Calling other people “NPC” is cringe

Someone else already posted comps for the whole area and 2 to 3 million is closer.
The house from the movie goes for more than the surrounding properties due to its fame

Poison the air and recieve pieces of colored paper in exchange. It’s a good trade
- Comment on Anon is a man of steel 2 weeks ago:
The mill is doing fine. The increased tariffs help them sell their product since they are producing US made steel.
The mill will close after the tariffs crash the economy and they have no one left to buy their steel, but for a few quarters the profits were amazing

That value may be inflated due to the film.
I’d like to see comparative properties in the same area

From Google AI:
So it’s unsourced and likely inaccurate.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
I’d guess 2 to 3 million.
If you put that home in a lower cost of living area sure it could be 500,000 but not in the area the movie takes place
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Assuming they purchased that home in 1980 at 250k that would be valued just under 1 million today after inflation.
That house would easily be selling for 2 to 3 million now

At least mine had the decency to be in a dark pub hidden from the light
- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 2 weeks ago:
If you look at the history you can describe no food as German as the concept of a unified German state is very modern.
At best you could only describe foods regionally, but then that’s problematic because you are using terms that were applied after WW2 as many states were regrouped.
Where does it stop?

I accidentally ordered a wurstsalat once. I have opinions after that expirence

I’ll never forget my proffessor that just slammed monster and chain smoked cigarettes during fieldwork.
I only saw him drink water once. It was about 115 (Fahrenheit) and he took a single sip of water from a nalgene before putting it away.

Heavy drinking is considered irresponsible through your bachelor’s. After that it’s considered “networking” and “building professional relationships”. With the implicit usage as a coping mechanism

Telling someone to drink less beer and study more is wild.
Academics in general have a long history of being alcoholics or alcoholic adjacent

You’re absolutely correct. I make a policy of not being sad when bad things happen to bad people, but all this post shows is the absolutely terrible conditions of the US prison system.
This should never happen

I stared at this confused for a few seconds and then though to myself “of course it is”
- Comment on Accidental rapture 3 weeks ago:
Yeah sure, but when dealing with the alleged literal creator of the universe those things don’t really matter.
At what point could a God change all of that? I would imagine before Eve became a person those things were changed
- Comment on Accidental rapture 3 weeks ago:
I never got these points. If we assume there is the god that created the entire universe making these beings, then nothing to stop that God from adding the right chromosomes

At least in the southeast US, Hiltons are hit and miss. Holiday Inn Express is the most consistent in my expirence.

See you tell me it’s a joke then you keep making claims that aren’t entirely accurate. Idk what you want at this point

Unfortunately it’s hard to tell it’s a joke these days when my country is being an absolute shithole and doing these bad things.
You could have started by saying you meant it as a joke. Tone doesn’t translate to text

Okay cool you can say that as much as you want, but there are documented cases demonstrating that this effects everyone in the US or attempting to enter.
I even acknowledged already that POC are disproportionately affected in my last comment. Why are you trying to manufactured an argument?
- Comment on Karl Bushby: Made a bet in 1998 that he could walk from Chile to England. 27 Years later, Still walking. Survived Darién Gap, 57 days in a Russian prison, Traversing the Bering Strait on shifting ice 3 weeks ago:
The US is not a safe place for anyone especially POC.
That’s the accurate statement. Yes ICE/Border Patrol are disproportionately targeting POC, but they’re not stopping there.
- Comment on U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday 4 weeks ago:
I don’t do this for many things but i do use it sometimes
I’ve used care credit because a single emergency vet bill can be pricey and while I could empty my savings that’s not the best idea. So I just pay it off within the promotional period. Worse case scenario I am in a position to secure a traditional personal loan to completely pay off that balance at a more favorable interest rate.
I used a 0% intro rate for a European vacation once and it was great paying that off over a year.
That being said I wouldn’t finance groceries or Christmas shopping. That’s going a bit far
