That being said it’s obvious why they thought Arthur would sell. It’s basically original Game of Thrones.

Really? It seems like in Chicago at least most people have a generally positive opinion of Duckworth. Also, last time I saw the figure floating around her unfavorable rating in the state was <25%.

That valuation means it was essentially a break-even business. The fair value of a business can generally be estimated as the sum of expected future cash flows from the business, discounted by some metric of risk. Cash flows are basically income after all business expenses (including wages and salaries), taxes, net…

I think it probably depends on the ratio of juice-to-water you’re using? Juice with some water splashed in to tone it down is a whole different thing from water with some juice added for flavor.

You can blame the Germans for the beer + juice idea.

I am curious as well what their source is as well. I know that blended fruits/vegetables generally retain less nutrition than you would get from eating the same amount of raw fruits/vegetables,** but I don’t think I’ve read anything to suggest it’s at all on par with juice.

“Mozzarella boyfriend” is slaying me! That’s such a top shelf burn, you can’t even get mad at it.

They said it’s pizza, beer & Camry money if you’re being smart with it. At that salary, assuming he has no student loans, he should be maxing out his 401k. Add in health insurance and that probably takes at least $20k off before taxes. He is probably pulling in around $4k/month after taxes, which is definitely a…

Idk who let him think hosting foreign leaders at Mar a Lago was a good idea to begin with, but once he took Abe down there, he put himself in the corner with Jinping. The Chinese leadership would not have reacted positively to a reception that could be perceived as less than what the Japanese received.

Not saying that’s better, but isn’t it ethnocentric in and of itself, to think that’s it’s to copy westerners?

Yes, agreed some people are gonna suck no matter what. But sometimes people that are not otherwise assholes become accidental assholes when traveling through lack of basic research. I don’t expect most people outside of Ireland and the UK to know where the term “black and tan” comes from. The majority of American…

They want tourists to have some cultural awareness/sensitivity of the countries they plan to visit. The internet exists and there are literally thousands of free travel guides on it, shit’s not that difficult. You know how many dumb ass Americans I’ve seen try to order an “Irish car bomb” or a “black and tan” in pubs…

To be honest, I just lied the one time a recruiter asked me that question. Not outrageously, though. I selected a number that was $10k below what I wanted in order to leave the position. Lo and behold my offer for that new position was ~$10k above the fake salary ($17k jump from the real salary).

Where you see fear, I see the look of suppressed rage on my mother’s face every time I embarrassed her in front of strangers. Anyway the internet already has our answer- that is his wife (pic).

Me too! The comments on that site were worse than any other local Chicago newsblog. Who are these people?

If you actually have naturally curly (not wavy) hair you can do a twist out, regardless of whether your hair is kinky or not. But it’s not some magic technique- it’s not going to magically make your hair more voluminous or more textured if it isn’t already. It’s just a way to make your pre-existing curls more defined…

Hey, you’re not that much of a philistine, Mad Max got a number of Oscar noms! I’m still mad Seale didn’t win for it’s cinematography.

Which is fine to me because that’s just kids liking what kids are supposed to like.

Grindr is already on it, obviously.
