The major freeway that runs through our "little hamlet" was shut down most of yesterday because of flooding.

Yes, that's right - flooding.

 
Pfft that's practically every year now in Hazeltucky.

Hazeltucky? Haven't heard that one. LOL.

We still have family around Detroit, so we heard about this. We used to live near the first scene and I drove 696 every day, I don't even want to think about the "canyon" through Royal Oak and Southfield flooding. There would be no way to get out quickly.
 
Writing a mathematics assessment test is much more difficult than I initially thought.
Not the thinking up the problems part, more the "what should I include and in what order?" part.

I do a lot of advocacy work at my job to raise awareness of accessibility issues and to improve access to services and ensure physical building services are improved.

I just had the strangest conversation with my mum. She told me that I shouldn’t self identify as disabled.

I told her that everyone knew when I went on LTD/have accessible parking/use a cane. The cat was out of the bag some time ago. So, I plan to help make sure that no one ever has to fight to get parking/get LTD/other struggles that most people have no idea exist.

I would have said something like, "I didn't self-identify, my doctor made that call."
 
This is probably the most interesting recruiter email I've ever gotten.

It's for mid-level dev, so I'm not even going to write them back. But it sounds neat :D
 
Confessed murderer who was supposed to be in confined psychiatric treatment found just wandering around town.


Yeah, that's about right for SC. Dump him in a mental facility and forget about him. If he hadn't gone back to the area he committed the heinous murders, no one would have noticed and the problem would have been successfully swept under the rug. You know, until he had another episode and killed someone else.

And don't worry, absolutely nothing will change because of this. Those laws and everything they should have followed when releasing him? No one will be punished and there will be no procedural changes. After all, it's not like anyone died AGAIN. :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

Are you sure no black people or democrats were in charge of any part of the structure where things went wrong? Sacrificial lambs and scapegoats and all that.
 
I just realized the episode of the Simpsons where Marvin Monroe makes a cameo appearance where the joke was that he's been out of the show for so incredibly long that they had just started referring to him as dead is now less than halfway through the length of the series.

Huh. So apparently one of the react-type content people that I watch regularly... got arrested.

And gave a video update from jail.

 
Well, thanks but that doesn't narrow it down ;) I get a few of those, and I follow a LOT of those folks. :p
Vkunia made a comment in the video about how Ned should've told the teacher he was doing homework, and you commented that claiming to be watching porn was more plausible. I liked it cause we also had a similar discussion here on HF.

Vkunia clearly has never gotten in REAL trouble in her life, and doesn't know the trick of covering up a horrific act by "admitting" to a lesser infraction.
 
Sometimes...I swear, once a week or so I'm moving to an alternate universe where some basic fact is just suddenly different.
oh, I know, you're thinking of the Berenstain/stein thingie.
While similar, I'm still talking about something different. I will give an example.
Today, it was announced to get quite warm here. So I got the fans back out of the basement, cleaned them a bit, etc. Now, all the fans (ventilators, whatever) in our house have remotes. And all of these remotes take batteries. To avoid batteries leaking and to conserve them a bit, I take the batteries out of the remotes at the end of the season and plug them back in next spring. So, I go to get the batteries I have for the fans.
This isn't some I'm-not-paying-attention-and-grab-whatever-is-near thing: I have a baggie clearly labelled "FAN REMOTE BATTERIES" with all the batteries I removed in my drawer. And because you're always told not to mix and match batteries, I even have them tied together with elastic bands per 2 or 3, depending on the remote.
In this bag are ALL AA batteries.
I am now trying to fit these batteries back into the remotes, and while they do, indeed, take 2, 2 and 3 batteries....They're ALL AAA.

What? How?! Did gnomes replace the batteries in my desk drawer? Is someone playing a trick on me? But....Literally nobody but me knew those batteries were there. My wife doesn't know or care, if asked she'd probably assume I used new batteries, or, if I kept them, that I'd put them with my DIY supplies or with the fans or with the other batteries - not randomly in my office desk drawer.

Now here I have a bunch of batteries which come from I DONT KNOW WHERE, I have no idea if or how much they've been used, and I don't have enough AAAs to put in all the remotes.

:aaah: :aaah:
