The bridge doesn't give a hoot what the designer looks like, feels like, has between their legs.

The bridge only responds to physics.

Sort of deconstructed hash -- I like it.

Enough problems such as these, and the program could have a very bad end.

Can't say I'm a hash person. Just don't generally like the texture of it, for some reason.

Ukraine update: DIL's parents joined up with a convoy and got out of the occupied area. Now the Russians are attacking the city they fled to. Their plan was to head west this morning but I'm not sure if they were able to. 

Sorry the linky thing isn't working for me.

Sounds like my former friend (the one who broke off our friendship over politics).  He'd get hired, then within a few weeks or months start loudly declaring that senior management/the company's owner were doing everything wrong; then be stunned when he was sh*tcanned a few months later.

I don't know if there's a name for that rule, but yes, it's a rule.  "If more than 4, maybe 5, maybe 6 people in your life are absolute, intolerable, flaming assholes... the problem is most likely you."


(See, e.g., the Islamists, who hate everybody.)
