it’s legally required in florida now because parents can sue the gently caress out of schools if they don’t out their children or any of their kid’s classmates to them.

It’s pretty clear that the entire point is to harass anyone who doesn’t conform until they leave the state, very cool

My message to the admins running somethingawful and giving permabans in cspam is simple: this is a time of war and global peril.

Bring back the posters you are permabanning in cspam to reflect the will of the people in the Trump thread. And do it now.

my favorite Mothersbaugh moment was when an interviewer asked him about being parodied by "Weird Al" Yankovic and he said that Dare To Be Stupid was basically transcendently beautiful and he hated Weird Al because of it

the gas is owned by the distributor (eg Shell, Sunoco) and the gas station earns a small commission on gas sold. conversely, all the cigarettes and junk food are owned by the stations and they pay a small commission to the gas company on sales. the gas is just a way to get people in the door to buy poo poo.

the managers I’ve asked about this haven’t had any actual numbers to give me, but the general consensus was basically nothing.

we make nearly all of our money on the poo poo we get you to buy in the store. that poo poo on a roller grill is pretty profitable, and our pizza covers all of its associated costs (aside from labor) with a single slice being sold.

the whole pizza costs less overall than the $2.79 slice.

alcohol obviously is a pretty good money maker too as you might imagine.

when I was a kid I thought slurpees and icees were competitors but more recently I learned that slurpees actually are icees but in the 1960s when 7-eleven licensed the machines from the icee company the contract included having to call them by a name other than "icee"
