You guys are making me blush 🙃. I think I failed to mention how hot it’s been this week. It made it to 102 today. That’s pretty hot for a Michigan boy. Yes, it's been ridiculous. The only thing that saves it is the fact it's dry heat. Even so, I am happy that I have a 12 hr shift indoors so I avoid a lot of it.

I hope this isn't him! Nahhhhh. The bars don't open that early in the day. Some do! When I worked night shift at Jolly Rancher, we often went to the bar at 7 am when we got off.
tractor - I'm about an hour south of you right now. I am waving in your general direction.

Nothing to do with the thread in and of itself, but can people please stop "yelling" in thread titles?
It's just not necessary. In fact, I consider it rude, and I may start editing them. <gives AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP the side eye for being a repeat offender, though at least not all the time>.

Another dedicated Samsung person here. Currenty using the Note 8. My brother liked it so much, he got one too. I love the ability to use a stylus now and then if I need it. Beyond that, I just think Samsung makes a good phone. Even if you go to a slightly older model, I think you would be happy with it.

He's replacing it with a giant cesspit of raw sewage, though. I think they LIKE it as a cesspit of raw sewage. One man's cesspit of raw sewage is another man's sweet smelling pool of, um, opportunity?? Is that where the term "that's a shitty idea" comes from?

Trump was elected precisely to kill the GOP establishment and drain the swamp. He is delivering. He's replacing it with a giant cesspit of raw sewage, though.

djAdvocate - no one ever said a rule had to be broken before a moderator takes action on something. And the occasional non- political thread on the politics board is also ok. But retread sort of hit the nail on the head when he mentioned clutter. That's really what it boiled down to. I know the same can sort of be said about all the various trump threads, or the constant stream of stuff from the same couple people. But you know, we already do have a policy that if duplicate threads on the same subject are started by different individuals, then the newer one gets merged into the one started first. This is essentially the same thing in my opinion. fair enough. so to summarize: non-duplicative, non-political threads will be tolerated here. The OCCASIONAL - by which I mean very infrequent - thread may be permitted. But there is a board for things like that. It's called "everything else".

Sorry .. it merges in chronological order.
Clearly it's just a me thing, but I also don't understand why anyone cares why anyone else posts on P&M. There have also been a lot of the posts in these various threads that contain no substance whatsoever. They're not political at all or even reasons why they post on this board. I'm honestly baffled.
presuming i can voice that. that snark was not necessary It wasn't meant to be snark at all. It was a simple statement of fact.

Sure, it's nice to have a change. My point was that this wasn't really the place to do it, 8 threads worth, is all.

Well that should have been run by me. Truthfully, none of this even belongs here to begin with. well, since all of the responses are now disconnected from the threads, with no way of knowing who is responding to what, you have basically made dada poetry out of something that everyone here seemed to feel had value. of course, that is your choice. you're the boss. but i fervently disagree with it, ftr. presuming i can voice that......

And ONE thread for all is different from the 7-8 that I merged together here.

I really don't understand what people are thinking, but we absolutely do not need all these individual threads about why (generic) you post here.
So, this is now the one place those will go and all the existing threads will be merged in this one.

I like to tell the microsoft ones that i run linux (partly true. Linux at work and a dual boot system at home).
Bottom line though, microsoft doesn't have the ability to magically see what's going on with your computer - unless you ALLOW them to remote into your machine. And for pete's sake, don't allow *that* unless you have called them!
I also enjoy the robo calls from the "IRS" threatening the police. lol

Then there are some of us who still haven't tried it even though we legally can. Personally, I couldn't care less.

Wasp stingers don't come out, which is why they can sting you multiple times and not die. Bee stingers do come out, and then they die.
Editing to add: I know this about wasps from personal experience, unfortunately.

Usually, the first things to try will be clearing cache and cookies and restarting the browser. Possibly a reboot.
What browser are you using and, if you have others to try, does it happen on them as well?

Let's keep this thread on topic of what we did today. Political remarks belong in the Politics forum. Blonde Granny - admin YM & YMOT. Stop it. I have said before that incidental political comments in this thread are fine. If it were ALL politics, that would be different. But frankly, politics affect a lot of areas of people's lives so something that comes to mind often. To say 'you can't even mention it in passing' is simply ridiculous.
