And they need to keep asking questions that piss him off.

I really miss our used book store. It was tiny but packed, and it had that smell.

So they are trying to force the company to admit, "no we are still committed to anti-consumer policies to boost profits", is that the point?

Listen, Im over here wearing my floaties, watching sales people doing a triple gainer off the high-dive. I'm not trying to pretend to be especially good with the social skills. All I'm saying is water is wet. Some people have an affinity to those sorts of skills, some don't. Some people work at it. Some can't. Everyone has to at least bathe though. That's a metaphor, but also not.

Why do you need to be forced by society to develop social skills?

Social skills is another way of saying the abilities required to function in a society. You might as well ask why do you need to learn to swim to get in the pool.

Why isn't putting your best forward enough?

Often it is, but to stretch the metaphor used above, they are going to be stuck in the shallow end.

My dad was a Coastie. He signed up during the Vietnam war. He liked to say 'we SAVE lives'.

I would vote for a slime mould over Trump. I genuinely believe it would make better decisions

There is plenty to be weary about another Obama term.

I was the younger brother. I was "willing" to do a lot of things I knew were bad ideas.

THIS MAN HAS A WORM IN HIS BRAIN.

How we allowed him to lead the HHS is beyond me.
