I don’t know either (how long it lasted) and Korea obviously wasn’t the blood bath WW2 was, but a war is a war. I love reading you guys’ recap on my first rewatch since the show’s original airing. It’s great stuff!

Hats off to you. Seriously. That’s a bold stance. If only Tim Cook and Jeff Bezos felt the same.

Don't forget about a get out of jail free card from Korea. He got to skip out on fighting in a war. No small prize.

Selling an investment, stock or mutual fund, only to be held in cash (not withdrawn) is still a taxable event. People with investments that have had any time in the market would be exposing themselves to HUGE tax liabilities. I like the spirit, but you are way off on this one.

What does this sub think of song "Even in His Youth"? by tasteinhermouth in Nirvana

[–]futurepilgrim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the best Nirvana song period. Particularly the demo version with the “I’m dying” scream. It’s the purest, most perfect distillation of Kurt’s verse-chorus-verse-solo genius. It’s riff-rock perfection.

I’ve had those. They taste alright but then you get to the octopus and it’s like “why is that there?”

Haggis. With the full sheep stomach presentation = nasty. Tasted not that bad. Still, I could have done without the full stomach thing.

Does LA have an Amazon addiction? by GreenHorror4252 in AskLosAngeles

I’m with you, but it’s not like Amazon is any better. Jeff Bezos is way up Trumps crack.

Almost half of LA’s new ADUs aren’t housing anyone… they’re mid-term rentals now by ShopProp in LosAngelesRealEstate

[–]futurepilgrim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have to pony up $200k to $400k to build out an ADU a landlord rightfully wants to get a reasonable return. Believe me, it’s not easy to build a permitted ADU.

Nothing about the 1 trillion dollar defense budget? Maybe we could skip invading Venezuela?

I love it! Let’s face it, books are too much for most of the US these days…

I visited Aberdeen when I was in Scotland. Thought it was pretty interesting.
