You live in the country with 25% of the worlds prisoners and 5 times the homicide rate of an average OECD country. Maybe you should stop drinking the lead water and wake up to the shithole America is becoming.Jay wrote:

There is a better way of doing things, the rest of the world has worked this out. Time for North America to catch up (and I don't just mean pricing format).
It's also got nothing to do with not thinking, especially when they don't even advertise there is extra tax let alone what that tax rate is. Anyway I have more important things to think about like why the fuck I need to prepay for fuel and then try to guesitmate how much I need and how much it will cost, without going over, price is right style. The system is absurd and the fact you defend it, while ignoring another identical example is even more absurd.

America (and Canada) is an awful country. Nothing like getting to the checkout and finding out my $10 wont cover the cost of my $9 meal.

Well he said, you'll be the greatest president in the history of, but you know what, I'll take that also, but that you could be. But he said, will be the greatest president but I would also accept the other. In other words, if you do your job, but I accept that. Then I watched him interviewed and it was like he never even was here. It's incredible. I watched him interviewed a week later and it's like he was never in my office. And you can even say that.
I liked the part where the new head of the EPA had a speech inside a coal mine celebrating the removable of polluting regulations.

I don't hate Americans, I just hate arrogance. It just happens that those 2 things overlap a lot.
Also I've never heard anyone complain about Russian tourists and had no complaints myself. The Chinese with their complete lack of common courtesy and the fact they roam around in hoards of 40 is annoying, but nothing tops the Americans who complain about everything and do it so loudly.

Where's the study of people taking lsd 4-5 times a day for 10+ years?uziq wrote:
4-5 cups of coffee a day will do measurable harm to you. you don't need to take some comical amount (although of course its drastically lower LD50 means it is much easier to get in deep trouble with caffeine; nobody has ever died from an LSD or psilocybin overdose).
Also lethal dose of lsd is said to be around 15mg, while caffeine is said to be around 10g... That's 600 times as deadly.
So you're entire argument is people don't take lsd very often so its perfectly safe?
If people only took 10mg of alcohol once or twice in their lifetime it would be perfectly safe too.

"Well basically, I just copied the ObamaCare we have now. Then, I added some fins to lower wind resistance. And this racing stripe here I feel is pretty sharp."
So it's basically ObamaCare except it accomplishes less, benefits the rich more, and leaves more people without coverage. Brilliant, that's pretty much exactly what I expected from Trump and the GOP.
It's hard not to notice that Trump's fingerprints are far away from this, I would put money on him having absolutely nothing to do with it. I expect he found it all too difficult and just told Ryan to get something cobbled together that might score a pass mark. The result is a shit compromise that angers people who were opposed to ObamaCare because it's too similar to it and pisses off people who support ObamaCare by hobbling it. No-one wins. As per usual in the US health system.

I'd say they go out and eat out far more the your average minimum wage earner in the US, considering those in the US need to work about 80 hrs a week just to pay for rent.uziq wrote:

This is the kind of bullshit that the republicans try to spin. Companies do not hire people because their tax bill will be reduced, they hire people to fulfill demand. Reducing taxes and cutting regulations does nothing to increase demand.Jay wrote:
Because theoretically, you save them a lot of money on both their tax sheets and in compliance costs, money that could then be freed up to be spent to create new jobs.

Minimum wage is $17.70 per hour or $672.70 per 38 hour week (before tax). Which includes 4 weeks paid vacation.
Casual employees also get at least a 25 per cent casual loading. But no paid leave.
It's about 70% of Baldurs Gate grandeur. Still the best CRPG to come out since though.

About the only thing not broken is highest max temperature. But there's still a month left of summer.

Clearly he bows his head to his infallible commander and chief and admits someone as cunning and deceptive to fool a quarter of the America public has earnt the right to manipulate laws to financially benefit himself. Trump has worked hard his whole life and is now entitled to rob the country use his position of power for his own gain.
So Trump is resolving his conflict of interests with his business by handing over management to his 2 sons... Is this a joke?

Rogue one - 6
Pretty disappointing. The first half is a schizophrenic kaleidoscope of meaningless places and character which are never revisited or important in anyway to the movie. The main cast is completely unlikable, cliched and mostly irrelevant. The script/story was overly complicated for no reason and the action was overdone formulaic and ultimately unbelievable.
Not as bad as the other prequels but still built around the premise of selling toys to kids rather then a compelling story.

it's also gross seeing people literally saying shit like 'may the force be with her' because she's dead. a person died. she was that character for about 7 hours of fucking screen time.
You do know it's a book from the 1840s and there's been at least 15 different film and television adaptations. If you're talking about this version can I recommend this mini-series as its far more in depth and closer to the source material.

Just got back from 2 months in the US and there was a distinct lack of ceiling lights in many places and lamps were the only sources of light.
