No.

I am a good person with a capacity for kindness. The difference? It's not reflex.

Nice is the guy waving you through at a stop sign when it's their turn. Sure there's good intention, but seriously? No.

Guitar is the only hobby I acquired that never took. I wanted it to take, but did not have the funds to pursue lessons.

I could not get over the beginner hurdles of how to strum, how to really hold the pick, and so forth. If I could have taken lessons or gotten past that I might have learned and still be playing today instead of seeing the case just sitting there collecting dust.

They've been used twice, no charges, not fired. Not at my store.

Yeah, I don't know, I think it's nuts, and I hate that place, but somehow it's made to work.

Lovely.

The company I work for has some of the general managers of stores carrying tasers.

Edit: or just fun.

I had a former colleague called up to Minneapolis during that uprising. That seems to be what their understanding generally was. At one point, they were shot at. Returning fire was very much not on their minds, it was more making sure people were OK (no one was hurt).

Keep order was the idea.

Seemed the person shooting was basically trying to provoke them. It failed.
