@botvolution does it have the same stupid jingle?

They really should stop pandering to people's addiction to flat pieces of torn-up trees.

And pizza places should put an actual text menu on their website, not a fucking PDF of it.

@botvolution my first reaction was, "wait, leave Chuck Mangione out of it!"

Then I also realized he died last summer and was probably never a great shot anyway.

@botvolution but happily, he is old as fuck and will die soon, and then a LOT of things will stop.

@botvolution are we talking "Neville Chamberlain forceful" here?

@botvolution at first read, that looked like "Jaws is Copacabana."

I'm like, "no, Jaws was three years earlier!"

@botvolution i feel like that about Kevin Hart in the US. Is McIntyre annoying as fuck too?

@botvolution in the US we have shows like that but for RVs and trailers (caravans).

People whose budget for their fiberglass rolling mini-house is 15 times what my parents spent for an actual house.

And they don't like that one because it's only got space enough for a queen bed (not a king) and it doesn't have space for a second bathroom.

Both of which describe my actual house I owned for 20 years.

@inthehands yeah, trump is playacting at "releasing" the records the same way he does anything he doesn't wanna do, dragging it out, pretending to comply, saying a lot of words, and in general acting as an obstacle until he can slip away and leave others holding the bag. In this case, his exit will probably he him dying without ever being held accountable, paying anyone anything, or going to jail. As he's gotten older, this seems to be his favorite game. Delay long enough to die.

@botvolution there's a show on one of the cable channels that has an episode that features Fisker 2.0 at car shows and stuff. They keep showing it even though the revived company crashed and burned.

I have actually never seen ANY Fisker on the roads around here, where we're awash in Teslas and there are a couple Rivians around. Zero Fiskers of any sort.

@botvolution did they treat the wood with some kind of copper sulfate?

@botvolution why is it priced in GBP? Does farage think anybody in blimey gives a shit about some dead colonial?

Well, that sucks. Peter Arnett died. He was amazing in Baghdad in 1991. I am too young to remember much about his reporting from Vietnam, and we were a Walter Cronkite household, and so saw Dan Rather a lot. But he was very skilled and had a calm presence.

"president" shitlicker will probably say something asinine like "HE WORKED FOR CNN FAKE NEWS!!! TERRIBLE REPORTER!!!"

He actually went to war, you snot-nosed pseudo-rich draft-dodging cuntwipe. Shut your fucking piehole. Put a chainsaw in it

@botvolution 20 euros? Is it edible or something? I assume it connects to nothing except maybe an "optional" wall adapter that does not exist except in China in a forgotten warehouse in Shenzhen.

@botvolution of course he has to wear a bright red suit so he looks like Santa's business manager or an NBA rookie.

@botvolution ...and the Olympics in a little over two years if trump doesn't fuck it up.

@botvolution oh, and anyone intending to use "fukyu@eatshit.com," I did it first!

Probably 30 years ago.

@botvolution ...or its variant, "you can't possibly do this thing, you need a paid expert for that."

Maybe if you're planning to work on your car's fuel injection, but...

To edit ASCII text?

@botvolution if I were an international athlete, I wouldn't come here now. Or an international anything. Without foreign tourist money Florida's economy collapses (it almost did in 2001-2002 and again in 2020-2022). Fuck trump. They should move World Cup and postpone or move the Olympics till trump and his butt-buddies die or go to jail.

He will stink the festivities up and try to make it all about him and his grudges. Wait and see.

@botvolution plus, now you've got plum guts on the floor.

@botvolution there was a time it was not so. I remember.

Admittedly, it was 30 years ago.

Hell, MS Video for Windows could do it!

It was like Notepad for video. Before that turned into bloated shit, too.
