I'd pass this around if the writer knew another adverb. I'm tired of 'litchally' people.

the Afghanistan pullout

That's the one Mr Trump started after a really bad plan, right?

Quick reminder that Physios and Chiros outside America face different rules for accreditation, and may not warrant similar judgement.

True... but not what's at debate, here.

You don't need to read the article.

1. speaker does something
2. Conservatives and French-conservatives screech for his cancellation.

Just seeding the field for actual transgressions and their evasion.

It's no RPM but apk is okay.

That's 10 years of support

I work on an OS whose oldest in-service major release will finally go deprecated in its TWENTY-SEVENTH year of life.

We're not getting upset at a mere decade. 10 years is kinda cute.

I think people are posse dat the boeing-like "safety is an add-on" mentality that sells security patches like a "don't nose in" feature on a max8.

No. Vi people use a lot of different mental gymnastics, but they never say that phrase.

damn damned

How can a 16 years old teenager feel comfortable saying "mom and dad"?

Well, for starters, they're still your mom ... and your dad.

They say that wrong.

B.C United,

.. the merged Social Credit and Liberal party

It's a good time to get those flares out from the emerge kit.

Kinetic energy is funny: just merely tapping that guy would've launched him to the side -- to bounce off the guardrail out of the way of the truck and not falling over the side if he was lucky.

Yep. Someone is really tired of driving and needs a decade break.

... and the chair of a 'cyber' security programme at that!

Given she used the app and not even a browser, it's not like even a DNS spoof could work here, redirecting to non-TLS spoofed servers, as the app should look for signed DNS for its upstream API and reject anything else.

I really think this is BMO victim-blaming.

On land, their back claws could become an issue.

Oh god, that was cringey. Please, if you want to dunk on spez, or play to the camera in other ways, please write like you passed the 4th grade.

it's easier to find obvious faults when something is held close for examination. Shoving this one in our faces has given us greater opportunity for close study. Other brands of hokum may include an actual space ship to rocket the most a faithful away or a con man who this one final time miraculously went straight, rituals with one rolled pant-leg, or alien spirits living in volcanoes. But we don't talk about them so much as they keep their weirdness in the shadows.

Can anyone provide a reason for why someone should get their first covid shot?

Not being an expert in epidemiology with a life-time history of study and experience, I trust those we've appointed as the experts.

So I ask their reps whether I should. Those reps tell me I should, and that the risks are so low that driving to the pharmacy makes a difference in the risk as a whole, and that I can prevent Nana from getting a serious disease which is still affecting things as a local drop-in clinic was shut down over last weekend.

So I trust the accredited experts with a statistically mind-numbingly obvious question and do the thing with obscenely low risk that will prevent me from picking up a death sentence for my nana on the airplane if I ride a train to the airport and fly to go see her.

And, ultimately, the reason one should get their first covid shot is because they're no longer an anti-vax tinfoil-hat weirdo? THat'll be the number one, so I'm just playing the odds.

If people are cancerned about fatal disease, why does nobody proactively prevent catching the flu, given the stats of yealy deaths from influenza?

This question has been asked and answered many, many times. By now, asking this kind of question shows either an inability to search, to compare two different numbers for lethality, communicability or preventability; or this is classic false-dilemma crap from the anti-science crowd.

Your answers are found trivially via google.
