Please speak to the people sitting beside you in the pews.

They don’t seem to care what us godless heathens have to say. Maybe they’ll listen to a fellow believer.

Literally never seen one of those outside of movies.

kent_eh , to news in Grocery store prices are changing faster than ever before — literally. This month, Walmart became the latest retailer to announce it’s replacing the price stickers in its aisles with electronic shelf.

embarrassed to have been caught.

I would suggest the prisoner could only petition for execution after being incarcerated for a significant period (20 years or so maybe?) and having exhausted all possible legal appeals.
