At 65 out of 1254 miles, I think we’re a long way from half-fenced.

The Golden (Teapot) Dome

Aren’t we all?

Sorry for the stolen slop.

What the heck is the origin of this meme template? And am I the only one who thought this was Roger Stone?

Because the teacher is wrong and it’s an idiotic question.

The question asks the child to explain how Marty ate more pizza than Luis. “He didn’t” is not an appropriate answer to that question.

We know that Marty and Louis didn’t eat from the same pizza, because Marty ate 4/6 of a pizza and Luis ate 5/6 of a pizza. We also know that Marty did eat more, because it’s right there in the question.

The only logical answer is that Marty’s pizza is bigger, and so 4/6 of his pizza amounts to more pizza than 5/6 of Luis’s smaller pizza.

The question should have been “Marty ate 4/6 of a pizza and Luis ate 5/6 of a pizza. Explain who ate more pizza.”

That looks like my writing now, and I’m in my 30s.

Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me.

A banana in the hand is worth a bird in bush.

I thought I was losing my mind reading your comments.

I don’t think you meant it that way but it looks funny that you gave the average mid-westerner comment while also mentioning LA in response to San Jose.

Just for any actual avg midwesterners, San Jose is the same distance from LA as Chicago is from Cleveland. Or Indianapolis is from Pittsburg.

Carwashes are a decent choice of laundering business, but are also a business with remarkably low overhead. They are a popular choice of business for someone who wants to buy land and sit on it in a place they believe will become developed so they can sell it later. There is a large initial outlay for building the structure, but the actual machines and installation can cost less than buying a car. Upkeep is surprisingly simple and costs less than you probably think. The soaps and chemicals are dirt cheap and sold in 30-55gal quantities that last a month or more depending on traffic. The only real overhead if you aren’t getting customers is your mortgage and payroll, and you’d be paying a mortgage even if you just bought the land and did nothing with it. Not to mention touchless carwashes only require staff when there is a problem and any touch carwash can be run by a single person.

I don’t think they misunderstood the context. The user is saying that while the broader point she is making is correct, specifically saying we didn’t have to worry about grocery prices under Biden undermines the message.
