwheels are definitely still a thing.

Edit: turns out I can't read

Absolutely not. Lifeguards literally save so many lives. Maybe it's different in the US with its weird power structures and motives, but lifeguards are more like the fire brigade than the police here...

The only reason I give the slightest slightly green toilet-bowl-staining shit about this is because it upsets him and he deserves to be upset

Check where you are, because come on, that's the whole point of this community

One might argue that 'doing nothing' with land was an extremely good way of protecting it, but one would have to be talking to someone who was operating in good faith if they were to bother to do so...

Many years ago, my aunt bought an old, terribly specced laptop and couldn't get Windows to run on it. I installed Ubuntu and everything was fine - she could check her email and browse toxic conspiracy theories on Facebook and all was good with the world.

Two years later when visiting I got my first support request - would I mind showing her how to print something? No problem, but would you mind showing me what you were trying? She was selecting menu items to send to a virtual printer, not the one on the network. I show her the correct printer to send to and the thing prints. Easy. Out of curiosity, I check the outbox queue for the virtual printer. Over a hundred documents, going back two years.

For two years she'd been unable to print, and every single time she'd ever attempted to print something she'd followed the exact same steps that didn't work, and just accepted that this was the way things were.

SMH.

They missed out the context code:

trait DoW { def length: FiniteDuration }
object Monday extends DoW { override def length = 24.hours }
...
implicit def toDoW(s: String): DoW = s match {
 case "Monday" => Monday
...
}
var day: DoW = _

(Duration formatting and language identification are left as an exercise for the reader)

I just want to never have to hear about this cunt again. Is that why people like him?
