What about apps? Some services are almost only used through apps, such as Zoom or Slack.

This kind of thing can happen when the demand for election fraud so greatly exceeds the supply.

"He does that every night when he falls asleep lol"

I said, "So do I."

I never thought it was possible to emotionally scar one's adult children. Now I see that was wrong.

That article must have been taken down. I put up one from the Guardian.

Yes, I am aware we have done this in the past, possibly not so distant past. But we don't need former officials yammering on about it.

Vogons. Hands down.

@Mik said in The Tire Slashers:

That's really, really stupid. What happens then is an even more polluting tow truck comes out to change the tires and the SUV goes on its merry way.

Silly Mik, you expect these guys to think it through?

I do.

Rabbits would hang their heads after hanging out with those guys...
