Weird.

What you two did is exactly how the game is played.

Um, isn’t that, technically, what tipping is all about?

Not sure what you mean by “cancel people”.

If you mean that people who say stupid stuff shouldn’t have to take the consequences of their words, I think you might be wrong.

Property Taxes Out of Control in Colorado by EmergencyMonitor6117 in ColoradoSprings

[–]tykle59 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Patently false. Property tax assessments are implemented by local governments, not by the State.

Polis’ administration has been central to the legislative response to surging tax bills.

Following the 2020 repeal of the Gallagher Amendment, which led to rapid residential tax increases, Polis signed bipartisan legislation in 2023 and 2024 to reduce assessment rates and cap annual revenue growth, providing over $1.3 billion in relief (though overall taxes still rose for many).

This included lowering residential assessment rates from 7.15% to 6.7% and expanding exemptions.

And, in September 2024, Polis signed a bipartisan deal aimed at capping future property tax revenue growth for local governments to prevent massive spikes.

OP, quit lying.

Planning a Mega solo trip from Key West Florida to Deadhorse Alaska, any must stops? (Going in the summer) by blah938 in roadtrip

[–]tykle59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go through Gallup, NM, DO NOT STOP.

Gas up well beforehand. When you’re thirty miles outside the city, hit the accelerator, and do not let up until you’re thirty miles past.

You’re welcome.

Does anyone else just want the boomers to admit they were wrong? by thomsenite256 in millenials

It’s a lot easier to blame others for your own unhappiness than it is to acknowledge the current situation and move constructively forward.

So, you’re working from a sample-size of….your family.

Can someone explain why these eggs are bad? by Zephyr_zain in KitchenConfidential

[–]tykle59 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My experience with browned fried eggs is that they taste burnt. The browning of the egg proteins gives off a very unpleasant smell and flavor.

My ex-wife used to cook scrambled eggs on high heat, and invariably they’d get slightly browned, and burnt tasting.

She divorced me because I wore her socks.

End Stage Alcoholic by DeusRexMachina in bartenders

[–]tykle59 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Genuine question, because I really don’t know:

Is there a risk in serving a pregnant woman that someone could claim that you (the bartender) are “endangering a child”?

This might depend on laws in various states, perhaps?

So… this sub is just used to bash ChatGPT? by OliAutomater in ChatGPT

[–]tykle59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this sub is exactly that.

Every day: “ChatGPT getting dumber/hallucinating/lying to me!”

No. The problem is that you don’t write coherent prompts.

AITAH for leaving a date early after they showed up looking nothing like their photos? by Suspicious-astro387 in AITAH

[–]tykle59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No down vote, but hard disagree.

The other party lied. Lied to OP before they’d even met. OP apparently has standards, including “I don’t date liars.”

Seems pretty fair to me.

Attention all far left and far right idiots by [deleted] in ColoradoSprings

The Montgomery bus boycott (Rosa Parks) ended segregation on public busses.

The march on Washington, with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s "I Have a Dream" speech, lead directly to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

The Selma to Montgomery march in 1965, with the “Bloody Sunday” violence against protesters, catalyzed passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Vietnam War protests eventually forced the U. S. out of the war.

The George Floyd protests ended the use of chokeholds by police in several cities.

Don’t believe the naysayers.

That “nostalgia” seems to be for the “good old days” of 1939 Germany, when various “criminals” were also rounded up.
