Nahh I just checked. This is the email they sent me. Edited of course BIG GOVERNMENT posted:Thank you for registering your phone number with the National Do Not Call Registry.

Ah, I'm not american. (Norway) But it might be a good tip for any americanos in the thread. There's just 1 company that keeps sending me addressed spam, and I don't want to engage with them in any way honestly. I am however expecting that number to steadily increase now that I've got my own company, because this means that a fuckload of companies suddenly have my address and will start sending me garbage. (Having worked at a post office it's obscene how much garbage mail companies get addressed to them, hopefully they won't give a poo poo about mine.)

Let's take an official picture of this year's Porsche Cup competitors at the famous Nurburgring racetrack, and we'll get the iconic graffiti in the photo as well! What, no, we don't have to run it past anyone who reads English first, why do you ask?

I mean, the crudely drawn picture of, presumably, Sara is language independent... But you know, that's completely armless so who cares.

Another lesson in the "Don't let the internet name your product" category: Hi-Point offered up a new model of 9mm handgun for the naming. Then they collected the "most popular" ones for a final round of voting: Except that the most popular one wasn't actually on the list and people objected.  Then when this was questioned they revealed some unfamiliarity with the term:  Even rival companies started ribbing them:   Hi-Point has compromised and named the model the YC-9.

They at least didn't put it unfiltered like Mountain Dew Hitler Did Nothing Wrong, or it almost certainly would have been something along those lines.

I witnessed my friend yesterday try to get out of a meet up with old co-workers who wanted to get dinner at Applebee's by pretending he'd never heard of the place.

The flaw in his actual plan is that there's no logical connection between not knowing a place and refusing to eat there Did it work, at least?
