@Nithya_Shrii Walking by a Tinder Box tobacconist in the mall. A telephone dial tone. A busy signal on the phone. The National Anthem playing from the TV when the station signed off for the night.

What is a sound or smell that doesn’t exist anymore, but 30 years ago was so common it was considered background noise?

@JRobFreedom To learn what’s actually subversive .. When Harry Met Sally is banned from Amazon. Book that questions gender discourse

anytime a bookstore tries to be edgy and has a libbed up "banned books" section it's just a pile of the stuff you were assigned to read in middle school

@cecsquared A local fine dining restaurant invited diners to “indulge in our special Lenten tasting menu.” Avoiding meat just to gorge on lobster and scallops seems counter to the spirit of penance, methinks.

@belkin Avoid this and all other @belkin products, because they’ll drop all support and you’ll be stuck with nothing but worthless bricks. @Belkin do the right thing and bring back the WeMo cloud. Successful companies don’t abandon their users.

@StuffForSisters Can confirm. Extremely disappointing. Not even a mention of the Milky Way. Didn't produce one Snicker from me.

Most people who read "The Three Musketeers" by Alexandre Dumas are disappointed by it because the story features zero candy bars.

Hey @belkin: have you heard the outcry yet and made moves to reverse your terrible decision about WeMo Cloud Services? Leaving your customers hanging is no way to thrive as a company.

@Dan33556919 @Sachinettiyil They consecrated 1600 at the Mass, supplemented with ~500 from the hall chapel ciborium, per one of the priests who concelebrated.

@emzanotti I thought the book was OK. Definitely seems like they rushed to get it to market. Several repeated anecdotes and descriptions that tight editing could’ve fixed. Structure overall was good, though. Kinda the opposite of the Fitz itself.

Just went to turn off a fan connected to a @belkin WeMo smart switch and discovered that they shut down the service at some point today. I had no warning, as it was integrated with Alexa. I have a bunch of WeMo devices, all now dead. Awful decision by Belkin.

The package finally arrived on Saturday. 21 days after being mailed, 14 of those spent in the Indianapolis hub. Total incompetence.

Your daily @usps incompetence update: My package has been sitting in Indianapolis for FOUR DAYS doing nothing. This is after the SIX DAYS it already spent there last week. Mailed on 1/10, no expectation it will ever arrive. @OIGUSPS needs to be fired. @POTUS, help!

@Endreshazam @colin_dunlap He was indeed a writer, but not for Sanford & Son. Probably best known for playing Big Enos in the Smokey & the Bandit series.

RIP You Big Dummy. This show was comedic genius. The humor, the timing, the delivery — all of it. And most of all society didn’t get offended by everything back then. We could actually laugh … and most of all at ourselves.

I get that the weather has things borked up. But my package continues to be held hostage, it has now been 10 days at @USPS Indy hub, aside from an unnecessary trip to and back from Chicago. Absolutely ridiculous. I ask @OIGUSPS once again: how is this not fraud and waste?

Quick update: after 6 days sitting in Indy, @USPS sent my package BACK TO CHICAGO, where it immediately was sent BACK TO INDY, where it is being held hostage again. @USPSHelp, do you even know what you're doing? @OIGUSPS, you have a problem!

I see that the Indianapolis @USPS mail hub is up to its old tricks again: my package has been sitting in Indy since 1/16, just doing nothing. What is up with this, @OIGUSPS @USPSHelp? Anything @SenToddYoung or @SenatorBanks can do?
