Since nobody mentioned them yet, Strapping Young Lad - Detox.

Honestly though, anything that Devin Townshend touches is gold.

As someone who was unemployed until recently, all I can say to this is: Fuck Trump and those bullshit tariffs he unilaterally imposed. I was laid off the day they first came into effect, and their impact made finding a job in what used to be a very active sector of the economy a nearly six month ordeal.

I don't blame companies for adjusting to economic adversity and changing regulatory landscapes, nor do I personally blame Carney or the Liberals for not rolling out stimulus packages in that constantly changing and shifting landscape. I'm happy they are doing this now of course, but let's not forget that the sole culprit of this nonsense is that bloated orange wannabe dictator in Washington.

Obligatory "Beaverton is supposed to be satire".

Man, this is just the truth. Alberta conservatives actively seek to make things worse for everyone.

Alberta being Alberta I guess. You can always bet on then taking the most infuriating, backwards, and if possible racist decision possible for any situation.

I know not everyone in that province hates being reasonable but man oh man do they have a bunch of backwards assholes propping up the ever radicalising conservative party.

Nah, we got them fancy sliding tabs on those. I was talking about loading programs from tape LOL.

Same. I remember needing converters for these newfangled PS/2 connectors. Then again, I am old enough that I remember why floppies were called floppies, and used tape for more than just backup. And hard drives being as big as a shoe box and with less storage than you now have as CPU caches.

It's in the Ivan the Terrible vs Alexander the great video, in the verse by Frederick the great.

Right, ERB just referenced it. TIL I guess.

Is that an Epic Rap Battles reference in the wild?

And that's why I am in favour of abolishing the Nobel peace prize. It's a clearly politically charged award that rewards an individual's or group's actions during a particular snapshot in time, which they then get to have as their accolades for the rest of their lives.

And yes, you could make that argument for every Nobel prize, but unlike rewarding peace efforts that the nominee could undermine or even undo the next day after receiving the award, you can't un-invent a scientific breakthrough.

Thank you, this ruined my childhood in several ways as someone who grew up with culturally engrained Kalle Anka (Donald Duck) watchings.

That would be far to accurate for the GOP base to understand. In fact, Trump himself doesn't seem to understand this either.
