Google is just going off your own own accent and trying to cater to your people. Want to listen to proper English, stop talking like a FOB.

I'm about as white as white gets. If you needed a "average north American white dude" I'd be your guy. Think of the demographic for CCR, Bob Dylan, Ram Jam, and Steve Earle then subtract the mullet, cigarettes and iroc and you have me. I don't think its a function of any accent.

I had no idea about this either until year 2 of parenting. Now I know a few of the songs. A few minutes per day is what we allowed. I then realized that shit is demonic. If you watch the characters its like they are in a cult of some sort. Never again.

Now we do a few minutes of garbage truck videos daily. This stuff is great...

Garbage truck and helicopter complication videos are the best. They were a big part of the early stages of the pandemic in our house. To this day my kids still get amped seeing garbage trucks because of those videos.

It's probably my own fault for going into a thread discussing weather in a city I don't live in.

I also spotted a douche canoe somewhere a while ago. That's another one I don't like, and honestly I thought it was in the past.

When I'm trying to read my morning news, but the article I click on is actually a YouTube video. Like fuck I want that with my morning coffee.

Yea. “News” that links to a video is the literal worst.

Video is the worst medium to consume news and current events. Change my mind.

A teacher that comes back from mat. leave two months before the year is over and hasn't made it through a full week without a sub, yet.

Also I think douche canoe or any other suffix/prefix applied to douche is still fair game.

Teachers game the leave system, but they have the ability to do so.

Are you implying there's something wrong with building a decades long culture around increasing costs err....I mean, gaming the system, and then manufacturing outrage at cuts when they eventually come?

Teacher? Fuck I know women in other industries doing the same shit. So annoying, and it's not because of them leaving so much. More because they know they are incompetent so they do this to get out of doing work and have people realizing they don't know how to do anything.

Interior design trends. Most notably black interior paint circa 2019-2021 where it was all the rage in the stay at home mom community and most recently no upper cabinets, only open shelving. Both of those trends are stupid

When a company buys "swag" for everyone, but it's cheap, useless, and all destined to go to the landfill within 6 months.

I'd rather have the $20 this cost them per person, as cash, or a couple of free drinks at the next work function.

Yes. I got a bag from Shell one time that the zipper fell off as I took it out of its Bird Flu box.
It made me feel so safe after xx trillion man-hours* with no LTI's.
