That’s why she waited until arriving to drink? And then presumably the date lasts a few hours over which she sobers up?

Right, because the food stamps allow them to afford food. They’re saying when people go hungry, that’s when it starts.

Forced without intention should absolutely be a choice because more and more sites integrate it into their search function whether you prefer it or not

Idk if you’re a man or a woman, but that’s a wild take. I’ve definitely heard men nitpick a woman’s appearance, including chipped nail polish, but above all about weight, which is a big part of the original post.

In my experience, women are more likely to talk trash about things easily changed: judging someone for clothes that don’t fit well or makeup that’s poorly applied, whereas men will trash women for body type, weight gain, and aging.

And if you think a man is dangerous to a beautiful woman who rejects them, you don’t want to meet a man who is mad a woman “below” him has rejected him. That can be violent.

You’re not saving money on the gallon of milk if it just goes to waste. And they didn’t say soft serve was higher quality than scoop for a milkshake, they said it was better. I took it to mean the taste and texture is better to them.

I’ve wasted a ton of money on joycons at this point and frankly I don’t mind not getting reimbursed if the fines actually stopped companies from shit practices. I don’t think this is a big enough fine to stop Nintendo from charging a stupid amount for something that is known not to last.

They are, but they’re not typically filmed with the express intent to post online

Right, but most people don’t really know the difference between fit and thin. Thin people can eat poorly and develop diabetes, too.

Your body starts producing sugar for you to eat if you fast too long. That’s why they tell diabetics to eat or snack every 2ish hours. To keep your glucose level

Even if she’s immediately an ex due to her behavior, I think a lot of people would rather their close friends not sleep with an ex. It’s like, if you two fall in love after we’re over, you can’t stop love, but if you’re just getting your rocks off, there are plenty of fish

Ugh we just got cut out of our friend group for very similar situation, except the asshole won. He almost cheated on his then fiance, he did screw over his “best friend” my husband, and when he learned my husband had told me about the emotional affair, he manipulated us and everyone, campaigned against us and eventually got us disliked and dropped by everyone. It really sucked, these were lifelong friends. My only hope is that they eventually all see who he is. I doubt it, as it’s been a year and a half, and his now wife just had a baby. I feel the worst for her in the situation.

I do not think this will be a popular choice on Lemmy, but Ms. Piggy, like no question. She is hilarious and a monster and why is Kermie so goo goo eyes for her, she is ridiculous, and I love her.

Lol I did get it immediately after, but my instant thought was wait, read and lead don’t rhyme?

Wouldn’t that mean no one can visit your home, though? Or if they did, that they’d have to leave their cells/ tablets outside?

In my town the cheapest drinks are at the casino. They want you drunk, and they want your money in the slots

That’s all very lovely but I think you’re missing the point of what I’m trying to say.

I’m not saying anyone is dropping loads of money to impress anyone, I’m saying going out in most any context costs loads of money without even being “impressive”.

Obviously a hike and a picnic is a great date! But it’s reckless and irresponsible as a first date. You could end up murdered. For a first date you’re likely meeting in a public place. Heck, even in your own example your first date was in a bar, which now a days is a dozens of dollars experience for just a few drinks, much more if you’re buying for two or it’s a nice bar, or if there’s any food involved.

I’m saying even for frugal people (hell, my husband and I first got to talking in a thrift store through a mutual friend!) dating is expensive, and it’s not about preferences, it’s just that eating out at all or even just drinks or coffee not at home is very pricey.

It’s so weird I don’t think of my spouse and kids as bull shit, but I guess you and 20 of your peers here do.

If you qualify but feel too guilty, take it and just don’t use it. That way, in an emergency you have it, but you’re not taking anything “away from anybody.”

But also, take it and use it! This country should be providing health care to everyone. Private insurance is a freakin scam

Yeah I mean you pay money and take a little course to become a notary and you have to reup every year (or three years? I can’t remember). The point is you take on legal liability. A notary cannot claim, “i didn’t realize, I didn’t know, I didn’t double check.” Most of the money you pay is in liability insurance in case you screw up. Because if a notary stamps their name to something false, they bear the legal liability which is enough for a notary to not take the risk of flippantly stamping things that are untrue.

You can also legally marry people.

There are also legal limits to how much you can charge (like 10 bucks and document or something. It’s not much). Since each stamp doesn’t earn much, but the liability could cost you a lot, it keeps notaries pretty honest. It’s a decent system.

Mostly only nerds are notaries anyway, so the promising and putting your name to something does some of the heavy lifting by itself

Plus $40 for parking! That’s not included!
