The very real problem is that they have been able to spread malignantly for so long is that there are enough mutually reinforcing outlets out there that lead them to wholeheartedly believe that you, in fact, are the one with the uninformed opinion that requires no consideration.

Right? Why should we trust the word of a hardened criminal? I rolled through a stopsign a few years back and no one has believed anything I've said since.

I worked a summer in a Mech Contractor fab shop. Holy shit I could not believe how many people in there somehow still had both hands. The foreman showed up to work every day with a permanent look of exasperation.

I was aware of the meme but never actually watched it until earlier this year. Just sat there for a whole ten minutes with a wtf look on my face.

I remember hearing Through the Wire for the first time stoned as shit on my shady dealer's couch. Then I had to listen to a group of bamas play the instrumental ten times in a row while they spit wack as fuck freestyles.

Good times.

I just wanted to chime in that there are many therapists that are willing to negotiate a non-insured rate. After it felt like I'd exhausted my options looking for someone that took my insurance I managed to find someone who would see me for only about ~$20 more than what my copay would've been. She gets less, but says it's worth it not to have to deal with insurance on her end. If I were looking now, I'd first try to approach therapists who see patients in their own private offices at home. I feel like less overhead allows them more flexibility to be able to do this.

Honestly if I'm wearing a white shirt and we're having spaghetti at home I'll change into a dark shirt. There's always some little speck that gets on and stains the shirt and I'm tired of dealing with em. It never even occurred to me that people would eat without a shirt.

But if I don't do these challenges, how else will people know that I'm better than them?

There's a type of tick that gives you an allergic reaction to red meat. It's worse than you think though because it's the only known food allergy that causes anaphylaxis several hours after exposure. To confirm, that means that yes, you can get bitten by a tick, eat a burger 3 months later, and then die four hours after that when your throat closes up and you can't get to a hospital because you're in Mississippi ffs.

That's when that saved money goes to private schools.

My old boss did that, lived in WV and commuted all the way into Bethesda every day. He spent DC money on WV land, so he lived well. His commute was long, but he shifted his schedule off-peak, spent the extra money on a very comfortable car, and genuinely appreciated having long and quiet car rides to himself every day.

if Civil War battlefields isn't your thing, I could see it not being a big draw.

I have a hunch that the focus at those sites isn't what it should be.

Me either, but I somehow guessed correctly the parentheses and brackets on the first try so I guess what I'm saying is I'm pretty much a hero and I'll be waiting at the baggage claim through next week to take photos.
