@djls45 My God, you have such a boring life!
I bet you never shot a man in Reno, just to see him die either
Nope. But I did read in the library records about a guy in northern Nevada who injured a man in a drunken fistfight so that he soon died. The guy was convicted and executed. The day before his execution, he made a statement for the local newspaper to the effect that he accepted the judgment and sentence and that he hoped that his example would be a warning to young people to avoid both drinking and fighting.
Come on you gotta listen unto me. Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be.

Though I bet he spent at least a night in a Holiday Inn Express.

Cost signalling like that attracts the wrong type of spouse.
My proposal cost about £120, which was 100% the cost of the ring. My wife would have been annoyed if I'd spent thousands that could have been spent on the wedding or starting our married life on the right foot.
Yeah, we were both broke college students at the time, so there simply wasn't any large amount of money to be had.
Yeah, my husband had 4 kids and a divorce.

High doses of the common painkiller over a long period of time may put men at greater risk of fertility problems and other health issues, research indicates
High doses of anything over a long period of time may cause health issues. Must be a slow news day.

A worldwide community of online gamers might be a key in finding out why a 28-year-old man is dead after being shot by police Thursday evening.
Easy: he's dead because the police shot him

I'm not a big fan of either — not really my style of music — but faced with a choice between them, the Man in Black wins, hands-down.

They don't work very well at the moment though. I do like the styling in spite of that.

Snow has fallen in Aïn Séfra — which, while normally dry, regularly experiences conditions approaching freezing — on at least four occasions in the past six years. On 21 January 2017, flurries from dawn until late afternoon left most of the area blanketed in snow, as reported by French news site France Info. A month before that, there was a brief flurry of snow lasting only a couple of hours, also according to France Info. This event was widely (but falsely) reported as the Sahara Desert’s first snow in almost 40 years.

Thank you, that's the exact Dilbert strip I was thinking of when I saw "Cobra effect" but got sidetracked before I could go and get it.

@hungrier But very cool looking.

@boomzilla Wow that's quite a dose. I was on 600mg twice a day for problems with my ankle and I decided to give it up and live in pain after a few weeks because it wrecked my stomach. Doesn't surprise me that it would wreck other things, too.

@pleegwat If they don't you hang them by their feet into the scorpion pit, next to the mimes.

An article from around the time of the event:
John Hennigan, 50, was handed an 18 month prison sentence after he breached an ASBO by using racist language towards a woman and her two young children.
During sentencing at Chelmsford Crown Court, Hennigan launched a foul-mouthed tirade at Judge Patricia Lynch QC, saying that she was a 'bit of a cunt'.
In response the judge said: 'You are a bit of a cunt yourself'.
Hennigan shouted back: 'Go fuck yourself, to which the judge replied, 'you too'.
Hennigan, of Harlow, Essex, then banged on the glass panel of the dock, performed a Nazi salute and twice shouted 'Sieg Heil' before starting to sing 'Jews gas them all....'
Speaking in a measured tone, Judge Lynch said: 'We are all really impressed. Take him down.'
