Except one brand measures in ounces and another grams for the same exact product. So you end up having to convert anyway.

maybe it's different for those millies who tend to be less social & less socialized, but going by the teeners I see hanging in the park to get high just as their foremothers did 50 years ago I don't think it's true for zoomers.

Euros are crazy with the cigarettes though. My cousin buys big ol bags of loose tobacco and rolls them up with one hand on a windy day. I'm very impressed by his skills

the only thing i remember from Pulitzer winning novel "The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay" was a scene where one of the characters is idly going thru the cigarette butts in an ash tray to put together one cigarette worth smoking. I remember thinking, drat id probably do that if it was WW2 too

I bought a house out of college for 120k in the boonies. I got laid off by the one single employer in the area in 2017 and sold it for 150k and started renting because I moved to a new city with employers. I'm a loving clown, basically everyone I graduated with own houses with massive gains on them lol. my old house is estimated 400k now btw

yea there is at least one guy that always shows up to the monthly library sales here with buckets and just loads them up with whatever reference/textbooks are for sale without even looking at them because all the books are less than a dollar

no, it means that the weight on the price tag is 2 lbs over what the weight is when you weigh it on a scale. you don't weigh chicken at self-checkout, that scale is for like produce and bulk candy, all meat is pre-tagged before you get to the counter

I guess my assumption going in was "wal mart's checkout scales are hosed" because the lawsuit was about the checkout scales being hosed, not about already packed weighted stuff being fraudulently weighted by over double

you are incorrect, it is specifically for already packed weighted stuff

ah got you, id just heard about the checkout stuff over and over and the one article I read focused on it exclusively for some reason

outlook hosed their search up. it worked for years and then overnight it gives you algorithmically ordered search, like, highlights instead. Dogshit

That's such a nonsense question when you think about how most businesses operate anyway.

"suppose you are willing to pay up to $1000 for landscape work. Your favorite contractor bids $1100. Do you maintain your business relationship with the contractor of known reputation or do you throw the dice and find someone else?"

Obviously you find someone else lower, $1100 is a hard number on the sheets, landscaping doesn't even make any money so who cares? Take the first $1099 bid you find
