I'm thinking Lowtax chooses a goon for the fight (Lowtax isn't allowed to fight as the rules stipulate no cyborgs), who breaks his arm at the last minute. Just as it looks like the fight will default to Higbee , who is twirling his moustache while paying off the guy he paid to take out Lowtax's fighter, the doors are thrown open and Uwe Boll walks down to the ring. He's already in his boxing gear and throws off his robe before jumping into the ring. Uwe effortlessly defeats Higbee's champion, ending with an uppercut that launches him out of the ring to land on Higbee and Shaunteece. The film ends on Lowtax and Uwe doing a big Carl Weathers and Arnold Schwarzenegger handshake as Uwe says something like "Ze only Zometing Awful now is zat guy's face!"

No, she justified it by saying "I was FORCED into paying these taxes, I'm only getting my money back!" :argh:

Which is broadly true? But she was still a broke-brained harridan who deserved to die impoverished and alone.

Exactly the sort of thing you say when you're having a real normal one and not mad at all, she was actually laughing about how much you all cared, hahaha she was thinking to herself smugly and definitely not grateful for the system saving her because that wasn't what was going on

They never left, friend. Legal wages are still stagnant as gently caress and except for the biglaw types. Even they are only making $40-45 an hour on average to make their $190k/yr.

For example, entry level attorney wages in Florida range from $36k to $55k. I'm sure there are some people down here who started higher than that, but anyone in a state job is between $39-45k to start and the private sector has actually offered me under that rate so far. I did not go to a third tier toilet. My school is tier 1.

I almost worked for a firm like Higbee until they told me that it would be $20/hr 1099 to go chase class action suits against at&t or comcast for not calling at the exact right time of day.

Some people might think those wages are decent. The average law school grad, though, has a few hundred thousand in student loan debts and cannot even make minimum payments on most starting lawyer wages around here.

drat that sucks, this is actually pretty similar to the current situation for veterinarians. Average starting salary about $60k, average debt load as of 2016 about $160k and 20% of those in debt are above $200k. I use an income driven repayment plan, otherwise my monthly payment would be almost $1700 a month. If course the slower you pay it off the more interest accrues so it's really not ideal. But there's no way I could afford a payment like that, that's even higher than my rent, and rent ain't cheap here. The fact that many countries have free or at least very inexpensive college tuition (I think degrees above the bachelor's level might charge but I don't think it's very much) is super depressing honestly.

Lol yeah 1 year of veterinary school costs about $50,000 if you are out of state, half that if you are in state. It's a 4 year program. :suicide:

And that's just tuition, that doesn't include any living costs and you also have to buy your own textbooks.
