Conditioning. Do as you're told. Doesn't matter how ridiculous it is. For the rest of your life. Assuming you don't want to starve in the streets.

Agreed. If these were native and not wrecking shit they'd be like lightning bugs. Pretty to look at, sign of changing seasons, etc.

I miss Sir Pratchett.

Ham is a specific cut of pork, taken from a pig. If inclined, you can take any ham and point to exactly where it came from. The best you can do with pork roll is gesture vaguely towards the pens. Man called it "prepared ham" to try and be a weasel and got called out because it's not ham. And now a hundred plus years later people are still simping for the poor poor businessman that couldn't just lie to everyone for profit without the big bad gubmint stepping in.

Cry me a river.

> The fact that Taylor Ham had to be changed because some beaurocratic bullshit is ridiculous

Yeah, how dare the government say "you can't call something what it's not."

No, I call them Band-Aid Ham.

Thanks! I think.

I ask for a Kleenex Ham.

More like an ex that hasn't been around in a hundred years but you're still in denial.

> tons of supplies that sat around for months doing nothing

This happens a lot. My old job had at least a million dollars worth of datacenter equipment just sitting around for over a year waiting for "resources" (eg. people they refused to hire more of and time they demanded be spent elsewhere). Then they got bought out by a much larger company and suddenly it was very important that the months-long process of standing up the new in parallel, testing, fixing, cutting over, fixing more, and decommissioning the old be completed in two weeks. Buncha clowns.

> Tis the season for all the guys who wear shorts when it’s below freezing to come out of hibernation to show off their cold resistant calves

I'm not sure if I should feel attacked or validated. 🤔

They send those in the mail, too.

> Is everyone here just forgetting that they have a phone in their pocket that is also a litteral wireless mic that can be set to record?

Well yeah but we can SEE the one hanging out of your ear.

Or something.
