Not so much a verbal thing, but just the general first glance demeanor on a blind date or an internet date...tough to forget.

Also, growing up I was always told I'd never amount to anything spending so much time on computers and that I needed to do something with my life. Well, I made over $500k last year in software engineering consulting...so...yeah.

Are you self hosting?

My wife and I realized recently that both our phones are 80% photos of our animals, 10% memes, 5% food and like 5% of actual people.

Which is a pretty good ratio.

This makes my chest ache. That's...so painful and sad.

I agree with the first part of your comment, but laundromats are absolutely a high profit business.

source: family friend owns a bunch of them, every single one was net profitable inside of a few months and they are now basically pure profit month over month. They make more money than I ever have from a single software development job, even at my peak, and they largely just farm maintenance out and pay some labor.

I was thinking similar. Would be interesting to see what happens. I just wonder if it'd be possible to do on a mass scale before they catch on and start disallowing bankruptcy filings.

Might devolve into everyone just ceasing payments on CCs, loans, mortgages period.

Still better than Jerry Seinfeld.

I feel like if I had an inner voice I'd get super annoyed at it.

This post is amazing.

Some crazy part of me wonders what would happen if 50%-75%+ of people just straight up refused to pay.

And, not for like...one month. But 6-12 months. It would have to have a meaningful, negative impact to banks? Right?

It's the sad state of affairs in America right now.

Oh hell yeah, I miss my knife subs from Reddit. Thanks for popping up!
