I’ll freely admit to not being an expert on leasing. I worked in consumer financing for a financial institution, but where I was located leases weren’t available to our local customers, so I’m way less experienced there. As you indicated though, my larger point was that sanctimonious finger wagging about owing money…

Sure, but if you don’t live in an area where driving is unnecessary, and you want reliable, safe transportation, you either have to buy a car (not necessarily a new one, but likely one that requires significant cash outlay to buy outright) in which case you’re almost certainly better off financing it unless you have…

Honestly Patrick I don’t know that you, or the article, make anything resembling a point, much less a good one. If the problem with taking out a loan to buy a car is that you end up paying monthly on an asset that depreciates, leasing a car is way worse because you don’t end up with an asset at all unless you buy out…

Wait, like, NBA player Baron Davis? When did that shit happen?

People aren’t talking about her because she isn’t expected to do well. If she were a world-class skier she would have qualified in Austria, the country in which she resides, where the infrastructure of the sport is much more advanced than in Kenya.

Exactly the kind of argument one might expect from a disingenuous fucking dipshit. You are indistinguishable from a chatbot, you possess a bare faculty for language without any evident appreciation of it’s meaning. One wonders if a lobotomy is necessary to achieve such profound ignorance of concepts that most small…

Yes, penny dreadfuls and the talkies have ruined this generation. Why, in my day...

Given how incredibly exploitative college athletics is in America, I for one do not hope that schools get big into esports.

See, I actually came to the opposite conclusion. To a degree, Bayek is a blunt instrument, being wielded by Cleopatra to murder the Order, but he’s also aware of and disgusted by that. He is suspicious of Cleopatra and her motives long before Aya finally comes around. Aya leaves her husband and their shared quest for…

Carpet sucks. Floors should be wood or tile. Area rugs forever!

That fucking sucks out loud. Hopefully shit went haywire in your absence, but karma seems to be on vacation for most of corporate America.

Fucking Fixer Upper drives me nuts. My parents watch a lot of HGTV and I often end up catching portions when I visit. I watched Joanna Gaines deliver a design she called “Mediterranean Modern” that included fieldstone applique on a brick fireplace, a metal roof, and a teak shower floor. Yup, nothing says Mediterranean…

I’m betting that the standards are based primarily on base salaries. Performance related bonuses and raises are likely allowed, but I’m betting if you get audited and can’t justify those decisions adequately you’ll get fined.

Warlocks have the worst jump. It’s such genuine garbage.

If their interpretation of Lovecraft is that true evil comes only from outside our own universe they haven’t read much of his work. Which is consistently racist, either obviously so or subtextually. To use the The Dunwich Horror as an example, the titular horror is born from an unholy union between an evil creature…

What nation’s unions would you consider a model?

Except Uber encouraged some drivers to finance vehicles in order to use them to drive for Uber. And none of these services could survive if they only had part-time drivers, they depend on drivers who make themselves available to the service for hours a day, but don’t want to provide those people with the wage or…

It’s actually only 6, the 1 in undecided makes it look like 16

In news I’m sure will surprise no one, Albert Breer over at SI has already dropped a very stupid take about how Reid and Thomas are “looking backward” and that their primary motivations were to attempt to force the NFL to give Kaepernick a job.

No, no, you flighty womenfolk are always mis-medicating your wandering wombs. It’s laudanum you need, m’dear.
