"No, John. You are the demons."

And then John was a zombie.

I agree that the man is clearly off his rocker, but from a legal perspective, what matters is whether or not you understand that you have, in fact, killed a dude, and that this is in fact a bad thing. Having voices in your head telling you to do it is a completely separate issue. Again, this is my understanding as a layman, so any actual lawyers please feel free to tell me I'm full of shit.

My understanding is that insanity defense has a very high bar, beyond what the public would commonly consider "crazy", so it's not actually something that happens often. And even then, actually getting out of whatever institution you're remanded to isn't guaranteed.

Aw, snowflake got triggered.

Well, how else would we know it's a pineapple and thus get triggered?

CAH also explicitly said that what they were doing should be illegal.

Hey man, President Convict would have stopped stroking Vlad's balls while choking on his dick! That would've showed him.

That's okay, unbaptized infants get a free pass to heaven! Y'know, because admitting the alternative is actually the case would be pretty fucked.

What's that you say? Fetuses would also get a free pass? Shut up with your dirty heathen logic!

I mean, according to Revelation the faithful spend literally every moment on their knees locked in prayer venerating their god, so...

This is not a problem if you drive at the speed limit. Then what happens is that everyone else, who will be speeding, will continually pass you and thus create more car lengths in front of you. Unless you're in a no passing zone on a two lane road, in which case they can follow the speed limit for once.

Actually, Rebels is supposed to take place between the Reva show and ANH, and he's depicted as cartoon Alec Guinness there.

It always amuses me that we're supposed to believe that in the span of 5 years Obi-wan goes from looking like Ewan McGregor to looking like Alec Guinness.

 

So, obviously, if you go to a brick-n-mortar store and buy something there, it counts as a sale for the store, with stores that don't get enough sales often closing. But if I order something online from, say, Best Buy and pick it up in store, how is that tracked? Does it count as a sale for the store, even though I didn't actually buy it there? If not, do companies use a separate metric (ie this store doesn't get as many sales, but people still come in to pick up stuff, so we'll keep it open)?
