  1. Unfortunately that’s how we looked up until about 10 days before season close
  2. This is impossible. Food companies make profit, I mean gouge. And for profit corporations barely even pay living wages. Some people even die trying to make it to director. This post tells me so much. I wish you would have posted this years ago, I’ve spent a lot of time trying to figure you out. I got the healthcare thing, and now, the economics
  3. No it wasn’t, dumbfuck. It was my anecdotal experience, and that was clear. You aren’t really this fucking stupid? Or maybe you work in govt?
  4. Weekend warrior you can do a lot with the 110’s. I’m going on 15 years will a little Hobart 110. I also keep a 50a Lincoln box around for anything thicker. I got rid of the bigger stuff years ago when I realized I can use the shop stuff for anything I can’t handle at home.
  5. We spent the whole last page talking about the 80/20 rule. And yet we still gaf about how they feel their life is going? Maybe they should tighten up and dip into the 20% and find some happiness.
  6. Exactly. And as a bonus, I don’t even cry myself to sleep thinking about potentially losing electricity for 12 hours during a once a decade storm, or the price of a bag of Doritos going up 35%. Dreaming about how we can force people to drive cars we feel are sensible, and pondering why there aren’t any builders that want to leave money on the table to build shotgun houses for anyone and everyone who deserves a roof, in town of course.
  7. He actually seems extremely competent when discussing his field (comp sci/tecH iirc) in other threads. How you can work for a for profit company, and invest in for profit companies and then also believe everything you feel is overpriced is gouging or should be provided by Washington has got to be one hell of a struggle.
  8. No, I’m under the impression we have a bunch of folks between 12 and 30 who are having a hard time figuring out what 10’s (hundreds?) of millions around them have. Even after (presumably) being raised in a better house, in a better hood, while receiving a better education, and having more opportunity and technology at their fingertips than any preceding generation, they cannot find “happiness”, however that’s personally defined.
  9. Yeah, time flies and I realized that was some years ago since I was running the roads solo. I could have also said “a few hundred thousand less” if that works for you. Surprise, people make considerably more a decade into their careers.
  10. I sold all my OXY waaaaaaay too soon. Womp
  11. That is the kind of shit lawyers salivate over. Thanks for the vid, new S class already on order.
  12. That was also a decade ago. And was making about 25% of current salary. So seems to be tracking with wages.
  13. Everything should be provided to us for free for existing!!1!1. Billionaires should pay for it all. I participate in 401k and other investments but will act like I don’t know how they work. There, I got your next 10 posts covered. Saved us all some time, so you can think harder about why nobody here (anywhere) wants to live in a little duplex next to duplex house people and drive shitbox cars and eat cheap food.
  14. We’ll fuck me, I’m joining the disgruntled yoots. I used to stop and get 5 or so on road trips. Easy to eat with one hand and cheap af. This is depressing.
  15. We aren’t shitting on humans. We are shitting on Americans and blowing the Finns. Yet every single chain sells $1 kids burgers. 4 justaburgers can hit the spot right quick for $5. We (me) choose that #2 and whatasize it, and that long predated Facebook and MySpace. I implore to you to digest post #81 and tell me about where profit falls into that conversation.
  16. Correct. And I was on the first or second page if that thread saying burn the guys down. Still, people killing people, then being held responsible for their act is how it’s supposed to work. I can’t speak to the asshole with an AK at low ready getting shot by an asshole hiding his piece in a car. Seems like FAFO applies well there, where it did not in Abery’s case. Elon…
  17. No. Anyone who can afford a 100k pickup can afford a 22k shitbox. We choose not to, as is our right. Neighbor just bought some new Nissan shitbox for his 16yo. 28k off the lot, they exist. You are insinuating that affordable vehicles don’t exist. Individuals make the decision to forgo thay option. Affordable homes are available. Not, you cannot find them in Beverly Hills, River oaks, or the park cities. They are building rows and rows of little pos houses 10 miles west of me right now, completely fucking up multi million dollar horse properties all around. Which is going to cause them to sale because they didn’t sign up to live next to the dregs, opening up more land for shitty little houses occupied by people who live in shitty little houses. The market exists for everyone.
  18. Oh I read Ahmaud Arbery. To which I directly replied. Any other cases involving two armed men of the same race in a emotionally charged situation from 4 states away wasnt considered.
  19. Where the murderers will die in prison for their crime? Wouldn’t that be our justice system functioning normally?
  20. And who’s fault is it for needing a pavement princess brodozer? Certainly not the manufacturer’s. They build sensible, affordable, and fuel efficient cars, too. They don’t sell in the quantities you think are correct, but who is to blame. Why would a for profit builder focus on shotgun houses when your money comes in the less costly additional footage? Not to mention that house is likely to get a solid loan from a solid buyer because news flash, people buying high end shit typically are more sorted than those that cannot. What we can all agree to is if that there is more money to be made there, it would be happening. This would be akin to you lowering your hourly rate, while working harder, to accommodate clients who are less likely to pay. Do you practice that way in your practice? Not a one off pro Bono shit you’ve done, have you designed your practice that way for the better good (those that can’t afford 650/hr attorney)?
  21. No one is minimizing their issues. But that’s what it is, their issue. If Brisket can find happiness with red beans and rice with the family, so can anyone. If someone need caviar to feel happy, but can’t gain it themselves, then we’re just scapegoating. Life is pretty pretty fucking good here.
  22. This is entirely on the individual. No one can force you to be satisfied you aren’t rich/successful/whatever goal you’ve set except yourself. Trying to place blame on you tubers or govt or whatever is just scapegoating. This is an individual problem.
