Didn’t have one for 15+ years and never really noticed. Inherited a little one that I now use to shorten cooking time on potatoes, and occasionally make oatmeal w/ milk (it’s just way, way easier than stovetop). That’s pretty much it. Sometimes I’ll have a craving for a bunch of $0.59 frozen burritos.

That is so dope. That is now something I have to do, since I know it’s kind of possible.

Uh. I mean. If you’re fixing a fight with a guy and basing your trust on whether or not he does illegal things, you’re kind of caught in a paradox, there.

MMA generally is safer than boxing, but both of these guys were crazy out of shape and no doctor should have cleared them for fighting. Everything about this fight stinks, I’m convinced it was a gambling setup that went sideways when dude basically had a heart attack in the octagon.

So, basically it seems like this fight was set up for the purpose of being fixed, but this guy actually maybe had a heart attack before Slice could take his dive?

Oh shut the fuck up. Brady gets fellated by the media constantly.

I like to think that nobody is this pathetic and stupid, but, really, most people are pretty fucking pathetic and stupid.

It’s not “taking a tough stance,” it’s “making the sentence actually legal.”

This isn’t 10cc.

Ugh, of course he would like the worst ABBA hit.

I didn’t need any reasons not to vote for him or like him, but this would do it if I did.

My brain knows that ice-cold, fresh from the store, vitamin-fucking-D milk poured into a tall, frosty glass is, in fact, vile and unnecessary, but my mouth and stomach have decided to die on this hill. There’s just nothing like it.

It’s a shame that I have had to remove SF from my list of possible where-next? living destinations. Not only can I not afford it, I would also be in jail for murdering so, so many people like this gaping anus.

You just implied there was, in any way, inelasticity for a toilet paper concierge. At what point of craven excess does inelasticity disappear for you?

Bed-Stuy every day and twice on Sundays. The UES is a bland, whitewashed shithole, as far as I’m concerned.

Your NYT link says exactly what I’ve been saying, except that the author buys into the bullshit manufactured shortage: extremely wealthy shitbags with no thought to (or with antipathy aforethought) pay exorbitant prices to other wealthy shitbags for NYC real estate, less-wealthy shitbags and various hangers-on then…

Hey look!

Also there is 0% chance it gets constructed on schedule or on budget.

“Those with resources to pay for it” should have some social conscience about the repercussions of their absurd money-wasting.

What explains housing being expensive in every city with demand and economic opportunities, then?
