You don’t actually give the card to the employees, do you?

Typically when I go through a drive thru, I hand my card to someone who then leans back inside to swipe/tap/whatever it, then they hand it back. So yes, commonly I do give my card to an employee for at least a few seconds.

During 2020-2022 more of them were in the habit of placing the PIN pad at the window so it could be reached by customers from their cars, but it wasn’t designed to be used that way and I’m sure it caused other issues.

Gotta imagine that ladder was covered in ice for much of the year.

Assuming this is in fact in Chernivtsi, as the post title says, it’s not too bad there. Mean temp falls below freezing for three months out of the year.

Still, probably not fun to climb when there is ice…

Trump filled the compliment today

trump could make the compliment and he will back him

I’m guessing “compliment” was supposed to be “complaint”?

This is just my head canon, but the noise actually comes from speakers on board the ship /in the cockpit

I’m pretty sure this was explicitly addressed in at least one of the pre-Disney novels, and was somewhat entrenched with a part of the fanbase afterward.

thinking that the year 2000 was 10 years ago.

This is patently absurd, 10 years ago was 1994.

I’m colour blind and don’t see red very well.

I’m not color blind and almost didn’t see it. This was an okay idea, executed with a terrible choice of colors.

He looks like a water skipper.

Somewhat similar, the title refers to an insect that the photo resembles.
