Izzy’s a scarf and barfer. She gets half a can of cat food at a time, five times a day. If I put a whole can down for her, she’ll eat the whole thing and then come down with a screaming case of the walkin’ pukes.

Fry was too much of a shlub to have an AmEx card.
It was Discover.
If they seriously ONLY take credit cards and can’t be paid via bank draft, cash, personal check etc. you should be talking to your government.
The uninstall button. That’s where the real magic happens.
Your utilities won’t take checks. Sure.
Then stop buying things.
I can offer a clue.
Discover was Sears’ in-house charge/credit card. It got spun off by itself but a lot of companies never really started accepting Discover.
American Express, their whole thing is exclusivity. It’s the card you use to pay at fancy places. They charge merchants more in service fees, so a lot of places just don’t do business with them.
Stop buying things. Go to your bank and withdraw cash. Write checks.
Catch a goose and catch an octopus. Wring the ink out of the goose, pluck a feather out of the octopus, dip the feather in the ink, and write a check like they did in the good old days.
Nope. It’ll never work. Because when I walk into the voting booth, how do I KNOW FOR A VERIFIABLE FACT that this machine here in the booth with me is running the published software?
Computerized voting will always be a mistake.
The phrase “voting machine” is also a problem.
The JFK conspiracy community apparently was fixating on this guy visible in the background of some of the film. On a bright sunny day in Houston Texas, he’s wearing a formal suit and carrying an umbrella.
Apparently he was doing so as a protest against JFK because something something a character with an umbrella was a common symbol in political cartoons at the time?
I think I’ve read that it was either intentionally written kind of dumb, like it sounds poetic but it’s the kind of thing a white guy who has never been to Africa would say.
Annie are you walking? Annie are you walking? Are you walking, Annie?
I love that lyric, it’s so supid.
I know that I must do what’s right, sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti.
Mount Olympus (assuming we’re talking the one in Greece and not the one on Mars) is like 3,000 feet tall, Kilimanjaro is 7,000 feet tall. Kilimanjaro would put Olympus to shame, except Olympus is whiter than Kilimanjaro.
Also, you can’t see Kilimanjaro from the Serengeti. There’s a small area where the summit is above the horizon but the air is too hazy.
I mean, partying every day just results in Slurms McKenzie.
And that is a non-solvable problem.
It’s almost like we’ve run this experiment before at massive scale in real world conditions, and that experiment yielded data.
Extremely close, because it’s happened before.
Literacy tests at the polls were used as a tool to keep black people from voting, often by handing them different, harder tests.
There’s an entire instance called lemmynsfw.
