People should just mostly drink water. Seriously. Just drink water.

O, don’t worry, you can pay for my dinner ;)

Yea. I’ve told guys “thanks for a good time the other night, but I don’t want to go out again” and they’ll just keep harassing you until you block their number... Often, the only way to get a guy to leave you alone is to make him hate you (but not too much because then they might retaliate).

Make your own at home. Cornstarch, water, salt, and pepper makes for an excellent batter for fried chicken (also onion rings).

That argument is shit, turning large swaths of our population into wage slaves isn’t the solution to the fundamental issues of fiat money and an economy based on constant growth rather than on sustainability.

Good trick if the dishwasher doesn’t take out the coffee stains, throw some ice and salt in there and swish it around real good.

That’s your problem, you should be using whisky.

Meh, coffee is good black, but a little bit of creamer changes the consistency, makes it just a tad more rich. I feel like the only wrong way to drink coffee is when it’s been diluted so badly it’s just warm milk and sugar.

People... people do that? What?

I just put my creamer in before I pour the coffee and it stirs itself.

Inflation happens either way, more Americans in poverty isn’t the answer to that issue.

Yeaaaa..... split the bill up front if you’re not comfortable paying for someone’s meal without a guarantee of getting laid...

Welfare is based on income/need, so it would move people off welfare (or at the very least reduce what they are receiving). Also, “artificially high”? What does that even mean? We decided as a nation a long time ago that someone should be able to survive on a 40 hour workweek, keeping up with that is not creating…

So, would you rather McDonald’s customers pay for their employees cost of living, or would you rather your tax dollars pay to keep them fed/off the street via welfare? Because I DON’T have to go to McDonalds, but I DO have to pay my taxes. Or would you prefer a nation of starving children and shanty villages?

They’d probably blame all their problems on us still and be waging war with the US within a few years. Kill the infidels and god will reward you sort of nonsense. That, and swarms of refugees coming in.

Considering Dolly Parton’s Dixie Stampede represents the civil war as a “friendly rivalry between the north and the south”, I think you may overestimate her thoughts on the subject.

I guess they really love their participation trophies.

True, but that doesn’t mean schools/hospitals are obligated to provide them. Just saying, if a place is that against people eating a candy bar, why not remove them from the machine rather than half assing it?

It’s bad enough that I’m positive my phone is always listening. Google always knows WTF we’re about to search, no matter how random.

If it’s not, you could make some interesting arguments for not having to pay.
