The Pixel 10 Pro (for my wife for Xmas) came today. I took the trade-in mailer out of the box, threw the box away so she wouldn't find it, then packaged the trade-in (an old Pixel 2) and sealed it up.
Three hours later I realized I never took the Pixel 10 out of the box that was in the trash can.

Well, sure. You see now, if it was a DUCK, then THAT'S a lawsuit.
The Orange County woman who sued SeaWorld after she said a duck knocked her unconscious on the Mako coaster was hit by a snowy egret, not a duck, according to SeaWorld, which filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit.

Picked up the Criterion "Eyes Wide Shut" 4K at B&N yesterday at the half-price sale. Got home, my wife saw it, and she immediately grabbed it and announced she's giving it to me for Christmas.
Goddammit.

Fun fact: for the big acts in front of Macy's, the cameras are across 5th Ave from the bleachers, facing Macy's.
And the performers face the cameras.
So all of those lucky people in the bleachers? They only get to see the performers' asses.
(I got to be one of those people some years ago)
