My cats would roll in the residue of wherever they ended up popping, but they wouldn't play with the bubbles themselves.

Honestly I'm surprised they pay for flights for the lower guys. I was under the impression they didn't, except for some of the top guys. Hopefully one of these days someone gets the balls to fight the independent contractor status and puts WWE in a painful position financially. They'll owe a lot of back taxes to the…

This idea that you can't talk back to police is amazing. My father, obviously a white man, has so many tales of talking shit to them because of how often he would be stopped on the roads for being out at 3 AM (he would leave for work at that time). He would throw tantrums every time, full of "I pay your salary"…

Around here, there tend to be extremely frequent incidents of cars driving right into the front of buildings due to hitting the gas instead of the brake in the parking lot. Pretty much exclusively the elderly are responsible for these incidents. A lot of accidents where they hit pedestrians or manage to speed on to…

Yep, that's true. I'm not sure how the costs would shake down between travel costs (some of the top people have theirs paid for as part of their contract, others have learned how to maximize their savings) vs the cost UFC fighters need to pay out to their training camps. Like as a percentage of income, WWE travel…

One thing you can say about WWE at least is that they all have a downside guarantee now, and everyone, even the lowest paid women, is getting paid above poverty level salaries per year, plus some kind of cut of house shows, merch, and licensing (all recently reduced, plus the loss of PPV bonuses, but that's a…

This is going to be horrendous for fighters at the bottom of the card because it's not like this is even the WWE or something, they don't have any kind of downside guarantee. Guys at the bottom of the card are getting fuck all in pay. Getting their outside sponsorships, sometimes even for local businesses in their…

Figures. My brother is an Avalanche die-hard and always bitching about this asshole, and so the initial post made me think of Dater... and then I go to the comments, and welp.

Yeah, I could certainly see it running out quickly enough anyway. He's not an intelligent man.

Yes, it's unlikely that any of his givers would have to pay any taxes on the gift. The threshold is in the five figures, over $10,000. For the same reason no one is tax liable if their rich buddy gives them a few hundred or few thousand dollars for a gift, and not because the IRS would have trouble finding out about…

They'll just put up another donation page to pay for that too, and they'll get hundreds of thousands of more, because that's how passionate millions of Americans are about police brutality and the racist status quo.

It falls under the gift tax. Gift taxes are owed by the giver, not the receiver, over a certain threshold that pretty much no giver would meet.

He does not have to pay taxes on the donations. If he's getting paid for media appearances, sure.

Not how it works. It's considered a gift. In the United States, gift taxes, over a threshold, are owed by the person giving, not the person receiving.

Still Alice has huge Oscar buzz for Julianne Moore, but sure. After making $150 million at the worldwide box office, now that it's largely out of theatres, Sony wants to torpedo some of the money it could make on bluray/dvd sales and rentals by releasing it on torrent. Good call.

31 year old Canadian here (albeit one who has lived in the US for a few years), I've never heard of the Vanier Cup. Looks like Ottawa's only won once in my lifetime though, so maybe that's why.

and 3) being provided with the best steroids Hollywood actors can get.

Yeah, serious commitment aided heavily by steroids.

I don't know what a pet shamer is or why they're known to suck, but there are certain basic standards of life a pet should have, and being dragged around the country to do things that 99.9% of cats don't like doing is not meeting those standards.

Well maybe then it's just when they're sorting the eggs into different sizes (however that process works, I've no idea), the double yolk eggs are often going to be sorted into the extra-large/jumbo 'pile,' so to speak.
