how did it not throw up red flags all around letting this guy wear it around that machine.

He wasn't allowed in the room.

His wife panicked in the MRI, he charged into the room he was told not to go Into.

Become ungovernable.

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...

I got detention for a week because when one of my classmates did this to me I hit him with mine.

No ragerts.

No chief engineer has ever asked why my favorite transporter rooms require so much extra power.

Well... Not more than once, anyway...

Seed that bitch so hard you can start a garden.

Well, even Kim has a plate. All the bridge crew from VOY have one!

Kim: I literally saved the ship and everyone inside on multiple occasions, literally rewrote history, and I'm still an Ensign.

Paris:I haven't gotten anyone seriously maimed or disobeyed huge important orders in awhile, so they promoted me.

Thanks for reminding me, I just moved halfway across the state and need to replace things.

I make people hate me when I play monopoly. I hate the game as much as I hate the system it was originally meant to mock. So every so often, people I know will keep trying to get me to play.

Monopoly Pro Tip: buy everything you can afford, put as many of the little houses you can on it, but don't upgrade to the big pieces. When there are no more small pieces, you can simply bleed everyone dry.

I've had people literally flip boards in anger.

And every time I hear someone say "that's not fair", I respond "I know it's not, But 'what's fair' doesn't matter in capitalism."

Yes, I get a little preachy with it.

But hey, I've almost never been asked to play again by the same person.

When I was 19 I wore a vest as part of a musical, and due to cast parties and such, I was walking out at night wearing the vest loosely over my shirt.

Some random woman walking by said "that vest looks really good on you!"

I kept it and wore it at least once a week until it fell apart.

I would like a new one, though. Purple and black paisley and/or lace is my jam.

Matthew 6:5

And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

But of course, none of them have ever read these words, that would require reading the Bible in some form or another.

You should see the things Riker gets up to in Quark's holosuites.

I don't think the universal translator will even allow me to tell you.

Nope, not me.

I'd like to think I'm funny though...

Well, I mean I DO technically have a YouTube channel that hasn't posted since 2017 and only has a few battlefield 3/4 clips on it I wanted to show friends.

Which YouTube guy would I be?

Fun anecdote: a relative, without a hint of irony, goes on about how they deserve to be there because "they used to live there 2,000 years ago"

Apparently I'm an "asshole", "woke" and "antisemitic" for bringing up native Americans...

My wife would be freaking out about two minutes after she realized I hadn't come back inside, I wasn't answering my phone, and I wasn't in any of the usual places around the house.

Everyone else? Weeks.

Even a single drop of water raises the ocean.

I hate any prominent onion flavor in my food, and it took me awhile to taste this one.

I miss the days when onion articles were less like reality.

I'm so glad the people around me who live nowhere near a field voted to kill field-to-solar projects around here, the factories and warehouses that went up where there used to be lovely views of the hills are much better. All that extra pollution and noise really adds something special to the day.
