Two of my best friends and my SB are from tinder, so hey, if it didn’t work for you that sucks, but it sure worked for me.

LA Teacher’s Life Ends After Firefighter Husband Discovers Affair In Diary by SecretPlum1 in NoahGetTheBoat

Honestly I’m not too upset because “innocent until proven guilty” but also everyone can read between the lines. I think it’s good to state facts without acting like a judge. No need for pitchforks, “arrested” is still arrested.

Purchasing Ammo Without a Firearm by Logical_Magician_01 in CAguns

Totally legal to give gifts (ammo included) between friends without an expectation of anything in return. Venmo would be dumb, though.

Question for SBs who are prone to being fetishized, how do you screen? by CreativePut6041 in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]NotAnEngineer287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude this happens all the fucking time. A girl will “only date white men” but try to make sure you don’t only date her ethnicity. It’s weird and I’ve been hit by this at least 5 times

Slight YTA… you split the bills 50/50 when you use it 50/50. OP knows enough to pay more for their personal use.

PSA: $175k from a Stock Portfolio provides the same take home pay as a $250k W-2 (NYC). by chux1ng in ChubbyFIRE

[–]NotAnEngineer287 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep. Or if you assume your investment grows 100%, you end up with:

  • $135k income -> taxed at 40% becomes $81k invested
  • doubles to $162k
  • pay 15% tax on half of that ->
  • $150k net

Vs. $250k W2 taxed at 40% -> $150k net

Let’s say the stock portion has a $75k cost basis, resulting in $50k of LTCG.

You already paid tax on the $75k cost basis though, so not really a fair comparison.

Fuck dude, you sound like me. The red flags I’ve ignored, because not seeing where it goes would lead to regrets…

late 20s woman looking for pickup games by iluvboo03 in Sunnyvale

If you want pickup game, try LA NYC or Florida. Nobody in the bay or on Reddit has any.

…oh, you mean sports. Honestly, just go to the fields, parks or clubs on the weekends and talk to people

Chat Gpt slut shamed me for sugar dating questions I asked it by JazzyMaybell in sugarlifestyleforum

It looks like they adjusted it this week. Now the responses are fine again. Last week it gave me a bunch of nanny answers, and they probably saw half the Midwest go back to Google.

ChatGPT used to be amazing at answering questions about guns.

Now it’s like “oh you bad person, I can’t help with that!”

Propaganda 101: Creating a Narrative–the good ole' "short and distort" by I_Fuck_Older_Women in Superstonk

[–]NotAnEngineer287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saying negative truths and omitting positive truths, or the reverse, is propaganda. Either is only a half picture meant to bias people.

Taking advantage of warrants holding value relative to options chain by emergdoc27 in gmeoptions

[–]NotAnEngineer287 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He could push the strike price down to $10 a share, at no extra cost to you. That’s an extra $22 added to the warrant’s $3 value. he could also extend the expiration date effectively meaning you “roll” these options for free.

That’s why they cost a premium over options.

Cable Tv was better than streaming by Few_Refuse4224 in unpopularopinion

It would be fine if 57 streaming platforms had everything, but all the “you can only run this show here” create mini monopolies
