Very true. Most of them look to be interpretations of the sales pitch from the manufacturers website.

Found so many car sales people don't know or even care to learn about the cars they are selling. Could just as well be selling dish washers in Currys!

Ah yes, that too!
Just upload some photos and let the machine do everything else with no quality checking after.

Shopping for a car and it's frustrating how little effort dealers put into listings now.
I shouldn't have to trawl through badly taken pictures looking for signs of only two packs that are offered.
Happy to upsell other services but can't tell me if it has a panoramic roof etc

Now that's impressive drinking at scotiacon! The glass skip at the back of the Crowne is almost entirely full of empties O.o
Noticed last night most of the draft beers had sold out too.

Never underestimate furs ability to consume alcohol!!

Put a friend in gryph and sent him off around the con.
It's fun being 5 paces behind your own suit and watching friends reactions half way through a hug when they look up and see me stood behind.

Ugh, apparently I didn't quite fully drain down the outside pipework last time and the latest cold snap claimed a casualty.

Also perfectly positioned to absolutely soak me when I opened that ball valve to turn the hose on. ;v;

Three coyote pups in an enclosure. One is lying down with its head stuck through a red rubber ball. Another is looking at the camera, grinning, a paw resting on the reclining pup's back.

With Christmas and Hanukkah both several days in the past and many new toys already seeming kind of boring, the kids will be looking to be entertained.

Affirmation Coyote suggests throwing sticks. Kids love chasing sticks!

You and me both!
It's a conversation I've been dreading for years.
Mine are definately working on the basis of ignorance is bliss at this point, as no questions have ever been asked.
Still makes family gatherings super stressful though.

an anthro fox with brown hair and a purple nose, wearing a tattered hat and green and brown patterned poncho. He is looking back over his shoulder at the viewer, smoking a joint and has a beat-up acoustic guitar slung over his back. In the background is a sunset, and the badge is framed by a wooden border underneath reads the name "Rev"

That's a very good point! And very much why I'm looking now rather than waiting for redundancy, even if the payout would be good.

Might be interested so long as you don't mind letting a random gryph in.
I need to do the same since locked accounts aren't a thing here

It's looking like my days are numbered with my current job. I've just been asked to go to India to train up my replacements... Writings definitely on the wall now!!
Absolutely dreading re entering the job market, things have changed so much in 16 years.
