This is a product of Bill's imagination, written with ironic exaggeration as comedy, but, it is very loosely based on actual experiences Bill had ... long ago ... flavored with a garam masala of contemporary references

 Could you at least tell the market this vendor is in? Too much Harry Potter, not enough concern for your fellow man.

I'm surprised the manager could add those numbers in his/her head on the fly. Better than average manager.

Is it illegal where you are to kill your son?
It's Sunday night. The Boy (18) went out with friends to the city to get pissed and stay over a friends place.
The Daughter (15) is in bed.
So I plan on getting some rooting from the wife.
Now the Boy is on the way home and wants to get picked up from the train station. I'm on beer 9 (?) and once the wife finds out she's all ready to pick him up and I'm getting nothing.
As the only Mike Hunt in this household earning money I think they can all get faarrrkkkked and I'll spend whatever I earn on myself until the ATO (Tax faarrrkkkers come and get me). Haven't done the past 2 years tax as working for myself I have to put the money aside for tax. Unfortunately I live with f***wits who don't understand that every dollar in isn't mine to spend.

Root beer?

I guess calling your family f***wits must be some Australian thing...
Or a "I-drank-9-beers" thing...

Probably not, but I don't have a son so I'm not familiar with that kind of law.
What I DO know is that "because he wanted me to pick him up" isn't a good reason for aforementioned kill.
Every son or daughter calls at least once during his teens to pick him or her up (and with once I mean a gazillion times).
Think of something better, like "he's an evil mastermind keeping me from my root and so making humanity go extinct!".
It's just an idea, but I think you can work it out from there

I'd say it's an MM thing; but other than also including "I-drank-9-rums" things I'm not sure there's much of a difference. Or at least not when looking at what he posts here. OTOH MM's drunk posts are at least understandable, something that DD's rarely were.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I misread that as "getting some routine from the wife". That's nice, having your wife do some of the development work.

Looks like all of this is a result of putting intelligence in the machine ... recommender systems and all of that!
About thirty years ago, when in college, my professor had introduced computers as 'dumb machines which compute extremely fast'. I'd be happier if they had still remained dumb.
