The Random, Meaningless Announcements Thread 3!

So far the BBC is the only source I've seen reporting the the vape-related deaths are tied to THC vape pods, and I just checked again and the CDC seems to agree with this. But no one else is mentioning it, and people who vape regular stuff are being pushed into black markets and products with even less regulation than what we had.

It's up to us ancient ones to instruct today's youth on the finer points of life.

If that's the case, you need not teach the youth but Indiana in general. Blame Indiana for me not knowing so much of everything that I've had no idea what it is over the years, such as fashion labels and names. I didn't live under a rock or in a cave, I lived in the middle of a bunch of damn corn fields. At least here they're "out there" and haven't invaded to snuff out life and turn into a dreary zombified hell.
Instead of weeds, maybe you and Revoltingest should go take out all your rage against plants on corn? Just imagine if you take that time and energy and spend it eradicating a plant that is a killer of Life?

To appease you, the first re-education camps will be set up in Indiana after the glorious victory of the revolution.

Ya know.....it's hard to accept that advice from a

There's always a problem when the alphabet for
another language is the same, a word is adopted,
but the pronuncian conventions differ.
"Minestrone" is a good example.
The singular consonant after the "i" would usually make
the "i" long in English. And a reader would see the common
word, "mine", preceding the also common, "stone".
Some words become no longer Italian, but rather English
words with an Italian origin, eg, "pistachio", "baloney".

Ben Casey never joked.
He had his sense of humor surgically removed.
