I don't know anyone who's used IRC in the last fifteen years at least.

At least back when I used IRC, it wasn't indexed either. It was just an alternative to AOL Instant Messenger or Yahoo Chat.

Well, NPR did an entire article of 20 protest songs that came out in 2020. Looks like they might have made a Spotify playlist of them at one point too.

Here are 30 protest albums that came out in the first half of 2022

Here are 50 protest songs from 2023.

These are just results from pretty simple Google searches. 'protest songs year'.

It Takes Two.

There's a point where your characters brutally murder the only nice thing thing in the entire story while it's begging for its life (your characters are pieces of shit, but the gameplay is good, so you can kind of ignore it). It happens to be the characters' daughter's favorite stuffed elephant.

Then your characters dance gleefully in their daughter's tears and show no remorse at their daughter crying or any emotion other than woe is us, our brutal murder didn't work.

Seriously, one of the most horrific things my husband and I have ever played through in a game. It made us feel sick. We stopped playing after that. The best thing I can do for that little girl is for her shitty ass parents to never waje up so she becomes an orphan. That's honestly a better outcome for her than having to live with her shitty abusive parents another day. I only wish it had been earlier in the game so we could have gotten refunds.

I can't believe they market that game to play with your kids and put that scene in it.

Our Costco checks your member ID before you can use the self checkout.

I feel like all of those have longer preparation times.

I disagree. If you work at a dealership, you should know everything there is to know about the cars your dealership stocks. I'll give leeway to trade-ins from other car makers, but if you work at a Chevy dealer and you can't tell me about Chevys, you're a bad salesman and you're not going to make commissions.

I figured they just read Lesbian as Lebanon/Lebanese and got confused.

Sort of. Netscape released the program's source code and Firefox used that as a base, but it wasn't like they took Netscape and just changed the name to Firefox like your comment implies. They were competing browsers for a while.

You and I pronounce 'quay' very differently.

This is sort of like saying a parent shouldn't want a punishment on someone who murdered their kid because they need to forgive in order to cleanse their soul or some other religious bullshit.

Perhaps if he weren't an evil motherfucker, people wouldn't wish ill of him.

In terms of time returned, gas, wear & tear, etc., I would consider being told to go back to the office as a pay cut.

If I'm being asked to sit somewhere else, then I would definitely want to be compensated for that.
