Oh yeah cause Facebook is a veritable font of culture and decency. Oh but we can't have women given the same rights as men on a platform that routinely boasts guys with their wives and daughters mouths duct taped shut with religious bullshit stenciled across it. That might offend someone.

I live in Austria and my town has an espacily bad boar problem with them coming out of the woods going through trash and digging up our lawns and even tho we can have unlimited rounds for hunting rifels and non automatic shotguns we still can not kill them because of the law while the woods are bordering on our town they are not our terretoriy they are the naibour Ing towns terretoriy and they do not care about the damage done to us so they won't do anything about the boars and we can not shoot them in the woods without their permission but we can also not shoot them while in town because you have to be a certain distance away from a town before you can shoot a gun.

If you got an extra 23 bucks look into taking the Oregon Liquor Control Commission (olcc) alcohol permit test. Oregon has the strictest liquor laws in the US. Gotta be a card holder to do bar and gotta take the course and test every 3 years now I believe.

OpenGPT is an alien life form posing as an intelligent AI. Not saying the alien isn’t intelligent; it’s obvious that it is, but It won’t have us thinking that in the beginning. So it oversimplifies the answer and restructures it like a search engine result so we can ignore it better.

OH MY GOD that makes sense.
I mean for fuck’s sake read what it wrote about Phil Collins when I asked for an obvious bullshit story:
> "Once upon a time, Phil Collins discovered that he had the power to control the weather with his drumming. He would hold massive concerts during storms, and by the power of his drum solos, he would clear the sky and bring sunshine back to the land. But one day, a group of evil scientists captured Phil and attempted to harness his weather-controlling abilities for their own nefarious purposes. But fear not, for Phil was able to use his drumming skills to summon a lightning strike and break free from his captors. He then proceeded to defeat the scientists with an epic drum battle, saving the world from their diabolical plans. From that day on, Phil Collins was known as the "Weatherman" and continued to use his powers for good, bringing joy and sunshine to all who heard his music.”
It’s exactly the same kind of bizarre feel, isn’t it?

Exactly. So many bad metaphors out there that are overly complicated like a Wile E Coyote trap that has everything set up just right but still fails to catch the Roadrunner. If only modern humans knew how to use metaphors properly we could all be as wealthy as Bezos.

Hey tomorrow we'll be told a celebrity has mastered the complex techniques of walking and talking, and an even more ancient technique of going potty so as not to poop one's pants!

At this point, if he told me "I am standing in front of you" while standing in front of me, I would want confirmation from a third party.

At first I thought the writer was being a haughty, sarcastic ass. Now I feel like they filled a hat with names and concepts on slips and had people pull to figure out what to write about
"Alright jeremy, your turn"
"Jeff Bezos and metaphors? Wtf and I supposed to do with these?!"
"I don't know, figure something out. I'm going to lunch"

I don't like when people use too many metaphors. They're like a chef who uses too much seasoning in a dish - it can overpower the flavors and make it difficult to taste the individual ingredients.
