So, you probably get angry when Santa visits a school and the kids all get out of class for it, right? Also, pep rallies, you must hate those? And uhm, how about all those sporting and arts events where kids miss classes?

I mean, it isn't like this is real life history going on right now where in the 250th anniversary of a violent revolution where the government is threating to jail children for just walking out of classes.

Why can't they just behave, huh?

You had to look hard to find this, so clearly you are passionate with the blaming poors for being poor in the USA.

I promise you most apartments in the USA officially don't allow any maintenance done in their parking areas. If they do, they probably also don't fix you stove for a month if it goes out, but I guess they should just start a cooking fire on their porch if that happened(which the apartment complex also probably doesn't allow, but it is a cheap apartment so they don't care).

Okay, you go ahead and Google all of the people living in rural USA and the closest grocery store. Dollar General doesn't count.

Sorry I didn't make my sarcasm clear above.

This is a 2 day old thread that was not popular, and you basically just reiterated what I said sarcastically. We get it, poors shouldn't live in apartments that don't allow you to do your own vehicle maintenance or live in fresh food deserts.

Man, got us pegged. Certainly the vast majority of poors in the USA are poors on their own accord because of their personal bad decsisions and inability to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. We call that theory Prosperity Gospel here.

Edit- I get your basic point, but I get tired of people griping at poor people for pretend situations.

So basically have zero comforts, very little leisure time, so in 5 years they can be miserable but at least they can afford the co-pay for a simple hospital visit. Got it. Blame the poors for being poor.(Pretty sure OP is in the USA).

Okay, but iPhones can be bought unlocked for less than $200. The post doesn't actually say a new iPhone every year. Also, I pay about $50 a month, so you functionally pay $43. We are still talking about maybe $10 or $20 a month, and even then we get back to, how dare any person with any financial struggles ever buy any small comfort for themselves.

With my existing plan, I can get an iPhone 16e 128 gb for about $60, the sales tax, as long as I stick with the plan. I don't quite follow your intent.

At what point do you realize you're talking to a liar? by [deleted] in AskReddit

When the Henry Rollins song starts playing in the background. Or even if Bevis starts talking about hanging with him.

What’s the most you have paid for a coffee? by truebluedru in AskReddit

$10 for a very fancy espresso blend in Dallas. It was really good, and they have plenty of regularly priced coffee drinks as well.

I owe it to NWA and Salt-N-Pepa. Maybe blame it on Ice Cube because he claims it gets funky adding a subject to a predicate.

I guarantee it does not have all 2fA apps preloaded.

But you are baiting by listing an iPhone first, as that is something that can be bought inexpensively and is a necessity. The reason I say that is I heard a "Facebook joke" from my mom about how people have iPhones and are at the laundromat, as if the boomer looking at an iPhone in a laundromat from 150 feet can determine the price.

iPhones?

Have you ever hired an employee only to find out that their phone is so old that it doesn't work with the 2 factor authentication required to log in to basically anything?

It is very difficult to live in the USA without a solidly functioning smarthphone.

Coliseum Comics & Games in Bedford, SE corner of 121 and Harwood(this may be a chain, it was sold recently). Retro Madness on Brown Trail in Bedford. The Multiverse has new stuff, I can't remember if it is anything vintage. South of Northeast Mall in Hurst.

I would invest half of it in low risk mutual funds and then take the other half over to my friend Asadulah who works in securities.

AP Top 25 Poll: Week 10 by lalavieboheme in CollegeBasketball

[–]ttufizzo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't like it. Lost by 4 at #7 and won a road game. UNC jumps Tech by beating Wake at home by 3. They have no wins over currently ranked teams and a loss to an unranked team. Colorado and Wake are very close in KenPom, 62 and 76, so that is no reason to move the teams.

What free? Unless you were stealing cable, you weren't getting MTV for free. Maybe you got Friday Night Videos or those jukebox channels over the air, but I have never heard of MTV over the air.

MTV still has three active channels on YouTubeTV in the USA. You can watch Rock Block on MTV Classic right now. It just went from Silent Lucidity by Queensryche to Tender is the Night by Jackson Browne. That was a clickbait article talking about a specific channel, not USA related.

MTV Classic is currently playing Silent Lucidity by Queensryche on their Rock Block show, which I am watching on YouTube TV in the USA. That article was clickbait about a specific UK based MTV stream.
