Anon is a good samaritan

First responder here. The DNR doesn't mean a damn thing until it is literally in your hands. Until that time you respond as though there is no DNR. If you're wrong and they did have one but just didn't have it on hand then you accidentally save someones life, you're still legally in the clear, and I guess they can just die sometime later. But if the DNR turns out not to be real/legitimate and you didn't act just because you were told there was one then you just killed someone and you're completly fucked.

If you have a family member that has a DNR then be damn sure everyone knows where that thing is because unless you have it physically there when they are dieing then it doesn't mean anything.

Of course in places like nursing homes there is a different procedure. They know who has one on file and they will usually tell dispatch about it before the ambulance is even sent. But if it happens just in your home or someplace then the ambulance crew can't just take your word for it; they need the document in hand.

Gov. Tim Walz doesn't own a single stock

Reply in thread

Everybody in MN has been saying Walz needs to run for president for years now. But, being a relatively unknown guy from a flyover state it was kind of a pipe dream. I'm hoping now that everyone is seeing him, getting to know him, and obviously loving him that he'll get his chance in 4 years to run for actual president.

Or some cheap plastic from Amazon Marketplace...

His first wife is kinda cute in a dorky way even in that unflattering picture. His second wife looks like a blow up doll.

Although your captions do still make sense considering, back when I was still buying stuff off amazon, the amazon basics stuff was surprisingly good quality compared to most of the other garbage on there.

Is this a Maggot and, if yes, what kind?

Grain moth larva. Good luck. The damn things are a pain to get rid of once you have them. You'll want to pitch any food that isn't 100% air tight sealed (bags or boxes of cereal, rice, flour, sugar, noodles, etc.) and then clean out any cabinets really well to make sure you get rid of as many eggs as possible. After that make sure you don't leave any food unsealed for the next few months because odds are they will keep popping back up ocasionally for a bit and if they can get into anything when they do then the infestation starts all over. As far as infestations go they aren't the worst to deal with but they are anoying.

Bribery schmibery. Make them pay for their stupidity

When I worked IT, our honeywell rep used to swing by at random and bring the entire building doughnuts. And I'm not talking gas station doughnuts, I'm talking doughnuts from the best bakery in the state (which happened to be local). Perhaps, not surprisingly we used a lot of honeywell stuff. It isn't hard to bribe IT guys.

Just because the republican party is a cult doesn't mean the democrat party is. That's called projection. Most democrats I know will tell you that Biden is a senile old shitsack who never should have been president except the alternative was the XXL facist umpaloompa.

It's common resturant lingo but fast food is completely different from resturant work. Also "86" literally has the same number of characters as "no". They could have put down "no cherries" with the exact same ease. They decided to play a stupid game so they won a stupid prize, a stupid amount of cherries.

Anon lives in the midwest

My grandpa rents some of his fields out to an amish guy who also rents a lot of other fields in the area. The amish in our area are known to be pretty loose with their rules so my grandpa wasn't surprised when the guy showed up with combine harvester but he was kind of surprised with how new it was. My grandpa asked him how he could drive a combine when they weren't allowed to drive cars. To which the amish guy responded, "Well, I don't actually drive the combine; it drives itself. I just sit in it."

The floor is lava

Yeah no. I'll take cold over heat any day. At least when it's cold I can just add a few layers or do something to mitigate it. When it's hot theres only so many layers I can take off without becomming a sex offender.
