If Chinas Navy pulled up and said “We’re here to get our tankers. Go on, try and stop us.” That would be a slap in the face he wouldnt survive OR he starts WW3… which he also wouldnt survive.

My point was that good policies can be interpreted poorly.

The company has people it KNOWS are first aid trained and they were trained recently. Letting someone who claims to know take precedence over someone who definitely does would be bad policy, switching out for someone who is documented as trained asap is good policy. First aiders need to sign waivers and forms saying they accept the risks and responsibilities, which limits the liability of the company if Bob doesnt make it or Bob had hepatitis. Standard corporate BS but sensible policy.

Some idiot interprets the policy poorly as “have the person relived by first aiders only” and refuses to let anyone else help.

Its definitely liability related but my point was that good policies can be interpreted poorly.

Its funny that the thing most likely to unseat the shameless capitalists is when the market wont bear the cost.

My workplace has a similar rule about CPR or medical emergencies. It has to be supervisors or the official first aid team members IF POSSIBLE. 1. Because we know all of the first aid training for those people is current. 2. Its traumatising for people to perform CPR especially if its ineffective. And we are to encourage staff to return to their duties or at very least advise staff to clear the area and give them some privacy because if you arent actively helping (Which this person was) you’re just gawking and you need to fuck off.

Could very well be common sense rules that have been misinterpreted by an idiot.

Its very much the same as standup comedy. Its 100% you.

If people dont watch its because YOU arent entertaining enough, YOU arent likeable enough, YOU arent putting in enough effort and energy, YOU dont bring anything new to the table, YOU dont take enough risks… Theres no team, theres no band, theres no coworkers, its all on you. Thats a lot to hang your entire livelihood on.

I could only do streaming or a YT if I had “never work again” money because without the pressure I probably could be fun and entertaining the whole time.

My wife has warned her friends “Never refer to my husband looking after his kids as “babysitting” unless you want a snarky, probably very rude response.”

Except on their anchovies.

I think Ricky has a problem in that some people go to his shows expecting a sterility of humor you find on tv and get proper standup. You almost never hear outrage about Jeselnik because his entire repertoire is “I’m saying the wildest shit I can think of and thats what you’re here for”

I have mixed feelings about Dave Chappelle because I genuinely believe in inclusivity which unfortunately includes having jokes made about you (which some communities do not appreciate) but he just did too much and it crossed a line into feeling like bullying behavior so I dont fuck with him at all anymore.

He has always been a FAR better writer than a performer.

But thats just it and what most professional comedians are talking about. They dont want you to be genuinely offended or upset, but if you go to a comedy show or watch a 60 minute special. You laugh at 55 minutes but get offended at the 5 that are about a topic YOU are sensitive about, that 5 minutes wasnt all of a sudden serious statements meant to be taken seriously. It was all jokes. They dont owe anyone an apology because that person didnt like parts of their work. They KNOW that not everything is going to land for everyone. If 90% of the audience are laughing, you are killing it.

The sad thing is how good some of those family cars that were so god damn pedestrian 20 years ago are now.

I drove one of the v6 Camrys with the 8 speed… 300hp and half a second faster over the quarter than the gt86… Sure its not manual.and isnt rwd but for a daily… it fucking slapped. “iT cAnT dRiFt” yeah I’m a 40yo man with two kids seats in the back, I’m not trying to tackle Mt Akina.

Why arent people buying more cars from the 70s?

Parts and servicing is a big problem now. A lot of shops wont touch anything they cant plug a diagnostic computer into.

Some parts are made of unobtanium and require complex workarounds or paying through the nose for parts.

I think thats partly because of the 80s and 90s when unibody manufacturing became very commonplace but powered everything and tons of tech wasnt commonplace yet.

People just assume cars kept getting lighter.

The guy was a flog, the killdozer was cool. Same as those 2 guys who made armored suits and robbed the bank leading to a 45 minute shootout in LA. Assholes sure, but ok… pretty epic at the same time.

“I’M GONNA JUMP!!!”

“Go for distance! Make sure you land on public property!”

I dont hate cops, I hate that they dont live up to the image they want us to believe and be worthy of the respect that they think they are owed.

Its actually sad that a dystopian facist parody such as Judge Dredd is actually fairer and more just than what we have now.

What if I buy the genuinely good premium mix?

I have a 6yo who loves to help. Less steps makes more good.

The ONLY thing GM does really well is fuckoff huge trucks… in the middle of a fuel crisis.
