uninstalled Chrome a looooong time ago on my Win 10 machine

Yes, yes it was. You just don’t remember when. Morality is learned, for good or ill. And as I said to someone else, it doesn’t absolve them so much as it explains them.

You didn’t read what I wrote, did you? Or if you did, you ignored it.

No worries, have a good rest of your day.

Who said it absolved them? It doesn’t. It explains them. And fyi, I’m not American.

Except for a lot of people it’s never put to them that way. “Join the Navy, See the World.” “Learn a career in the Army” “Want to go to college? Serve your country for 4 years and have you tuition paid by the GI Bill.”

Should people know better? Definitely, but the sad truth is that a very large number of them didn’t know better because it was never put to them the way it was put to you.

If 9/11 taught us anything it is that there is nothing a man cannot do if he no longer fears the consequences.

Better idea.

Get a Costco executive membership. They will let you return anything, no matter how old it is. I should know, I work in a Costco processing returns in the back, which is where I’m typing this.

Last week I processed a return on a couch that was 4 years old. The member got a full refund of 5k, and we’re going to eat that because the vendor has a credit limit of two years.

Costco’s internal numbers say that people who return stuff spend twice as much over the course of a year compared to non-returners and they will do anything to keep that sweet membership fee coming in. So you can literally recycle your entire house on the cost of a single yearly payment.

The Krishna temple in Burnaby used to have a wonderful vegan restaurant. Absolutely amazing food.

I mean… it is.

Looking at this directly from a viewpoint of what is “natural” for the human body, being vegan is unnatural.

Being an omnivore is. Our entire digestive system is such that the natural diet of the human body is an omnivorous one and it does best when treated as such. And that means a small amount of animal fats, proteins, trace minerals, and amino acids in one’s diet.

I’m not going to argue morals or ethics, because that wasn’t what the post was about. It’s what’s about what is “natural.”

Yes, you may disagree with me. Strenuously, and just know that I respect you and hope that you and yours have an excellent day wherever you happen to be on this flaming cannonball of a planet we call home.

Cool. The thin kind cut into squares I can get here. It’s the deep dish no one offers and your description kinda explains why

I’ve never had Chicago style pizza and I have no idea where to get one here on the west coast of Canada.
