I haven’t had my jeans rip in the knees since I was a kid. Now, with Eren around, I’ve already ripped two of my jeans.

“My dear boy, if I sold that stock now I’d lose my position; and then where would I be? And when you are as old as I am and you’ve been through as many booms and panics as I have, you’ll know that to lose your position is something nobody can afford; not even John D. Rockefeller. I hope the stock reacts and that you will be able to repurchase your line at a substantial concession, sir. But I myself can only trade in accordance with the experience of many years. I paid a high price for it and I don’t feel like throwing away a second tuition fee. But I am as much obliged to you as if I had the money in the bank. It’s a bull market, you know.”

The first tone is audible to humans and is a warning tone. The second tone is ultrasonic, inaudible to humans, and intended to scare the dog away.

My tweeter can push out the first tone loud enough to wake up the whole house, but doesn’t have a high enough frequency response to put out the second tone.

New tweeters, amplifier for a powered array, and bark sensors on the way.

FBI Hate Crime statistics are out for 2016

FBI Hate Crime statistics are out for 2016

FBI Hate Crime statistics are out for 2016.

We all know that 2016 is the year that hateful white racist Trump supporters brought out the hate and busted up the uninterrupted 8 years of peace, love, and respect felt under Obama.

Anti-Muslim hate crime incidents increased by +19.46%.
Anti-White hate crime incidents increased +17.46%.

Hardly a difference; Muslims are just better at creating drama, although I’m sure white nationalists are looking to fix that.

Anti-Jewish hate crime incidents only increased by +3.01%
Anti-Black hate crime incidents decreased -0.34%

Despite all the histrionics about Trump, hate crime incidents for 2016 have improved over 2015.

Anti-Muslim hate crime incidents decreased from +66.88% to +19.46%.
Anti-Jewish hate crime incidents decreased from +9.03% to +3.01%
Anti-Black hate crime incidents decreased from +7.03% to -0.34%

Anti-White hate crimes are the only incidents that increased over the previous period from +3.37% to +17.46%.

In Zimbabwe, it’s trading around $13,499.

The people of Venezuela and Zimbabwe have figured out what the Americans still have not; that money does not grow on trees, and that the full faith and credit of a government is only as good as its ability to continue to deliver on, and pay for, promises expected of it.

Apparently, MoviePass is the latest fad that financially illiterate...

Apparently, MoviePass is the latest fad that financially illiterate millennials are into. Which is ironic, because the people that are signing up for MoviePass are the same people that claim to care about the movie and movie theater industry.

“AMC also believes that promising essentially unlimited first-run movie content at a price below $10 per month over time will not provide sufficient revenue to operate quality theatres nor will it produce enough income to provide film makers with sufficient incentive to make great new movies.”

http://investor.amctheatres.com/file/Index?KeyFile=389925821

“This influx of capital has allowed MoviePass to continue to subsidize the cost of this subscription to the benefit of pass holders, though obviously not profitability at this point. It’s operating in the red while it focuses on growing subscribers.”

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/moviepass-drops-pricing-under-7-165817738.html

“About $5 million would go towards acquiring the remaining interest in unprofitable MoviePass, a movie theater subscription founded by Netflix co-founder Mitch Lowe.”

Personally, as a non-aficionado, I think it’s funny.

2.79 for a 2 year old for a shitty...

$152.79 for a 2 year old for a shitty Bronze EPO (not even a PPO) plan, with a $4800 deductible, and a $6550 out of pocket maximum.

I get to spend at least $1,833.48 on premiums every year, even If I don’t use the insurance, and up to $8,383.48 each year, before the Insurance picks up the rest.

I used to spend $60 a month ($720 annually) for myself, a much more liable 32 year old, with a $4500 out of pocket maximum, and considered “that” to be expensive. 🙄

This is so ridiculous.

It’s really unfortunate that Obamacare doesn’t cover its supporters’ retardedness.
