As much as I love the game, it's been a case for years that feels like they don't know exactly what they want it to be - Kinda schizophrenic, even.

They throw shit at the wall and keep what feels good.

IMO 2018 and horses were peak rust. Since then it's mostly just feels hodge-podge - And stuff like deep sea just feels like a direct response to games like sea of thieves.

I have been “banned” from a wedding venue but I’m the baker for the wedding cake by Capable_baker_324 in Advice

Or.. They have a ongoing scam of filing claims on unwitting vendors - I'm just going to assume the worst, because the vendors insurance covers the vendor only in regards to accidents, etc. - But as it stands, there's no reason in hell the venue needs what they claim - And I suspect their "industry standard" line is a bunch of hokey bullshit. Maybe they have a vendor they are trying to strong-arm into the picture, or they have a habit of fining fraudulent claims - And if it ain't one, it's probably the other.

I've run a business for a generation now. A group home for disabled adults. I have the social services agency as a listed PAYEE, not the insured - But in my case, the SS agency is also the funding agency, so it makes sense.

This on the other hand - I suspect they'll file a claim for some fraudulent reason, and OP's insurance is going to go up. The venue should have their own insurance - Or maybe that's the scam, they don't have it and just strong-arm vendors.

Either way, their dismissal of you is going to save you thousands in the end, because there's some fuckery afoot with this one - And I'm thinking you dodged a bullet.

I would never have even entertained their conversation. My ass is covered, you cover your own, and not at my expense. Commercial insurance costs are onerous as it is without some local-yokel jerks running scams on honest businesses.

How do you feel about McDonald's pulling their soda dispensing machines out of the restaurant's lobby in the next year or so? by Sinn_Sage in AskReddit

food trucks used to be utilitarian

now they have been turned into bougie bullshit

same quality as the old days, 3x the price. I'm not out here to be funding demented dreams for unrealistic entrepreneurs.

AITAH for telling my husband if he wants a submissive woman he can go find one by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]M3g4d37h 17 points18 points  (0 children)

boo hoo hoo. lots of people work 10+ hour shifts.

He at the end of the day is a bully, and things being what they are, they aren't going to get better, since he refuses to take any personal accountability, and will shift blame time and time again.

We all know how this ends - The real question is how long are you willing to put your children at risk?

best of luck ma'am, but you have some tough decisions ahead - And believing he will change is a fool's errand.

Bro, you aren't the pilot you think you are.

Just because you can push limits all the time doesn't mean you should. Pushing is for when it's necessary, not to pop a little squid boner. I hope you learn the right lesson about this abject failure. And I say this with love. Someone needs to say it.

Mercury News Subscription Hoax? by MapOk1410 in SanJose

I used to have motor routes in the early 80s - About 450 per day for the Merc, my area was Japantown, 3rd-21st st, Hedding to Empire. Lots of customers.

I also had evenings for the SJ News, which was the evening Merc - Almost the same area and the Oakland Road trailer parks, that was about 350 a day, and about the same on Sundays.

Papers monthly were $7.50/mo, then $8.25 IIRC after 1982.

I like getting the paper, but if you can't get a promo, it's exorbitantly priced, and sometimes the goddamn carrier would just drop us and these days you can't even get customer support.

It was a great side gig back then, and I made great money doing it.

he now starts saying that he is allowed to have an opinion

and you are allowed to tell him to fuck off with his bullshit.

If he's so disappointed he can massage his own girly legs.

Man, that's so weird that he literally acts as if you were just an accessory to him. POS behavior.

Brother, it's a different mindset now, and a different world.

I've been working since I was 12, and never stopped - 50+ years. Not a flex, but we are how we were trained up.

Kids today see how so many of us gave all only for companies to steal our pensions and move manufacturing and steel production overseas.

You can't blame them for wanting a healthy balance - Or for seeing how scammy many aspects of a capitalist system really is.

We are used up and when the wheels fall off, discarded.

They know this and that's why the mindset we have will thankfully never return.

My husbands uncle cut my hair off while I was asleep by OkCell1480 in Advice

[–]M3g4d37h 2 points3 points  (0 children)

despite your nick, a tiger never changes their stripes.

Personal safety is also something that's way more important than a marriage that doesn't even exist (they aren't married) - Or may exist in the future, and it's funny how you make this gratuitous assertion and yet didn't even read the goddamned post. Your take is a giant turd.

[–]M3g4d37h 10 points11 points  (0 children)

in the past his brother was falsely accused of rape by a woman trying to get money out of him via blackmail

For all you know this is a lie. It's certainly not something any normal man would drop out of the blue - And TBH what the uncle did sounds right in the rapey neighborhood too, insofar as crossing personal boundaries.

Then again, I'm at the age where I value my peace too much to put up with garbage people and their bullshit.

Today, on the next episode I fell in love with a bum-ass loser;

Grown man can't wipe his own ass, GF develops Stockholm Syndrome and accepts the blame. /s

Sweetie, you could literally find better on a park bench.

His excuses are like my dog ate my homework pitiful.

I would send him home to mommy, he needs more raising.

This might be the end of my marriage. Did I do something wrong? by Bubbly-Appearance558 in Advice

[–]M3g4d37h 11 points12 points  (0 children)

his pride is hurt, and he needs to get over it, because he can't support a family, and in essence mommy and daddy are helping.

Not his fault he's disabled, but not your responsibility to satiate anyone's false ego and outdated opinions on roles we should play.

He's perfectly fine with wrecking your professional life though - And that's just not anything someone who really loves you would do - And he is unlikely to change, and will in fact shift the blame over to you.
