Things have been so bad lately when reading the news that I am actually happy to hear about what may happen to Queen Elizabeth II's dogs.
Anything but Trump.
Reading his tribute with to Queen made me wonder who really wrote it. It made sense and showed some empathy and compassion...must have been a ghost writer behind that.
Anyway - back to the Corgis.

The wife and I were rolling our eyes and laughing about that, "Who will care for the royal Corgis!?" I said that they should be put down,
as the royal staff certainly has no clue on how to take care of those dogs. /sarc
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

As recently as 2014 I would have scoffed at the idea that we are all part of a simulation. Not only do I think it's possible, but it seems possible our creators may have become bored and are now reduced to fucking with us.

How can anyone not realize that the whole "work until I retire" idea is completely retarded and unacceptable as a lifestyle? Is that really all you're here for? Why do you even exist if being a peasant is your whole existence? Keeping stupid worker-type people alive is inhumane. If you're not smart enough to be intellectually free and live life on your own terms, there really is not much of a ponit in you being here.

I just realized that for the game I'm watching, when the schedule said "Ohio" vs. Penn State, they meant Ohio University Bobcats, not the Ohio State Buckeyes.
I feel so deceived. By the looks of it, the Bobcats suck.

Just read the news that, after years of unemployment and living on state handouts, a 73 year old man in the UK got his first job.
