Yeah, that’s a new one on me too. Where I’m from, “Merc” is usually gearhead speak for a Mercury not a Mercedes. Then again, I’m old and out of it, so what do I know.

That’s just not so. J.M. Barrie’s book popularized Wendy as a girls name, but it predates the book by centuries.
Good points all. Blizzard never has prioritized communication.
Too late. Someone at Blizzard should have remembered that “You never get a second chance to make amfirst impression.” No amount of FOMO will bring me back to this tedious grind disguised as an event.
To keep my family as happy and healthy as possible, as long as possible.
Nice, thanks for digging that up. It’s different than I remembered, but the important part is the same, Chewie got a medal.
I haven’t read it since middle school, more than 40 years ago, but I think I recall the Star Wars novelization (of A New Hope’s screen play) stated that Chewie was getting a medal too, but that he’s have to wait because Leia was to short to present it to him the same as she did for Luke and Han.
NA beer is not basically “beer flavored soda.” The only thing the two have in common is carbonation and even that is produced differently in each. Soda is flavored syrup mixed with water that has been carbonated by forcing CO2 through it. NA beer is brewed the same as regular beer, and carbonation occurs during this process. For some NA beers, fermentation is arrested before significant amounts of alcohol form, while others are subjected to a vacuum to lower the boiling point so that the alcohol can be boiled out with a minimum effect of the flavor.
The Pixel 7a replaced my Pixel 3a which I was running LineageOS on.
I miss LineageOS already and may soon install it on the 7a too.
Google Fi had an instant rebate offer on the Pixel 7a - $200 off if activated on an existing Google Fi account. I got mine for $300 plus tax. It’s last year’s model, but I’ll still get more than 4 years of security updates on it.
I suspect “cheese” would top, but ketchup would be highly ranked.
PSA: if you do stop to talk to someone at the supermarket, don’t do it in the middle of the fucking aisle. Between you, your friend and your respective carts, you create an obstruction for everyone else who just wants to get their damn groceries and get out.
I use a kettle at home, but I’ve used a microwave at work. I don’t understand what’s remotely laughable about doing so. Boiling water is boiling water.
I’ll tell what is laughable is how America restaurants typically serve hot tea. They draw a small metal container of hot water from the spigot on the side of the coffee maker, and bring it to the table with an empty cup and a teabag. By the time the bag goes in the water, the water is far too cold to infuse properly.
I can’t dispute that, but in fairness, there are quite a few of the original Sherlock Holmes stories where the reader couldn’t be expected to solve the mystery. The Adventure of the Red Headed League is one such, as I recall, though it has been quite a while since I read it.
For me the fun of the show is in the chemistry between actors and in the development of Sherlock’s character as someone who discovers his own humanity and eventually forms connections with those around him.
Elizabeth Keen in Black List. Writers constantly told us how brilliant and special she was, then showed her acting like a dimwitted, hormonal teen.
Parker Quink. It dries quickly, flows well and generally behaves well in most pens, even those otherwise prone to clogging. It’s inexpensive, decent looking ink. Nothing special or fancy, just good ink.
I’ve heard him introduce himself in a video, pronouncing his name as you would a hair comb.

At least read the article. Literally the second sentence reads:
“The agency said that it is taking “urgent” steps to increase compliance such as auditing more high-income taxpayers as well as businesses and partnerships. “
It goes on later:
“ The IRS has said it won’t increase audits on households earning less than $400,000 annually.”
The Mercury Eight was a runner in its day.
