When a long weekend is coming up, no one really gives a damn at work. I left 2 hours early and no-one cared.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

People are idiots.

I wish this was really random but I'm afraid it isn't. I've had ample evidence of this throughout the day.

  Also, some of the biggest idiots can be the biggest assholes. :thumbdn:

There are two flea markets near me that are opened every weekend and there is a McDonalds right next to one of them. The manager there has to patrol the parking lot and ask people who are getting out of their cars about what they are there for and he has cars get towed if people park in their parking lot and go next door. I realized lot of people do it and it's become a problem so now they have to patrol it so my husband and I just took turns going over there looking while our kids played and ate and one of us stayed. Our car didn't get towed because we were customers and we didn't abandon our car in the parking lot.

What about people going to the flea markets and eating at McDonalds afterwards. Can imagine the flea markets bring a lot of extra customers to McDonalds.

Weird that you can't even eat as a family, without being afraid your car gets towed.

If they want to make it exclusive, maybe they can build a gate for people who want to leave, that only opens if you insert a coin that only customers get after paying their meal.

They just don't want their parking lot to get full that customers wouldn't be able to eat there because of cars there parked by flea marker customers. Lot of places are like that. They want customer parking only and always threaten to tow your vehicle if you part there and aren't a customer. They have signs up for it.

Parking is very limited at these places which is why you should take the light rail there since the stop is so close and then you have to walk a few blocks.
