I don't know about the rest of you, but I don't know of any 1st grade classes teaching financial literacy, nor high school classes focusing on how to play a recorder.
I did have a few weeks that focus on domestic finances in 8th grade. That almost nobody paid attention to. So there's at least one school that did both 20 years ago...
As an American, seconded.
I'm trapped here, don't YOU risk being kidnapped and trapped here or sent somewhere worse just because you wanted to see the Grand Canyon.
This will be much less funny when it's the black bag squad roaming around in unmarked vans kidnapping people for not having Trump's mark on them.
My dad legitimately thinks that's a great action movie. And to be fair, it is.
But he doesn't understand the deeper meanings.
More meat for the grinder is totally just a bad ass thing to say! Not at all like an orphan crushing machine, for sure.
My mother in law is absolutely convinced that democrats are going to go marching around with guns to drag her and her family out into the street to be executed.
If she realized there was still space to the left of "Democrat" on the politician field she'd have an aneurism.
That and they have way more free time to play endless hours of that game...
Statements dreamt up by the utterly deramged: "Hi, we are a new federated server. COMPLY WITH OUR RULES OR WE WILL NOT FEDERATE WITH YOU"
Rational people: "Okay, that was always allowed. Bye."

I just assume like 75% of the people who read posts like this a believe the poster's intended message simply live in areas with such poor public transport, the idea that there are not only multiple busses running to the same destination, but those busses are full Is simply so alien to them, they just assume something fucky is going on.
I lived in a small city in Ohio, and I gotta say.... It was wild being in Columbus for a convention and being able to catch a bus on my own street within minutes of walking up to the stop, and seeing a mostly full bus.
The few times I used my home city's transportation, I had to leave early enough to walk a good mile to the nearest stop (where I had to wait about 20 minutes since the bus was 10 minutes late), and make all the appropriate transfers so that I get to work on time, and I was one of three people on the bus usually. And I arrived at my destination a full 45 minutes before I needed to be there, but it was that or walk for several hours both ways.
Functional public transport is an alien concept when your nearest neighbor is half a mile down the road.
"she wears that outfit"
Cool libel, Bro.
Seems like a lawyer should have advised against posting that.
"problem with authority" is just What authorities say when what they mean is "constantly questions our reasons and doesn't just immediately do what we SAY exactly as we MEAN it like a ~~good little puppet~~ beloved citizen"
A coworker of mine was dangerously close to connecting some of the dots yesterday.
He started complaining about how things are getting more expensive, and how the company we work for has started buying things from overseas because even with tariffs it's cheaper than buying American made, and then came the stunning part.
He said "They say they have to raise prices because of terrorists or some shit, but how do WE know if that's true? How do we know there ARE any terrorists and it's not just all bullshit made up by politicians and the news to justify raising prices so they can get rich."
And then he took a hard right turn and added that "all those goddamn r****d democrats in congress" are to blame.
So close.
