No incentive. That's basically it. Years ago you had to learn the language because no one coddled to you. You were expected to know at least a modicum of English to function in society.

Also people came here with the idea that they were going to become American and being American meant speaking English. My parents grew up in households of Italian immigrants and never learned italian because "you're in America, you speak English."

It is racist and not inclusive now to expect people to learn English because it erases their culture. A friend of mine is a teacher and has a bunch of migrants in her class since they got rid of ESL classes as "isolating." So she has to Google translate everything she says. And they write their essays in Spanish and Google translate them to English.

Yep. Just try to max out the time as long as possible. Ask about who they're endorsing in local races and why. Then also make sure to say you're considering her but need to know more. That will put you on a call back list so you can waste even more of their time.

This. How many women will be like "i never want kids. Kids are a deal breaker." Then they meet a guy they really, really like who says he wants kids and suddenly "OH. I want kids too."

The left is so desperate to frame Trump as senile at this point because it is all they have when they're dealing with Cackling Kamala that can't answer a question to save her life.

I have friends that are COs. They said legit the first thing they say at applicant processing before you even fill out any paperwork is "ladies, we can not stress this enough, do not sleep with any of the inmates. You will lose your job. They're all going to try to charm you, do not sleep with them."

There was a bunch of drama with wookiepedia a few months back with banning editors that led to someone creating an alternative. I can't seem to find it right now (only saw it once via YouTube) but looked promising

Years back mobsters would do this on the regular because the Feds always refused to cooperate with local law enforcement thinking they were corrupt. The Feds would post up outside mob joints, a mobster would call the cops and be like "There are guys with guns in a car outside my cafe." Local cops would roll up and pull the Feds out of the car and toss them while the mobsters would all be laughing on the sidewalk.

I tried to call the treasury department a few months back, the call gets am automated message saying that because of high call volumes they can't answer them and I need to send an email to get a response then immediately get disconnected. I then send an email and get an auto response that because of the volume of emails I will not receive a response and need to call.

They'll immediately declare that the AFD is an illegal party and dismiss all votes against them because one time some dude that voted for them once had a picture taken with a swastika.

Denver is a shithole. The amount of homeless there is insane and they're violent, aggressive homeless. Walking around Denver at night is one of the few places where I have legit felt uncomfortable and unsafe. And I live in a major city and have been to South America and eastern Europe.

I mean to be fair game testing is tedious as fuck. Most of it isn't playing the game it is "run into every wall from every possible angle to make sure you don't clip through and fall through the earth."

Frasier is still of the era when most writers were extremely intelligent and didn't try to fake intelligence.

Things outside of their control(weather) or if they pull away from the gate then they can pull shenanigans. That's why you'll get boarded on a plane and then literally as the door closes they go "OH by the way we are going to be sitting on the tarmac for two hours."

I feel like a good measure for intelligence is to ask people "who do you personally know that you think is smart?" Then ask them "why do you think they're smart?" Because most people's idea of smart is such a low bar that the term is meaningless is conversation.

Did they literally arrest and sentence this dude in a matter of days?

Edit: Nevermind. Saw he took a plea deal. Still, that's insane, 32 months with a deal?

Dunk and Egg are pretty decent. Mostly because each one is independent from each other. Each book is a like a snapshot of a specific point their adventures.

Didn't happen how she said it did and is pure entitlement. Also, if you're that much of a celebrity you just call your manager/pr guy and they get you in anyplace last minute. This was all a stunt on her part.

The problem is once you get universal Healthcare or anything close to it you get people that abuse it and ruin it for everyone else.
