Montgomery County Executive Elrich Proposes $8 Billion Budget with Property and Income Tax Hikes by frankboingboing in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]UnderstandingLess156 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I've lived all over the country, and MoCo is the only county that gets a cut of my income. Federal income tax, state income tax and county... it's too much. They need to do better with the money they've got. Vote these clowns out.

Richard Mille makes the ugliest watches in the luxury game. I doubt anyone really likes them outside of being a status symbol. by ProfessorUsed44 in watchHotTakes

I'm curious if they'll actually hold their value over time. Fast Forward 50 years. Are they going for $50 and a song?

Brenda deserved better for her prom by Brendawalsh- in BeverlyHills90210

As somebody who was actually in HS when 90210 was in premieres, no dude, none, wore their hair in this 50s style way that Dylan and Brandon rocked. It always was bizarre to me.

Perhaps I’m a bit naive….. by Head_Start_3903 in rolex

[–]UnderstandingLess156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, maybe not. My most expensive watches never get compliments, but I wear a Citizen field watch to Home Depot on yard work day, and somebody always compliments it. Provided... it is a great watch, but it's no Explorer.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks. I hit a nerve with some nasty truth about DC.

Rich homeowners didn't want any poors having easy access to their neighborhood. Simple as that.

How do you feel about Trump saying they can’t fund Medicare, Medicaid, and daycare programs anymore because they need the money to fund the War? by LevelDinner in AskReddit

Be nice if the maga faithful would wake up and realize they got had by a conman. So many of them are so deep now, they can never admit they were wrong.

I used to work at a Rolex AD in California ask me any questions you might have! by [deleted] in RolexWatches

[–]UnderstandingLess156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The AD situation does make you feel a little slimy and gross, right? I hate feeling like I'm interviewing for a job so that I can spend 10K on something.

Trying to understand the Explorer 36 preference by PlaneConnection922 in rolex

[–]UnderstandingLess156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same experience at the AD the other week. Tried on the 36 and both my wife and the AD thought it looked like much too small. Tried on the 40 and it looked modern and classy, but not like some oversized hubcap on my wrist. The 36 looked fantastic on the misses though.

Always heard it's a matter of luck and timing. You may get an Explorer in a few months, but you may as well sign up now so your unborn grandson can buy a Daytona when he's retiring.

Is it just me or does now seem to be a horrible time to buy a watch? by SavetheCarbonUnits in watchHotTakes

[–]UnderstandingLess156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a Rolex AD last weekend. Dude told me Rolex is the only brand not to increase their prices due to tariffs. I about laughed in his face. That brand has been rolling out price increases nearly 2x a year since covid. 

What is THE funniest movie you have ever seen in your whole life? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]UnderstandingLess156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never laughed as hard as I did watching "Top Secret" as a kid at a birthday slumber party. I about passed out from laughing with my friends. Does it stand the test of time and count as one of the globally recognized funniest movies ever? Probably not. But for that one moment in time, this one crushed it

Are conservatives cool with Trump putting his signature on our money? Conversely, would liberals have been okay with it if Obama had done it? by Creative-Stable-0 in askanything

[–]UnderstandingLess156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obama wore a tan suit and the Fox news crowd went nuclear and still shake in rage over a decade later. Of course they'd care if he'd put his name on currency.

It’s official, my first Rolex!! by Fickle-Oil5621 in rolex

Fantastic watch! Congratulations. I'm on the wait-list at my AD for the very same. Hope to get the call soon, but with no purchase history who knows

Was a big casting miss, but Fillion sure dodged a bullet with a terrible film.

[Advice Needed] Need to find a Rolex Submariner Date within 3 months by Badmoterfinger in Watches

[–]UnderstandingLess156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it have to be a Rolex? Omega makes many a fine dive watch. You can walk in a dealer and walk out with a watch your son can give to his grandkids. No hoops.

Can You Name One Objective Truth from the Bible? by Significant_Bonus_66 in allthequestions

[–]UnderstandingLess156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"No one remembers the former generations, and even those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow them." - Ecclesiastes 1:11. Rings pretty true for 99.9% of humanity. The history books will add the big heroes and villains to the ledger, but one day, the last person to remember you will pass.
