Yeah who needs social skills these days anyways

Thanks for the answer, I understand. Personally I feel like it shouldn’t be taxable, in a similar way the Germany guy explains it. There is no tipping culture where I live though.

I’m with the infrastructure answer too. It really is too broad but in short, anything that kinda stumps you on your tracks once it fails. Just now for some reason I no longer have hot water, very annoying.

Okay Non American trying to make sense of this: So you guys had to pay tax on income from tips?

No I didn’t know

…why?

There’s a chemical brothers song that, while not addressing your question straightforwardly, proves that salmon can have meaningful social interactions with humans. I think.

I don’t understand it. I don’t use Twitter or xitter, i don’t know Grok, I don’t understand why the guy is asking for context, I just don’t know anything.

Is it really an addiction? What happens to you if you don’t have any money to spend on this? Or, say, for some reason there are no more gambling opportunities or sex workers in your area?

Problem is only you can redeem yourself. This feels a bit pointless to me, in particular since it appears you’re unable to draw boundaries, which means you are leaving yourself open to be taken advantage of, which in turn just perpetuates unfairness.

6 year old you isn’t you anymore. I don’t know what you did, maybe you killed someone, but my point still stands all the same.

Are you kidding me? You telling me now the trend will be watching a movie in theaters with the seats in front of you lit up with phone screens most of the time?

Sure it is. But I feel like you never used Photoshop. It sucks up all the RAM. It’s more RAM intensive than any 3D software or browser I’ve ever used. (That is, except for Substance Painter, which is also in the Adobe family now unfortunately)

What!? I think I’ve done a loop at least once when missing the exit (to catch it properly in the second attempt).

Calm down. Have a cup of tea. There’s this type I recommend, I think you’ll love, it’s called Earl Grey

Why all those noes? What’s wrong?

No… I read your quote straight through and without issues. I had to re-read many of the sentences in OP’s quote and put effort to make sense out of them. Your quote feels normal, with flourishes, but normal. OP’s quote doesn’t. For me there is no comparison.

I would argue Sherlock Holmes, Verne, and Monte Cristo (which I really like) read nothing like the slob OP posted. (I’ve never read Oliver Twist though).

I started reading, I drifted away at about the mud part so I restarted. This is really not my cuppa tea when it comes to text. On the second run I did better but no, I didn’t manage to visualize everything. The Megalosaurus sentence doesn’t make much sense to me. The text is convoluted, boring, and depressing but yes I guess I see the shitty street, the animals, the people -a crowd-, the miserable weather.

I’m aware of more information I’m not really processing but I’m just too annoyed at the text to apply the necessary brainpower required to digest it. It’s almost 2 AM and I’m tired.

Then I make it to the end and realize it’s Dickens, and that explains everything. I never liked his writing. Good night.

Wow thanks for going the extra mile for the info!

Whereabouts in the world?
