I do the same in stores. If there's no prices listed I'll just walk away. I absolutely hate surprises at the register.

Further in the article.

Dr Michael said medical staff did not need to see a snake to know how to treat patients.

"We can determine if you need anti-venom and if so, what anti venom you need based on clinical signs, blood tests and also the snake venom detection kits that we keep here at the hospital," he said.

"We're actually not trained to identify snakes, and so it's not helpful. "It just puts the staff at risk as well as yourself."

Because they want the "win." They don't give a shit about justice.

A company I worked for put them on all their vehicles one year to try and cut down on deer damage to our trucks. (About 45 vehicles or so)

Deer collisions went up immediately. At best they didn't work, at worst it was actively spooking them... either way they were removed shortly thereafter and the incident rates started dropping soon after that.

I accidentally added blue fluid to pink fluid when I refilled my car, now every time I change lanes my car goes into a gender reveal party mode.

His "plans" are probably to stir up shit, mess with elections, sabotage, bribe people in positions of power, stage civil unrest... all the things he was going to do anyway.

The only difference is he's whining about it in the open instead of doing it behind everyone's back.

Has anyone tossed a brick at the windows yet? Or has that debacle been swept under the rug?

They like to whine and cry that piracy makes them lose money, but the opposite is true (at least in my case.) I wouldn't have bought half the games I did if I hadn't first pirated them to try them out. I'm certainly not tossing $60+ dollars on something I "might" like otherwise.

A plausible sounding article I read stated that his lawyers knew from the start that they didn't have a chance of winning anyway. This whole thing is just theater to try and stall as long as possible to buy time until the election.

I'm sure they've already got plans to cheat their way to a "victory" on that front as well.

You're sure proving her wrong, right Elon? ...Right?

You're not safe even if you're white. If nothing else they'll target people who like the color blue just to keep some "enemy" in their sights.

White people are just further down the list of easy targets. At that point they'll start by hair color and nitpick their way down from there.
