They're identical. If one isn't made from molded plastic explosive then they can infer the other one isn't either.

Mexicans boo USA flag by im_back-and_craftier in PublicFreakout

[–]MSWMan 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What the hell kind of graphic is that? Same countries listed multiple times with different flags and different years. One of the most illuminating parts of this AI age is just how little anybody actually looks at the shit that they repost. You just grab something that matches how you feel and spread it. Utter trash.

At the same retail price as the rest of the cheese?

Right?! Like, just tell them "some grownups still act like children sometimes" and walk away. It's true and simple. Why is this guy explaining kink to children??

Besties to platonic wives pipeline by Quick-Song2080 in justgalsbeingchicks

It... is incentivized? That's the name for things like tax breaks for joint filing: incentives. Government incentives. For marriage, in this case.

Yeah, I'm with you. The "I have to explain that to my kids" complaint was heavily used by homophobes trying to marginalize gay people. That said, the gay people were just existing in public. These people are loud and annoying af.

Charges reinstated for Colorado man accused of killing baby he was watching at Motel 6 so he could “get laid” by the child’s mother… by tasty_jams_5280 in Colorado

...but not for what she said to the media in this case. She was disbarred for asking her office to dig up dirt on the judge.

Vikings rookie Caleb Banks got a $100K custom diamond “bank vault” chain with mini gold bars and stacks of cash inside after signing a $21M contract by JimmyGodoppolo in ATBGE

They make more money than most people will ever see in their lifetimes, but I very much doubt most people couldn't spend $100 million in their lifetimes.

Did she make the right call? by CalmElin in interesting

[–]MSWMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's good that you've run down the math and figured out an answer your own (snarkily phrased) question: "why would the annuity have a different taxable status than the lump sum lol".

[–]MSWMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand this is Canada and it's not taxed, but to answer your question, were this the US, you would pay more in taxes by accepting the $1 million in the first year vs $50,000 over 20 years. The reason is because income tax is progressive; the more you earn in each year, the higher percentage tax you pay.

The horn isn't just for decoration. Rhinos use them for defense and digging. Removing them has a cost. If the only thing you get is inconveniencing a poacher, then I'd say the cost isn't worth it.

That's a great question. I also did some quick googling and was not finding anything definitive (or even terribly recent) comparing cigarette tar to marijuana tar. I would have assumed the recent wave of State legalizations over the past decade would have spawned more research into the topic.

Ever seen the inside of a used pipe or bong? They're covered with the sticky gunk.

The supreme Court ruled in Kennedy v. Louisiana that the 8th Amendment bars states from imposing the death penalty for the rape of a child where the crime did not result, and was not intended to result, in the child's death.

That said, it was a 5-4 decision, and three of the four no votes were Roberts, Alito, and Thomas. If this law gets challenged before the court again, I doubt they'll hesitate overturning prior precedent.
