Pet peeves.
I'll start: Jackasses who have no real skill but send Very Important Emails asking for status updates and copy everyone to show how important they think they are being. The nice thing about consulting and being my own boss is that I can respond to all and tell said jackass to ask his or her boss to fill them in on what they don't know.Comments

While I wish I was making more, I don't miss stupid e-mails or thinking about how to respond to stupid e-mails.
My annoying customer was someone who placed a request then, when I had done it and sent the results, whined that that wasn't what she wanted because I didn't include things she never told me about to begin with.

Before I retired, my boss would send me an email asking me a question about the schedule. I would respond. Then another question. I would respond. Then...so on and so on. Her office was 2 offices from mine. I would finally get up and go to her office to answer any and all questions. Took maybe 3 minutes.
Next day....email question from the boss....

President Joe Biden first spoke of the mission during an address on Friday, in which he described military assets bringing Americans over the wall of the airport.
the original plan was for the Americans to gather themselves up at the Baron [Hotel] and walk through the Abbey gate. The gate is right here. So you can see from the hotel to the gate, Kirby said. but there was a large crowd established outside the Abbey gate a crowd, that, that not everybody had confidence in, in terms of their ability to walk through it. And so, local commanders on the scene took the initiative and flew these helicopters out there to pick them up.
Hum? I hope the local commander used the right pronouns. Ah they will probably bring the hero local COmmander up on charges any day now.

Children with a stronger capacity to discern people's thoughts and emotions based on their eyes alone exhibit greater social-emotional intelligence.
For children who habitually bite their nails or pick their nose, a mask could also be precisely what they need to kick the habit.
For older children, mask wearing can teach more sophisticated ethical concepts like duty and sacrifice

OK, so I guess we're back into saying: wear masks to protect others?
Because the latest mask push for the unvaxxed was so that the filthy-assumed-superspreaders wouldn't get their cooties on the vaxxed? They keep flipping on that one.
But all this other BS benefits is propaganda. Forced masks is not public servive -- that's akin to kids forced to do public service for school being called "volunteering."

My general work pet peeve is that nobody reads e-mails anymore. I'll e-mail a client a very short, simple, concise e-mail, tell them I need X, Y and Z and here are the blank forms attached to complete and return.
And get a reply "What do I need to do?"
Well, for starters, try reading the e-mail that you are replying to.
And no matter how many times you remind people that we're all working at home, so PLEASE "reply to all" because we rely heavily on group e-mails these days so we can all stay on the same page. At least half reply only to me.

Recovering lurker here. I'm currently trying to process the fact that the America I grew up in is, in pretty stark language, no more. It has been relegated to a pleasant memory I think of to draw comfort from, like my grandmother's cooking. Everyone was better back then; even the Democrats of old wouldn't have stood idly by and let what is now happening happen.
I do not know if this change was consciously sought after. I don't know if those that would have us live this way thought that the world would be somehow better. What I do know is that the effort required to make things right is now beyond simply voting wisely; this all goes beyond the scope of government. These are matters of the heart, of culture, of spiritual degradation. This will require prayer to set things right. If you think prayer is simply a child bowing his head in obedience and mouthing a trite little poem, you're sadly mistaken. It is warfare.
Wow, this is some REALLY good coffee to help me think this clearly. How you doin?

These "vaccines" are very leaky. And they target just a single spike epitope, and of the "Wuhan classic" virus, which doesn't even exist anymore. The virus has mutated and selected to something totally different.
Oh, coronaviruses mutate like crazy. This was known for years. The circulating virus has done a little mutational side step around the vaccines. Child's play for it.
Leaky vaccines are driving such vaccine resistance and escape.

I've been guessing 85% natural immunity the entire time. I happened to accidentally stumble over this the other day.
Market Ticker:
"We also know why there is no place on the planet that has seen >20% of people with significant, symptomatic disease from Covid-19. Not a single place has had that happen.. it simply was not possible as no more than 20% of the population was potentially susceptible to serious disease. Ever. Period."

What's neat about it? Pay attention to how often 80%/20% keeps coming up in infections, mask use, etc. Preaching to the choir, of course, but it's fun to put the numbers together. Continued...

The rollover by the Afghan army shows exactly how useless it is to try and impose a new way of living onto a culture that did not ask for it.
"Nation builders" -- social science majors just itching for another place to work over so as to give other holders of equally worthless courses of study a playpen in which to work their "magic". See, for example, the asshats still bleating that Afghanis need to guarantee that women must play an important in whatever governing system is set up there.

Turned out to just be some blah-blah about the main office in NY's building owners imposing a vax mandate for entering the building. Even 99% of our NY employees haven't been there in a year and a half, and probably never will be again.

That's a pretty bleak and scary speech that guy made there. Well, we're all going to find out if he's right. He gives the timetable of a "few months to 3-5 years" for the true fallout to be known. I pray he's wrong, but something very bad is going on with this aggressive push for vaccinations that aren't true vaccinations, imo.
Incidentally, he's not the only doctor saying this stuff. Others are sounding the alarm bells, but you have to go onto BitChute type places to find them. Can't have the public knowing anything.

Tucker had a segment on the "training" of the "afghan army". Nothing but but funneling money to defense contractors. Worthless. He had clips of our troops trying to train those guys. They were 90% illiterate. Couldn't and wouldn't follow basic instruction. 75% or better were high on opium.
There was a video of them trying to do jumping jacks. Looked like spastic retards -- couldn't get in sync.
All the data on how bad they were doing was kept secret (you see the contractors were private, not public -- proprietary data you see. Industrial secrets).
Whole thing was a joke. Nothing but funneling money to a bunch of corrupt contractors.

Not saying you should hate him, but he's not a victim. The guy has been monetizing the f#$% out of his time in office his entire career - that's what Hunter facilitated. He not only sold his country out to the highest foreign bidders, his loose lips after the Bin Laden raid got a coupld dozen SEALs killed when their helicopter was shot down. And then theres the creepy touchy stuff.
He was ushered into office *because* he is corrupt - his family and clients want to keep the grift going. They certainly didn;t do it out of love. He is getting exactly what he deserves - he use dhis country, now his handlers are using him. Karma.

Jr. Black is a hypochondriac-type. He's only 24 and I have really tried to convince him he doesn't need this non-vaccination vaccination. So far, he hasn't taken it and that's good. He's a healthy young man. He doesn't need it and the risk is far too great, imo. Good thing is he went to our family doctor to discuss it and our family doc told him the same thing.

It is pointless "duty" and "sacrifice". Kids are ordered to have a duty to sacrifice themselves to the State because the State says so.
If they make up some crap about "protecting others", they are basically asserting "Santa Claus" because there will be a point that this "protecting others" will be demonstrated to be "hurting others". What happens when people realize that there is no Santa Claus?

There are no live attenuated virus vaccines. Unless the Chicoms actually have something effective they've been keeping secret or something.
Want an actual sterilizing vaccine against 'Rona? You're gonna have to do one of them attenuated virus vaccines. Only problem is that takes years to do right, and probably won't make it.

Also related, if anyone in the US received a vaccine in the US, why would they need to wait two weeks?

I never understood why any President was supposed to be "working" around the clock on whatever crisis was presented that day.
Isn't that what the tens of thousands of bureaucrats, contractors and subject matter experts are lavishly paid to provide? And if the crisis has any of its origins in the presidency do you want a politician to be involved? The arsonist to be managing the fire?
The world is too far complex for "The President" to be involved - except when there is supposed to be a signature attached, and I expect that is exactly why Biden is sitting on the post. Having Xi Jinping or any of the Davos people's signature on an EO wouldn't (for now) fly we still need to fake legitimacy by auto-signing the fraud's signature on Buck Stops Here documents.

KTY was one of the first to get Moderna. Then hubby got Pfizer. They have no idea how much I pray for them
Now KTE wants to get the shot coz she thinks we might be able to visit family in NZ next Feb. I've been trying to convince her to wait, possibly for Novavax but that's indefinitely delayed in the US
I don't want her to get J&J (even though I got it) because she's right in the age group most likely to get a blood clot from it.

There is an outfit actually working on such a live, attenuated virus vaccine for Covid. It will be a nasal spray. It used "junk codons" to attenuate the virus.
Problem with that is there's a chance the virus can un-attenuate itself. Takes a while to makes sure it can't. Testing, waiting.
That's the only way to get to sterilizing vaccines.

For 1970s designed cars.
I believe the traditional protocol was for roads not signed according to regulations, to declare the speed limit to be 80% of what speeds were observed.

For that matter, does the President actually have to operate from D.C.? I get it, the seat of power and all that, but it'd be a good way to shed some of the bullshit by NOT residing fulltime at the White House. Operate from some undisclosed location in Texas with minimal staff. Don't fill 75 percent of the appointment slots and fire the rest. No access unless you're "on the list."
Like they do in North Korea. Only with better food.

That THAT could be consider the apex of accomplishment by anyone is evidence of a deep and pervasive rot in our society. And the legions of pierced, oddly-colored hair dyed, and "my pronoun" fit throwers are just icing on the cake.

Howdy, Cape Fear! I was down in Wilmington this past weekend with cousins visiting from NJ. We drove right past that intersection to their hotel on Eastwood Road on Saturday. Maybe it wasn't up yet, but we didn't see the billboard. It doesn't surprise me that it went up in Wilmington. As you know, the retired military down there love Trump and hate Biden with a white hot passion. I might go down again next weekend. I hope the billboard is still there.

That triggered an avalanche of mockery where the sane people built themselves absurd email signatures and belched out mountains of Important Sounding Email announcements.

He was going to the stock car races on Saturday and Sunday.
