I wonder what their defense will be. "You said it would process in milliseconds, but it took hours to complete!!"

"Sure, it took hours...but it still happened in milliseconds, too..."

That would be such a Caboose type of defense 😂

“Time... line? Time isn't made out of lines. It is made out of circles. That is why clocks are round.”

Oh man, I haven't thought about RvB in so long, thank you 😂

"The Sarge is still a Lieutenant? Oh. My. God. The teleporter sent me back in time!"

Why are there six pedals but only four directions?

Well, yeah, they didn't specify how MANY milliseconds. 10,000,000 milliseconds is still milliseconds.

Judges are still going to take reasonable interpretations of the language into context, though.

Judges are gonna take bags of money with dollar signs on them.

It's called a joke. Look it up

Sounds like he’s got a solid case.

Salesforce is hot garbage. They also bought slack a while ago and during our last renewal of slack they tried to strongarm us into buying more Salesforce shit. We had to get our legal department involved and everything. Absolute farce.

Fake it till you make it. It's the American motto.
