Reply to comment by bigredjet in FBI offers $40,000 reward for American woman kidnapped in Mexico while walking her dog by Ghoast_manz
It’s cute you think the US would do that for a single average citizen. Deluded, but cute.

They want to make sure they have a supply of foreign nationals from every country to arrest next time they feel the need to try and flex a muscle.

Reply to comment by Professional_Sea3141 in My friend sent me this from an oil conference by heinzhinesheinz
Catching attention and getting business are two VERY different things.
The crazy drunk guy yelling at his invisible demons on the train catches my attention. But I’m not going to hire him for anything.

It’s okay. We’ll all be dead in a nuclear war long before that. No worries.

One plus side of war: You don’t have to pay back any debts owed to your opponent.

Reply to Til Boxing day in the UK has to do with a tradition of boxing up presents to give to the poor and has nothing to do with boxing the sport by Jasong222
I don’t think any Canadian/Brit has ever thought Boxing Day was named after the sport.
Most people assume it’s named that way as it’s the day people traditionally started “boxing up” Christmas decorations. (Alternatively, the day businesses started boxing up all their Christmas overstock - hence the sales.)

FYI: The USA ain’t that old. They’re basically the international equivalent of the teenager that hit puberty too early and is now a foot taller and 50lbs heavier than the other teenagers, but still a teenager.

Reply to Canadian scientists discover new COVID-19 variant in deer that may spread to humans by Memetic1
“B. 1.641 was effectively wiped out by blood samples of people either vaccinated two to three times or who have already recovered from infection, the study found.”
Nothing to see here. If you’re not an idiot and got vaccinated, you’re safe from this.

Reply to Amazon must face California lawsuit claiming its prices are too high by dildobagginss
In my experience Amazon is about on par with other online and in-person stores. Pepperidge Farm remembers when their claim to fame was that they’re cheaper, but now people (myself included) use Amazon for selection and convenience. Not price.
