Artificial scarcity also drives up prices.

fwiw, you don't have to join the union to make good money in the trades.

Schools shouldn't be pushing anything. Give people the opportunity to make their own choices. I went to college, decided I wasn't comfortable with the amount of money it costs since I still wasn't 100% sure what I wanted to do. Drove a semi for a couple years to save up cash before going back for HVAC. I couldn't be happier. Currently making about 90k a year in a rural area where the average houshold income is about half of that, and I can comfortably get a job anywhere in the country. Working a blue collar job that is "below" so many people is going to allow me to retire with a lake house by the time I'm 50 assuming everything continues according to plan.

all 4 of mine were taken out at the same time. I woke up from the drugs already in the passenger side of the car while at a wendys drive thru and had the bloodiest, nastiest frosty of my life.

I used Bing to figure out what to do when my step sister is stuck. Apparently I should have used google.

I highly dislike them. They ride their buggies on 55mph roads after dark and are frequently a hazard when you crest a hill to see a slow moving black object in your lane. Their horses leave shit in the road which is also a road hazard for motorcyclists. Theyre frequently hypocrites who will gladly ask to borrow your 4x4 or other technology whenever its convenient for them. They play dumb and use their perceived ignorance as an excuse to their advantage quite often.

And Im only going off of my own personal experiences, so thats not to mention the numerous problems within their community.

All fun and games until Miami realizes they're still dead last in MLS.....still good for the league though. Cool to watch him play.

Radiant heat from the sun all day long, every electrical appliance in the building, your body heat, etc. Not enough air flow.

The same mountain bike I've had since I was 12 or 13.

Early/mid 2000's Gary fisher Marlin. Not too bad when a $400 bike can hold up for nearly 20 years. Not my photo but its the exact same bike, paint and all.

I have flown in two of them. As long as they're put together by someone knowledgeable and get properly inspected, they're perfectly safe.

My dad was an aircraft mechanic so he knew multiple private pilots and people involved in aviation to varying degrees. When I was younger I wanted to be a pilot so I was always offering to detail their planes or do whatever little side work if they'd take me up and let me fly a bit. I never ended up getting my license but I got to go up in all sorts of little planes here and there throughout my teenage years.

Unfortunately, there is a good chance the rabbit still died of a heart attack after it was released. They have a really high resting heart rate anyways, and are easily scared to death.

$52/month for my car
$14/month on my motorcycle

Both are older vehicles, I have a clean driving record and I'm in my 30's.

Too many people are picking Florida. Clearly Vegas is going to break everyones expectations.

But I voted kitty cats in 4 because Bobrovsky gets 4 straight shutouts in my ideal world.

one of my earliest memories is pouring salt on slugs....it has nothing to do with toads but I thought it was worth sharing. It's right up ther with thinking my cat gave birth to hampsters, and being so scared of being left alone that I ran through a glass door and had to have glass shards picked out of my eye lids with tweezers. I only have a handful of core memories before 5yrs old and these are right up there.

When I was in highschool I forgot to lock the passenger door so someone went through the my car and stole the head unit and rummaged through my glove box. But never notice any door dings or damage. For a town with a very low crime rate, that one incident taught me to make sure all my doors are locked even in a relatively safe area. In the grand scheme of things, the head unit was not worth shit, but super annoying to not have a functioning radio for a few weeks.

Never tried it, but in general I don't like chunks of things when I'm drinking so I doubt I'd enjoy it if I'm understanding what it is properly. I'm not a picky eater so I so I don't mind odd flavors, but texture makes a world of difference.

I was today years old when I found out you can order transition contact that act as sunglasses...I immediately ordered a box.

Fuck your anus eyes. I want the shade.

I ran a natural gas line to my grill years ago and changed the orifices in it. I legit make bratwurst, burger, or grilled chicken at least once every other week year round ever since. Love sitting out on the porch this time of the year near sunset enjoying a beer and watching the dog run around with the smell of cooking meat on the grill.

If I have a 3 day weekend, I go out of state to visit my parents. Usually I take a vacation day and make it a 4 day weekend as long as we're not backed up and super busy.

Did they give you pain killers? I swear I'm slightly allergic. After my back surgery, I was itching my face so much I scratched a couple spots so bad they scabbed over and I looked like a meth addict.

really? what yr was the swift concert?

Google says 2007. I honestly thought it was earlier than that. She already had an album out by then.

Taylor swift came to my super tiny town for our 4th of july festival before she was famous so that's cool in hindsight.

Also went to X-fest in Dayton when they had a bunch of big rock bands. That's literally the only concert I've ever been to.

The league realized that winning teams get more fans so the expansion draft rules were much more favorable than in the past. That's not to take away from what they've done, but it obviously helps.

Every guy on my dad's side of the family has died by 72 from heart disease, even though at least a few appeared to live very healthy active lifestyles....but my mom's side mostly lives past 90 despite many smokers and alcoholics. So I really don't know. I do know that as my dad is turning 60 soon, I'm much more cognizant of myself wanting to spend as much time with him as I can.

The core fundamentals I guess. But I learned more in the first 2 months on the job than in my whole time at school.

I've been on a little horror movie kick and almost rewatched it today. Decided to find something I haven't seen yet instead.

Also watched the autopsy of jane doe last night. Has a nice creepy feeling when watching it at 2am in a house all by yourself with the lights turned off.

At least its pretty to drive through. Thats better than Alabama or Mississippi.

board up/chicken wire the spot where they stay when they're not there and put up a bat house on a nearby tree.

Are CE's bodies beach ready?!

Fuck no. I'm damn near the fattest I've ever been in my life.

Still gonna go wakeboarding/skiing and then sit self consciously on the boat hoping nobody notices my magnificent man boobs.

The durango is a gas hog but I have a work vehicle that I drive daily so it's not a big deal, plus it works as a tow vehicle which I needed. It helps that it was meticulously well maintained so it looks and runs like new despite being 22 years old and just over 100k miles. I'd still like a better handling little car in the near future.

at $21 you know a number of her male students were subscribed to her OF account...

Giving statistics by number is useless. LA County and NYC have the most unhoused people by far because they have the most people by far, far and away.

True but 7 of the top 10 largest metro areas in the US are not on that list so....

Only one or two actual meals per week. Otherwise it's a lot of frozen food in the oven, sandwiches, or leftovers.

Typically when I do cook, I make family sized portions so they last me a good chunk of the week anyways.

Cheap ones aren't worth it. They're either overly sensitive and you'll get false hits so often from automatic doors, vehicles with adaptive cruise control, etc that you'll eventually tune it out and stop slowing down. Or, it wont be sensitive enough to pick up when they hit cars ahead of you and instead only goes off when they're already looking at you.

Quality ones are a few hundred dollars and work pretty well. But so few places still use radar that it's no guarantee. If they're shooting laser (which most police departments are nowadays) you're borderline too late by the time it goes off. You might be able to hit the brakes before they get a solid lock but you honestly have to have quick reflexes and they'll still lock in a number, just slightly lower than what you were doing before you hit the brakes. I find that using waze and just going with the speed of traffic +5mph is good enough 99% of the time.

I stopped running detectors nearly 10 years ago. With lazer, it's not worth the money for a good one when I only get a ticket once every half a dozen years anyways.

Doesn't take much googling to show why the US voted no. That other countries did not follow through anyways. And that the US already donates more food to developing nations than all of Europe combined and more than any other single country by a very large margin.

I just want a setting to tell them I don't want to be recommended shorts, and I don't want to see shorts in my subscription page. I just want to watch their regular length videos.

I wanted Valenwood but that's obviously not happening. At this point I'll just be happy to get a new TES game before I have grandkids.

If you live in a building more than a couple of stories tall, you probably have piss bottles hidden in your walls.

You want to know a secret?

Cattle yards generally count any all black cow as angus. They're not checking for a specific breed.

Only about 4 pounds shy of the heaviest I've ever been (more than 5 years ago). One difference is that I'm definitely stronger than I was back then so I actually don't look or feel as bad. Still need to lose about 20-25lbs though. Currently 5'10" 195lbs, would like to be in the low 170's. 200 is always my "oh shit" number.
