- Comment on To all you outside of the US... 3 days ago:
We wish… the good/bad neighbour analogy is very apt here; whatever happens in the USA spills over here all the time.
We are about to enter our own Trump shit show when PP is elected next year.
- Comment on The heart we can't neglect indeed 6 days ago:
Think of it this way…
You take all your money and you have a lawyer form a charity (no tax) that you control. The charity rakes in even more money and all they make (via investment) is tax free (or practically so)
Meanwhile, since you are employed by that charity, it pays for your mansions, trips, fancy foods, vacations, yachts, whatever you want… Basically it is like having a rich daddy that buys everything for you and you never have to worry about money
- Comment on The current state of auto insurance: shit that belongs on a shady Kickstarter from 2013 2 weeks ago:
These apps are so bad they have recorded people “hard braking” when they are home watching TV (just check the Play store for any of them and read the reviews)… there is no way this isn’t ripe for abuse
- Comment on Car 3 weeks ago:
I understood this joke… then felt sad because I felt old… then felt mad because I miss my manual cars…
- Comment on The starting salary for a new American Airlines flight attendant is low enough to qualify for food stamps in some states 5 weeks ago:
but every single election, you all insist to me that I have to vote for a capitalist as a moral imperative.
Have you ever had the choice to vote anyone other than a capitalist?
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
Exactly, what are people having such a hard time understanding the context of the scenario in play?
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
I would assume that, the term “fight” implies a more direct combat… Not a scenario where we can plan for traps and such
If I ask you in person if you’d beat me in a fight? You wouldn’t think of a scenario where we both come home and make a master plan to ruin each other… It would be more like “let’s go or the parking lot and beat each other like monkeys”
It’s just the scenario I imagined from the question
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
I imagined this question as in a boxing ring/cage style fight… if planning is involved, I can say I have killed thousands of cattle and even more large hogs just by participating in buying their meat at the grocery store
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
not in the context of the question… sure our outsmating/outlasting certainly offsets and overwhelms any talon, claws, fangs, venom nature can throw at us… but the context here is a mano a mano fight

A horse?! that guy is delusional… most men won’t have the ability to defeat (unarmed) anything bigger than a medium size dog…
Anything bigger will likely overpower a regular human, most smaller would just be too fast or have different, naturally occurring weaponry to defeat us
