Southern drawl versus text-to-speech. Bedazzle of the scent tree.

So nice. My giardiasis just finished blooming, the whole yard smelled of it.

First they told us not to eat the yellow snow, now they're telling us not to stick spring rolls up our poop chutes. It's like doctors don't want us to find any joy in our lives.

First they invented great barrier reef, now they make great barrier ointment. My God what horrors and highlights, the hubris of humankind.

I live in a rural area outside of a small town in the southern USA. The local electrician, basically the guy almost everybody calls if they need basic residential electrical work, earns almost twice the high end of what that job listing is paying. Granted, he's basically on call 7 days a week and I'm sure his job isn't always unicorn farts and leprechaun rainbows, but he's his own boss and works his own hours.

ONLY CHILDREN NEED NOT APPLY

I completely understand.

I spent a semester of college working at Home Depot. It was a terrible experience and awful in so many different ways that I consider it my second worst job experience, only slightly behind the holier than thou "Christian business" that didn't pay its employees and actively committed fraud against employees, clients, and the government. 25+ years later, I still don't like to shop at Home Depot, it was so bad.

Those are pretty ladies and cute outfits! Hope they drink sufficient amounts of water and stay hydrated, else time may not be kind to their skin.

Nice try Steve.

Remember that time I discovered a major bug in Reddit that I reported dozens of times to the site's feedback form and directly to your user account but I never got a response about and it never got fixed (until I used the exploit in a way that directly affected you)? Well, if that rings a bell, then guess what? It's me again. Toodles.

This is just so inaccurate. Sometimes it's 90's reboots and remakes with talking animals, too.

Any pretty much any physical job comes with copious risks to your body and health, yet these types of employers typically don't pay for employee health plans nor do they pay enough for employees to comfortably afford their own. Why would anybody want to risk severing a finger, breaking a leg, getting bitten by a dangerous snake, a nail to the hand, etc if they don't have to, especially knowing they can't afford the treatment and it could lead to lifelong pain and disability?
