I've had cashiers comment on the ridiculous amount of chocolate I buy, or this one time when I bought a new flavor of Naked fruit juice the cashier hadn't tried yet.

Skwirl posted:Yeah, how much rent can you even charge for a something you're mom bought at $13,000, like what condition were these places in? looks like pretty decent - the story takes place in joliet, illinois which is a distant suburb of chicago. far enough out of the city to be cheap, but not so far that there's no demand for housing. zillow shows a bunch of small but decent condos available starting in the $50k range so i could see someone buying a foreclosed condo for $13k, maybe with some condition that the tenant left a bunch of poo poo there and it needs to be professionally cleaned. folks who want to get a foot on the property/landlord ladder often start at foreclosure auctions. if you're living rent free with grandma, two working adults could take out cheap mortgages to buy condos and the rental cost could easily cover the mortgage and make a nice profit

kecske posted:you need something like an income of $30k with no other material assets considered to be in the top 1.5% of income globally, which I imagine most goon-type computer toucher jobs satisfies. Is the goon stereotype of "comfortable computer toucher" true anymore? Also hell is the whole concept of getting a well-paying office job by being goony enough still a thing now? I work in an (veterinary) office and have to both touch computers and clean dog poo poo and I get the minimum wage! Also I'm late but this is sticking out to me: quote:when her father had a stroke in 2013, she knew it was time to make the transition. Sorry dad, but your loss is my gain

I don't think rural kazakhs give a poo poo about HENRYs, and their standard for it is probably way different. Seems like something that should be looked at regionally.

Also Trump had his personal lawyer do the work outside the state department, which throws the legitimacy of the decision into question even if the decision wasn’t already an impeachable offense. It’s layers upon layers of gross misconduct.

Trump using that as his defense and people playing along is part of him controlling the dialog. The Congress can impeach POTUS for any reason it wants, or none. Legality is an afterthought; impeachment is a political process, . So no, direct quid pro quo isn't needed for impeachment, but the cautious, handwringing, message-testing Democrats have allowed the GOP, with the compliance of the media, to set the bar at criminal quid pro quo. Just like they set the bar at actual collusion for the Mueller stuff. Matthew Whitaker was on Fox last night saying, and I am literally quoting here, "Abuse of power is not a crime". https://twitter.com/notmbr/status/1185642170184880128

I can't believe nobody else is confounded by the fact that MarketWatch is shaming AOC for the imaginary budget some guy drew up for her imaginary family. I mean It's like if you got mad at your girlfriend because you had a dream where she was cheating on you And you expected other people to get mad at her too

It's ref working, bad-faith whining and it works. Turns out Zuckerberg has been having private dinners with conservatives and twitter constantly bends over backwards to protect racists and nazis. The whole slavish devotion to the "both sides narrative" is because of all the whining Rush etal. did about the liberal media when AM radio was the primary vector for alt right fever madness in the 90s

My partner gets 'mad' at me for wrongs I do in their dreams. But we use that as a joke and no one is actually serious about it. This is the correct way to do it and not some sort of weird forced into thought crime bullshit that genuinely getting mad about that stuff is.
