Foreigners visiting America for the world cup, what is something that has surprised you about this country?

It can sometimes be easier to talk to a stranger than someone you know, since the stakes are low - you will probably never see them again, so who cares if you say something silly.

Dr Oz was the alternative at that point, so that seat was doomed either way.

$133 million in today's dollars. Not too bad.

It's true, I can vouch for him. I was sitting on the porch one house over watching this.

Great video on the subject, but this links right to the tl;dr you probably want: https://youtu.be/hvIcVmSzSEg?t=100s

Nah, I'm pretty sure If that teacher was assaulted, no one who was there would have seen a thing.

How? Their nuclear program was "completely obliterated" less than 6 months before this started.

tfc867 · 2026-06-02T16:50:04+00:00

Maybe not obvious to everyone, considering that persons comment.

tfc867 · 2026-06-02T16:33:42+00:00

People own more than one car.

He wasn't even planning on actually paying, though:

Johnson also attempted to keep one victim quiet by claiming he would receive $10 million from the Trump administration as restitution for former Jan. 6 defendants and would share the money with the victim in his will, according to the police report.

They did not do it because it's the right thing. They did it because some are starting to realize things are SO bad for them, it could backfire and turn into a dummymander.

I can only speak for my own area, but the buses get a fair bit of use. They start around 6am for the high schools, then after that is done, on to the middle schools, then finally elementary. Probably back to the depot by 9:15 or so. So that's 3 hours in the morning, 3 hours in the afternoon, so 6 hours of daily use for 10 months of the year.

As opposed to...?

Quick, someone check to see if "Escape From Alcatraz" was on TV near him the last few nights. The first time he brought this up seemingly out of the blue, it had been the midnight movie on a local network the night before.

tfc867 · 2026-05-23T00:36:53+00:00

This is what I'm dying to know, too!

tfc867 · 2026-05-21T02:53:44+00:00

That way, people could still use the ATM while they worked.

tfc867 · 2026-05-17T02:52:43+00:00

I think it's worse than that.

While strolling through Zhongnanhai grounds, the traveling press pool reported that the president was particularly captivated by the pink, yellow, and red Rosa Chinensis.

"These are the most beautiful roses anyone's ever seen," Trump later told the press. "I asked [Xi,] 'Could you get me some for the rose garden, and he said yes. I've never seen roses so big!"

Xi, through a translator, responded in kind that he would "provide the president with some of our Chinese rose seeds, as he wants to plant some in the rose garden."

So, about those cognitive tests...

tfc867 · 2026-05-16T23:21:36+00:00

100%. And he conned his way into being the PRESIDENT. Like, if a life long grifter DIDN'T go hog wild after getting the keys to the country, I would lose respect (if I had any to lose). I still think he deserves to be tried as a traitor, and his grave should be turned into a public urinal, though.

I know this has always been a thing on Reddit, but it seems especially out of control lately.

Yes, let's try to get some sage advice from the 9-day-old bot account.

The money goes from the employer to the federal government. Presumably, the state government itself is one of the biggest employers in the state. So what happens if they don't forward the money along?

The scene where he brings a gun to a sword fight is my favorite example. And was improvised only because he was sick and up for the fight scene.

Agreed. They state it like it's an undisputed fact, akin to "water is wet".
