It ain't basically like debtor's prisons, it is debtor's prison. That judge going YOU WANNA TAKE IT OUTSIDE I WILL FIGHT YOU IRL was unbelievable, but holy poo poo that the defender didn't miss a beat and lept into the fight head-first. That's the guy I want representing me.

Atomizer posted:I missed last week's episode of LWT because my U-Verse DVR has been making GBS threads a brick and deleting recorded programs, most likely due to a worn-out HDD. Unfortunately, the replacement DVR they sent us, which is clearly used/refurbished, is doing the same thing, but that's another story.

I was watching an old SNL last night, Ben Affleck / N.E.R.D. from March 2004, and the 12:55 sketch used "Janice from Accounting" The Full Moon Killer Either an SNL writer from that era now works on LWT, or it's just a good name/profession combo for comedy writing. Betting on the latter.

This is the first topic Oliver's covered where him and I are in disagreement. Stark disagreement, at that. The arguments he made were facile. The main point, "it costs more to make a penny than the penny's worth!," is true. The flipside of that coin is that dimes and quarters costs far less to make than the coin's face value - in 2014, about 4 and 9 cents, respectively. That year, the US Mint made $289 million worth of coinage after the costs of production, including the loss from pennies and nickels. The secondary point, which boils down to "people don't bother picking up a penny," well, in those big cities, that appears to be true. I've never lived in NYC or San Francisco, but in smaller cities I've lived in, pennies are appreciated. However, I realize the rest of the country which resides outside of the big cities wherein these shows tape doesn't exist/matter, so I'll concede that point. Finally, the notion of getting rid of the ha'penny in 1867, when we were all primates I guess, so what's stopping us now?? A half-penny, by definition, is a fraction of a denomination, not a denomination in itself. It was a necessity of the time, when a penny had more value. Simply put, if a dollar is 100 units, you have to be able to break it into 100 units.

Never mind that a quick Google shows he has at least two houses in seperate states, both of which look like they're worth a few million and of which it's easily conceivable both are worth more than €10 million apiece, depending on the size of the grounds, location etc.
