Shalebridge Cradle posted:That's still not great. And no one even noticed the US existed until WWII. OK some of that was euros being assholes, but it's not an empire if no one acknowledges it. No one noticed the US in the 1860's enough to send aid or foreign dignitaries to overwatch/influence what was going on. No one apparently noticed the US through the next 80 years or so after including the US being a popular place for people to go for a new life, or becoming a military power house, or beg to enter a great war, or to be globally effected by a US stock market crash, no, the US was nothing till WWII

You know, sure things aren't the greatest right now, and the US is entering one of those "we're hosed" eras, but at least our president isn't black any more.

Apraxin posted:The couple went through "a lot of savings" after Aime was denied access to certain sorts of care under Medicare because of his age and condition, she says. Instead they had to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to secure the treatment they wanted. Because regular pre AHA insurance wasn't shittier than this and you wouldn't have wasted all that money and more.

TL;DR just some angry crazy bitch lashing out at whatever is the easiest target

Given that he had a stroke while she was diagnosed with cancer and they were both elderly? Cancer treatments are expensive as hell and seeing that she was elderly, likely wasn't getting chemo cause it would kill her while he probably had to have nursing care around the clock

punchymcpunch posted:the other day i went to a mcdonalds for the first time in 10 years and everything was so confusing But we're trying to appeal to the younger generations while still appealing to the older generations while being hip and in with the fads. McDonald's is like those fashionistas that have to be with the times all the time. When shake and ice cream sales went down they went "triple thick" which wasn't any change and started fancying their poo poo up. When coffee and bistros became the newest fad McDonald's dropped their poo poo to modernize to be a whore for coffee.

jBrereton posted:fwiw I hope that South and North Korea can find a path to peace after the utterly insane and corrupt Park + Kim familes are both taken out of the picture. I think, realistically, the south doesn't want it because that would require a major influx of money, tech and modernization to bring empty (like literally empty buildings and all) cities, non existent infrastructure, and lovely rural starvation lands up to what passes as livable conditions. This still doesn't take into consideration all the conditioning and indoctrinating that needs to be dealt with, or the fact China would be going batshit having a US ally like a footstep over their southern border

Joementum posted:The Irish are well know for their love of royalty. I wonder if at any point during Trump's golf history if he had rules like "you can't beat me" or some were passed along like "don't beat him by more than a few strokes". Also if he had employees out "greenskeeping" to give his shots that little nudge closer to the holes. I can see him settling in after a year and demanding a tee off area be built on the roof so he can drive golfballs into the crowds of people on the street. Signature golf balls for the people! Plus a chance to beam a liberal!

The damage it will do to the vast majority of Americans, including their base, will enrage the people to the point that nothing else they do will save their seats come election time. Never under estimate the power of American conservatism. They elected an assclown with so many scandals no one could keep track of them all* for president after all *And is currently under investigation again for something shady and illegal again and is continuing to do shady and illegal poo poo while his base basically begs him to finish on their faces

Truga posted:https://twitter.com/darth/status/844750981422202882 Oh psh, Trump ran on getting rid of healthcare and won. But then he learned healthcare really is a good thing and aside from what we have, there's no real way to improve it that will keep support. So they made this train wreck and is destined to fail so all the Republicans can say "see, we tried, but those shifty democrats sunk it" and their base will again drop to their knees and beg to be pissed on. Republican leadership is shady and smart, their followers, however, are gullible and a step below retarded.

Consummate Professional posted:Sunday is the worst day of the week to work in retail, I wish I knew why When i worked in fast food my boss was highly religious, to the point of praying at the beginning of his shifts. I mentioned to him once "You ever notice how everyone goes to church to learn about Jesus, love everyone, and be nice. But as soon as the service ends the roads become a Mario Kart match of who can be the biggest rear end in a top hat to get to a restaurant first?". He was not amused. I've also known customers to ask why we were working on a sunday instead of being in church. It took me all my will power not to answer "Because old fucks like you would raise hell if we weren't open so you could stuff another cheeseburger in your face". Thank god when i got moved to maintenance I got sundays off. Of course every other monday was the bi weekly cleaning of the shake/ice cream machine and that was a hell all it's own when i had to fight the urge to beat customers down with one of the beaters from the machine

C-Euro posted:This is the nth time someone here has said something like this but he seriously speaks like a child. This sounds like me writing a paper in elementary or middle school and needing to stretch one sentence into an entire paragraph to reach the length requirement. That's because all he knows is what he learned about business, and that's not a whole lot. He doesn't have a clue what the problems are and is trying to apply poor and broken business models to politics. Hell if Fox News fell for the old Dihydrogen monoxide hoax you can bet your rear end Trump would be on twitter bitching about this new menace and pushing Congress to install a ban on it despite everyone telling him it's just water. He won't listen because he's the smartest guy, bigly, and Fox News told him water was bad
