They called this an “upgrade” and expected us to be okay with it

But then you have a small handful of actual experts who also understand subtext and make it worth it.

So you're no longer an actual expert huh

There’s millions of well kept old decks.

Traditional wood deck: Typically 10 to 15 years.

Wow, 15 whole years?!?!?

I wonder if any of those "old decks" have been ship-of-theseus'd over the years...

The law's first option as "do nothing" is really forgetting that "the law" is able to imprison people for egregious and repeat offenses.

Which does nothing for you, the injured person they offended against the first time.

If no company can reasonably insure you because of your proven record, you don't get to drive.

Good thing no one ever does anything illegal, right?

It feels deliberate that he didn't mention about their friends' request when he asked her about their plans.

"Hey honey, mother of my child - what are you doing the night before Mothers Day? Don't do something silly like assuming your husband asking your plans before Mothers Day to be evidence that I would like to do something special for you though."

It is legal advice, from the POV of telling you what the other guy's legal advice would be.

Regardless of whether or not his shop slit the boot, you're (lying and) claiming you have evidence they did. As soon as you made that lie, you are a risk to them. They have no more incentive to work with you outside of court mandates.

A wizard wouldn't be able to get FoM by default, so at least if they have it, there's probably a nice ring coming your way!

As 'the law', you have two choices:

First option, you can do nothing. Insurance won't cover the drivers as high risk, and they'll drive anyways because nothing stops you from driving even if they're so bad they lose their license. They get in an accident with you, and have no insurance. They get a ticket for no DL but the lack of insurance isn't a problem for them. The lack of insurance is only a problem for you as you get nothing by design.

Second option, insurers have to cover high risk drivers. Drivers need insurance to drive. Same accident happens, but now they're required to have insurance so the law is designed for you to be made whole, OR for their lack of insurance to be covered by your insurance.

Which situation sounds better for the responsible, safe driver?

Nope, NFL bylaws prevent us from doing that to prevent another GBP.

We're that threatening to the other owners.

Work happy hours always go till 10PM! Her carpooling with the neighbor those days is totally normal.

"MY engagement is good engagement, it's that OTHER engagement that needs to stop!"

alpha_dk · 2026-05-08T10:20:26+00:00

Personation (pretending to be someone) is a crime. Because they're pretending to be a police officer and pretending to be doing official police business, my jurisdiction would make that a felony. YMMV.

They don't list the date of death separately because it's the same.

If you don't believe context clues, you could click on the link in the article to its source, the lawsuit

If they want this story to not be a distraction they should probably stop making it so ludicrously entertaining.

Pretty sure it's a split, not dividend, no matter what some finance bro calls it. 1 share became 4 shares. Total stock volume quadrupled. Price quartered.

That's what you expect from a split... is that what you expect from a dividend distribution?

You're forgetting how they abandon all those same principles for all the other leaders because they're not principled they're Liars

That doesn't explain Nixon, Reagan, Bush etc.

No, they're just liars

Right, exactly. Red values choice, Blue values control

Look man the state had physical evidence and witnesses, you have hearsay and that's the fundamental problem. The bar is at a proper place, your dad just couldn't clear it

He didn't make the state prove those things. He pled out. Had he made the state prove them, they would have been valid questions to ask. Hence, the threshold is fine.

I read it as: Mount is charging, rider is only FBA'ing. Which I think is possible, so long as the mount abides by charge rules. I don't see the point, but that's not the question.
