I’m on their site and 15 ct not inflated is only $1.49 before a small discount.

The price of those balloons includes helium and the labor to fill them. It’s not entirely unreasonable.

Possible plot point to align with the impending zombie apocalypse?

This guy has just, out in the open, bought himself into a position of power. This is the type of shit you see in a movie. Next thing you know, he’ll be scowling at a local detective reminding him of his diplomatic immunity.

I once had a co-worker like this named Andrew. One morning, while he scrambled to fill any moments of silence, I told him “Andrew, silence is ok sometimes” and went back to my work. He was significantly less annoying to work with afterwards.

I probably came off as a bit of a dick, though it wasn’t my intention.

An actor saying the N word and the show being offensive are not anyhow related.

The show is certainly reflective of its time. If someone is offended by it, I won’t tell them that they’re wrong, but I don’t see it as offensive.

“Just as the founding fathers would have wanted” - Some gun nut probably.

Another soulless billionaire kisses the ring.

I hate how much I laughed at this. I’m never growing up.

How many people on LinkedIn absolutely loved that? lol

Man, stock buybacks are such a scam and should go back to being illegal. It’s just market manipulation and saps resources away from everything else, especially wages.

The problem is that half of the state is probably cheering the move,

My wife is so excited for the snack wrap to come back.

It’s his kid, man. I can’t blame him.

I don’t think you understand how determined the buyers are once they’ve been convinced by the scammer. I used to work for a major retailer that had signs at the register AND messages that the customer had to accept on the signature pad confirming they didn’t believe they were being scammed before going through with the purchase.

Additionally, my team was instructed to call me over any time they had a customer who they felt was being scammed to try to talk to them. Sometimes, I was successful, but other times I wasn’t. There is still one guy who goes in weekly to buy $500 of various gift cards for his overseas “girlfriend” on WhatsApp. I tried talking to him multiple times and he became increasingly angry at the conversation. I just had to accept I couldn’t help him.

There’s also a good chance many or all of the hostages are dead.

I think this encapsulates NYC to perfection

I thought you need $401k to retire.
