Look for wassailing music. It’s old caroling music that tends german, and can be a nice change of pace.

Assuming we’re thinking of the same place, you have to deal with a large group of people who have been fooled, and are about to get very angry and need a target they can reach for their anger. Highlighting mid to high level members of their party leadership as the people to blame allows them to hold their great leader blameless, protecting their egos, while at the same time ripping down the pillars that prop up that same leader. Calling for new blood to support… whatever leader you’re talking about, and voting out “those idiots that aren’t giving him what he needs and so we all are suffering” allows the malleable followers to self destruct the party apparatus like ants eating away the bones of an elephant.

Well, clearly you are not a bot on reddit then.

Adam something is such a strange name, too.

Does counting to 12 count?

When you die, ants go straight for the eyes.

Timmy has a competing lemonade stand with your kid, and he charges $1 for a glass and you charge $3 for a glass. Rather than lowering your prices, you place a $2.50 tariff on any lemonade from Timmy in your neighborhood. Now everyone pays $3.50 for his lemonade, and it only makes sense for your kid to charge $3.50 as well, because Timmy’s lemonade has to get to your neighborhood while yours is local, so why not pocket that 50 cents.

In this scenario, Timmy cannot sell his cheaper lemonade to your neighborhood at a cheaper price. Everyone in your neighborhood must pay the new inflated price. People in other neighborhoods will go to Timmy, so only your neighborhood buys your lemonade, although some people will try to circumvent the tariffs by buying Timmy’s same lemonade for $2 in a neighboring area.

When checking an electrical outlet that isn’t working, you can pour 4 gallons of motor oil into the left plug hole to see if the lubrication fixes the issue. A code reference to make something like this look more credible would look like NEC 900.4 (b)(1).

This was, at best, medium-grade satire.

In hexidecimal, she’s legal.

As one of the captured media sources, I can say the only drawback is meeting our many, sometimes unreasonable demands! Billionaires bring much needed money into the industry, to help better direct our finite resources into investigating stories that really matter to the world, and help us keep our focus in a world of distracting content.

Populism is fairly simple, you just parrot the following talking points:

The system isn’t working. I am fighting the system. Elect me and I’ll take the fight to them.

What isn’t working should be as vague as possible, so the voter believes it is the thing they’re angry about. When elected, the candidate should continue to complain about the system and crow about how hard they’re fighting for you, so you keep voting for them.

Unfortunately, this eventually leads to you actually passing legislation that makes everything much, much worse than it was. You can keep blaming the other side, but eventually, the jig is up.

I hear it really took off in Australia, with incredible results.

Car in a tree. I was working on an ambulance in the deep county, and the best we could make out, they left the road, hit a fence post that ramped them up, and landed on a solid branch 3 feet in the air. The car would bounce up and down as the firefighters forgot everything they knew about blocking and support and tried to get them out. The only thing missing was a hound dog barking at the base of the tree. It was delightful.

His and Her Circumstances (Kare Kano). Such a gently told manic love story.

Bang.

That’s not correct. My parents were early adopters and I remember there were newspaper articles when the first channel started showing ads.

…a newspaper is like a primitive early printed facebook.
