Yeah, how dare he not show the Miss Universe pageant the respect and propriety it deserves on such an august occasion.

"Terribly honest human mistake" is the quickest distancing maneuver I think I've ever seen. It's like saying "We all gently caress up, don't we? That inherently lessens my error." as your opening line during an apology.

But I mean, again, these stupid things aren't the first, fastest, or easiest to use product of its kind. Even if people are so lazy that "replacement for walking" is a product on par with loving mobile phones, that niche has already been filled by plenty of products that don't result in a page of crash pictures in this thread. Please tell me that me reading posts here as advocating these things is a gross misreading. Or else that the posts saying so are trolling and I'm just a fool.

There is irony in any headline that uses 'the N-word' rather than just spelling out the actual word being used. Or, at least, using "n*****" or something.

Nope. He did not deserve to be tasered at all and it's hosed up you think he does just based on his retarded beliefs. He was no threat, and tasers are meant as an alternative to shooting someone with a gun. I hope the guy tasering him got fired because using a weapon on someone because they annoy you is, well pretty expected from US law enforcement actually so he probably kept his job.

He was standing outside, filming, demanding to be let in and being ridiculous. Nothing that made it so a weapon needed to be used, and it wouldnt have been in most countries outside the US. Also, tasers aren't non-lethal and killed about 50 people in 2015 by causing heart-attacks and such.

You don't get a pass on illegal behaviour by being silly, he clearly attempted to move into the restricted area after being told the consequence for such an action (which means probable motivation), and your taser concern trolling has been duly noted.

But aside from that, the point is to waste the time of the companies, who nobody wants to hear from in the first place and who have often been told before not to call in the second. If that means making someone's poo poo job a bit shittier, so be it. At least they get paid either way (I hope).

People who do calls like that get hosed if a call wastes their time and doesn't end in a sale. You're not sending any kind of message any higher up than potentially that caller's supervisor, who is also a wage slave.

E: I yelled at a receptionist for an hour until she cried. She missed three calls and now she has to go to a meeting to discuss her efficiency. Take that, Microsoft!

The best part about this was the incredibly whiny response from our prime minister.

That's not a living wage in most of the USA, let's be real here.

I find a lot more fault with San Francisco's outrageous rent prices, and the stagnation of American wages in general (even including the recent min. wage increases), than with a Poor Trying to Live Above Her Means, but I guess that's me being overly sentimental.

She loving chose to move to San Francisco.

It's true that the state of affairs in America in general is hosed. I'm not saying that it shouldn't get better for everyone. But at the moment, it is hosed, and holy poo poo she chose to move to loving San Francisco. Apparently she expected to be protected from becoming the cliche of the financially struggling English Lit major simply by understanding that the situation was a cliche, rather than by, y'know, not moving to loving San Francisco.
