Anybody can do what China did. First, get a billion people...

Half this country was unemployed with draconian social laws. There were going to be riots no matter what.

writing a book titled "Erotic Confessions of a Fifth Grade Sex Ed Teacher" is a guaranteed way to get the attention of the authorities

Big Pun was a better lyricist.

Fat Joe was more gangsta, street.

How many words per minute can Lobo type?

[Guest Lobo]

I can still type about 110 words per minute.  It helps that I have very large hands (10.5" according to the NFL combine measuring technique) and am ambidextrous.  And yes, South Austin's mom has long enjoyed not even being able to tell which of my large hands I was using.  

I have to type about 5,000 words a day between my dayjobs, non-fiction writing sidehustle, and stuff on here to piss off Rex Kramer.  So long ago, I took proper typing courses and they helped a ton and save me all kinds of time.  

Random question in the spirit of this thread---have any of y'all come across a good typing courses for young kids?  Particularly since more than even the usual amount of classwork will be done virtually this next semester?  

[SwanderedTalent 5761]

They should have made Flynn and Max the Horse romantic rivals for Rapunzel in Disney's Tangled. That would have subverted expectations! especially if she picked the horse

Nicely done, blast from the past.  Actually did one similar to this when I got an Apple II in the 80’s.  And speaking of old school, what really helped me was a typing class in high school on a massive and slow moving smith corona.   By the time you get back to a proper computer, it’s like tapering in swimming—-I could double my word count.  
 

pos Rep, really takes me back. 

[Fudge Nuggets 19190]

Typing was probably the most useful class I took in high school.

I took it as the option for shop. To meet the fine young ladies. Only one typing class related bj, and I got a D in typing.

The upside of wearing a mask at the office is avoiding some of the smell of the old guy daily explosive diarrhea death in the bathroom. Like 4 of these guys, every single day, about 10 times a day.

Honest to god I actually spent a small amount of time looking into what it would take to build this product and a couple of other similar variations. I did a back of a napkin business plan and figured there's just not enough money in it to try it. But I'd buy one if someone made them.

Do the online pizza delivery trackers that tell you when your pizza is being made, boxed, delivered, etc. actually attach to anything or are they total bullshit?

the store has buttons they hit as the pie moved from place to place and then when the driver is dispatched....and often times the name given is the actual person doing the work

I know this from asking one time in the store way back and from reddit

Late 40s here. Who remembers Orinoco Flow in the late 80s? Song came on earlier. That was "the song" for the stereo guys trying to win those contests.

Can you imagine working at Walmart after the mask mandate? The Karen incidents have to be off the charts.

After? Have you seen the folks that shopped there prior to this? 

[Rougarou 594]

If you shop at walmart, are you even a Karen? I thought Karen's were supposed to be at least upper middle class.

[Guest Lobo]

Yeah, I kinda picture Karen as solidly in the middle-class.  Or at least the appearance of upper middle-class.  I think part of her schtick though is she wants to be further up the social ladder than she really is.  She's inherently somewhat entitled, but wants to be a lot more entitled and just isn't sure how to get there, so to fast-trak it...she yells at lot of working class folks.  There is no upper class/Top 2% kinda Karen though, that kind of person smiles and walks away and then buys your business just to fire you and humiliate you.
