I visited 2. The one in Singapore was in an office block, and not their own building. I walked in unannounced and there were three guys just sitting around smoking. LOL

He's reading into it what he personally likes. Which is fine—that's how you're supposed to watch a movie. But those guys in real life aren't exactly hardcore libertarians. Pushing that political perspective wasn't and never has been on their agenda. His lit theory needs a lot of work. It's an American 80s blockbuster. Those movies were all about scrappy upstarts getting away with flipping the board because they were good at what they did. We used to love the everloving shit out of that archetype. It's the story of America itself. So it's American, not Libertarian.

Yeah, this mostly answers my question: … situs inversus rarely causes any additional symptoms.

@bachophile still has to be hard to see that in one so young. I'd imagine the situation dredges up every emotion one could think of. Complicated indeed.

Who knows but there’s room for negotiation there. I was afraid they wouldn’t bring it up at all.

I'm lazy and didn't click the link, but if they taxed unrealized cap gains, do they send you a check for unrealized cap losses?

Sad, neither country wants millions of people they probably can't feed or employ. I'd wonder if it would be a better use of "human resources" to let undocumented folks work for their citizenship... a win-win. They'd have labor for projects (infrastructure, farming) and documented/taxable revenue sources. On one hand if I were to sneak into Italy and one day be caught, I would expect to be deported. On the other hand, if you married (and had kids) in the new country and lived there for 30 years, it's really hard to accept that.

Since I only read MSN-republished news articles reposted here by @Mik and @Jolly, presumably @Mik and @Jolly do some curation on their own before reposting here, so hopefully that will prevent most of MSN's problems from spilling over to TNCR.

Catch the non apology? He regrets being charged, not actually assaulting the people.

@jon-nyc said in Drug Prices: Don’t you choose your part D plan based on comparing formularies to the prescriptions you have? It’s that time of year. This drug (metaxalone) is not on the formulary. https://rxmedicareplans.com/pdf/CY/Value_Plus_Formulary.pdf

That’s Mother Nature telling you you don’t belong up there.

That was good

I agree with peoples sentiments in the thread. (Jokes not included however! LOL)

@Jolly said in Over 100,000,000 sold: If the batteries are worth anything, how long before that entire vending machine is in the back of an old pickup? It is on a pretty busy street and I not sure there is the same crime culture here in Thailand. Next time I walk by, I will see what type of anti-stealing mechanisms there are.

Mildly interesting. LOL

@Doctor-Phibes said in Retirement account for kids?: He has high standards, but wide tolerances. No need to talk about his former girl friends ...

Link to video Yawn...

Yeah, I saw and replied. The reply is still valid. So is this thread.

Surely, Nazis can spell "Juden"?
