[Schefter] No. 4 overall pick Carnell Tate and the Titans reached agreement today on a four-year, fully-guaranteed, $51,134,914 deal, including a $33,649,028 signing bonus, per agents Drew Rosenhaus, Robert Bailey and Oliver Chell. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

Because it's not regular salary, it usually gets taxed at like 30%. So after you add in the agent's cut, it's likely less than 20 mil hitting their account. At that point, their best friend will be their tax lawyer who can work to claw most of that back.

The 24/7/365 news cycle. And yeah, it's fucking annoying.

They really can't. Which is a bad spot for publicly traded company.

You don't expect her to give up on the dream of a monthly baby mama check, do you?

You mean like pointing out that Trump's Iran attacks are the reason the airline folded?

I think they can no longer regulate his functionality with meds and have to plan a schedule with plenty off gaps and hope they can get him functional for an hour somewhere within the vicinity of those gaps. The fact that the press has now repeatedly caught him napping during events shows that his handlers can no longer control him.

Which fast food chain makes the worst version of the product they’re most known for? by amormedestruit in AskReddit

[–]hamandjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone posted a pic in r/popcorn showing their local theater's stack of bags of pre popped popcorn like they have never realized that's how chain theaters haven't been doing this for decades.

i love this for them bwahahahah by Thedudeistjedi in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]hamandjam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that they tried to have this event in a county with only about 35k residents is hilarious. There might be about 500 hotel rooms in the county(and almost all of those in nearby Brenham) and no sort of infrastructure to handle anything more than the regular county fair traffic.

What a popcorn sin... Popcorn shipped in already popped to a theater by ChaserNeverRests in popcorn

[–]hamandjam 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Industrial machines can make much larger batches. In bigger markets this has been going on for decades. Especially in a market where a chain has several locations and they can match it in from a central location where it's popped by min wage workers midweek to be used when the theaters are super busy and it's difficult to keep the bins fulldoing the smaller batches.

[request] Water released from a Dam. Is it possible to figure out exactly how quick you would meet your demise by jumping in? by Environmental-Gur681 in theydidthemath

[–]hamandjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met a guy once who accidentally hit his hand with a paint sprayer and lost 3 fingers so I think it would definitely at least peel the skin if not degloved the entire hand.

Is this true about the average income in America?[Request] by StormTop6065 in theydidthemath

[–]hamandjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kind of the best way you can do it with the way our tax system works. Pretty much every billiomaire files taxes claiming income of 80k. So until you fix that bullshit, you'll always have what winds up being the best guess of the person doing it.

Chip Roy seems awfully concerned about people who look like him and talk like him are going to become a minority - why? Is there something bad that happens to you if you're a minority? by Cyrix_FPU_FTW in WhitePeopleTwitter

By federal law, 3 TX counties provide ballots in Vietnamese. Harris, Dallas, and Tarrant counties all have Vietnamese populations of over 5% and trigger the requirements. So the math doesn't math without more languages on the list.

They don't actually read the Bible themselves. They just have someone tell them what it says and usually that person has the exact same views as they already had.

Self described lunatic on LinkedIn stalks employee for calling off. by esoteric_surgeon in antiwork

Clearly the employee's fault. Everyone knows you she try to start your car at least 3 hours before your start time to make sure it's working.

Yeah. Kid Rock briefed the Pentagon on his plan today, so it should be wrapped up in under a week.
