Shall I return to England? The laws have changed there too since my ancestors came over here around the 1760s.

when there were no immigration laws whatsoever in the 'new world'
Is that going to be laparoscopic surgery or lithotripsy? A few years ago I had extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy to pulverize a couple of large stones in my left kidney. I was mildly sedated during the procedure and went home the same day. The only slightly unpleasant aftereffect is that you pee blood for the next few days.
Looking around the apartment this morning and I came to the realization that my bookcases, dresser, bed frame, headboard and nightstand have followed me around from the day my parents first purchased them 45 years ago. The same goes for the pots, pans, dishes and silverware, which I took when my parents divorced. It's all 45-50 years old and everything is still in good condition.
So I'm just about to leave work and there's an open plate of food on the return rack.
I asked whose it was...apparently a customer made it, brought it to the store, and said that anyone who wanted some could have it. (I don't know what the stuff actually was. Some kind of cheese dish I think.)
Would YOU take any? I sure as hell didn't

I'm paranoid so definititely not.
And it didn't work, when I was a kid I had my ureters reimplanted and because of the way they did it, they couldn't get it. So all of this ended up being pointles. So now I'm going to have to go back and I'll be getting tube put into my bladder, and then they'll use a different method to get rid of the stone. It sounds like I at least won't have to go under full anesthesia for those like I did today.
It was cystoscopy, so they actually went up through a certain part of my anatomy to get try to get to it, and then zap it with a laser.

I don't know about a cheese dish, but we have had customers bring us pizza or cookies as a way of saying 'Thank You' for our service.
My Amazon Package for a lounge chair cushion got sent to some random city a few cities over because Amazon logistics in their infinite wisdom decided to hand my package to UPS!?!?!
Why have your own Logistics Network & Delivery Service, just to hand over the package to one of the most incompetent delivery services in the US?
Screw UPS (United Parcel Service, Inc.).
The first time they screwed up by sending me the wrong item.
I was asking for a lounge chair cushion, I got a metal stool.
Then I returned that sucker and the second item gets sent to some random address in a few cities over.
I'm like WTF? Am I cursed?
Why are you depending on UPS of all services?

It's an oddity that struck me when I was working there a few years back. They'd just have the regular UPS trucks come in and then there's one just stuffed to the brim with Amazon packages that we'd have to deal with too without even a word said about it. Considering how it was were I worked and the sheer mania of having to deal with all of those packages, it's just the overload of stuff coming, or incompetence. Considering the things I've seen in my warehouse it's obvious where the mistakes might be made. Hopefully you can get what you want soon 'nuff!
So the stories are true!
I keep seeing articles saying Sony is going to let you smell scents from a video game in real life.
SELL IT TO THE FOOD NETWORK.
My God, nobody wants to smell the long abandoned crypt with ancient treasure. EVERYONE wants to smell that delicious curry they just cooked.

So does that mean you will be able to smell Lara Croft?
What's the point of flooding Rotten Tomatoes with fake positive audience reviews (account only has one review and the review itself doesn't say anything to suggest the movie was even watched) for super terrible movies? Happens with Christian movies all the time. Most recently it's Chuck Norris' first movie in 12 years which he's barely in.
I haven't looked at RT in a long time. Maybe a lot of positive ratings will push the movie to the top of a "trending movies" type of list or something like that?
Kor
A lot of those reviews though are actually bought or paid for so they are pushing the popularity of movies that otherwise should have flopped hard. Happens in gaming all the time, in fact I would say it happens always in gaming with nearly every single new release always winning some kind of award or lots of golden reviews.
Confirmation bias.
It's why I don't trust review sites at all. They just repeat biases towards films. If a film interests me, I'll watch it, yes even *gasps* Christian films!
I've never watched a christian movie, except the ones I was semi forced to as when I was part of a youth group many moons ago. Some of those are super funny though because they are supposed to be showing some message but one I remember the camera really liked this actress and her bum and they had lots of scenes of her bum as she was walking. It was even funny at the time because people were commenting about it during the film
