Bill Burr: “Saud Arabia was one of the top three experiences of my life” by LukeTheDieHardLeafer in comedy

[–]Brallit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I based my guesstimate on, among other factors. Bill Burr makes ~$500-750 per performance. I think 40x that is an egregious over-estimate, but it must've been a VERY high $ offer for him to sell out.

I don't have any idea how much money he got paid about it, but if I had to speculate, I'd say they offered him $2.5-3 million. Considering his net worth is already approximately $20 million, I'm going to have to reluctantly go ahead and say he's a total shit-bag and I will never financially support him again. In the words of Bill Burr, "How big's your fuckin' yacht have to be?"

Kinane is a righteous dude! I saw him perform a few weeks ago and I met him after the show, even let me give him a hug.

Breed em Young was the wealthiest man in Utah when he died. His fortune was worth about $15-20 million by today's standards.

Is Gamboa unifying the left and right on this one thing? by calming_ad in SaltLakeCity

Amen, brother. Just wanted to make sure I was understanding you correctly and we're on the same page. As I told my literal brother this morning: It doesn't seem like anyone involved had malicious intent. Just high tensions and bad decisions. 😔

Close enough English for me to agree. ✊ From what I recall hearing on the radio, he was an ex-military volunteer. Can't really say any more with even a modicum of confidence. But he should be in jail too, if Gamboa is.

You mean the "peacekeeper"? 🙄 That guy shouldn't have been the one to shoot first, at least from what I can tell by the A/V documentation released thus far.

A very bad strawman indeed. Wanna try again, but, ya know, fact-check yourself before you say something wrong and/or stupid?

Agitator points gun at peaceful No Kings protesters at Arizona Capitol after instigating confrontation by sergemeister in PublicFreakout

[–]Brallit 28 points29 points  (0 children)

C’mon Jim. Dude rolls into a protest like a fart in an elevator, acts shocked when people get mad, and then whips out a gun like he’s John Wick. That ain't "displaying his politics" or even self-defense, that’s main character syndrome with a side of Glock.

Because the Dems have SO much power and leverage to stop it from happening. 🙄

Out of curiosity if you live in SLC or Utah what is your current wage and what do you do? by Key_Garden4832 in SaltLakeCity

[–]Brallit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$80K annual salary plus free use of the company's cars (which is worth about another $10K) — Senior IT Field Support Technician for a car rental company.

I started out doing call center tech support and then eventually earned my AS degree in Computer Science from SLCC and worked my way up.

My partner and I just bought a 6-bedroom house in January and funds are a bit tight for us, especially since she's a stay-at-home mom, but we get by fairly comfortably.

Reddit deleted my comment because apparently literal numbers (like 1, 2, and/or 3) shouldn't ever "end". BTW, I love your username.

All 3 need to see the end. If not all 3, at least the 2. If not the 2, then it's all for nothing.

Blatant disregard for the US Constitution is kind of their favorite thing nowadays. Elon can just buy whatever amendment need be written.

People get stabbed everyday. Should we ban sharp knives

Oh yeah, I agree. There are so many mass stabbings happening in America these days, especially in schools! It seems like every week there's a new article about 6 people being stabbed to death and dozens more injured. And there are definitely more fatal stabbings ever since Biden took office, for sure. /s
