Very funny experience at the movies just now. Ordered a small popcorn and the concession lady was like “do you want a free upgrade to a larger size? It does, however, come in a ‘Melania’ bucket.” I laughed and said sure, I’ll just pull my hoodie on and quickly scoot to the dark theater. The gal said they normally just automatically upgrade you to the larger promotional size, but they had to tell people because they were rejecting it. They had stacks and stacks of these things. I felt dirty. My daughter showed open disdain for my greed, and asked for a little side container so I could dump her popcorn into it.
The Binance guy pardon alone was one of the most corrupt deals in the history of forever, yet it hardly gets a mention. They just flood the zone with so much open and blatant corruption that it just becomes white noise.
"“Solo Mio” was cookie cutter rom com fare. Chat GPT could’ve written that story in 10 minutes with a few prompts. But it was fine. Kevin James had NO real comedic elements to his character. Kim was hilarious though.
Mine can’t be permanently disabled. I even asked the dealer. Nope. You have to manually turn it off every time. The worst part though is it requires you to have a separate little auxiliary battery to run shit when the start/stop has stopped. That little battery has shit out twice on me now.
Going to see “Solo Mio” in a few, cuz our neighbor Kim Coates is in it and he gave us free tix. We have a street WhatsApp and a few people have seen it and commented, so we almost feel obligated. They’re good folks too. Their daughter babysat for us for years. They are right next door to the first burned house on our street.
The QX30 is just a Mercedes GLA 250 with an Infiniti badge. Built by Mercedes in England. Failed partnership that they killed. Along with the model. Been a good car otherwise.
My Infiniti has the bullshit start/stop. Yes, the compressor stops when the engine stops. It just blows air. I turn off the start/stop every time I get in the car, if I remember.
We just got back from the Ice House where she performed. She was great. Ron Funches was funny too. And Robby Hoffman. Need to hit the Ice House more often.
