I just checked back and that picture is gone from the article. It had a crowd of people with 4 or 5 if them holding up signs on what looked like printer paper with messages like “protect our students” but the signs and fonts looked unnaturally crisp, almost like a meme template
I don’t agree with his Bart-killing policy… but I do approve of his Selma-killing policy
Why does the picture in that article look so fake? Is it just the lighting? The signs look like a terrible photoshop
“We want tourists that come to enjoy the country and the culture, but not tourists who come for sex.” Hamat Bah, Gambia’s minister of culture and tourism, also stated in a television interview: “If you want a sex destination, you go to Thailand”; a statement for which he later had to apologize
Wild comment
I fully hear you and I liked talking about it. Your rant was the perfect spot for me to get out that same aggression and counter-rant.
And it’s important to put these unpopular opinions out there and fight it out. Sometimes I google “does anyone else hate this popular shit?” and it’s annoying when I can’t find other people with the same takes.
you’d have to tell all the people who believe the show WAS “a show about nothing” and think that’s AWESOME.
Who are these people? Show me. You’ve got an image in your mind of some blithering idiot who drools over the show strictly because “it’s a show about nothing” and that makes you mad. Can’t really argue with a strawman like that, but if you ever come across them rest assured they’re wrong in their premise and feel good about yourself
People like Seinfeld because it’s a light sitcom that can make a majority of them laugh at the situations it’s characters get into. Nothing more.
I’m not going to get into the whole rant, you think what you want, this is the place for that. But it wasn’t pitched as “a show about nothing”, that was an arc in the show but it’s not at all what the actual theme of the show is
In a Reddit AMA, Seinfeld revealed how he and David really pitched the sitcom to NBC. The actor noted, “The pitch for the show, the real pitch, when Larry and I went to NBC in 1988, was we want to show how a comedian gets his material. The show about nothing was just a joke in an episode many years later.” That’s exactly what the show is, and for the first seven seasons, every episode sees Jerry performing stand-up comedy, making jokes based on exactly what that particular episode is about

So don’t worry so much about the show being about nothing. It’s a sit-com.
I’m going to guess in most parts of the world heating water is a bigger expense vs getting clean water.
You could choose to feel guilty about wasting heat energy, or just enjoy it knowing the energy had already been spent heating the water for you to enjoy. But screw fresh water! Waste away! It’ll stay in the water cycle
I’ve noticed the same, and it’s horrifying when you think about the cost of all those ads and how it’s mostly funded by people with gambling problems
Oh, ok then
Think of it more like you’re meeting a new friend, you’re just hanging out and taking. Would it be a problem for someone to ask about your time in Mexico in a social setting?
Nah, school does count. I’ve given dozens of interviews, I usually don’t worry about having every month accounted for. School is fine, taking a few months and living off savings is fine too. If I’m going to have to work with this person I want someone cool, I’d respect someone taking time off for themselves.
6 months in Spanish school is a perfect explanation, a few years in Mexico though, you literally just glossed over years of your life. Are you younger and you were living with family? Were you running drugs for a cartel? The former is fine, the latter would be a red flag.
They just want to know what you’ve been up to, if you refuse to account for years of your life that’s weird, I don’t know why that’s such a problem
How do you define ‘corporate’ ownership? If you can own 100 properties as an individual, does that count as ‘corporate’?
It’s how you report the income. A corporation pays corporate tax rate on profit. An individual pays income tax. If someone wants to pay the individual income tax on 100 properties, that’s awesome. 33% over 250k. Corporate tax rate can easily be half of that.
Plus filing your taxes is waaaaaay easier having a corp hold all the assets and generating revenue, and the individual as an employee who draws a salary. If you’re just an individual with 100 properties and you get audited, you’re in for a bumpy ride trying to pick apart personal vs rental purchases
I’ve replaced a lot of my social media time with puzzles. When I have a minute to stop and look at my phone instead of reddit and Facebook I go through wordle, NYTimes crossword mini then Washington Post daily crossword. It usually takes about half an hour to get through those, I don’t really need to be looking at my phone idly for much longer than that in a day
The exchange of heat is proportional to the temperature difference. It will always take more energy to keep that gap wider between inside and out. The most energy efficient thing you can do is to deal with the outside temp as much as you can bear it and keep that inside/outside differential as low as possible
During the whole yo-yo craze, did you accidentally break the classroom’s fishtank with a yo-yo, landing you a month’s worth of detention? During a detention session where the teacher is not present, you rummaged through her desk for your yo-yo and discover personal ad written by the teacher, ultimately deciding to respond to it as a prank?
