Being an aristocrat is BWM. Look at all these complaints. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/a...k&ICID=ref_fark quote:There are the enormous running costs, for one thing, and it’s a full-time job (seriously) managing the staff. Add to that punitive taxes, worries about the next generation and the constant need for repairs and, they say, living in a fabulous mansion does not make for a very easy life. This is terrible and they should sell and get a cheaper home. Oh no look at the heating and electrical costs. quote:Heating costs £40,000 a year. Electricity was £60,000, but we recently spent £500,000 on a hydro-electricity system so we can produce our own. You see they're going broke, hold on, half a million pounds on a hydro power system? quote:But still, we have occasionally had to sell off key pieces to meet bills, such as a 2,000-year-old statue of Venus, which we sold at auction for £8 million. Yeah they're obviously poor as gently caress. It's a hard life being paupers.

What's the quickest way you've seen someone gently caress up their life? Some of the things in that thread are truly awesome and terrible to behold. quote:A friend of mine was sure he was going to be a pro overwatch player. Dropped out of school before the game even came out. Now he has no money, no education and no job. quote:This happened in a 2 week period. quote:This may not be as bad as some of the other answers, but a friend of mine took out a loan for $250,000 (I promise, I am not exaggerating this number) to pay for her "dream wedding" to a guy she had known for 3 months. They got divorced after less than a year and she is still in debt from it. unfortunately no search results for horse... e. formatting Guest2553 fucked around with this message at 03:44 on Apr 21, 2017 |

There are a number of significant drug gently caress ups, one where a student fucks his lungs pretending something like sodium hydroxide is a line of cocaine, and a pedophile who downloaded child porn to US postal service computer. It's an exceptional thread.

i always thought that if you willingly got into a car with a driver that you knew was drunk, it should just be on you if you eat poo poo for it of course on the flip side i don't give a poo poo if drunk drivers get all the blame in the world so who cares lol

I think that's a big minus. I've stopped a fair few people from driving drunk. One time I woke up with a hangover and a set of car keys in my pocket. Apparently someone was going to drive drunk so they took their keys and passed them to me. No chance of drunk driving when that happens.

That fentanyl story is disturbing. A drug addict failed to kick the habit, two people murdered him over a quarrel, and the friend who posted the story knows one of the perpetrators yet doesn't even think to mention whether he reported it to the cops. I dunno, that's just not as funny as horse rollerskates.

Police in Germany have charged a man suspected of being behind an attack on the Borussia Dortmund team bus. Rather than having links to radical Islamism, he was a market trader hoping to make money if the price of shares in the team fell, prosecutors say. So I suppose trying to game the stock market is GWM, but using explosives - and making your share purchases from the same hotel as the players were staying in - not so much. Also, although my stock market knowledge isn't brilliant, by my reckoning he only made about 5k euro profit (15,000 put options and the share price only dropped 30 cents) which probably barely covered his hotel stay.

A story from my job: "How to lose your easy job in one sentence" We had two truck drivers at my shop. One is an older Polish guy and one is a younger Mexican fellow. We've all survived 8 rounds of layoffs, so at this point we're all considered 'cream of the crop'. This can go to some peoples' heads and make them cocky about how secure they are here. A lot of the time, the truck drivers kinda hang out in shipping and play on their phones, drink coffee, and bullshit on the clock. Typical machine shop stuff. Our younger driver was out on a delivery to a customer and the receivers were all on break. Nobody would receive the shipping ticket until they were back on the clock. So, instead of just sitting in the truck and playing on his phone, like they all do when they have gently caress-all to do in the shop, he proceeds to blow up at the clerk and say the following: "Why don't you just sign the loving paper so I can unload this poo poo?". That guy got on the phone to his boss, who got on the phone to his boss, who called our account manager. Our young driver had no job by the time he pulled in the gate. You could see our operations manager pacing the shipping office for hours waiting for that guy to get back. Cursing at the customer: bad with life. Bonus Schadenfreude: our trucks are all flatbeds so a CDL is not required in this state, so he didn't have one. All that experience driving and no CDL. I suspect he won't collect unemployment since I'd expect he was fired 'with cause'. E: the breaktime over there is supposedly 15 minutes, so that's the maximum he would've had to wait. That kind of time could be easily killed in Houston traffic. BloodBag fucked around with this message at 13:17 on Apr 21, 2017 |

Notorious b.s.d. posted:Ironically, U.S. dollars were on a very firm gold standard in 1875. The problem was that all currency was issued by individual banks*. Well there was a big push against fiat (or rather bimetallism, the predecessor) back then too because the gold standard predominately benefitted the rich and they wanted to make sure it stayed that way. There's a whole bunch of great propaganda about it too
