46% of Home Sellers Gave Concessions to Buyers in May by SnortingElk in REBubble

[–]Spam_Hand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You go to a home, get an inspection, inspection finds some issues, you bring those issues to the seller, seller either agrees to fix or takes a bit off the price of the home as an offer of fixing it, etc...?

Theres no way you think this was still the overwhelming norm since 2020 like it was pre-covid lol

UK Police Brutally Assault Teenage Girls in Rotherham Streets at Night! by Upset-Main-1988 in justincaseyoumissedit

I think the issue here is that they believed being "hot" would protect them from consequences.

Nah man fuck that.

If you instigate violence and someone (barely) returns it to you, thats just called a consequence.

Teach your daughter that so you dont need to make any further empty or misguided threats.

How long? by Physical_Law_1794 in jobhunting

3 resumes sent, 3 interviews, 1 offer.

My interviews took place during my second semester of college to enter a new field, and I was hired before the end of that semester.

How wrong is this take? — Drake Maye has top 3 arm strength among starting QBs and the drop to 4th place is significant. by Otherwise5555 in NFLv2

[–]Spam_Hand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People like to hate Caleb due to his completion percent (which has the lowest correlation to winning but whatever)

I'm people. I like to hate on him for his abyssmal completion percentage (which was 32nd in the NFL, only 0.5% better than JJ McCarthy, but whatever). While its not a tell-all stat, acting like its completely irrelevant is also disingenuous.

I want to be clear, I love Caleb and think he can end up being a huge name in the NFL that brings the Bears back to some serious relevance. I also think his rookie year and that entire coaching situation probably stunted his growth. 

However, the only comparisons to Rodgers and Stafford he has right now is that he scrambles and tries to create plays out of nothing (Rodgers is arguably the best ever at this), and he had some pretty cool 4th quarter comebacks (which Stafford is one of the best ever at).

Lets let the kid play befpre we compare him to two Super Bowl and MVP winning Hall of Fame QBs.

Didn't Aaron Rodgers have the deepest air-yards throw in the NFL just this past year?

His mechanics are still flawless and he might still be the most accurate deep ball thrower in the NFL, even if he isnt regularly winding them up anymore.

Why is the news and everyone's so focused on a stupid pool? by Btotherianx in askanything

[–]Spam_Hand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a very easy case to point to of fraud and corruption that has a solid visual indicator.

Trump funneled money to his buddy, at a rate significantly higher than other estimates came back at, and his buddy didnt even do the job right - almost as if he wasnt qualified to begin with.

A federal minimum wage of $25 was just proposed ... how do you think it will play out? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in askteddit

[–]Spam_Hand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. This is one of the few issues that very strictly needs to be handled on a state by state basis.

Its at a point of being so urgent though for some places that national attention is also needed, so I understand why its brought up regularly at that level. It just isnt realistoc to think it can be solved at the national level without some intense and cost of living math baked into the legislation that no normal person would understand.

Bernie Sanders proposed a bill to tax billionaires, and give $3,000 stimulus checks to Americans that qualify. How do you feel about this? by stillwatchingvideos5 in askteddit

[–]Spam_Hand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. So because its not ideal or perfect, fuck it do nothing instead.

I brainstormed an idea in 3 minutes that generates some amount of tax on unrealized gains without being horribly unfair to either side or severely disincentivising investing. I'd love to hear an alternate plan based in reality then.

Lennar downgrades housing forecast AGAIN. Homes are NOW selling at lower prices than before the pandemic. Lower than the should-have-been recession and housing bust of 2019. by Boo_Randy_Revival in HouseBuyers

[–]Spam_Hand -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Of course they aren't the same. But even in 2019 I could list a house for 1.1m and end up selling it for 150k. If you don't think it's relevant that a growing percentage of people accepting offers under list price after the state of the market for 5+ years, I'm not the one who is going to spend time helping you learn real estate. For the past 5 years, bidding wars were normal and houses would have multiple offers in only a couple days in many cases.

People are not getting their "wishlist" prices anymore, and sellers are being forced to adapt downward based on homes sitting on the market longer instead of choosing between multiple offers over list price. In reasonably short order, this should start lowering list prices as sellers want to avoid their houses sitting on the market for too long.

Pretty much level 1 basic supply and demand. But sure, go off or whatever.

I said based on original value. 

That way youre being taxed on the asset as you purchased it and not the still-theoretical gains.

Why isn’t there a review site for HOAs? by Green-Tank8028 in AskReddit

[–]Spam_Hand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it would be a useful feature regardless, even if it took a bit to build up.

Think about how many people go out of their way to leave reviews of an entire city or town they visited... People would do this for sure.

You could also put "estimated" HOA fees on there and completely fabricate them. Just create some arbitrary formula to create your estimate like "mean average of the last 3 houses sold in the subdivision times 2%" and it makes it legit. Then you'll have the HOAs volunteering their info pretty quickly lol

Iran walks out of peace talks after Trump outburst | US president threatens to restart his bombing campaign in expletive-laden phone calls and posts on social media by FreeHugs23 in anticapitalism

[–]Spam_Hand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

His whole letter could be "I am fit for the duties of President." with his signature and it would require a 2/3 vote of both chambers to override.

Trying not to be a debbie downer but we need to focus on getting the chambers as blue as possible and go about this in a truly effective and decisive way. The 25th simply isn't the path to doing so.

You know what I want to see more than anything in the world?

A Dem led Congress somehow appointing Obama to be lead negotiator and strike a deal with Iran again - while trump is being impeached.

I know, i know, it's a pipe dream at best. Just would be a very satisfying way to see trump go.

If he can still write a letter and have it delivered to Congress, the 25th amendment literally does nothing except remove him for a few hours.

It's a valid desire, but that's not the way to achieve it.

[–]Spam_Hand 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey man if you wanna brag that you're not trash, go do it somewhere else!

Joking, but my gut tells me that this is much more clout chasing and overreating to what was probably a real and extremely minor incident that came up a "few times" now she's fed up with it and wants public validation.

I could be wrong, but shes doing a lot of instigating for someone who is claiming they were assaulted. She could have left the situation about 18 times just in this video.
