@klaus Pianos are just overpriced. 🎹

If they'd be so overpriced, piano companies wouldn't declare bankruptcies like all over in the last decades. They are simply very complicated instruments, and making them is hence very expensive.

@jolly yup.

I've read that this is, to a great extent, the work of Andrew and Fredo. They're known to hold grudges. It's the Chicago way.

Yeah, that's beyond weird.

A less obvious way would be to raise prices 10%, but that might cost business. Probably would.

But yeah, I'd call and ask. Also, I wonder if that surcharge was disclosed on the menu, like a surcharge for large parties.

Spot on, as usual.

Only if she had a bag over her head.

C'mon, man!

Back in your bad old days, the only way to get you off of that would be with a crowbar and a waterhose...

You've got to shoot them in the head though, or you'll ruin the meat........

Definitely creole. They have a love affair with tomatoes. Looks mighty good.

Tugboat work can be tough, especially in terms of schedule. When you're gone, you're gone. Good food helps, but it's a job guys don't always stick with, even making pretty decent money.

Yeah, my uncle did it for quite awhile. Became a mate before he retired from it.

Would even look pretty good sitting next to a Bosie.

I think that both Jon and Klaus' families have already suffered enough, don't you?

Dude, put some coated Ambassadors on that or some G2's, tune the drums to pitch and thou couldst wail wonderfully...

Would it be possible for any future president to replace the black female justice with some other skin color or gender?

Probably not in our lifetimes.

Not all heroes wear capes.

It looks like that basic seats are about $5400. That’s twice what they were in 2020.

That sneaky 3-D 4-D chess master orchestrated the invasion of Crimea too, you know.

Yeah, it's making the rounds. It's by the Critical Role folks, who I'm not a huge fan of, but hey, they're making D&D mainstream, so there's that.

Epic.

I have no need for a carpeted toilet set, got plenty of carpeting back there already. In fact, I would be a little concerned about a Velcro effect…
