Even as a kid, the thought of going to Disney never appealed to me, and I always loved theme park rides and carnival shit.

Maybe not now, no.

On the other hand, I remember people debating on forums and newsgroups 20 years ago whether 1000 Mbps Ethernet was "overkill" for home networks, because Internet connections didn't even come close to being that fast.

Mangodownahole.

it's funny because once the happenings actually started they insisted the disease was fake

The thing is I know quite a few conservatives (mostly family members and people I work with) who were initially scared about the news reports of covid deaths during January and February of 2020. Then Trump and RW media pundits made it clear what their stance on covid was, and they all fell in line saying it was fake or overblown.

These people are all told what to think.

Reminds me of when one of the local news channels in my city did a story about how viewers were blowing up the station's phone claiming to see a ghost moving about in view of the station's outdoor weather camera. They did some investigating and it turned out a spider had built its web across the camera's lens. The "ghost" was in fact the spider showing up as an out-of-focus grey blob moving across the camera view.

Yeah, approaching planes with their landing lights on look like points of (relatively) stationary light when they're far away, but as they get closer the lights are angled away from your field of vision and are less intense, and it's obviously a plane.

I live near an airport and to this day I still mistake approaching planes for bright stars.

Yeah, those Kraft slices can't be called cheese, at least not officially.

I don't even think they should even be called "slices" because I'm pretty sure they're injection molded into that shape and not sliced off a block like real cheese would be

Lmao when I was like 8 I attempted to make my own pizza using bread dough and spaghetti sauce. I topped it with Kraft yellow slices because my kid-brain assumed "cheese is cheese."

I regretted it on the first bite.

The one cool thing he did was not stop the guy who robbed the small business tyrant.

I'm sure if any anti-fascist rhetoric was taught alongside it would be framed in an "ackshualee, Hitler and Mussolini were leftists" sort of way.

A ton of people already push the "did you know Nazi means National SOCIALISM?" line.

Motherfuckers saying "diagreements" like this guy got killed over his pizza topping or ice cream preferences or something.

The news media has gotten so soft and politically correct these days. Can't even call for the death of the wealthy anymore without someone getting offended.

Ah, so that's why AT&T stopped fiber upgrades in my town in 2022 or last year. Which is disappointing to say the least, and I live on a main road too.

Hopefully this won't lead to Spectrum (my current provider) shuffling their feet on implementing high split service, now that their main competitor is opting for inferior 5G home internet for half their customers. High split would allow for symmetrical upload/download and faster than gigabit speeds.

Maybe something like this but fatal?

I'm guessing it was some kind of astrology thing. People used to blame deaths on planets and stars being in certain areas of the sky.

The company I was working for back in 2018 canceled Christmas bonuses. The only time they ever did so in their 40+ year history. Other than some bullshit platitudes from upper management about how everyone in the company has to make sacrifices that year, it was never explicitly said why. Some of us suspected it had to do with the tariffs at the time, since we import a lot of steel.

This, however, seems a bit too on the nose. I feel like management would never come out and straight up blame the tariffs like they are here.
