Yes but have you also attempted to buy a camping chair at Dick's. It's really wild how badly laid out the camping section is. I buy like half my clothing at Tractor Supply Co when I'm picking up other stuff, I look like a hipster cowboy but it works.

A Greek playwright walks into a tailor with a pair of pants, the tailor says "euripides?", to which the playwright replies "eumenides?"

You know it's legit because it has your favorite minion next to it.

Though I will say, retrievers, you can sometimes give them a literal chest full of toys, and really all they want are your napkins and mail.

I let them shred apart toilet paper tubes though.

Rock and a hard place, it's very similar to the situation the people of Afghanistan find themselves in, if you are living in Kabul, yeah the Taliban aren't sunshine and rainbows, but you are pretty happy to see them swoop in when ISIS shows up. (I'm not equating ISIS and the IDF directly for the record, but you can see how from a Gazans perspective the IDF poses a similar threat at times)

Israel definitely is well within their rights to retaliate against Hamas, it would be foolish to claim otherwise. It's the exact way they are doing it that is the issue, they are behaving nearly as poorly as their enemy. You can't just tell the world "look at the barbarity of Hamas slaughtering innocent civilians just out there kibbutzing" and then turn around and bomb civilian hospitals, completely disregard rules of engagement around medical aid killing humanitarian volunteers you were aware of, shutting off all power, water and closing food supply to the Gaza strip, and then act like it's somehow better than that.

Hamas absolutely sucks and Israel has every right to defend themselves from terrorism, but the Palestinian children buried under rubble didn't deserve any of this. (Neither did the Israeli citizens who were slaughtered and kidnapped for that matter.)

Israel has the technology, the troops, and the tactics to be far more precise and surgical in their retaliation, but their response has been punitive and brutal, and seems to almost maximize collateral damage. Of course that's what Netanyahu and his thugs will all but directly say they want given the opportunity to speak. I do not believe that properly represents the citizens of Israel who are generally much more sympathetic to the people of Palestine.

Both the citizens of Israel and Palestine have been failed by their leadership. Agree or disagree, at this point, I just had to write that down somewhere. I know people from both Palestine and Israel, wonderful people, all this is heartbreaking.

War is hell, even if you play by the rules, why make it even worse?

The best part is it's not even that complicated of a thing conceptually. Like you don't need to study it to kind of understand the idea and some of its limitations.

Yeah I feel that. Not an easy decision to make.

It's an interesting theory. Big if true. It just seems far too risky when you know most of the western world still supports Israel.

Though if you can pull it off, wow, and they could probably have predicted that it would cause a lot of internal division among Americans which only benefits Russia.

You know what A & W stands for?

Amburgers and Wootbeer!

Really? If you just look up "3DS USB charging cable" on a popular jungle themed online retailer it comes up with loads of them. Sure you can find the same on AliExpress or eBay.

And yes yours uses the same cables/charger as the 3DS.

Luckily they are popular enough that you can get pretty inexpensive cables that allow USB charging.

It's technically true either way, but yeah that doesn't read well and definitely wasn't the intent.

Check out "Continue?" on youtube they just find an old or obscure game and play it and rate it continue or not.

Yeah, like I don't think Vonnegut would count lol. Sure learn a lot about people, the human condition, though.

It's the same with CAM software in CNC, like sure, If you set it up right (which is a skill in and of itself) it can spit out a decent toolpath, but there's tons of magic to be done by hand and understanding the way the underlying G code works allows you to make small changes on the fly.

Pretty much, they are good for target practice and that's about it

Soy sauce is basically gourmet MSG anyways.

I hope someone at the FCC pissed in his giant mug before he left.

If it were me I'd just tell them they have the choice between refunding me or me issuing a charge back since they didn't deliver the product, I know which is preferable to them...

It's really none of the customers problem why you can't deliver, unless they are somehow being difficult, you are obligated to make the customer whole on the transaction which is a contract.

If they took care of me I'd happily email Sony and tell them they are being dicks (in a brutal but classy way), but these guys are probably cut off for a reason.
