So you think the government in the United States of America is so afraid of its constituents that they are not raising the taxes.

What about all the other countries in the world that have less or similar taxes like the states but no 2. amendment? Are they completely reliant on sending strongly worded letters to the newspapers? Or do you think in a functional democracy there might be other ways for constituents to wield power?

Do you think you have less taxation because of your 2. amendment?

The correct response is “suck it and see”

Det er bedre å stole på tissen enn å tisse på stolen!

I don’t think I’ve ever seen this brand in Norway… Hennig Olsen and Diplom is have the market cornered for “ice cream on a stick”.

Have we tried eating hippos? They seem like something that could be similar to pigs…😅

IKEA furniture are not bad at all. 40 years ago or was a standing joke, but the quality has quintupled since then.

You can of course buy the cheapest of cheap in IKEA and it will be less comfortable than the more expensive ones, but couches from IKEA are good.

Hell, most other furniture brands delivers their furniture flat packed as well. It’s just easier to build IKEA since they have gotten the instructions down to a t.

When I saw the story about furniture doctor here the other day it just seemed so dumb. Buy flat packed furniture sand assemble it on your living room. Or get the furniture doctor to assemble it, then you don’t have to cut it open with power tools…

In short - IKEA and Wasa ftw!!

This is probably not in the same categories as other experiences, buuuut the Guinness museum in Dublin the evening before st Patrick’s day was quite fun!

There’s a large bar at the top/end of the museum and a band was playing and 100 or so people ended up in a conga line.

I think I had 4 tasty Guinness during the museum tour sand countless at the museum bar😅

Well… It used to be called “going postal” because of the frequent mass shootings in postal offices by postal workers…

Why that changed I can’t tell you.

On a slightly funny(?) note, postal the game was created where you are in fact going postal. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postal_(video_game)

Apparently there is a plot line that is not about shooting postal workers, so who knows.

Early termination fees are not that horrible. They can give you a monthly cost where some of the costs for installing it might be distributed over they contact period. Fine and ok

But i should still be able to cancel my contract without jumping through 11 loops and queues.

If you sign up for a given contract, that’s what you have agreed upon. It sucks if you only have one option and they can set a ridiculous price. So if you want to regulate pricing, that’s a different matter. Cancelling is something else altogether.

The more you walk or run, the more breaths you make. What’s your pulse/breath while walking? What about “any other form of activity” that could introduce sweat? Skimming, cycling, skiing, fucking… hell even hopping wood and lifting weights make you breathe faster if you strain yourself.

I’ll be take breaths

Well… How do you define what a group of ppl look like? Are all Japanese of the same descent? Can an immigrant not become Japanese? How would this play out in the US? Only native Americans could represent the country? Or are you inferring that a given number of years must pass before a new skin tone can represent a country?

Right. So it’s a Schroedinger’s quote…😑

But thanks for pointing out what was obvious for others

The fuck? Where is your limit then to purchase power Vs donating to those less fortunate?

I mean, if 40k USD is your limit, what about housing? Boat? Would it be ok to have ten 4k cars? Two 30k cars?

Can you rationalize drinking that imported beer last weekend when you could have given those 15 bucks to a homeless guy on the street?

I mean, arbitrary set a value point for a car as excessive creates more problem for you and your ideal then not having that limit. At least the Buddhist monks who give away all their worldy goods to focus on meditation are consistent.

This is the quote:

“I don’t see any scenario where they’re responsible for less than 10% of the value destruction, so around $4 billion.”

In my head, he is comparing the minimum size of ADLs value reduction to be 10% or 4 billion. 10% of 44 billion is 4,4 billion. In this comment he is not saying anything about the current value except that 10% of 44 is around 4.

How else can you read it?

No more than us eurotrash talking smack about Americans in general. You know, has no passport and believes the drinking age of 21 is universal etc etc.

But by all means - let the smackwar begin! Eurotrash vs Americunts!

Same same but very different.

Sort of resident evil 1 camera points, so a bit confusing to move around. But you wake up somewhere with body parts replaced and no memory of anything and you piece it together. Not no FPS.

I loved it and emailed the publishers for a sequel. They confirmed that it was not going to happen😅. I think this was in 1998 or something like that. I got it and played through it in 3 days straight. Loved it.

I didn’t play SS1 and fully enjoyed SS2.

Btw, Bioforge is also amasing!
