first, phone zombies and now this----the pacification of society:
Following reports of talks with Aurora Cannabis (OTCQX:ACBFF) Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) said it was closely watching the fast-growing marijuana drinks market for a possible entry. Molson Coors (NYSE:TAP) has already announced a joint venture with Hydropothecary to develop cannabis drinks, while Diageo (NYSE:DEO) is in talks with at least three Canadian cannabis producers about a possible deal.

Not a 1st for coke. Remember coke had coke in their coke when it 1st sold. It is just going to raise street price when it is made legal.
Let's see, I need a Roomba, a Scooba, an Apple XS, Alexa and the smart home accessories from Amazon like a microwave that I can talk to, the above (does it come with a baby?).... Oh, the joy of not having to do anything except work to pay for it all!
This morning my smart outlets and light switch stopped working. I could still turn the lights in the bedroom on and off from the outlet manufacturer's app, but it wasn't working from Google Assistant or Alexa. Also, my light switch was another brand and wasn't working, so I pressed the switch with my hand, I'll have to troubleshoot this when I get home.
This is the first time I've had problems with this, it doesn't appear to be a wireless networking issue since the app works, probably a gateway issue between the Alexa and Google Assistant services and the smart home cloud. Alexa failed silently and Google Assistant just said that there was an error, not much to go on there.

I'm sorry, but that's no hero. He's as much a criminal as anyone else. Now, not only do people who were truly guilty get to walk, but those who were innocent will sue and it will cost the county or state a ton of money in law suits.
In Fumo Pax Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

They say that manspreading takes up 2 - 3 seats. You see the size of those "seats"? They look like they're only 16" wide. I think they have a seat problem not a manspreading problem.

^^^^^ Have not heard of this yet but I have no doubt that I will deal with it soon enough. I get calls all the time for all sorts of reasons so this will be just another one.

Mike Pence Admits To Heavy Root Beer Drinking In High School
WASHINGTON, D.C.—In an emotional address, Vice President Mike Pence confessed to being a "root beer binge drinker" in high school and well into his college years.
Accusations have been swirling around the Vice President after his yearbook inscription was revealed to contain several references to A&W and Mug.
"Yes, I liked root beer. I still like root beer," Pence said. "But in my high school days, I drank to excess—sometimes to the point of a sugar rush."
His wife stood by him, nodding solemnly, though tears could be seen forming in the corners of her eyes.
"I am sorry for the man I was, but by God's grace, I have become the man I am now," he added.
Pence was quick to point out that while he did go too far with his root beer addiction for several years, he never allowed the sugary substance to influence him to dance or play cards on Sunday.
... Tne Babylon Bee

Actually, you can make this stuff up.
The Bee is satire.
Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.

I'm just saying...the name of the thread is "You can't make this stuff up." But someone did make it up. It just seemed off. I mean a lot of this stuff is made up on here so I don't know why it bugged me. But it made me chuckle placed here. That's all.

Spose I shoulda started a new thread -- "You Can Make This Up". I'm a big fan of the BB. Subtle absurdity.

I know. I just couldn't resist posting that meme/gif. And just for fun, if you scroll back far enough in this thread, I believe I've made the same point myself, made up stuff on the "You can't make this stuff up" thread.
Well I'm just outraged! Making fun of poor young saps who fall for the sweet and foamy allure of sassafras derivatives, another young life wasted on an herbal high.
You should be ashamed of yourselves!
Root Beer is a gateway drug to sasparilla, don't you know? And God alone knows where that might lead.
What's next?
GINGERALE?!?! How many gingers do they murder to make that stuff?
