I want to see the survey numbers regarding how they’re taught financial responsibility while dating. When I was in school, the boys blew a good chunk of their money on dating while the girls spent it at the mall.  I can see a parent justifying giving their son enough money to take his girlfriend out, but another…

wait. you’re upset you get to deduct more? thats weird.

Maybe I missed it, but I don’t think you actually addressed the specific example in the title. For instance, say it is a person’s turn in the rotation to order and they are looking down at their menu. What would you use there? Is “And what would like, you?”correct?  If so, shoot me now.

It was a real joy spending 2 hours putting all the itemized things on my return only to have the tax software tell me that it wasn’t as much as the new standard deduction. I know I should be happy about that, but it still leaves me feeling like all those things I paid for all year no longer have the year the year end…

Simple, it actually says that in the story

Counterpoint: She was largely tucked into an alcove on the back of a dragster and stared at a seemingly stationary object just a few feet away the entire time. She traveled on flat land in a straight line and didn’t have to be continuously aware of her changing surroundings. I’m not saying it wasn’t dangerous, but the…

Wut? The Ford has just as many “traditional drive dash gauges/display” elements as it always had. Do you see the stuff above the steering wheel? Do you see the stuff below the screen? The stuff that is absent on the Model 3? The ONLY similarity is a big square screen in the middle, which a lot of manufacturers have…

So now Tesla gets credit for the tacky “tablet glued to dash” look that tons of cars have had?

And if you have very few books, people will at least unconsciously assume that you don’t read a lot—unless you give them a reason to think otherwise.

This sounds vain. It is, a bit. But think about clothing. Beyond a few basics, most of our clothing choices are about what we signal to others, not our physical needs.

Nope. VW is just getting into the ‘Good BEV’ game now. Compromised BEVs on platforms meant for piston engines don’t really count.

The point is that you keep calling VW’s goals into question while seemingly forgetting about the fact that Musk has historically been the king of shifting timelines and unfilled promises. He’s long talked out the fabled $35k Model 3 but it’s nowhere to be seen. It’s as real as the pre-production VW car that you…

The fact that he never once checks for traffic while crossing two lanes of highway traffic tells you all you need to know about this guy’s competency.

These cars will hit the market years before Tesla achieves its supposed “$35,000" price point (if it ever does) which still places it in “luxury car” territory. If you don’t think Tesla should be worried about one of the world’s largest automotive groups mass producing cars in the price range of a normal middle class…

I don’t think that applies with a car loan because it isn’t a “line of credit” in the sense that you can charge back what you’ve paid off, it’s an installment loan. With auto loans, it has more do with with having a a good credit mix, with installment loans being one of them. Suddenly not having that type of loan on…

I’m guessing it’s less about not wanting to “see those guys” and more about the financial riskiness of them. One can possibly assume that people that can’t take care of their cars are also most likely to miss rent. Or maybe, people who don’t take care of their cars are also less likely to take care of their home (your…

Last airport bathroom I was in didn’t even have urinal partitions. What kind of savagery is that? I mean, you can’t just blankly stare ahead because you have to keep one eye on your suitcase, so it’s a lose/lose situation.

Stop with the Vitamin C, it does nothing.  That little anecdote ruins any credibility you may have had for this story.

By being capacitive it’s also more prone to erroneous touches and can’t be operated while wearing gloves.

Why do the touch screens still suck?
