6 posts were split to a new topic: NSFE: Brand support: “Amazon is rarely, if ever; wrong.”
Apparently posted to the NSFE a few short hours back, 072424/24Jul24/July 24th, 2024 (i.e., no ‘recently-moderated tag’ that I can see, publicly - or any other evidence to the contrary via the multiple vertical-tracing tools in me ol’ kit bag - ‘bolded’ emphasis to the actual body of Josh’s initial post mine):
I realize that there may well be members of our Seller Community who remain perched 'pon the fence, in regards to whether or not I myself am actually a human, but throw the dog a bone.
At least I pay enough attention to know what time it is, globally; I do recall some confusion on that score when crossing (and/or re-crossing) the International Date Line in various ships and aircraft in earlier years of my multiple careers - but 'tis not often that I’ve seen a global corporate conglomerate promulgate a two-day misstep in messaging slipping through the cracks (it’s currently Wednesday, NOT Monday, Josh).
At least, not until Amazon came along…

Highway to Hell.
Ok, so that is a song, if you need a movie, Deliverance. Think the “Squeal like a pig segment.”
Now don’t get me wrong, 12+ years ago, we had a beat them or join them moment.
We were already a Multi-Channel company, so we joined them. I would still do it again.
@papy this does not exactly fit the fun space that the traditional “Lighten Up” thread, a child of the OSFE, had been feel free to move this conversation.

Become a bookseller. Then you can shut out important on-screen dialogue and action in order to suss out the titles of the books on the shelf behind the actors.

Yep. Saw a show recently (Mrs. Maisel??) that had Durant’s “Story of Civilization” series in the background. Fairly easy to pick up on.
Who knows; might even be the set that I sold a few years ago… (I sold a LOtR set to the propmaster for “Young Sheldon” years back, but they used a different set in the show).

So that’s why you have to be very very still. Any movement could trigger a pounce!

@Pepper_Thine_Angus Thanks. I’m planning to see it either tomorrow or sometime this weekend.
I saw Twisters in the IMAX last week and enjoyed it. I live in Tornado Alley and many things about the film looked very familiar.

Not exactly the same scenario, but I was fascinated by the news clip below. An art historian spotted a long-lost portrait of Henry VIII hanging on the wall in the background of a group photo on social media.

At least the series had been sold and not stolen! Can you imagine getting busted for theft after someone posted a picture of your walls and you were dumb enough to display your stolen painting?
OH WAIT – kids are making that mistake every day and the cops roll up pretty fat these days!

Oh, how I do admire me some bitingly-incisive wit:

Hang it up, KJ, and give that man a cigar - we already see the gold medalist!

OMG I may be Banned from SAS.
There is no Federal Department of Dealing with life’s Obstacles.
That is our job, the business owners, the doers, the warriors, the mothers, the fathers, those that care.
That is our job.
