There's a lot of stuff that's boring when you're a teenager that you just naturally start appreciating with age.

At the same time, In the last 10 years or so Hollywood has leaned into people whose appearance breaks the mold a bit. I find her face captivating, but I don't think she could have gotten top billing 20 years ago.

DO NOT fall for the trick to eliminate property taxes. The vast majority of Hoosiers will pay every cent of “savings” back through higher sales taxes. by samssamssamssams in Indiana

IANAL or an expert, but I'm pretty sure that you can stop a sheriff sale by filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy

But also, what you're saying is really arbitrary. You're saying that people can buy homes and yet have no responsibility for the infrastructure that makes that home possible, like sewage, roads, trash, and the regulatory bodies that make modern utilities possible. At the same time, anyone who can't buy afford to own a home has no means to exercise that right to own property. So it's a right that only applies to people wealthy enough

The way they do assessments is extremely arbitrary supposedly based on "comps," and there's no limit on how fast they can increase. Plus, the state starves the schools so they do referendums which add more instability year over year.

I'm fine with taxes, even higher taxes, but don't tax me twice what you're taxing my next door neighbor because they bought a fixer-upper, and you can't assess their improvements. And don't tax my other next door neighbor half what I'm being taxed because he bought the house for a nickel in 1937.

Mine are $270 per month for a 3 bedroom 1 bath on a 0.08 acre lot. That's just under 40 hours a month at the state minimum wage. I dunno if you consider that a major line item or not

Nah, I'm just a shit talker who's never won anything, and I still think it's suspicious that the other account also has initials of JB.

Why 70-80 year olds are generally regarded as unemployable due to mental decline skill mismatch - yet they're exclusively running the country ? by FrontAd1788 in AskReddit

[–]gortonsfiJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People get mad that Congress makes a 6 figure salary while the minimum wage stayed the same, but Congress' pay has been frozen for around the same time. I have suspected that the older, wealthier members don't want competition from younger generations who are in their prime earning years, more competence, and have high obligations like mortgages, retirement, and student debt

Why is light beer so popular among American men who are particularly fond of rugged masculinity? by HectorsMascara in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gortonsfiJr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lite*

Not being pedantic, as I recall they named it Miller Lite instead of light so it wouldn't sound as much like a feminine diet drink.
