From Ted Cruz, to Ben Roethlisberger, to Reese Witherspoon, to random rich guys: no matter what situation you could conceivably find yourself in, the phrase “do you know who I am?” will never endear you to a single person. It basically makes you the villain even if you somehow were in the right. Just stop before you…

This means I can just not pay bills that come months after my hospital stay and have it not affect my credit.

I’m sick of how they bill. I had to go to the ER twice last year for suspected heart attacks (wasn’t a heart attack either time) and for months I got bills from doctors not even in my city.

It should be law that…

I would be livid, because not only does my sleep get interrupted, I now have to deal with insurance companies who will most likely write it off, but now I have to find a replacement vehicle in this car market...

We tend to inaccurately think of hospitals as medical service providers, when in reality they’re much closer to landlords. If you have some minor organ failure, for instance, you’re just renting a room in a specialty apartment complex. You have to pay for that room.

And then 3 months later getting another $40 bill not for the orange itself or the cashier, but for the produce manager that had to review the orange’s paperwork.

Nobody understands how it works. That’s by design. Can’t successfully appeal something you don’t understand. Assuming you have the many hours it will take to go through the appeals process, which you probably don’t.

This is great and I hope it helps people gain access to cheaper credit. However, the fact that the cost of medical care in the US is expensive, punitive, and cruel remains largely unaddressed.

Good. Never understood how that billing works anyway. I always compared it to buying an orange in the grocery store, then 6 months later getting an additional bill for $20 in the mail because the cashier you “chose” (there was only one lane open) was out of network based on your bank’s policies.

Have you ever seen a photo of the WTC on fire? News is news and it’s not always pretty

Yeah the part where the car is clearly lined up and prepping to jump, with everyone standing there with their phones out and recording, makes the claim that this was “without warning” really really suspect.

“without any warning.”

lmao very LA for one of the random cars that was hit to be owned by a guy with a youtube channel

Article: notes fact that likely corrects many peoples’ initial assumption.
Commenter: OH THAT’S CLICKBAIT YOU JERKS

Yeah, i get what you’re saying, but I feel the same way when i’m driving my car. Considering the completely stupid things I see people all around me doing day in and day out. You really aren’t safe anytime you strap yourself into a metal box and fling yourself down a road or through the skies.

Have you considered that probably not everyone would like to see that horrific video and not put it on the front page or put some kind of warning? Are you guys that insensitive? We got spoiler warnings for stupid movies and we got shown over hundred people dying on a gadgets site’s front page? WTF

How could it be clickbait if it’s a stub at the end of the article? They already got your click if you read that part.

When the news broke it was literally the first question that popped into my head. I assume others were wondering the same thing.

Probably because many people, like me, assumed it was a Max plane and I was reading to find out if it was. Clarification, especially with so much recent Boeing controversy, was appreciated.

To make it clear that it was NOT one of those planes.
