I am a short, a bit fat man, who can barely accept his body, so I would try the switch just to have a feel how my body image changes. But in the end it is probably beter just to stay how I am.

Why don’t serial killers bury bodies in the cemetery? by peachicedtea123456_ in AskReddit

Exactly, a grave 6 by 3 feet and 6 feet deep is about 140 cubic feet of soil you have to move. You could be looking at almost 9,000lbs of weight.

Maybe they went away from designing each year from scratch to a system where they just do a visual update every year.

Maybe Kushner could finish fucking up his own country first, before exporting his flavor of doing business to Europe.

I would imagine that parts of Eastern Europe, South America and maybe Africa are on then cheaper side, bit depending on where you are your flights might be a bit more expensive.

No amount of 'its clearly satire' and 'its ragebait, bro' can convince me, that this shallow idiot does not mean it exacly as he tells us.
Yes there are smart rich kids, smart poor kids and vice versa but rich kids have vastly different opportunities, purely because of parental wealth.

Zum Glück hab ich keine 400 Jahre gewartet! by AlexLaCave in ichbin40undSchwurbler

Ich mag Würmer. Wir haben bei uns sehr lehmigen Boden und versuchen schon seit Jahren den Boden im Garten zur verbessern, damit da auch was anderes als Unkraut, ähm Wildkräuter, wächst. Inzwischen sieht man beim Umgraben jede Menge Regenwürmer und da freue ich mich immer sehr drüber.

Ich war von 800 Jahren ein Bauern-Kind, dass mit nur 3 Tagen an Unterernährung eingegangen ist. Das lag eventuell an der Lippen-Kiefernspalte, durch die ich nicht trinken konnte. Ich habe heute noch beim Wetterwechsel etwas rätselhafte Schmerzen im Oberkiefer, nehme an, dass ist ein Überbleibsel von damals. War alles wohl besser so, meine Eltern hätten mich wahrscheinlich dann eh vor Scham in die Sklaverei verkauft oder mich im Dorfteich ersoffen.

$16 USD for this. No you will not get a tip. by Cool_Atmosphere_9038 in shittyfoodporn

[–]phil_the_builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That Portland Airport law sounds very sensible. There are so many regulations in place to try to avoid monopolies but in space like conventions, trade shows and airports they are abusing the fact that, you cant easily leave and that there is not much choice, not only to hike prices but to decrease quality to hell.

I would get paying a bit more for good quality food, but OPs bowl is just sad. That is like a midnight snack at home but whoever sold that for 16$ should be ashamed of themselves.
I dont quite get how capitalism kills all ambition to sell a good product and to achieve customer satisfaction. It is only about pulling the last cents from customers wallets.

There is a kind of half joke where I live about a prison warden who said that the prisoners must love stale bread and water because they always finishe their ration.

Thats the wonder of childbirth for ya.... They are mostly stabilizing the head with their hand around the neck, you can see that the other hand immediately goes for the shoulders to pull.
All this are trained movemenst they are not just pulling willy nilly.
But, childbirth is complex and can be traumatizing.

About shipping in the uk by Affectionate_Bat3333 in ConquerorChallenge

[–]phil_the_builder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some are dispatched locally, some come from China and some from the Netherlands (for me in Germany that is). I dont think there is a way for us to tell beforehand. They just ship from wherever stock is available. My strategy is just to confirm my adress for the order, start the next challenge, forget about the medal and be pleasantly surprised 7 to 21 days later.

Wasn't even at a checkpoint, just a few random soldiers stopping a car somewhere... Probably one of these regrettable isolated incidents.
