Always seems to me that the mens restroom is the one farthest from the entrance to any given building. You pass the womens to get to the mens.

“86” means “get rid of”, not kill.

"The term 86 is used throughout many different industries, but is mostly associated with the restaurant, bar, and hospitality industry. While the etymology of the term 86 has a few different stories, there are multiple theories around where this term originated from. In nearly every context, it means to “refuse service”, “get rid of” or “nix” something.

According to Merriam-Webster, the origin of the term 86 began as a slang term that meant something was sold out at soda bars in the 1930’s. This term was thought to have come from the rhyming slang term “nix”, which is to cancel something.

During the Prohibition Era, a speakeasy called Chumley’s bar was located at 86 Bedford Street, Greenwich Village, New York City. Police showed up at the hidden bar to shut it down, and apparently told patrons to “86” (leave) the area by using the secret back door that led to 86th Bedford Street. Which was different from the main entrance that police would use on Barrow Street.

Other possible origins of where the term 86 comes from is also tied to bars and alcohol. Prior to the 1980s, whiskey was available as 100 of 86 proof. When patrons drank too much of the 100-proof whiskey, they would become belligerent, and the bartender would have to “86” them, meaning they would have to switch to 86-proof liquor or leave the bar if they were unruly."

US, in theory, unlimited PTO, but here’s the problem in the US…

PTO is up to your employer, and while my employer is very generous, my wife’s is not.

So I can’t really take a holiday. I’d LIKE to, I have time available to take, and places I’d like to go, but it’s not like I can tell my wife “Sucks you have to work, anyway, going to Vegas! See you next week!”

Such an idiot, especially since you know she doesn’t own a home.

We fought the same fight here a few years ago to get municipal power. FUD is a powerful adversary, we lost. :(

Compared to the last two times they just posted a picture and a crappy blogspot page, yes.

There you go! That’s the right way! Someone else put the BBC version up in [email protected] as well.

In the Dark Tower movie, Idris Elba was hopelessly miscast as Roland.

But he would have kicked 12 kinds of ass if they did a faithful adaptation and cast him as Cort.

Oh, that’s true.

Hellboy is great, but it’s not anime and that’s not it. :)

“Look out! He’s got a gun!”

Nobody got this? Really?

Akira, just before the cops gun down that guy in the street.

Someone figured out if you add profanity to the search it avoids AI responses.
