I like how he ends his e-mail, treating the public populous as a corporate employee.

Uh…yes? That is more historical context than situational but the more info the better.

This is a good pic to teach “context”.

I miss Norm MacDonald.

Barring any eye issues, I remove them always when speaking to people. I find it disrespectful to speak without making visible eye-contact.

You may be right. The whole world is on the brink ,deciding if we will move forward as a global “rule of law” or a global “might makes right” future.

It’s one or the other. Cogito ergo sum vs. esse est percipi.

In an epic twist, Will Smith was the salesman.

I balk at the idea of paying to dump your junk in a landfill site. I pay myself but that silly system only leads to broke people having to dump elsewhere.

Transparency everywhere should be the ultimate goal. Save the social engineering for the capitalists.

This is fake because Alexander Hamilton talked in rap. /s

This is the only guy who failed as the Joker. I don’t dislike him but he gives me the creeps. I saw his band backing up KISS about 10 years ago and they weren’t bad.

The Dome of the Rock seems to be claimed by all three. Abraham attempted to sacrifice his son there, before he was stopped. Muhammed’s ascent to heaven took place there (figuratively, not literally), and Jesus threw the moneymen out of the temple at that location.

I always wondered what is so special about that location.

Canadian: “That’s crazy, eh?” Scotsman: “Aye.”

Everyone made and used BBS’s back in the beginning. It was relatively easy. BBS’s somehow morphed into Twitter, etc. and became worth billions. That valuation makes no sense.

Whew! I followed you though. There are other factors as well I’m sure, but yeah, those are some of them, and big ones too. Greed sure does become complicated over time. Institutions are built on it. It was a bit hard to get past the arrogant-sounding “Repeat after me” but I’m glad I kept going.

A rose is a rose is a rose. I get your point though. Terms must be defined specifically in order to hold academic discussions. Welfare is called socialism by some.

Socialism in america only exists for corporations. “Hey bankers! Screwed up again? Here’s more money to play with.”
