  • I'm an architect

  • Grits

    Also cornbread and corndog

    Probably a lot of things with corn

  • I'll take just that cookie (You want the whole cookie)

    And

    I'll take just a bit of that cookie (You want a piece of the cookie)

    I made it just barely to the concert (Implies you were almost late)

    And

    I made it just to the concert (Implies you had something else to go to but you just went to the concert)

  • A real ID does not mean US citizen. Non-US citizens can receive a real ID. It just proves you are a lawful resident in the US.

    Same for drivers license and ID card.

    A birth certificate does no good on it's own. And verifying a birth certificate is another can of worms. If it can only be the official government issued one? Then you get into the whole birth right citizen thing. You can easily be a US citizen without being born in US.

    Passport would be the closest thing to a true "Citizen ID". US Nationals can receive a US passport without being citizens.

    Citizenship certificates would fix the birth certificate problem of US citizens being born outside of the states. However they cost 1k+. Maybe they can make them cheaper or hand them out?

    It's laughable how bad identification is in the US. We still use social security numbers.

    I wouldn't be against Voting IDs if everyone was issued one for free and replacements were easy and inexpensive to obtain.

  • Perfection is the enemy of progress

  • You remember that one time you walked your dog into that real nice gas station bathroom?

    It's not just about dirt

  • Lawn darts were so cool

  • A- 10,000 dollar car

    B- 50,000 dollar car

    Intrest is 5-15% (depending on credit score)

    6 years loan

    Interest paid over loan:

    5% A- $1,595 B- $7,977

    15% A- $5,224 B- $26,122

    If the dealership sells a 50k car they can get 6.5k-21k more money than if they sell a 10k car.

    They want to sell you the most expensive car they can

    So even if they could sell you the "cheap" Chinese EVs they would make less profit

    This is just one reason. Sales margin is another. When you're a Ford dealership and get special treatment from Ford you have higher profit margins. If you just flip a Chinese EV with no special treatment you have lower margins.

    If there was a solid 10k car available less people would buy the 50k car (average cost of a new car today)

    Inexpensive cars on the US market is not good for dealerships in anyway

  • The picture in the meme is probably added

    The car in the picture is probably not theirs

    Someone caring enough to post a picture with their review and had their car parked in front of the store. You'd be lucky to read Chillis.

  • Anyone arguing that anything that happened on a previous day is relevant

    This could make it premeditated

    Ice sees gun, knows they could push a future altercation

    Imagine if Pretti didn't have a gun. Ice tackles unarmed guy and shoots him? Other than AI unbelievers it would be a hard sell.

  • We should push for a UBMI

    Universal Bare Minimum Income

    "Basic" is debatable

    Hard to argue everyone needs the bare minimum

    Maybe they aren't going to be able to buy their art supplies at first. But it's definitely a start.

    Wonderful thing about art is that multiple people can share the same crayon box

  • It's the whole "Is Pepsi fine?" Thing.

    You ask if they have coke and they will say "is Pepsi fine?" Then you can say "Yes I'll take a Sprite" and get Starry.

    Like you can't order a sprite without saying sprite. You cannot be like "I'll take a soda" and expect sprite. Same with saying coke. You have to elaborate.

    You could ask for a "coke" and accept any soda. But you're not really calling what they are giving you coke. You just wanted any soda.

  • These are the EVA birkenstock sandals

    They ended up ripping through and not really usable anymore because the whole front flops.

  • Saying nature intended anything is naive

    Chimpanzees have gang wars and eat each other. Doesn't make it right.

  • Parts yes. Cars no.

    It is in Ford's best interest to keep other forgien cars out of the US. If Americans were really free to shop forgien cars the US car companies would all go under.

    Trump will keep out "bad forgien cars"

    Tairiffs are just a cost they pass down to consumers when there are no other options for the consumer other than domestic cars built with tariffed parts.

    They know what they are doing.

  • Sounds like anendophasia

    It is not considered a disorder

    If we were to make a computer to "read our minds" it would pick up on our internal dialog which people with anendophasia do not have.

    People with anendophasia are not dumb. They just think different.

    Like imagine a person that was born deaf. They can't have a verbal dialog in their heads. They could imagine sign language, images, or words. But just because they were born deaf doesn't mean their IQ is low. They just think different.

  • I was not thanked for my attention in this matter

  • Plumber "hot water heater"

    Accountant ".02 cents"

  • Sorry it is called Curve Grading.

    Curve Grading

    Many ways to do it. But that example where the best student scored a 60%. Everyone would get +40%. That's a Standard Curve method.

    Personally, they didn't curve a lot of grades when I was in high school. It was more a college thing. A hard test that pushes the limit of your knowledge without being unfair.

    But yes a grade can change afterwards for whatever reason the teacher wants. They could just throw on 10% if they felt generous. Definitely apparent when it's like a writing assignment without clear right or whole answers like math.
