I think aiming back/down towards the spinal chord/medulla oblongata, not up, would be more effective in guaranteeing death. That said, suffocating on an inert gas would likely be less painful as you’d pass out after only a few seconds and then die within minutes. Don’t ask me how I know.
Real or not, many likely echo a similar sentiment of frustration. Much to think about.
Calm down, Emily Gilmore.
Just stop eating at McDonalds in general. There are equally as pricey but healthier and tastier burger joints out there (or both). Check out your local restaurants; they’re likely on par in price.
Eating garbage food will also make you feel bad, no matter your age.
I used to eat junk food a lot in undergrad, and since I developed a tolerance/got used to feeling shitty I didn’t realize how much it impacted me day-to-day. Once I started grad school I shifted to healthier eating (real, unprocessed food), and quickly noticed how much better I felt, how much more energy I had. Now if I eat fast food (rarely) I always feel like crap right after the meal.
Any idea which pub this is? Next time I visit family there I’d love to go.
Sounds like a game of Dungeons and White Dudes.
You don’t frighten us, English pig-dogs! Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person!
I think for some it’s a mix of patriotism and having poor taste in decor. I know people who also have American flag swim shorts, sunglasses, etc. Also, it’s not exclusive to America. My British side of the family (especially the ones who’ve met the former Queen) have a weird amount of UK flag decor too, ranging from clock faces, throw pillows, and even an armchair covered in a giant union jack.
I agree. I currently live near den Haag and the food leaves something to be desired. Kind of a surprise that a country so close to France - a culinary pinnacle - hasn’t picked up a thing or two.
Anecdotal, but I grew up in the US and I learned this in middle school as a gifted student. Others have mentioned it depends on the state/curriculum. I imagine in other countries they also divide their students between standard/honors/gifted-type tiers; they certainly do in the Netherlands, which is where I did my graduate studies.
Wow I haven’t seen this since I was a kid. I believe this is a clip from the movie Wild Swans.
Right, which is why I said what I think they’re getting at. Profit on a necessity/right is scummy.
You do come off as a bit obtuse, and I think that what Gabu is trying to say is that only people should own residential property, not banks/hedge funds/corporations/etc. People should own their residence, and it shouldn’t cost half their income. Renting can be beneficial, but it shouldn’t cost as much as getting your own mortgage.
A cap on how many properties each person can own would help; no one needs more than a few properties. If residences aren’t treated like an investment, prices would be more reasonable, and the barrier to entry lower. Then you could actually move place-to-place every 3 years, sell, and not get robbed by realtors who don’t deserve the huge commissions they get on the already over-inflated housing prices.
Did you know that in some places, a seller’s agent won’t even talk to you unless you have a buyer’s agent?
Anyway, small landlords aren’t really the problem. It’s the big boys who own whole buildings and neighborhoods, driving up prices just because they can. Stricter regulations need to be put into place to make those firms go back to gambling over their shitty stocks and not the roofs over our heads.
But does it say it thrice?
We need more Luigis for some more fixing.
