Give them a tolled phone sex hotline number as the new number for “Dee and Donny”

I would say it’s a valid complaint. Star Wars is, at it’s heart, a fantasy fairy tale wearing a science fiction costume. The heroes needed their happily-ever-after. That’s effectively how RotJ ended: the villains are dead, the deceased are at peace, balance is restored, and now our heroes can chase a life of normalcy.

It’s definitely not the same, but we don’t really have a solid comparison. Technically, for a trailer, the tow vehicle is fighting the sum of various sources of friction, but let’s just figure most of it is in the Wheel Bearing. With the towing situation, you’re adding in the friction of the tires and once those tires…

But they wouldn’t be so popular if they weren’t great earbuds.

This is a good “Friday Story”

I thought “hacked” meant someone got wasted and drunkenly posted on the internet, blaming everything on this alleged hacker the next morning.

Inflation might not be the bogeyman everyone believes it is – especially in light of rising student loan debt. While wages do lag behind, inflation effectively offsets lending interest rates, making it easier for consumers with fixed rate loans to payoff their debt. 

For 1), I’m staying the course. Odds are if I switch to cash I’ll get out too early and also get back in too late. My retirement timeline is still 20+ years away (even looking optimistically) so as long as an upcoming downturn isn’t a generation-long collapse of our economic system I’ll just keep methodically…

There are 327 million Americans. Up to 10 million Americans per year are subject to domestic violence. (3%) . It’s not surprising that several football players commit this type of crime every year. Its disheartening that people only talk about it when someone famous or “scary” like a big bad athlete does it.  Wake up…

And like that, the laughs of a million Steelers fans were suddenly silenced.

..they appeared to have key differences in brain regions linked to coordination, eye movement, and spatial navigation—everything you’d need to be a good tracker.

That’s why he said “default to” which IS sound advice. If you’re not an educated investor, or working with a financial advisor, then yes - paying off debt is almost always the correct default.

The “nK” battle is a scam designed(eventually) to get consumers to constantly upgrade their televisions. The major jumps in tech were mostly B&W to colour, then HD and 4K, not counting the tech behind the screens such as screen size/plasma/OLED that would improve the quality of the image. As you can see the timeframes…

From the article:

shouldn’t cash on hand be in your emergency kit already?

Pro tip: Discover cardholders can get free cash back at any Walmart for no extra fee, and it’s not a cash advance. I believe Dollar General does this, as well, and they have like 3,000 locations just about everywhere. Go buy a flat of water and walk out with $80+ cash (depending on store max).

Suzy Ormond got famous just for standing on a stage and saying “pay off your credit cards!” over and over again and people still don’t get it.

Sure, but as a practical matter, those fees are going to be there no matter how you pay - Best Buy or Macy’s or whatever has already assumed they’re paying X% to the credit card company and have worked that into their price.

This. My credit card companies are paying me to use their services.

Men often find this line hard to locate, I think, because they don’t feel the effects of the gender dynamics. It’s invisible to them because they walk around in a world where men’s experience is the default. But mansplaining isn’t that hard to discern if you’re a woman. It usually has something to do with overstepping…
