    @Mik said in How about a Vacation on Private Yatch: I don't know about a yatch. That's what jon's sister calls it but I've not heard the term anywhere else outside of that context.

    @taiwan_girl said in $150K to Melania: Has anybody seen or heard of Melania Trump over the past months? My guess, based on absolutely no information or knowledge (LOL), is that the Trumps marriage is a "marriage of convenience" at this point. She agrees to keep quiet, not ask for a divorce, etc. In return, he leaves her alone to do what she wants, buy what she wants, etc. More of a fantasy than a guess, I think.

    The 97 Corolla was the first car I bought new - leased actually, when we moved to Canada. It was a realization of the American (Canadian actually) dream. We parked it outside in Niagara Falls during a hailstorm and every single panel was damaged. How we laughed.

    "Alma, tell us: All modern women are jealous Which of your magical wands Got you Gustav and Walter and Franz? The first one she married was Mahler Whose buddies all knew him as Gustav And each time he saw her he'd holler: "Ach, that is the fräulein I must have!" Their marriage, however, was murdah He'd scream to the heavens above: "I'm writing Das Lied von der Erde Und she only wants to make love!"

    @Aqua-Letifer said in AI Pictures People from Each US State: @taiwan_girl said in AI Pictures People from Each US State: @89th said in AI Pictures People from Each US State: @Mik said in AI Pictures People from Each US State: Now do them all in blackface. It couldn't possibly be more demeaning. I wonder why the Ohio fan's shirt said "REDE" instead of "REDS" I think there is also something with copyright and use of actual brand names. But there's not with stealing thousands of other images and illustrations to make the AI images? Unfortunately no. I have hear that they are starting to get sue a lot from various artists, authors, etc.

    The Costco Star does not mean a product is being discontinued. It generally just means the price is reduced below normal. Sometimes it’s due to being discontinued from Costco, but it’s just as likely to be an overstock issue. My bet is that Costco ordered the usual summer’s worth of Bud Light, but a 28% drop in sales has resulted in a LOT of cases of beer rapidly approaching their sell by date. You will likely see less Bud Light on the shelves, but it will still be there…

    @LuFins-Dad said in Ghostrooms: @Horace said in Ghostrooms: Agree with 89th. I don't have any issue with this. The real loser is the park, who could obviously be making more money by selling their rooms to people who place value in them. As for the alleged poor souls who miss out on a room, that's just examples of people not being able to have something they cannot afford. There's nothing wrong with that. But the people actually wanting the room can afford it. And want it. And normally want to spend more money than people using the hack for cheaper express passes. Yes the park is missing out, and their inefficient/stupid way of addressing their market causes this. They are not maximizing their profit, and this market would look less ridiculous if they were. It's not a failure of a free market, it's just stupid behavior by a participant in the free market.
