The corporations have trained us to escalate situations. If we don’t get the answer we want, the first thing we say is “get me a supervisor.” If the supervisor doesn’t give us our way, then we get loud and cause a scene.

There’s a ceiling on oil given all the wells we have ready to do in North Dakota and elsewhere in the US. Oil in the $60-70 range is probably the sweet spot for oil producers and for automakers as well. Just high enough to make money on and to get car buyers to pay attention to fuel economy.

I am going to assume that they asked him first. Think about it - every conversation is being filmed, so Zeke telling Varner that he was trans had already been filmed at some point prior to the tribal council. On the other hand if he had said no, would they have had to restage and script a phony tribal council in it’s…

That’s the other thing. Uber has to be competitive in the rideshare space. Perhaps the taxi companies need to be seeking relief from their restrictive regulations

So the complainant bought a taxi medallion as an investment to lease out, and now it’s not working out so it’s Uber’s fault?

Those caves have been there for decades. I wonder why we haven’t used this bomb before.

Now Toyota will take 5 years to redesign it 3 times, add a bunch of overly complicated offroad tech, and raise the price $5k to overshoot it’s target market.

This seems a little different than squatters rights for a whole house. With a whole house your possessions occupy the house when you are physically not there, and typically you put the utilities in your name. A parking space is only physically occupied when you are actually parked there, which is not continuously…

The value of the attack is not that it disables an airfield, but that it signals a more hands on approach by Trump in the Middle East. This seems to happen with new Presidents - they talk of staying out of things not he campaign trail, then reality sinks in and they are forced to engage.

How is she to be banned for life when she admits she was using her boyfriend’s account? Did the boyfriend get banned? She is still riding Uber with other people’s accounts.

NONE OF THE ABOVE. You just got the golden ticket to life. Invest that money into something of value, not a depreciating asset that you’ll likely get tired of in a couple years (highly likely with a large sum of money in the bank).

Yes, but we can’t compare the 201hp Elantra Sport to a 252hp Focus ST, can we now? Especially since the Focus ST can be had with gigantic discounts and would end up about the same price as this Elantra.

Your close. Government workers are pretty much the only ones left that have that schedule, besides secretaries.

Believe it or not, Ellen does that on a regular basis

Yes. What about all the men Ellen brings on just to have them take their shirts off. I guess it’s ok if a lesbian does it

Patrick George has it right. The bottom line is that cars serve a utilitarian purpose. Your single life car is more about your image and should be helping you attract a mate. Once you have your mate, and the kids start rolling in, utility demands a more spacious vehicle. People try to fudge it with crossovers, but…

The poor credit culture is expanding, as the population of people with either no financial savvy or just the lack of desire to pay bills first and play after grows. There is a lack of short term thinking in so many people’s financial habits, it is shocking. Financial literacy needs to be taught in school.

I am too. This final design isn’t that great. I’d love to see the rejected design.

The biggest mistake that many people make is to have fun first, then pay the bills. They go out to eat, buy nice clothes, go on vacation, then go “I don’t have money for the cable bill!”

Everything about the Transformers movies is ridiculous.
