Bored Journalist Sick And Tired Of Flawless U.S. President
https://babylonbee.com/news/bored-journalist-sick-and-tired-of-flawless-us-president

Quote
"I'm just sick and tired of having a President so free of fault or blemish that I have nothing to write about," said Peter Baker, chief White House correspondent for The New York Times. "One can write only so many repetitive articles announcing popular, non-controversial executive orders before wishing the President would trip, or maybe muddle his words. Ugh, anything."

And again, more real than not. I was shocked at the price jumps when I looked at the McCrapple's menu online the other week. If I'm going to pay that freaking much for lunch, I'm going to go to IHOP.

Tell me about.
Hadn't been to a McD in quite a while but stop in recently and ordered two Big Macs and a large fry. Total, almost $15. WTF? It wasn't that long ago it was ~$6
I can get a 8oz steak dinner at Texas Roadhouse for $16. A 6oz for $14!

The last couple of weekends I've been using the McCrapple's app to do a buy one get one free on the chicken & biscuit breakfast sandwiches. Not great, but decently OK for a "I don't have to cook myself breakfast" breakfast.

The second that app promo goes away, I go away.

That is pretty good.  The crowd should have been more diverse, but that might have gotten them kicked off youtube.   =)

Ha ha - I attribute those on my phone from pulling a phone with right hand buttons out of my pocket with my left hand, but "boomer" works for me too.  :laugh:

About once a week I go into my gallery and delete the latest round of unintended screen captures...

A screen capture is literally a picture of your screen at the moment it's taken.

Have a game going and take a screen capture? You get a still picture of the game at that instance in time.

Taking a screen capture usually requires pressing two buttons on your phone at the same time.

Android phones like Samsungs usually store screen captures in the same folder it stores pictures you take with your phone camera. On my Samsung 20, there's a app button called Gallery that opens the pictures.

"Sarcasm, Sheldon."

I thought as much, but given that you're officially older than dirt, I figured I'd err on the side of caution in case you were having trouble figuring out how to get screen captures on your Motorola flip phone.

Speaking of telephone history, some day you've really got to tell us the stories about how you baby sat for Alexander Graham Bell...
