That would take one guy driving from city to city in his Nissan Versa with some paperwork, yes.

Yeah.  Hard to dredge up sympathy for that when you’re driving an 11-year-old Chevy.

“We guarantee $400 over book!”

There’s a minor variation on that theme. The Chevy/Buick dealer near me is nice enough, but I cringe every time I go there. I have an independent shop who does most of my regular work, and only go to the dealer when it’s a internal, model specific thing they don’t do.

Point taken. Whatever you want to call it... that large Island that has been called ‘England’? 

Well, prove you know your orifice from an excavation.  Try saying something useful.  You must be a dem.

I’ve never figured this out, either.  Technically, Uber could be nothing more than a couple guys, a programmer, and a few servers.  All this ‘lost money’ could likely be going to offshore bank accounts and Ferraris.

That doesn’t hold water as a comparison, either.  California and Kentucky, for the most part, speak the same language, and are both part of the same Country using the same currency.  Now if Calif. used, say, grapes as currency, and Ken. used corn, then there would be all kinds of arguments about how much corn equals…

The funny thing is that the UK survived for a few thousand years without the EU.  One thing the Brexiters did have right was that they were contributing more than they were getting.  The EU is using the more solvent Countries to prop up the troubled ones.  The Euro does not translate evenly across the board.  Look at…

I understand that part, also. BB is like... Mecca for me. I gaze in hypnotised wonderment at the pretty colors on TVs I don’t even have wall-space for.  I’m drawn to games I know I will never play, cameras I would never have with me when I needed them, and then drag the Wife out of the appliance section.  All when we…

Look at List.

Look at List.

Actually, I think that falls under ‘disparity of force’. The legal term used when the aggressor is so much bigger than the victim. It is also the clause that allows a weak victim, like a woman, to use deadly force in self defence.

I thought company incentives like; “$21 an hour” was part of their complaint now.  Note the ‘while driving with a passenger’ thing that they’re so mad about.  You can promise any amount of money, but if the ride is only going 10 blocks in 5 minutes, that’s not much pay.  Do any of them get to actually drive for 8…

There’s a difference between aircraft that kill everyone inside of it and everyone outside of it... never mind.

Tell that to Yahoo Serious.*

I don’t mind that atol.

“I don’t like this Hiroshima Ale.”

Mildly offensive to a tiny percentage at best.  Why don’t we outlaw 2-piece bathing suits as well?  Huh?  What Atol were they named after?

In any organisation where the income of the management is dependant on the number of members, that is what’s going to happen.  Pretty much all unions do the same thing.  Some do a better job of policing themselves.

I’m a retired Marine, and I think those guys are idiots myself.
