Bro, I think what he is saying is that shopping on Sundays would be more convenient. He is right about that, it's a solid argument. Still doesn't mean that we should do something, just because it's more convenient. Like, this evening, it would be more convenient and efficient to eat a can of tuna over the sink(while crying) instead of preparing real dinner.

They are magical creatures that can only be seen and interacted with on Sundays. Luckily, waiters and self-employed people never have children. So gently caress them. I actually have no big feelings on this topic. The arguments pro and con are simply blown out of proportion. Neither is it today a church thing, nor are you incapable of having a family when working on Sundays.

Yes my point was that using the " my kids" argument for one side but not for the other is desingenous and is dumb argument anyway. Maybe we can frame this as a workers law issue, or maybe why are still people buying stuff in brick and mortar shops in tyool 2016. Theres nothing quite like having your vegetables delivered by drone to make you think "wow im in the future". Disclaimer:i may or may not have a drone selling shop.if anyone has found a way to deliver drones by drone please pm me.

Cat Mattress posted:More Euromil news: under the previous government, Poland has selected to buy 50 Caracal helicopters from Airbus. But because the Airbus factory in Poland is in Lodz, which is not a PiS territory, while on the other hand two of Airbus' competitors, Sikorsky and Leonardo-Finmeccanica, have factories in PiSland, the PiS government has made sure the negotiations failed. So now it's official, there won't be any Caracal. The French president had a diplomatic visit planned to Poland on the 13th of the month, but after news that the copter deal was sunk, he canceled it. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/oct/13/poland-continues-multi-pronged-attack-on-french-we-taught-them-to-use-forks quote:Poland’s deputy defence minister has claimed that Poles taught the French how to use forks as a diplomatic row rages over the handling of a failed multi-billion euro helicopter deal.

You've made read about the history of forks on Wikipedia:" posted:By the 11th century, the table fork had become increasingly prevalent in the Italian peninsula. It gained a following in Italy before any other Western European region because of historical ties with Byzantium, and continued to gain popularity due to the increasing presence of pasta in the Italian diet.[11"] At first, pasta was consumed using a long wooden spike, but this eventually evolved into three spikes, a design better suited to gathering the noodles. That single wooden spike must have been a pain in the rear end to use.

IRC the Airbus deal was absolutely fantastic, including technology transfers, setting up a whole polish helicopter industry and a shitton of high paying jobs coming with it. Now they got nothing. Rumor has it that the deal came apart because the factories were supposed to be set up in non-piss territory. lmao Welp, at least Poland didn't have to take in 100 refugees. Guess it was worth it in the end, many thanks to all the PIS voters!
