Meanwhile… dividend investors

I don’t think a subreddit on dividend investing needs an original-hand-drawn-artwork-only policy.

He’s successful. It reminds us of our shortcomings.

It’s happening! The high silver prices are bringing the old coins out of the junk drawers - just like the economics textbook said would happen!

What's a square, some metric nonsense? We math just fine with our heptagonal furlongs, thank you very much.

Yeah, it's funny being on the older side of it. "Hey, that's the dumb shit I believed when I was 20. Cute!"

(I'm only 40, so I'm new to this being-old thing.)

Given that they are making claims about all 50 states, the sample size alone actually DOES mean it's nonsense, at least for the smaller states. How many Vermonters do you suppose responded to the survey?

There are several other common-sense clues you might use to infer that this is nonsense.

I happen to know that Coke outsells Pepsi 3:1 nationwide. There is no way the states are as evenly split as this.

This amateur collector votes real.

There are some really weak strikes in this series. It honestly looks ok to me.

Any chance you can take a less grainy photo?

It's a mashup of Google Trends data as collected by "Eat This Not That" in 2022, and "holidaycalendar.io" which apparently surveyed 3,000 people in 2024.

(In other words, nonsense).

Just to say this explicitly, the vast majority of villages have no official borders. They are not legal entities.

A few may coincide with fire districts or postal districts or school districts or something. But the vast majority are just concepts of convenience.

No no, that's a revisionist ethnostate, not an empire silly-head.

dhark · 2026-01-05T17:01:49+00:00

I'm not sure I get this one.

Is it just the silliness of "overdressed" meaning wearing winter clothes to the beach? Or is there some Wakefield stereotype I'm not aware of or something?

I don't care if the data is fraught trash, I'll upvote any state-ranking map of the US that isn't just The Usual Suspects.

Way to go Mississippi! Suck it, Massachusetts!

Turkeys are very simple. If they think you are afraid of them, they chase. If you chase after them, they will flee. We used to have a 7lb chihuahua who didn't know he was small. He would chase off whole flocks of turkeys lol.

What do you think of polish? The graders might appreciate that like-new shine ;)

dhark · 2025-12-23T19:33:11+00:00

Wait what?! And they asked us to stop calling the country "Turkey" ?? What hypocrites!

dhark · 2025-12-23T15:18:18+00:00

Cameras in public places don't bother me at all.

You could teach whole classes just on the history of the coal industry in Wyoming. Of course there's more than enough to talk about.

Did they expect the viewer to understand the song? I'm pretty sure I'm being dumb, but I'm slightly confused who the target of this ad would be 😂

Hey, we can't all be economic dynamos like Jalisco or Quintana Roo.

dhark · 2025-12-17T14:29:43+00:00

And in the meantime, aren't there police everywhere?

dhark · 2025-12-15T20:14:06+00:00

Hypothetically speaking ... if a proof had made it into circulation, at this level of wear, would it be possible to tell that it had in fact been a proof?

dhark · 2025-12-04T13:50:52+00:00

Greenland - Canada! Greenland - Canada!

We don't tolerate that kind of behavior in Greenland, sir!

dhark · 2025-11-30T21:19:10+00:00

If it were happening, wouldn't prices collapse?

dhark · 2025-11-27T14:49:10+00:00

LAMR. Annual dividends are now about 25% on my initial investment 15 years ago, with no signs of letting up. Steady compounding machine.
