Yeah but the OOP doesn't seem to understand it wasn't about the monarch himself. It was the parliament which contained no representatives from the colonies, therefore nobody to stand up for them in political talks. Nowadays they have career politicians and outright fascists, therefore nobody to stand up for them in political talks. It's just a different flavor of the same oppression

I can't speak for anyone else, but if a company has ads that annoy me I will purposefully go out of my way not to shop there. It won't make me think of them when I go to buy shoes, and when the brand comes up in conversation my first though will be a negative one associated with their annoying ads because that's literally the only thing I know about them. Really can't see how that's a winning marketing strategy but I'm not gonna stop them from wasting billions on ads I'm just gonna block anyway 🤷‍♂️

I have a hard time believing that was anything more than complete incompetence on Russia's part. Wagner starts a firefight with mixed American and Syrian resistance fighters, to which the US responds by calling the Kremlin to ask if Wagner are acting on orders from them. Russia tells the US that Wagner are not under direct orders from them and to deal with them as they see fit, and Wagner proceeds to get their ass kicked like they usually do. To me that reads a lot more like the usual Kremlin incompetence than any sort of planned provocation

Look up pictures of Nairobi. They're not exactly living in the stone age

I think you should go take a nice walk. Could do wonders for you

Ranch contains no mayonnaise. It's base is buttermilk

In the US we have a lot of strawberry kiwi flavored drinks. Rarely just kiwi by itself though.

... this makes me slightly suspicious that you are, in fact, a deodorant taste tester.

And because of the little metal piece that would break off and prevent your phone from charging. You could just weasel it out with tweezers but most people would think their port was broken because they didn't know it was even an issue.

I'm with you. Those spring-latch-things on the micro just give up on life and the whole thing becomes useless or tears apart the port you try to plug them into. I say leave them in the past

Yeah I should have put a /s on mine, I don't actually think you were being elitist

The only reason you pronounce the H is because at some point the brits decided dropping the H made you sound low class. So congrats on perpetuating the elitism
