@joeo10 No-one bothered to make another pot of coffee so I am definitely not on a list labeled 'Alert'.
Off to have a "Please don't tell someone I might be interested in buying a tractor that was made at roughly the time Elvis Presley started puberty" conversation.
He means well but this is getting annoying.
@konrad I call the one that that lives two houses down, "Harold". You live in Germany, do you not? Have you ever spent any time here?

Of all the arguments to the place outside my office door. "Best place to get a pair of prescription glasses made?" Really?
@larand Going to have a better chance of finding that outside in the real world, face-to-face with real people. We build our own realities online. We mute what we don't want to deal with. I'm even guilty of that.
It's not a healthy way to maintain a society.
@larand …People have become too intolerant of world views they do not share. It's more than a little scary.
@larand Invest wisely for the first two. As for the last bit, I live in an area where a majority conceal carry. Solid meh about it as nothing to speak of happens.
Bigger social issues to tackle.
One would be kicking people out of the respective bubbles they build online and making them experience meatspace a bit more.
I think that's why our generation doesn't seem to fall into the batch*t stuff.
@larand Nowhere you can really go. This is a lot bigger than America. Me? I'm going to farm/garden/keep this clown car of an office going and hope for the best.
