You’re upset with Amazon because Washington doesn’t tax it’s earnings or its executives’ incomes? Seems like your issue is with your legislature/voting public, no?

But it turns out you aren’t?

Meshuga?

First, you are right - an agreement not to seek medical care (which is how I’d frame this if I were challenging it), would likely not be enforceable as void against public policy in the US (and probably elsewhere, I imagine).

What was that (I believe Nickelodeon) video game-themed game show from the mid ‘90s where the leading contestant got to “be in a video game” for the final challenge? And the video game they got inserted into basically seemed to involve a green screen and basic motion controls?

Thhhhhhinnnnnneeeerrrr

How is that only partially correct? What is your source on your claim about the definition? Everything I see on some cursory Googling is fairly clear that “sushi” is a reference to the rice, and includes preparations that use rice and veggies, or rice and egg (i.e., without fish). (Accordingly, sashimi is not…

This is only semi-related, but I find the name of the chain “Souplantation” to be in bad taste on similar reasoning as well. Like - I get “plantation” is a broad term that is has applications completely unrelated to slavery, but in the American mind, the connection between slavery and “plantations” is direct and…

“National origin” presumably is a protected class, though, which is what the cultural-discrimination argument amounts to. (To be clear, I think his case is borderline frivolous, but not because he failed to allege discrimination based on a protected class.)

The latter.

Definitely keep doubling-down. You’re really showing everybody. And you don’t look like a petulant child leading a sad, inconsequential existence at all.

I think there’s a mistake in your description of the lower court’s holding. You said the court found the use protected by first amendment but that de haviland was *unlikely* to prevail and so the suit was going to be allowed to go forward (until the appellate court intervened).

One is flavor type.

Nah - it’s the vinegar rice that makes it “sushi,” not the raw fish.

You can claim whatever you want. We all just saw what happened.

The second question is easier: That the target company is going to assume the debt is known from the start to the bank. It’s part of the deal - I show them my numbers, and they make a decision as to whether they agree that company on that model can service that debt. And they price accordingly.

They don’t. They have to pay money to the lender that gave the buyer the money that was used to buy up the stock necessary to get control.

Don’t worry - it will even out when they have to explain President Paul to you

I did take a little pleasure about seeing him describe that in a video, on the internet, taken with a hidden camera, with the undercover source’s face blurred out. Had a real “taste of your own medicine” vibe.

Yeah I think you’re maybe giving him a bit too much credit there.
