Disney has asked a Florida court to dismiss a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the husband of a Long Island doctor. The lawsuit claims that Dr. Kanokporn Tangsuan suffered a fatal allergic reaction after eating at a Disney Springs restaurant despite repeatedly informing the waiter of her severe allergy. Disney is calling for the lawsuit to be dismissed because her husband signed up for a one-month trial of the Disney+ streaming service years prior.

What the hell. I hope the judge tells Disney where to shove their arbitration clause.

Isn't banggood legit? I know the name looks suspicious as heck (well, if I didn't know better, I'd think it was an NSFW site), but I remember Atomic Shrimp using it for legit purchases. I'd never use it though. I think it's in the same stable as Ali express and that sort of thing.

Yeah I've had a couple of customers outright wrap their hand around mine as I handed them their change. It's creepy and invasive. If it happened enough times, I'd just start putting everyone's change on the counter.

Offensive to lemons and fans of lemons.

Definitely more than five years. About ten years ago is when I saw it.

They will happily keep up unsafe products, why do they care about this?

Yep, at least ten years ago I went to reorder some electric toothbrush heads, went to my past purchases to find the same ones, only to see the listing (with my review for the brush heads still there) had a completely different product.

December will be my 4 year Amazon-free anniversary. Screw that site.

It's definitely Bill Gates with his 5g microchips!

Let's take a moment to appreciate how much effort this YouTuber puts in just for us (has nothing to do with this channel being how they pay their bills, they do it all for us!)

English used to be phonetic, it's just people started changing the way they pronounced vowels, but the spelling stayed the same. For example, both the k and the gh in "knight" used to be pronounced.

You get a pat on the back for that *ahem*

Edit: damn, someone beat me to it. Anyone for Fun Kart Grand Prix?

Even here, some like Oxfam will save the more valuable stuff to sell on ebay. I worked at two charity shops back in my twenties, so I got to the good stuff first haha. The Baldur's Gate was lucky because another customer was going to buy it for her son, but changed her mind when she saw the age rating, and I was like, bagsy this!

Not his first attempt, but I want to do whatever I can to encourage him to stay on the wagon this time. I don't have any experience of this, so I'd appreciate any tips from those who have been there already.

Edit 02/10: he's still clean!

 

And there's still this much battery left. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. I wasn't expecting it to still have any power left at all. I suppose with the sim out, all it was doing was powering the clock, but still! Unfortunately, I've had to retire it as my network won't connect on it anymore.

 

Uh oh!
