“Not admissible because it was illegally captured” didn’t give me the warm-and-fuzzies this comment sounds like it should’ve.

This. Everyone I talk to says, “but socialized medicine has such long wait times.” But these same fuckers avoid going to the doctor until it’s absolutely unbearable to deal with because it costs to much to find out if it’ll get better on its own. So if you’re getting symptoms of something and waiting two months anyway, how is your system better?
if your goal as a parent is to maximize success of your children.
“Success” is very subjective.
That’s a bad take. The case actually affirmed business judgement rule: the idea that the guy running the company knows how to run it better than the shareholders. It’s part of why post-war America is considered the golden age of American manufacturing: Publicly traded companies invested in their employees and wages exploded across the board. A 100 year old court decision isn’t the primary driver on a problem that’s really only developed in the last forty or fifty years.
My BIL is a Catholic Libertarian. Almost forty and still lives with Mom and Dad, so he never had the brush with reality that your friend went through. He thinks he’s politically savvy and always wants “civil debate” with me, but he’s utterly insufferable.
I’m not looking forward to Thanksgiving next week.
Future Me has more experience and wisdom than Present Me. There’s no reason I should do anything when such a better-suited candidate will inevitably emerge.

Historians watching any film remotely connected to their field: Well that never fucking happened!
This. I bought a 32oz Nalgene when I was in high school. Lost it on a camping trip in my early twenties, and replaced it with the exact same one. I’ve had it and used it daily for over 15 years now.
After WotC sold their own official proxies in those anniversary packs, I gave up on official prints. Now every deck costs me $22 plus shipping.
There can’t possibly be that many dead bodies falling out of coffins every day. And there’s no way one in every five of them are nude.
Seconding Player Piano. Both it and Cat’s Cradle were almost explicitly based on his time with GE, and they’ve both gained more cultural relevance over the years.
Part of what makes it a significant other is that embarrassment is no longer a concern. Once you know you’re in it for the long haul, it’s about supporting one another. I’ve done things I don’t even feel comfortable saying with the anonymity of the internet and admitted freely to them, because we’re partners. My problems are their problems and their problems are mine.
Where do you charge them?
