    International Travel for n00bs

    I was partying with three American guys in Prague one time, and they were telling me and my bud that they were visiting with their dads, who were in Europe on business or some shit. Things just weren't adding up, so we called them on it. They admitted that they were American soldiers on leave...

    The Beer Thread

    Forgot to mention, I picked up a six pack of Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA last night, and had one. It was pretty fucking delicious. Deschutes might be my favorite brewery right now, man they have some good stuff. $21.90 for 6 was a wee bit steep though!

    Fuck you, seriously. I had this exact same fucking argument with you a month ago, and you ran off like a little pussy then, and you WERE claiming that simply being drunk and "coerced" was enough for rape. Hell even Cad called you out on your stupid shit: Another gem from you: And more! So listen...

    Weight Loss Thread

    I'm sure there's others out there, but I've been using the Hacker's Diet website to track my weight, and it does a pretty good job. Really helps you spot trends over time, and gives you a more realistic weight that's a moving average:Fourmilab Don't mind the circa-1995 web design.

    International Travel for n00bs

    Personally I just use local ATM's. You'll get about 2-3% worse of an exchange rate as compared to the going rate on foreign exchange markets, but it's pretty tough to do any better than that. Currency exchange places will absolutely fuck you. They'll say "no fees!" and shit like that, but the...

    Had surgery for a hernia when I was 16, my left nut was the size of a softball on New Year's Day. I'd had it for a couple years at that point, it became an issue when I hit puberty and started growing. It's been 100% since, no issues. Some guys are just born with a congenital defect that can be...

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Because in no other industry am I expected to tip based on "performance". Retail sails is a perfect example. If you're in a high end clothing store buying a suit or some shit, or even a shoe store buying some runners, the salesperson who is helping you can have a massive impact on your...

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Then that's what they'll have to pay. Let the market decide. And again, every other fucking country on the planet outside of the US and Canada (with a couple other exceptions) don't have a tipping system. Yet, bizarrely enough, they manage to pay their workers enough to retain them. And...

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Any retail business employs the same type of workers, on the same sorts of shifts. And have to deal with seasonal ups and downs etc. They don't have to deal with an increase in employment costs though,because they're not fucking over their employees and expecting their customers to top up their...

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Couple reasons. Main one is that it's been scientifically proven in numerous studies that tipping generally doesn't accurately reflect the quality of service. Nor does tipping result in better service. It's a broken system, in that regard. The other main one is that frankly, I think it's fucking...

    Car Buying Help

    I doubt that's still true of turbos. There's a pretty significant proportion of cars on the road with turbos these days, and they're going to keep getting more common due to fuel efficiency regulations. The premium fuel thing is kind of gay, but that's becoming common with other engines as well...

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Okay, thought about it more, and I'm still not quite seeing where you're coming from. If wages are roughly 1/3 of a restaurants costs, which appears to be the norm from a bit of Googling, that would indicate that raising prices across the board by 15% would be nearly enough to raise server wages...

    On the one hand, they make some decent cars that are apparently pretty good reliability wise. Anyone who buys one seems to turn in to an instant Subaru evangelist. On the other hand, lesbians.

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    It's not about "selfish assholes" not tipping so that servers can't "pay their bills". It's about customers being asked to subsidize an entire industry's wages. Only in North America (or in vacation places frequented by North Americans) is this system the norm. Every other continent instead pays...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Isn't that incorrect? My understanding is that, other than maybe the house, a divorcee is only entitle to half of the assets that the couple both earned while they were married. Like for me for example, if my share of the family business is worth 5 million when we get married, if we get divorced...

    I just think it's extremely ironic that Schilling blames "politics" for his tax credit scheme falling apart, when it was politics that even made it possible in the first place, and that's saying nothing of the 75 million or however much money he had previously gotten from the state. Were it not...
