FOR SALE: KELTEC PF9 9mm pistol

Some of us get attached to certain knives for a variety of reasons, so those examples go beyond tool into the realm of treasure. I was thinking of this as I was taking photos of some knives to sell earlier this evening. If you'd asked me a year ago, my "never sell" list would have been quite...
I'm not sure why it happened, but I accidentally swallowed my chewing gum.

Not recommended!
To all who offered help, support, and well wishes:

I'm still not 100% sure what "triggered" really means, but it seems to be popular to be triggered.
Hence, I hereby declare on this date that I am officially joining the ranks of the triggered.
I haven't decided what or who triggered me or why, but I am mustering as much self-righteous...
I'm going to be selling half of a duplex for my mother in the immediate future. For the last few years since I've been handling my parents' affairs, we've received dozens of postcards and letters from people asking to purchase the property. It seems like it would be very simple and quick, but...
Some of you kind souls may be aware that I've been hunting for a new job since 08/22/2018 and my layoff was effective on 11/01/2018. It's been a long journey so far and I've learned a lot of things about seeking employment and life in general. Recently I have received an upswing in initial...
Some of you be regular users of LinkedIn. I joined last August in order to facilitate my job search after my then-impending layoff was announced. Fast forward to today and I am still using it on a daily basis to network and search for jobs.

From the Randall Adventure Training Youtube channel. I've never seen anything like this. It's a little complicated (at least at first viewing), but it's slick and seems like a reasonable way to manage a fracture femur in the field.

I'm starting the week with a colossal failure: I dropped a USB drive in the toilet.
The feeling I had when I stood there looking at it at the bottom of the bowl would easily equal the ABC Wide World of Sports agony of defeat image of the ski jumper. Well, minus the life-threatening injuries...
Here is a question from this fat, lazy civilian to those among us who are military veterans or are currently serving in the military.
Why is so common to read about or hear enlisted people ridiculing officers, but so uncommon to read or hear officers ridiculing their enlisted colleagues?
