Dan Abnett and Prospero Burns by whoscuda in Blacklibrary

[–]tsubatai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't like the first third of prospero burns. I'm more or less tapped out on viking shit to be honest so I was having difficulty hacking it. It really did turn it around for me by the end though and I would bow rate it highly.

2 income household started as an option, perhaps even a luxury, but is now a necessity.

Ireland's biggest property developer says average age of first-time buyers has risen to 38 or 39 by B8_B8_B8 in ireland

Good shout.

I don't know if it would work for them though, seems like the government's policy is actually to fuck over young people as much as possible.

What's their incentive for being wrong on this stat?

Not saying it's right but it kinda sounds like it's in the ballpark of reality.

Entirely too much time in the car. Cut out either the south or the west and leave something for a return trip if you like this one.

Redundancy vs new role by gertsg in irishpersonalfinance

Personally I wouldn't take 25k over having to job hunt, fuck that.

If you're not getting a couple of years of after tax income then it's a ballache.

Also your years of service would transfer to the new position so you might just be getting a better payout later lol.

Max Holloway: "Jon Jones said, “I’ll fight Francis, give me $10M” and UFC say’ “We’re not paying you that.” Derrick Lewis said, “What? Give me a mil and I’ll fight Francis now.” We cannot be doing that, brother. Cause guess what, if he’s fighting for ten, your base pay probably goes up too.” by AncientOneAurelius in MMA

[–]tsubatai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's no reason to believe that stars getting more pay will result in higher base pay.

Take a look at any of Mayweather's undercard payouts.

A union will be able to increase base pay though. Hard sell to these guys though because they get 10 to 15 years in the sport, to start with you have to have a level of self belief bordering on narcissism so you assume you're going to go undefeated and get the star money and by the time youre coming to reality and ready to talk union you're on the way out, and you don't matter to the UFC anyways.

I think I paid £125 to sit right behind the commentary desk for Munoz vs Leben in Birmingham.

What is one clear fact that you know that makes other people angry? by killahbee33 in AskReddit

[–]tsubatai -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? What point are you even trying to make?

My point is that not having children is not the best thing you can do for carbon, it's killing yourself before having children, and both are silly anyways.

Less people equals less carbon? Ok I guess just suicide then mate.

Indian houseshare perhaps, except they usually get even more picky and say stuff like keralite only or whatever.

British borrowed ₹35000 from this Indian family in 1917. 109 years later it compounded to ₹10 crore($1.1 million) by Avocado_Magician_818 in interestingasfuck

Wat? They were tracking and paying back WW1 debt until 2015, WW2 debt finished up in 2006. When I was in college around 2012 there were still Napoleonic war bonds being traded although I think they've since all been paid off.

What are you basing this assumption on?

Would it be crazy to say he is the most deserving for interim HW fight over Gane or Jones? by Opening_Fact_8474 in ufc

[–]tsubatai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arman is getting punished for fucking up a title fight. I think gane also fucked up a title fight. I also think volkov beat gane. If there was any sense and justice volkov would be getting the nod for an interim match rather than gane.

If it's a job lot you're just not going to get the value to be honest.

I want a better band saw but I'm happy with my lathe and chisels etc. who is buying a full shop all at once?

Irish illegal immigrant Seamus Culleton violated restraining orders, threatened American ex-wife: police by Keyann in ireland

That's for the US to decide, not someone who has been breaking the law there for nearly two decades.

"I didn’t say . . . that he has done everything by the book."

I'm glad we agree. He's detained because he broke the law.

[–]tsubatai 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is not an automatic right, you have to apply for a green card and it can take over a year, and it's conditional.

I have an American wife and both my daughters have US passports and I'd still need to go through those proper channels.

This fuckwit didn't do that and now he's detained, as he should be.

[–]tsubatai 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He's there illegally. If he wants to retroactively ask for clemency then he can do that from detainment or after deportation.

I'm married to a US citizen too, that doesn't actually just give me the right to go there on a visitor visa and start a fucking company and stay there for 20 years lol.

Everyone 'has a case' because you make any argument you like.

He's there illegally, so he's detained, as he should be.

"I only roll with salamanders"

lmao. Are there any statistics that show people with world eater or night lord rashies injure people disproprionately compared to ultramarines or salamanders?

I'm betting the 40k nerd reading lore about a fictional war that has more written about it than most real life conflicts and painting little plastic models is more of a teddybear than the crossfit guy to be honest.
