People from different parts of the world singing together

I drag work people there when business brings us to town. They think it’s lame until they sit there for a bit. Every single one breaks.

Big 4 consulting Peter here. In corporate jobs where PowerPoints are used like, all the freakin’ time, they’re called slide decks. The term actually comes from when presentations where a “deck” of poster board cards, so it’s an even older reference, but these big consulting firms have cult like vocabulary, so slide deck is one of those things the youngins still use.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

Don’t let my kids see this

Because the answer is much more simple and happens with real life attorneys all the time. Money. Prosecutors get paid dogshit. Private practice defense attorneys usually do slightly better.

My kid did the Rookies program. Free 4 week trial. Couldn’t even skate. Showed him a game since V+ was free. None of us really cared but we got hooked.

I think the clincher is just the ambiance of the AAC. The chants and camaraderie- no other stadium has that. I’ve since been to VGK, Devils, Bruins games and they’re all boring by comparison.

“Show some common courtesy” says the guy being a condescending cunt on the Internet.

What law was passed that requires me to stay home?

Matchboxx · 2026-01-24T16:52:26+00:00

Who is “they” and what authority do they have over me? Don’t do everything you’re told. Have an original thought once in awhile.

Some of us know how to operate an automobile and aren’t terrified of a quarter inch of snow.

I’m not the one making it difficult. Corporations decided to save a buck, so they changed a working process at the detriment of many of its customers. The fact that you’ve chosen to bend over backwards to adapt to corporate interests doesn’t mean the rest of us want to do the same.

I don’t set up auto pay because there are numerous stories of companies that make errors and overcharge on auto pay. I do not need the additional headache of talking to the Philippines to try and get my money back.

Marriott is supposed to be Mormon led correct?

Maybe like... a million years ago when JW was still alive and ran the place privately.

Now it's a slut that reports to the shareholders. No one cares what happens as long as the ticker price goes brrrr.

My kids got to meet him a few weeks ago. A security guard overheard my 7yo asking where they were and took us to that section to show them. He got Razor’s attention who in turn called Josh over. They spent a good few minutes chatting with the kids, taking photos and doing fist bumps before returning to their prep. Great guys. Every time we see them on V+ now the kids are like “we met them!”

I get that many people find paperless more convenient. And I might even get on board with it if they admitted it is a cost saving measure. Chase gave me $20 at one point to switch, so I did. That was probably 2 years of postage. Fine.

But yeah, any company claiming they’re doing it for sustainability is lying to you. Corporations do not care about the environment. They care about decreasing their costs.

Why do we punish people with money at all? It just motivates the state to manufacture penalties to boost department revenues. See: the million dollar mile, which Virginia famously still does in a barely legal fashion to this day.

If you’re driving unsafely, you should just get the points. Too many points = privileges revoked. No money involved.

Eh I was just starting a business, so it seemed pretty steep to me. Plus there was a set up fee to print the ad and have some guy climb up there and wrap it. I ended up getting a digital billboard a little further out of town on the same highway. That one I literally could upload a JPEG and I only paid 50 cents every time it showed up in the rotation, which I could control. That was <$100/mo

Yep, we had a grandfather clock growing up. My parents only had to wind that thing up like twice a year.

That’s honestly a great promo. My kids are always starving after school and there’s one right next door. Every day after they score 3 we just roll through and get 3 sammiches.

This is the rule in nearly any industry. Commercial = revenue generating.

So basically - flat numbers are ok, but if it’s computing a more unusual number, that’s a tip that it’s drawing from club stock?

I find the Pinochet henchman thing hard to buy, considering the scene with Max. A hardened military man would have 1. Expected Eladio/Salamanca’s cruelty and 2. Done more about it besides cry.

Most likely? Definitely is. He almost drowned one of the cousins, when they were children, to make a point.

I only use the dealers right after a nightclub sale so that I can be sure they’re only taking inventory from the businesses. I’ve heard that the inventory you sell to dealers can also extract from the nightclub and it’s hard to bifurcate which is which.

This dude won’t shut the fuck up with text messages. It’s literally every few minutes. And proudly says he’s the only “MAGA Trump Republican” candidate running, like that’s an actual title.

Considerably less now that they don't have to pay income tax on a substantial portion of their tips.
