  1. So, you raise prices at home so consumers are squeezed, you kick over-seas sales in the balls, and then you cross your fingers that domestic sales can pick up the slack in already over-extended households. Seems like a great strategy.
  2. Kamala had great vibes.
  3. Nice alabama graphic.
  4. It's hardly traditional, but I got gifted one of those super hot sauces that's like, turbo hot straight to pain a few years back for Christmas. Whenever my chili doesn't come out quite as hot as I'd like, I add a few drops of this stuff and let it simmer another 15 minutes, then taste test. It's a quick, easy cheat to get the heat the way I want in the chili. It doesn't take much to make a big difference. The first time I tried this I just put in like 2 tablespoons of the stuff in what was probably a couple of gallons of chili, easily. I won't go so far to say it was "inedible" but eating all of that over the course of a week definitely was work more than pleasure.
  5. I would love for my lawn to go away and for me to just gravel over it. Save me thousands of dollars a year.
  6. Nah. I think they actively hate way less than 90%. Like, 70% tops.
  7. I don't think it's hostile nearly as much as it's just completely ambivalent and indifferent to about 90% of Americans.
  8. I meant the mountains, my man. The towns/stops are truly dreadful. But the mountains are pretty, especially if you're usually driving from Houston to anywhere.
  9. Nothing. I don't even know who the fuck that guy is/was...related to Tony Robbins?
  10. Youre right, Urban Meyer and Art Briles won a lot of games.
  11. There are plenty of luxury buses out there. I've never been on one, and have no idea if they travel to El Paso. But they exist. Tornados seem not bad. I'd rather read a book all day and look out the window than drive myself. YMMV. Well, for starter's, he's in Austin. It says it's 9 hours on the one bus site I looked up.
  12. FWIW, we made the drive from Houston this summer for a road trip to California. Not sure if you've ever made it before, but I hadn't. At least big chunks of it are scenic. I'd absolutely take a bus.
  13. Clearly you're not reading that the way I read it. To me he said normally he doesn't like to complain normally, but this past week he felt like he needed because it was so fucking poor.
  14. That's better. So you want 90k and a year to get things up and running. So by the beginning of 2027 it would be reasonable to expect it to be generating 9-10k a month in...lets say revenue, not profit. Not sure what ongoing overhead costs. Something like that. Company structure of....S-corp LLC with pass through distributions? That sorta thing?
  15. I think you're misunderstanding what some folks are asking. Slacks and I don't know shit about rack storage, etc. While I get the concept of "You can do whatever you want with it" our caveman brains are asking about a potential range on ROI. That's about as far as I can go. I don't have some creative concept of what to do with the computing power in my back pocket gathering dust because I didn't have an opportunity like this until now, etc.
  16. Well, what are you looking to raise, how many partners are you looking for, and what kind of MoM or YoY return would folks be looking at?
  17. I’m pissed the they the second sentence out of sark’s mouth at the postgame, after “really happy for the win and our team” wasn’t “that was the worse officiating I’ve ever seen.”
  18. Here’s the site: https://www.honestmath.com/learn/mcanalysis
  19. I know it might not exist, but I have to think you’re going to have 5-10k a month in social security payments if that’s still around once you hit 65 or whatever age. there’s a free Monte Carlo site I use that I can dig up, and I estimate 80% or my retirement income being taxable, and I budget 15k a month, and it estimates In still most likely to grow our egg even retiring at 55 with 5 million.
  20. This is a board of degenerates, but I'm not sure even we want to read "Brisket verily admitted that he'd crawl through broken glass to let Susanna Hoffs shit in his mouth, as long as her last meal was Popeye's." But now they're going to read it anyway.
  21. Fucking been there done that.
  22. Good for y'all. I want to pull the plug ASAP and drink myself to an early grave like nature intended.
  23. Your wife trying to kill you or something? You need to do the math and get over it. With what you’ve said you have, go should be able to retire easily at 55, even living in Cali? You don’t have the college money set aside or something? I’m eyeballing HS graduation. Of course a lot has to go right in the next 10 years…
  24. I believe it was called The Social. It had the rest rooms with windows at eye level that looked at into the bar. Fucking no one is going to Nadine's. That pace has failed as Kobain's, Darwin's, and at least 2 other name's. It's got bad parking, I just don't see how it's ever going to succeed. I am amazed Porch Swing is still in business. It's looking pretty ragged these days.
  25. You should stop doing that.
