I’ve been seriously considering picking up a trumpet and starting a ska band with some of my other middle aged friends just for shits and giggles. Seems like a lot of fun.
- Comment on I don't know what part of this headline depresses me the most: "52-year-old worked 90-hour weeks in an oil refinery to save money for his business—now he's worth $9.5 billion" 2 months ago:
Well, considering the character is said to have been based on William Randolph Hearst, you’re probably quite right to be concerned.

You’re thinking of American Samoa which is different from the Independent State of Samoa, formerly known as Western Samoa and a sovereign nation.

- Comment on Why Are So Many Americans Choosing to Not Have Children? It’s probably not selfishness, experts say. Even young adults who want children see an increasing number of obstacles. 4 months ago:
This is something I worry a great deal about for my kid.

- Comment on Anon meets his gf's parents 5 months ago:
To give you a slightly more serious answer, there’s a trope in America of the girl friend’s dad doing something to “subtly intimidate” the boy friend by casually cleaning a gun or having one within sight the first time they meet. The implication of course is supposed to be something along the lines of “I’ve got this and if you try anything funny with my daughter, I’ll use it on you”
It’s dumb but I’ve also known more than a few people who have experienced this first hand.

IIRC he even states a specific reason why he’s going with McDonald’s that has to do with known price and consistency.

I love Takis. One of my guilty pleasure trash snacks is a bag of Takis and a couple hazys.
- Comment on Capitalism indoctrination in progress. 1 year ago:
One of the best bosses I ever had once told me that people will stay for the culture but leave for money. His philosophy was to try and ensure that money was not a factor in people’s decision, then build as good a culture as he could.
And to be clear, by making money not a factor, I mean he paid well.
