Many revolving doors in Australia have safety mechanisms where if you get too close to one door or another the whole thing either slows or stops

So when some douchebag tries to get in the same section as you, inevitably they also trip the safety, and then you are stuck in a revolving door trying to explain to someone to stay the fuck away from the door so you can gtfo

I keep going back and forth between hating revolving doors and thinking they are the greatest thing ever.

This is interesting. A reporter from More Perfect Union, an org that focuses on workers rights and corporate greed, reached out to me about an interview for a story they are doing on my past employer. Iā€™m conflicted. They found me through a subreddit where employees talked about the company. It was nothing Iā€™d be embarrassed to have my name tied to personally, but for my employment sake in this large but somewhat tight knit industry, Iā€™d rather not have a reputation of ā€œguy who talked bad about past employerā€.

They said theyā€™d keep me anonymous even though itā€™d be on video. I kind of want to do it, as I agree with their message.

Can they give you the ā€œsitting in the dark with a voice changerā€ treatment? That would seem to keep you pretty anonymous.

I like these but or course any time Iā€™m in one i think Iā€™m gonna be trapped inside it forever and archeologists hundreds of years from now will find my skeleton inside and write a paper about how it was some sex kink i was in to

We have a dead heat between brisket sandwich and BLT. Need voters!

BLT is more of a hot dog than a sandwich imo.

This giant (ugly) 4500 square foot house finished being built below us in August. They listed it for $1.5m, lowered it to $1.3m in September, and just listed it for rent for $6k a month.

Iā€™m no expert but I think you are supposed to be able to withstand a $1.5m home being on the market for more than 2 months. It didnā€™t look like a big developer. Not great for that guy!

Disappointment with the evolution of technology: Built-in apps on my 10 year old Vizio are slowly dying because the streaming services donā€™t support them anymore.

Amazement with the evolution of technology: The Roku stick I ordered at 4:30PM will be delivered today between 5-10pm free of charge.

Brisket

My best friends car got stolen from out front of his fireball while he was asleep on shift and they drove to his house and robbed it while his wife was asleep. Messed up his truck at home trying to hot wire it too. So both vehicles dead or gone. Stole their wallets so now they are scared about identify theft.

So nuts!
