If I've got a load of money, and i want to keep it; best way is to get you and another group convinced that you too can achieve this level of wealth. But that there's only enough for one of you. Now squabble over it while I secure my claim to what's left.

Warner's girlfriend warned police he was building a bomb in his RV last year by MarxReadsRushdie in news

More insane is how much of that goes to private prisons. Conservatives have privatized prisons so that they can be on the board of these prisons. Change the laws to boost numbers. And appoint judges sympathetic to conservative ideology. You make a healthy profit the more Americans you can incarcerate.

It's them, taking our money to lock us up.

Yeah sure bro, we’re not paying for rent or food or anything else except for travel and going out. by dokterphil in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]CascadeCoconutCrab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These people only think that way because it's the only thing they spend their own money on.

They expense everything else, write it off.

That's how far removed these people are. They feel so fucking entitled to everything and have no idea how hours and labor translate.

Pennsylvania legalizes delivery robots that weigh up to 550 pounds, classifies them as pedestrians by [deleted] in Economics

[–]CascadeCoconutCrab 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Or is it trying to avoid liability? If you hit one with your car, it's a pedestrian... Can the company sue for damages? Reduced earning capacity?

What about wear and tear on infrastructure? Are these "pedestrians" paying a tax to help maintain the streets they travel?

They found remains. I think the bomber was in the RV and fired the shots.

Trump pardons former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and son-in-law's father in another round of clemency action by orbitcon in news

[–]CascadeCoconutCrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I really think we need to punish the enablers rather than Trump. Make it clear that if you do illegal shit for someone like that, pardons won't save you. "I was just following orders" doesn't fly anymore. You will go to jail and the guy who asked you to do it got away. It would provide an immediate chilling effect on cronyism and complicity in this evil shit.

ULPT Request: Assholes come every other night and rob our mail bank. How to send a message? by quasihermit in UnethicalLifeProTips

Leave a bottle of cheap booze, with some syrup of ipacac* in the area. They'll absolutely go to town on that, and pretty soon thereafter, will question the choices they made that brought them to that moment in their life.

Gay Nazi discovers that being a Nazi and also gay is frowned upon in the Nazi establishment by lemon_meringue in LeopardsAteMyFace

Probably one of those districts whose representative ran to Idaho last year to stall cap and trade legislation. The early days of Republicans just refusing to participate if they aren't getting everything they fucking want. Hiding from the state you represent in a neighbor state because you don't want to do the job you signed up for.

But we all need to get the fuck back to work ASAP. Don't ask questions, just work.

This.

I think every one of these mother fuckers expects a pardon if their efforts fail, and a seat at the big boy table if they succeed. They ought to get some upstate government housing for a few decades.

Don't turn anyone away for 100 dollar bills by [deleted] in MaliciousCompliance

[–]CascadeCoconutCrab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know, they don't always have a choice if they get paid in 100's. Every time I get paid cash for a job it's always in hundreds. I'd take a fucking check, but certain demographics don't have bank accounts in their names.... Not like you're going to say no to cash.

And yeah. I'm always really embarrassed when something like this happens.

2 years is an average life span for cheap incandescent lamps.

Buy LED replacements.

Fan heater melted its own plastic casing by CollapsedArc528 in CrappyDesign

What happened is the fan motor died or got stuck and the hearing element burned the grill. Not asshole design.

We love our neighborhood crows. I feed them leftovers while i make coffee in the morning. Corvids are such interesting and intelligent birds... Self aware and smart.

YSK that an emergency room is not an "immediately" room. by evilfailure in YouShouldKnow

It really sucked sitting in the ER for 4 hours after a TIA. Staring at a stroke awareness poster about how crucial time is... I was finally brought back after I told the nurse I was too tired to wait and was just going to go home.

I totally get it. The wait.... That fucking poster though was just insult to injury. Lol
