Previously, I had never ever seen a movie in theaters twice. If I had seen a movie once and wanted to watch it again, I could wait to buy it for myself. It just didn’t ever make much sense to me as to why anyone would watch the same movie multiple times in like a one-month time span.
And then Everything Everywhere All At Once came out, and I saw it again the week after I saw it the first time, and then I understood. What a fantastic movie.
yo it’s coco jumbo
Tip value sure, but tip percentage? I mean think about it, the price of the food will go up, so the percent of that elevated food price will also go up. Like, if I bought a $20 meal and tipped 15%, that’s a $3. But if because of inflation or whatever, the $20 meal increases its price to $40, a 15% tip is now $6. The tip has gone up, but the percentage has remained the same.
So why are tips now going up to 21, 23, 25, hell I’ve seen a tablet that suggested 30%? (We all know the answer why, I’m being rherorical.)
No they don’t, this is tax fraud and illegal. Companies are not allowed to claim donation round-ups as their own for tax purposes. They may match donations, which they can claim, but they cannot claim money they did not spend as their own donations. You, however, can, if you keep your receipts.
“Just because it’s illegal doesn’t mean they don’t do it” – Fair point, but this is the IRS we’re talking about. I doubt big business are willing to fuck around that particular avenue. Other avenues, definitely.
the urge to downvote this is very strong, well done
okbuddyphd, shittymobilegameads, pizzacrimes, garfieldwithoutgarfield, just all the really stupid obscure ones that give me a chuckle browsing through.
H*LL YEAH BROTHER
CRANK THAT MFIN HOG TODAY AND TOMORROW
The twitter account is a satire account. They’re trying to stir the pot.
Former college TA for physics here, I can tell you that not every teacher/professor does this by choice. My professor was obligated to use the textbook which included an access key for a homework site. He had to use this homework site (which already had the questions on it, he didn’t make them), which meant students had to buy the hardcopy textbooks to gain access to the homework portal to do and submit the homework. He knew it was bullshit, I knew it was bullshit, the students all knew it was bullshit, but his hands were tied. He had no choice, and I could see the pain in his eyes whenever anyone asked why he assigned homework using the online service rather than good old fashioned paper and pencil.
Well, who forces him to use this system? Follow the money, you’ll probably figure it out. This was at a very large university in the US, but I can assure you this happens at all colleges, big and small.
The only drawback is how long your onosecond is. If you have a very high onosecond, the undo send button can’t help ya.
My father had the worst flu of his life in January of 2020, bed-ridden for a week. And conveniently, he never caught covid. He’s absolutely convinced what he had was covid, and at this point, I’m inclined to believe it.
To me, what you’re describing is exactly monogamy, but you’re classifying it wrong. Sure, you have a lot of partners before you find your “the one”. I’ve had 3 so far. But that doesn’t exclude you from monogamy once you’ve had your first partner, which is what you brushed off in your first sentence. Monogamy is one partner at a time, not that you find one person at the very beginning and get it right the very first time.
The idea of finding “the one” is, to me, someone that I want to spend the rest of my life with. And it takes a long time to find that person. And there’s more than one “the one” out there! I know that sounds contradictory, but come on, there’s 8 billion people out there, any set of desirable traits you could write down are shared by who knows how many hundreds of thousands of people. So you date lots of people, get to know lots of people, and then when you find someone who checks all your checkboxes and who you can see living with til death do you part, then you stay with them.
One might say one person for who knows how many dozens of years could get boring, or that one person at a time is too restrictive. To them I’d say, that’s fine, you’re polyamorous or something of the sort, and that’s okay. But to me, having one and just one partner is special. I’m entirely theirs and they’re entirely mine (in a romantic way, not a possessive way), and that’s just how I like it. I want someone, just one person, I can always rely on to watch a terrible movie with, always have a player two, always rant to or be ranted to, and so on. That’s what makes it special. The exclusiveness is part of the charm, I suppose-- it’s not just any old person they want, it’s me they want. And my feeling is mutual to them.
I don’t think I wrote this exactly the way I wanted it to come out, and I mulled over it a couple times, but I hope I got my point across. Everyone’s different, and that’s okay.
…elaborate?
It’s not a good meme, but it’s my most current. I’m reading Steel Ball Run right now.
Butter Chicken (curry), usually. It’s so stupid easy, it just takes a few hours of marinade and simmer time. But you’re just frying chicken cubes, boiling together tomatoes, onions, spices etc, blending it together, and serving. Couldn’t be simpler, and it is always delicious.
ISO 8601 or nothing. Descending order of granularity, keep everything sorted as it should be!
If they didn’t like metal, why did they get into the car in the first place? The entire chassis is made of metal, they shoulda got back into their wooden cars!
It’s correct, just a bit confusing to parse at first. Like a garden path sentence, but with commas.
