Good call. I'll ask my boss to mail me the puzzle.

I love puzzles, but I'd hard pass on a puzzle of my boss's junk.

I read one of his short stories recently that followed one of the characters whose child died in Cujo. I love the idea of Stephen King completely forgetting he wrote that book and having to go back and read it to come up with characters for his later stories. Do you suppose while reading he was like "Damn this book is great, I wonder what'll happen next?"

Plus, Trump tweets in all caps. Not because he's angry all the time, but because he's old and that's the only way he can read the characters as he types them.

Exactly. It's just an insult to them.

A while back, one of my Trumper neighbors decided that she didn't use an elliptical work-out machine that she had bought over 2 years prior. She took it back to the store without a receipt and demanded that they give her money for it - not just store credit - even though it was well past the return date.

When telling me this story, she acknowledged her crazy behavior by saying "haha I was acting like such a liberal."

In her mind, it's as simple as "liberal = bad". The actual definitions of words mean nothing to them.

The Herman Cain Award was the only thing that got me through COVID.

Yeah Facebook was vastly different back in the day. Instead of having a shadowy algorithm deciding which posts to show you, you just got a chronological view of all your friends' posts. So during major events, you'd usually see lots of posts that taken out of context make absolutely no sense.

When Facebook moved to them deciding what you wanted to see, it completely changed the whole vibe.

Edited the order of events in my comment. Sounds like the confrontation didn't happen until after he grabbed his rifle.

This gif needs to be at leave 50 times longer.

I'd like to see the video as well. If anyone has a link, would appreciate it.

I dunno about that. The peacekeeper saw the dude go retrieve a rifle, confronted him, and he ran aiming the rifle at the crowd.

I suppose your argument is that the guy hadn't actually pulled the trigger when the peacekeeper acted? That seems insane to me.

The shooter and another person in a neon vest allegedly saw Gamboa separate from the crowd of marchers in downtown Salt Lake City, move behind a wall and withdraw a rifle around 8 p.m., Redd said.

When the two men in vests confronted Gamboa with their handguns drawn, witnesses said Gamboa raised his rifle into a firing position and ran toward the crowd, said Redd.

I'my first playthrough of Satisfactory, I was like "I'm gonna leave these trees up to not completely ruin this area and make things look nice." After a few playthroughs I was full on "is it faster to use explosive rebar or cluster bombs to remove the trees?"
