For the record, here's what I would do in that sit if I were so foolish. Drop 8k, pull 10k in 90 and then I don't even care if I never get a dime back.

Sure, sounds like fraud and the perp deserves harshness. Still, there is a solid `tard factor here. I mean: When someone quotes you a risk free rate more than a few points over prime, you are dumb not to question it. When it is like hitting the #@&*ing lottery every quarter, you are...

Knock out the minorities and see what the numbers are. I mean black women have a 50% rate of genital herpes for instance. Cut this to white productive working class (or better) bet the numbers fall.

So this French Major in the UN Peacekeepers get assigned to a post out in the desert in Syria. Upon his arrival, his second in command is showing him around and the major is somewhat taken aback at how desolate the place is. "Where are the restaurants, the cafes, the clubs? Where are the...

You mean changing their names from masculine to feminine? ;)

WTF? No, it's about scammers that try to con people out of their hard earned money. There's a ton of anti-capitalist movies to choose from, but "Death of a Fucking Salesman" (the slang name coined by the actors who starred) isn't one of them, IMO.

I don't think so, at least from what I've read here. The law theoretically says you cannot charge based on age, health, existing conditions, etc. CVS is charging based on habits and activities. Which begs the question, are you a smoker or are you addicted to tobacco? Are you a couch potato...

Not Chicago, but GA. Goblins hold up a mom pushing a stroller with her 1-year old. Since she doesn't have any money, they bust a cap into the kid's skull: Georgia police are going door-to-door in search of two young suspects who are accused of shooting and killing a 1-year-old boy as his...

With any luck, we'll both get this and end up in the same rest home. Somebody will buy us one joke book and we'll spend our days telling eachother the same jokes over and over again. It'll be grand! :D

Curious you forgot the biggest contributor to higher prices of all - insurance. People get to go to the doctor without paying the full price. So what are you going to do when your kid is sick? Treat him at home? Or take him to the doctor for a $5 copay? Then what's the doctor going to do...

Next time The One goes there, we should all call and report the secret service guys. ;)

The nice thing about having a relative with Alzheimer's comes up when you find a present they really, really like. After you give it to them, take it away when they aren't looking. Rewrap and regift!

Geez, the guy who wrote that bit said: LOL! Why not just #@*&ing unplug the webcam when you aren't using it? Hey, and how about shutting your computer off when you are getting undressed and going to bed? I realize this is a shock to many, but stuff don't work when it's unplugged and/or...

WTF would we do that? We can just make up their posts if we wished. Naw, we can write all the Free Thinker (and friends) quotes we want, they are a mindless repetition of the same old drivel. Not only do they fail to contain anything original, they don't even have anything new. No new...

Cuz that would be *racist*! Brooklyn cops should resign en-masse. Heh heh heh. Let them see what life is like with no cops. Or even calmly announce "There will be no cops on the streets of Brooklyn tonight, or on call. Y'all are on your own this evening. Enjoy your time of racist-free...

I expect we're not changing course short of some astonishing things. Used to think that people would figure things out and come to their senses. Then I watched Detroit for 50 years fail to do so. I mean, just read about this loser: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwame_Kilpatrick Yikes...

So Pope Frank is doing a crossword puzzle. He pencils in some letters, gets a puzzled look on his face and looks at a nearby cardinal. "Say, what's a 4 letter word, clue is 'woman', ends in U-N-T?" "That's easy," replies the cardinal. "Aunt." "Oh yeah," says the Pope. "Would you...

Great discussion, guys. Not so sure about that. Ultimately all this paper shuffling has one purpose, to let the US Government buy more stuff and hand out more "money" to people who presumably turn around and buy even more stuff. Presumably, if they accelerate that, then we'll have more...

The real question is, when does the music stop? There are reasonable arguments that suggest Japan could hang on another 10 or even 20 (!) years. When does the fear start? Once it starts and the powers that be fail to contain it, the end will come swiftly. But it is hard to gauge that moment...
