That’s an interesting observation. Never thought about it that way but you’re right for some of us. My wife, on the other hand, knows about the deals and specifically will go when they come up. So for others it does work that way.

Eucalyptus. Makes my asthmas flair up badly. Strong enough and it closes my airway. No Vicks vaporub for me. Obviously it’s not a smell I like.

Ahhhhh, somehow I missed that he did that. Thanks for the heads up.

For me it’s do the 10% quick math then double. I never tip less than 20% even if someone is not great just because people have shit days in customer service (my field). If they’re great I go up from there and leave a nice message of appreciation. They never hear praise enough.

Plus if you end up going back they won’t forget stellar tips and you will get priority/better seating/treated more like a friend which is always nice. Ex. For work we frequent a great local BBQ place that also serves a rotating selection of local brews. One waitress is amazing and always treats us well. Can’t say the good tips we leave are the reason but I’m sure it doesn’t hurt.

Not quite sure I follow this one. Assuming that’s Trump but what’s a roll of “guilty” toilet paper supposed to represent other than multiple guilty verdicts? Wouldn’t a law book make more sense?

The idea is a show of force to stop anyone from actually using them on anyone else and to get the other side to back down. No one, not even N Korea or Russia, really wants to use them. They aren’t that dumb yet fortunately.

Also, there are different tonnages of nukes. While every nuke creates an environmental disaster. Some are small enough to be localized with minimal fallout. Still not great, but not world ending either.

I used this same tactic on other websites (mentioned in other comments) and it works extremely well. The incumbent failed to answer certain questions while a new candidate was eager to and had some really great game plans to tackle issues our city was facing. They ended up winning which was awesome and started putting policies in place that are doing good for people in the city.

I really like #3. Yes, it’s going to take more work than just searching them online but, they’re right, you will learn a lot just by seeing how involved/passionate the candidate is to actually make change for the good of others even if you disagree with some of their policies. At least you can sleep at night knowing they actually give a crap.

This is a good one. I’ve also used ballotpedia. Typically I use multiple sources just by google/bing/ddg/etc searching to confirm information on the candidate. Worked extremely well last mayoral election where we kicked an incumbent out who didn’t do a terrible job but we needed a change.

He’s taking a page from the Torah. One of the ways to completely eliminate your enemy was to wipe their entire culture off the face of the earth so not even one child is left to grow up to be a potential threat.

I don’t see anywhere that the info he had on the slides was classified.
