I once went to Wendy's drive thru and my "burger" had no meat. Just the bun, lettuce, tomato, etc. I kept it in the box and drove back after work. I showed it to the manager and his head tilted sideways in that curious dog kind of way. He couldn't believe it.
I don't often complain when my food orders are wrong, because people make mistakes and I'm almost always gonna eat it anyway...
...but I just ordered a Caesar salad where they forgot the cheese and the croutons
It's literally just a bowl of lettuce 🤪

Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of a Dividend that day, I can tell you!
“The dividend will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldronaii, the dividend came as a large and moving Torb! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the Meketrex Supplicants they chose a new form… that of a Giant Sloar!”

Nothing ever "comes back." The future can embody better angels of past and present and newer angels.
Hmm: Ms Kendzior said: “the last things I posted were excerpts from my substack newsletter articles”. From her most recent “When I loved New York”: “for example, arrest war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu”. I wonder if that phrase gets you banned? sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/when-i-lov...

I am a GenX nerd who had to memorize the Latin names of logical fallacies in a logic class. Other students didn't, but I did.
I think we need a new Latin name for a fallacy that goes, "This position is legitimate or true because ChatGPT said so."

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Lettuce exploding off the shoulder of my ironed uniform. I watched pickles glitter in the dark near the Vanderbilt Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
