Look at fucking conservative bootstrapping Mist over here.

These are the people that I am most concerned about since it is always the lowest rung that gets hit the worst in recessions. How can we say that we are different than the Left if we ignore and/or exacerbate the very things that can assist them in making their lives, and by extension their...

They seem like starter homes to you because that is what you have seen as the quaint little houses for a new couple that has 1 kid or is trying since you have been old enough to appreciate the market. This is almost exactly the same house that I grew up in (same neighborhood) with parents, a...

I think the decline is coming because builders are building the type of houses that people could/would buy when money was cheap but now with the price of everything going up people are going to choose houses that they need, not that they want. So builders who have houses with tons of bonus...

Damn, I didn't realize the insanity had reached that far out. Those are all too big to be true starter homes; it is what the current generation has been conditioned on as a starter home. In truth those prices say to me that Dallas and its suburbs are a terrible place to have a starter home...

That's why I said 15%; I don't think we need high unemployment to get this decline because the meteoric COVID rise had no basis outside low rates and those are gone. My house 'value' went up roughly 33% for no reason and now that rates have more than doubled the priced in my neighborhood are...

It should be equal to the COVID rise, but I'm going with 15% (should be 25%).

Why does everyone think that starter homes are in the middle of well established, already costly suburbs? If you are looking for a starter home in North Dallas then you are already out to Melissa or Anna and commuting in. That's like looking for a 'starter home' in the Woodlands north of Houston.

Boston has never improved a single thing....unless that thing was leaving Boston. Instant improvement.

No dice, I'm going to shit all over every other team until we start winning again.

@Foggy, I know you are having a great time right now and are probably drunk; but I need you to help me. How do I handle having a terrible team as my Alma mater? You've handled it with such grace this past decade that I am really counting on you to show me the ropes.

Bro, there is no talent on this team and now the offense sucks too. I don't see 1 win.

Well I nailed it here. What the holy fuck. I guess its a good thing I live in Houston since I never hear a word about the Big 12 unless I go looking. Holy shit. Edit: Enjoy Kansas as your Big XII champions.

This also starts happening inside of Fortune 500 companies where the goal stops totally being about money and starts to be about public perception and marketing. Competent employees are more at risk because there is a much larger bottom line to hide missing a few if you can pump those ESG numbers.

I have a hard time hating UT (and OK State) fans when it is not sports related because I have had to work with them closely for the last 2 decades. I have lived in Houston for ten years and can say that ATMs fanbase is more around 40% normal people and 60% delusional fucking retards that are...

Yep, my kids are going to flip their shit over this one.

Yep, I posted that and then saw the video. Moving on.

If I remember correctly, the slaves were well treated under Louis and liked him; it was only when they learned that he was a vampire (and was using his slaves as food) that they revolted and burned the plantation to the ground.

I hate the term union because of its negative connotation with Public Unions and their ability to strike for anything since the people paying them are paying them with unlimited government coffers. On the other hand, think of how different the Twinkie bakery union vs. company fight would have...

For any other team I'd say that this is loser talk for the team that doesn't expect to win. Oh God.

That is all good news.

PREFACE: I am mainly ignorant of the inner workings of the stock market and how it allows companies to be valued and then that value to translate to shares that are used to vote for "public" actions at board meetings even though they are dominated by insiders. Through many years of working...

We have also had a real issue with what a "starter" home should look like. A newlywed couple with no kids does not need a 3000 sq ft 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with a bonus room, media room, and second master suite; they need a 1000 sq ft 2 or 3 beds and 1 or 1/2 baths and no extra rooms...

Housing needs to be affordable to make sure that there is an "American Dream" to strive for if you are in the lower class. HOWEVER, that does not mean that housing in large cities needs to be affordable. We need a shift in the culture where small/medium sized companies go to small...

I have not looked at any of my portfolio's since the beginning of this year. I am passive only because I do not have the time or knowledge to do what you all in this thread do. I know that if I look at it then I am going to start really caring about the markets moving until they go back...

Am I the only one who loved the poison zone? It brought out my inner ARPG grind mentality. Also random so semi-roguelike. I was secretly hoping they made more optional zones like that in the next one.

The first one seemed to last longer than 40 hours; was it really that short?

Jesus Christ. That is all.

I was thinking the other day about how bad it is for banks that the interest rates on houses are double what they were a year ago and how that means there is going to be way less people borrowing money from them. I understand that they are getting the money at X rate and have to lend it out at Y...

My guy, how many times do you have to be told that the current system is not built on trust, it is build on a bribe. Use the US dollar as your reserve currency or be excluded from global trade. In the world you are describing the US becomes the biggest version of the mafia in the history.

The Double Decker Taco was the greatest fast food invention since the goddamn cheeseburger. That said, I will not pay $2+ for it even if I want 10 of them right now.

Irma's Burger Shack used to be almost at that level, but then they went and shut them all down. Sad times. The Wat U Lookin At was almost a challenge burger: 12 Oz name beef, fried eggs, bacon, pepper jack, swiss, hot links, all between hot ham and cheese sandwiches.

These people are wastes of oxygen. Sometimes I find myself thinking that it might be worth communism if I can see them all doing back-breaking physical labor because they lack any sort of real value to society.

What is MSRP on boxes/packs and how much over that do I have to pay because of scalpers?

I wonder if they ever fixed the Athletics stat being ridiculous to level and the work around being the Berserk mod plus pausing the game.

If they don't make an exception for Poker as a sport then they are fucking awful.

I thought Echos of Eternity (Siege of Terra Book #7) was great. ADB is one of their best writers and he really captured the feeling of the end of the Siege. Last two chapters and the one page epilogue are *chef's kiss*

This is the type of drama you follow if you have no friends or just crave looking down on other people to feel better about yourself. It is the video game version of Cosmo or Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Who the fuck cares about any of the Z level "celebrities" and their real lives? The...
