Interesting question, is there anyway a Garfield themed restaurant chain could of really worked in some how 2020 (minus the covid stuff)?

I think it could have worked if the food had been good and it actually served people food and let them eat it. Pitching it as an iPad ordering, app based takeaway was nuts.

That's quite the claim to fame. Not saying she wasn't or anything, just that many made that claim before and weren't.

I got one yesterday and dreamt about ghosts trying to steal a Marine strike team’s dicks and balls. Those ghosts were just leaving dismembered dicks and balls lying around. It was hosed up.

They may have been space marines, I’m not entirely certain. Also their CO was a woman named “Tracy” who seemed very concerned about the dick and ball theft but I suspected was in league with the ghosts

That's presuming there will be a hundred "investors", which is a pretty big presumption. Weren't there "hundreds" of applicants (on paper) to speed-date Nathen?

Yes. It’s even an infamous part of forum lore.

After Katrina (17 years ago :monocle:), Lowtax set up a PayPal for hurricane relief. After raising $30k in a day, PayPal locked the account and refused to disburse funds unless Lowtax provided tracking numbers for the “goods” PayPal thought the donors were due. Since that’s loving stupid, he asked them to just donate it to the Red Cross, which they also refused to do, saying they would only send donations to the United Way. After folks here pointed out that the United Way has some…dubious practices, Lowtax told them to just refund everything, and they only did that after keeping the forex fees.

Of course, it’s Lowtax, so who knows how much of it was a lie, but he put up a front page article about it.
