... if you can't get off your fat ass and vacuum your house with a dumb vacuum, maybe you don't deserve any privacy. Nobody at Amazon forced you to install a RING doorbell and wire your entire house up with Alexa machines either.

Fuckin' dummies.

Can those be fitted with pot-sniffers, to help out the cops?

To help them do what, exactly?

Symbolically handcuff somebody so the local State's Attorney can let them right back out again?

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


JSF, I know you've got a grotch against all drugs but, seriously... Pot isn't crack.

That saying "Never let a good crisis go to waste"? I think the "war on drugs" was an early equivalent of "Covid vaccine mandates". So just make sure that the solution you're proposing isn't worse than the "problem" you're trying to solve.

The point was NOT that crooked cops need a fresh new excuse to shred the Constitution.

Maybe you would have understood if I said The Ministry of Truth.

Look at the Fishing Expedition at Mar-a-Lago.

Drug sniffers (pot, coke, crack, meth, fent, molly, whatever), detailed coordinates of where each are within the confines of a Citizen's Castle, Nanny State eavesdropping on who is yelling at who, who is watching pron, who is having illegal sex, hear who is falsifying their tax return, where every gun is stored, who is drinking too much soda, who is watering more than their allotted share....
Where does it stop?
Do none of you see any problem with any of that?
Stop focusing on your own pet paranoid fears.


I was almost surprised that China didn't beat Amazon to the punch. Oh, wait - that is a place where the GOVERNMENT already has all the guns.

JSF, since neither of us wants to see the government and big tech snooping into our every moment, was your first post sarcastic? A warning? NOT a serious suggestion?

Sarcasm (if that's what it was) doesn't always translate well on the internet. If you're bein snarky, end your post with /snark because I sure didn't understand the intent of your post and I don't think SIX did either.

They also say the actress who played Gladriel is in therapy now because of the bad reviews.

Boo Hoo.

It's also shut down its primary care service for employees effective December 31st.

And it's abandoned plans for expanding into dozens of more warehouses across the US.


It's either the fault of Joe Biden*'s inflation, which Bezos himself is no fan of, or it's the fault of the Billion Dollar Blunder LOTR ripoff that nobody in the world is a fan of.

Either way. I LOL'ed.

Goodbye free shipping. You will be missed.
