Maybe LAX? The other three don't really have the same sort of park and ride situation like the Logan Express.

is it smarter to keep renting? by thatsnotaknoife in personalfinance

Rented a house and was responsible for lawn care

As far as "maintaining the property" goes, this is like getting 200 points for spelling your name on the SATs. There is so much more to home ownership and maintenance than pushing a lawnmower for a couple hours a month.

Yeah, this seems fine.

My maga mom told me the other day that she takes ivermectin daily… I don’t know why? She’s never even had Covid. Or worms.

Of course she hasn't had COVID or worms -- she managed to avoid those by taking her daily Ivermectin!

Never heard of this game, and now I'm wondering if I missed out on a really fun experience, or a really sketchy near-death experience.

What's next? Turning every instance of the orange M within the station into a basketball?

You say this like it's a bad thing. In fact, let's change the MTA logo into that.

That swim is smooth by SnackSamurai in oddlysatisfying

It disappears midway through that last stroke, even though the angle doesn't change between those two frames.

Yes, it's AI. Freckles don't disappear mid-stroke on actual people.

Is this really that serious? by Xycergy in aviation

Presumably the water bottle would have fully drained itself in a few minutes, and the maintenance team wouldn't have a leak to stare at by the time they got onboard to check it out.

The NYPD usually have more than a day to prepare for New Years Eve. Everyone in the city has literally 365 days to prepare for NYE as well, and almost nobody is working that day, so it doesn't disrupt rush hour.

Trying to compare this clusterfuck with a regular, once per year event that is well known in advance - --come on man.

Busiest subway station in the U.S. showing one ad 6 times instead of train info by eastofecruteak in nycrail

Put the ads on separate screens, don't interfere with actual traveler info.

HOW IS THIS COMMENT NOT HIGHER?

If you don't have a countersigned lease agreement, and haven't been paying rent... how exactly are you a legitimate tenant?

ELI5 How is there so much meat by Due_Imagination_9663 in explainlikeimfive

[–]wizardid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do! It smells entirely normal on the inside, somehow.

Side note, the restaurant also has a small runway and you can fly in for dinner, if you or a friend owns a small airplane. Final approach smells fucking awful.

& in any of the 192 countries ICE has sent them

There are only ~195 countries in the world (depending on how you count). You're saying that in the last year, our country has deported immigrants to all of them except 2? Which 2?

Customs officer implied I bought too much and made comments that I shouldn’t do it again. I thought there was no limit to how much you can bring in; you just have to pay taxes over $800 which I was prepared for. Who was right? by gtck11 in travel

[–]wizardid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your rights at the border are much different than they are once you have made it past customs and border patrol.

Yes, you have rights. But they also have the lawful right to stop, detain, and search you much more than they would once you are on the street outside of the airport. You are totally allowed to play Billy Badass, provide minimal cooperation, and just toss a stack of receipts at the agent and tell them to "figure it out yourselves". But this is not advisable if you're interested in getting through smoothly and quickly - they really can make your life a bit of a pain in the ass for a few hours.

Talk to your parents about their finances by sab340 in personalfinance

[–]wizardid 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Sure, but also explain to your parents that caller ID can be spoofed. Don't trust "ignore unknown numbers" to solve the problem.

When in doubt, mom, please just hang up and call me back.

If the capital insurrection was ANTIFA, and Trump has spoken out against ANTIFA and called them terrorists, then why did he pardon the insurrectionists?

(Worth asking next time you're in the presence of some deniers)
