    Wow that's fucked up. Like could you imagine having to have that dude tell you he's about to try and go to bone town?

    "Uhh thanks John, god I fucking hate the courts."

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    Sitting here at knitting group.

    Old lady who is a rabid Trump supporter uses the terms "Indian time" and "Orientals".

    I'd try to explain why she shouldn't but it is absolutely not worth the hassle and it won't change her mind.

    Yeah also he wasn't convicted of the rape he was accused of. The judge imposed a penalty based on what exactly? God damn england way to have a shittier system than US.

    Dude knit... I am sorry but that made me lol. I know it shouldnt. I tend to give old white ladies leeway though. Some of the things my Native grandma said would choke a donkey.

    So the article says he mentioned to medical staff that he apparently choked a woman out and had thoughts about killing her, but it also mentions how he's also not allowed to discuss sexual fantasies with medical staff without a 3rd party

    I mean, the dude could be a creep. I don't fucking know. all I know is reading between the lines it sounds like he shared a sexual fantasy with medical staff during the case and he's into choking and that got used against him as a real thing instead of a fantasy?

    It's all very muddled.

    Admitting what I don't know, how I've fucked up and possible points of failure has made me super excellent business man. I feel like it just completely blows people's minds. Then I make funny joke and caper with my bells and sceptre.

    It is fucking ridiculous how much they trust me with everything. They want me to take over coding and running the companies entire point of sale system.

    It sounds like a lot of work but I'm pretty sure I can somehow do what I always do and make it into 20 minutes of work a day. My main fear is frantic calls at 9am on a Saturday morning. There is literally, LITERALLY no percent chance I would answer that call or even hear it. None.
