Minimum Wage Increases, Wages, and Low-Wage Employment: Evidence from Seattle There are always unintended consequences to screwing with the markets.

Ahem. This isn't the faggotry football thread.

If you haven't noticed, Lanx looks at everything in the world in terms of racial stereotypes.

Yeah, peanut butter is better than cheese because the mice like it more and they have to lick it off. The other thing I would say is to put the trap exactly where you saw the mouse because the make little trails and run in the same place next time. The poison traps have never worked for me but...

If you chop it off every day it will die, especially if you get it when it's very small. I think the theory is sound, but I am skeptical that it works that well in practice.

No it's not. It's alive. Everything is going to be fine. #thisisfine

Turns out my phone was not dead after all, just frozen up hard or something. Plugged it in to the charger and held the power button down for 30 seconds and the thing booted up. I don't know if that's something that's going to keep happening but I once again have hope that I can keep this phone...

I assumed that Nikki had put some kind of remote kill switch on Emmet's car to get it to stop in at a spot with no cell coverage where she could drive up dramatically.

Yeah, the people who keep citing his stats from last year as proof that this is about the protest obviously didn't watch the games last year. He looked decent in the first half, then fell apart in the second, missing easy throws by a mile. He can perform pretty well as long as he just has to...

I realize that we're not serious here but in the name of accuracy, the Angus would be the better one. Jersey and Holstein are both dairy cows. They get made into hamburger and "steak" at places like taco bell.

Every time I see one of those things I have a fantasy about cooking pancakes outdoors for 50 people but since that isn't a situation I tend to find myself in, I haven't bought one.

I think my 6P died yesterday. Worked fine all day, battery died at about 8PM which is not unusual, but I've had it on 4 different chargers now and it just won't charge. Tried cleaning out the plug but it still won't charge.

He had not only shut off all the breakers but actually pulled them all out of the panel. That would shut off the water heater, furnace, and everything else that is properly wired. His neighbors probably tapped off of his service to power their marijuana grow lights or something.

I just got into the stuff about people who don't have experience with institutions today. He really goes deep with it but I was never bored at all. Very well done and an idea I have never heard discussed before.

Listened to the first two episodes based on your recommendation and so far so good. A person might even call it a Hardcore History rip-off but since HH comes out so rarely there's plenty of room for both. Do you know where the name "MartyrMade" comes from? From what I've heard so far it's...

I usually go to The Verge. I have gotten into that cycle before with my old LG phone. I swear when you get a warranty replacement they just send you someone else's broken phone that they put a bandaid on.

My dentist in California was this way. He was a pudgy middle aged guy with a moustache but the other 6 people in the office (receptionist, secretary, and all of the hygienists) were all hot blondes. I don't know how you do that.

I haven't seen this meme in a long time but....

FWIW, I tried the sodium citrate mac and cheese in the crockpot thing and it turned out well. It was only in the crockpot on warm for about 2 hours but it wasn't discernibly mushier than when I finished cooking it. I had intended to undercook the pasta and then didn't take it out quick enough...

You really can't go wrong with Weber. Everything they make is top quality.

Maybe it's because I'm an American but this is what I have been hoping for all along. I thought it was impossible for Elizabeth but they have shown her softening so it could happen, especially if they make it a position where she truly has to choose between her country and her family. I think...

I don't know why but I haven't hung in with Veep this season. Never hated an episode, but there are 3 unwatched on my DVR and I just don't have the urge to watch them. I've been busy so some other TV is slipping through the cracks but in the past I would have found the time to watch Veep and...

Action has never been what made this show good. It's a character study about a family in a particular situation where there are a ton of unique moral conundrums and how that affects their mental health and relationships. That is what the show is and always has been about with the cold war as a...

I don't know anything about credit score massaging and I don't borrow money so I don't give a shit about my credit score but credit card companies make money on every purchase you make with the card. If you never pay a cent of interest they still make money on you and I would bet they would...

I really liked this week's episode and I can't wait for the finale. Nikki Swango is the best character of this season and Varga is the second best so it is fun that they're facing off for the finale. This has been the weirdest season of a very weird show and it's not as good as Season 2 but I'm...

I lived a block away from one when I was in California. They are great.

I would eat it, but I would be thinking that the person who bought it should spend their money more wisely. Papa Murphy's?

Chicken with Pesto, Alfredo, and especially fucking barbecue sauce is not fucking pizza. It tastes fine but if you tell me we're having pizza and serve that shit, I'm not going to be happy. Think of a new name for it.

Is anybody watching "The Son"? I am DVRing it because I love westerns but haven't watched any of it yet.

The Numbers Don’t Lie: Self-Driving Cars Are Getting Good, Fast Interesting article but the most telling thing for me is the number of miles driven by the various companies. If you listen to PR you would think that several companies are on par with Google on autonomous cars but the miles...

It's very possible. I don't know what it says about me but this is my 456th post in the Fast Food thread.

One time at In-N-Out I was waiting in the drive through for a long time and watching this very pregnant girl making like 8 hamburgers at a time and her belly was just resting on the edge of the counter, dragging back and forth while she worked and her shirt had mustard and ketchup and mayo all...

Half a pound of bacon is a very good breakfast. I do it fairly often.

Nothing makes a thread unreadable faster than a couple people deciding they don't like the show anymore and moaning about it week after week. If you don't like the show, stop watching it. There's plenty of other TV to watch.

That is a mistake that no one who has eaten both places could ever make.

I had a similar problem with my old Oldsmobile and it turned out to be an intermittent problem with the ignition switch. Took the mechanics months to figure it out with multiple wrong fixes along the way. Bad ground is also a good thing to look at with any weird electrical issue.

Lot of marketing victims in this thread.

That reminds me of a ramen/sushi joint I used to go to in the bay area. They had these little individually wrapped cheesecakes that were amazing. They tasted like cheesecake but they were sort of light and fluffy. Never seen anything like it anywhere else.

Yeah, a lot of the things that happen in this show are extremely improbable but if you're concerned about that you're totally missing the point of the show and should probably watch some Law and Order instead.
