Co-op (British grocery store chain) posted this product announcement on their Facebook page, playing on the British predilection for enjoying horrible sandwiches.

Even as a non-Brit, I thought it was reasonably clever, not to mention rather well made.

Not Ohio, but I did sleep on my car on the West Coast on and off for about a year and only got into trouble once. And I didn’t even get a citation, just an oral warning that this wasn’t permitted in that particular town despite there being no signs anywhere (it was written in the city code).

I will say, for all the shit that private property owners get on this site, Walmart is actually one of the places where this is the easiest and least problematic to do. I always tried to avoid private property in favor of more inconspicuous places but I frequently saw quite a few motorhomes parked on their lots after dark and they were still there in the morning, and I’ve heard from others that they’ll generally let you be unless you are causing some sort of ruckus there. Same goes for just sleeping in the car.

In general, if you’re not making a nuisance of yourself or parking right in front of a sign that prohibits overnight parking, you’ll most likely be okay.

That’s a long time ago. Didn’t that happen in the 90s?

Local doesn’t mean white. Baltimore is a white minority city, with whites making up scarcely more than 30% of the population.

That would be fun but unfortunately, the only thing that’s likely to happen is that your email will be ignored and/or automatically deleted.

It’s called diminishing returns in economics.

Basically, if you have very little of something, any additional amount of it will increase your satisfaction by a lot, but only up to the point of satiation, after which happiness will not increase further regardless of how much more you have.

But a three year old can understand this. Give them one ice cream, they’ll be delighted, give them ten, and they’ll start throwing up.

I’m already halfway there, I’m just lacking the garden

They REQUIRE you to send them via snail mail.

It even specifically states that email is not valid.

Fuck, I actually do have all of them.

Definitely pretty high quality. Both the acorn and the police hat match the style of drawing almost perfectly.

I used to be into sadism, necrophilia, and bestiality… but then I realized I was just beating a dead horse.
