The thing about making it a holiday is interesting. Everyone in the service industry would be forced to work, probably extra hours as well. Because here any holiday means people who are lucky enough to be middle class and above will be consuming, especially eating out or ordering food in.

I’d prefer mandatory voting like Australia but with ballots mailed to everyone automatically. Make it as easy as possible.

I’m assuming you’re in Germany? So envious of your labor rights there and in the broader EU.

We were allowed to donate plasma eight times per month. $25 first donation of the week $35 second.

Do you get paid for the work day? I used to donate plasma twice a week because that $240 a month was the only money I had. I stopped because now I don’t need that money and I work too much to have time for it.

If I got a paid day off work for every donation I would be there as often as they let me.

Watch The Thing next.

It largely holds up. That scene in particular.

Mine dislocates this way as well. Bends you in half so you have to baby step walk right. It’s happened six times now.

Nobody understands how bad this hurts. ER visit every time with 2-3 hour wait in ER with no pain meds. My shoulder is destroyed but now I’ve built up enough muscle to hold it in place.

Seriously people are like yeah that happened to me once, wasn’t that bad, why didn’t you just pop it back in yourself?

No motherfucker this is a completely different story.

But yeah. I understand you! Cluster headaches got nothing on this type of dislocation.

This couch exists at my mother-in-laws’s house.

I don’t know a single person worth 10 million or anywhere close, if you don’t count my boss’s boss and up. I’m curious where you live.

Their flush cuts are the shit. Next time I break a tool I’m going to see if there’s a knipex version.

I will never forget being at a party in my twenties and overhearing a girl I had hooked up with telling two other girls about my dick. It’s a shame I didn’t have the confidence then that I have now.

This is totally possible. Maybe not for 1600 miles but 1000 for sure. I do this for 500-800 miles regularly. Sometimes 1000+. Speed limit is 70mph on most US highways and the unspoken agreement is you can go 8 or 9 over and not get pulled over. In metropolitan areas you can typically go even faster on the beltway, almost everyone does. You train yourself not to need to piss as often, so you piss while you gas up. You don’t eat until your drive is done.
