Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I can’t be the only one who finds it a little bit creepy and distasteful when I open my email on a day like Remembrance Day to find businesses marketing whatever it is they sell alongside lest we forget messages. I’m not the easily offended type, but I find it gross. Do what you want …

Gill has an interesting thought at the end here. So often we hear stories about family we’ve never met and never will. They’re almost always held up as salt of the earth human beings, maybe even heroes. But what kind of people were they, really? It sometimes feels like you’re not supposed to ask or …
Man alive. When I made this prediction, I had no idea how right it was going to be. Ford and company, as usual, have made a right mess of things. Also as usual, their tough talk has gotten them where it gets them more often than any government with any sort of clue should ever …
I can think of a few people for whom this $600, 60,000 piece jigsaw puzzle that Costco is selling would make a pretty cool gift. The problem is I have no idea where they would put it.

I know what Amazon is trying for here, but referencing “Fido”, “four legged customers” and paw print icons in your response to one of your workers being mauled to death by a couple of crazed dogs while delivering a package comes off juuuuuuuust a little insensitive, am I wrong? On Wednesday Vice published a message …
I feel the tiniest bit for the guy who won’t be getting his lunch on time, but I gotta tell ya, this food delivery bot getting himself crushed by a train fills my blind heart with joy. It’s one less piece of electronic garbage polluting the sidewalk, which means one less unnecessary travel hazard for …
It says here that this fellow is a middle school social studies teacher. Not sure how any of this fits in with social studies, at least as I remember them. Perhaps he should look at switching to law. He may be a subject matter expert fairly soon. Deputies said Schroeder was spotted by a neighbor …
