  1. I ask because of this article. Where is the line drawn? https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/17/nyregion/vaccinated-masks-cdc.html
  2. Wow, that's sad. Guarantee there is some mental illness involved there somehow, some way.
  3. Thanks for reminding me about Bob Dole’s campaigning for UBI and drug legalization and full decriminalization! I had forgotten.
  4. Yang rules. If you people want to gaslight, gatekeep and democratboss him to death, so be it, but I don't have to be happy about it.
  5. As opposed to the BAO which is nobody understanding math lol
  6. I saw Yang was getting killed for his Israel tweets; funny. Democrats don't deserve Yang.
  7. Virgil's is gross to me.
  8. Only tangentially related, I watched a 10 minute interview with Mankind and talking about Hell in the Cell and how he went cold and was in a fog for a lot of the match afterwards, which led me to an audiobook clip of Stone Cold's autobiography where he talks about how Owen made an amateur mistake and nearly crippled him and then never apologized before his death. Didn't know how serious that neck injury was, I just remember Stone Cold was the height of his prime and then was out for a long time.
  9. Fantastic movie. Maybe John Goodman's greatest role since Walter. Either way, John Goodman is an American Treasure and best character actor ever. Don't @ me on this.
  10. I think it look like: Instead of paying $2/hour plus tips over which an 8 hour shift averages out to, make up a number, $20/hour. You pay $20 an hour and add 25% restaurant management fee to every bill (or whatever you want to call it, it goes straight to the management costs). No different than the "resort fees" you see at Vegas or Hotels. Or "delivery fee" you see with food delivery, etc. These aren't real fees to cover anything other than management costs. Like I said, it's six one way, half a dozen the other to me. I'm paying the same regardless (X * .25), so might as well architect the way that best helps the workers and restaurant management. Will you lose people who don't want to pay 25%? I have no idea. I've never been someone or known anyone who stiffs waiters and doesn't tip. Is that a sizable contingent of people who dine out? Is the restaurant industry built upon those people? Then the $2/hr strategy is a bail out for those losers, if so, and another reason to squash it. I say all this now, but let me get hit with bad service from servers with bad attitudes because they are not incentivized to do a good job (read: like every other retail worker in America) a couple of times and I bet I'll change my tune. I know me too well.
  11. I wonder if the big blocker and obstacle here is that those who typically patronize the lower/fast-food to middle/fast casual up to your Chili's/TGIF/Cheddar's people aren't the type to tip 20-25% every time they go out no matter what, so they don't want the price bump. For those of us who default to 20-25% no matter what just because we are dumb monkey sheep doing as we are told and conditioned so we are part of polite society, who cares? It's $6 one way and half a dozen the other.
  12. I was presented an opportunity to invest in a big RV park in Iowa. Was intrigued but ultimately passed. I'm kinda regretting now.
  13. Beautiful words, Brisket. I'm sure you made her plenty proud.
  14. It's easy to hate him because he's a fool, but this guy has one of the most beautiful offensive games when he's on. I genuinely love watching him on the offensive end, maybe more than anyone else right now.
  15. Same. Double vaxxed over a month ago, but to be fair, was also living life before also. The only difference is now I don't have to wear masks everywhere, which is nice.
  16. This thread has gotten nutty. It's chaos! @bad_teammate I owe you some thoughtful responses but didn't get online almost all weekend sorry.
  17. Begrudgingly this is where I am today too. Looks like I was wrong about Barnes this year; though I still wish Cuban would build a team to make a deeper run.
  18. Asinine. This is completely different, but I guess that is where we are as a thread and society.
  19. I neither support nor oppose. I respectfully abstain.
  20. Oh also, I enjoy the Amazing World of Gumball more than I should.
  21. Big City Greene rules. It’s like a Squidbillies for kids. Teens Titans Go! Is super clever too and I enjoy watching it. Apple and Onion— not for me and mine. We Bear Bares or whatever it’s called might be the leader in the clubhouse for us.
