I've never seen the movie. Is the Chihuahua, by chance, from Beverly Hills?

That's rough buddy. Time to get a fake identity and open an account in a different state with stricter banking laws

Your current one as in, your credit union is the one charging you these "insufficient fund" fees?

I'm admittedly not educated in the law of banks and credit unions, but I have a feeling they aren't meant to be doing that.. not that the little man like you or I could do much about it 🤷🏾‍♂️

That poor kid. I already was upset thinking about them having to see Mom get arrested. I didn't even consider the fact that the youngest is probably blaming himself.

Just curious. Why not just get a different bank or credit union?

Did I miss anything?

Cops are usually chill and laid back, but they get tired of the monotony of their job sometimes and appreciate the use of erratic, unpredictable movement when interacting with them. They also like someone who is proactive, so instead of waiting for them to ask you for your licence and registration, just jump right out of your car as soon as they step out of theirs and pull your wallet out of your pocket as quickly as you can for them. You'll never have an issue with the cops again after this.

We Americans are very paranoid about things we think are "too good to be true" (don't know if that's a phrase everywhere). This may be looking too deep into things, but I honestly think our country's history of taking advantage of less informed peoples has influenced this - we know what happens when you take the bait, so it's best to just accept the norm (ie paying your own metro fare) vs risk finding out what happens if they come back looking for what they "gave" you.

I actually sat and thought on this for a second. If someone walked up to me and tried to give me a $100 bill, I'd probably ask a few questions first, mainly, "what do you want?" If they seem genuine in that they just felt like being nice to someone (or even if I got the "social experiment" vibes), I'd probably take it, and ask if I could buy them something small with it (like, if this were outside the grocery store, ask if they wanted some snacks or a drink or something).

I think if I were in a group setting, someone approaching the group trying to give us a $100 bill would probably would be quickly closed out of the circle, and everyone would get quiet and look away until they left, at which point everyone would talk about that weird guy trying to sell us something.

I honestly love it when such profoundly misinformed statements are put forward with absolute authority like this.

a single history

You know that half the country went to war with the other half, right?

a single government

In California, you can order weed through an app and get it delivered to your front door. In Idaho, get pulled over after picking up for the month, you're a felon.

a single language

Single official language sure. At my work I'm the only native English speaker and a majority of our customers are foreigners who speak little English.

This could vary depending on the situation, but as someone who works in healthcare in the US (pray for me), it doesn't really matter if you've got proof of traveler's insurance, unless I'm able to bill them directly and get a paid claim for it. In every case I've dealt with traveler's insurance (admittedly not a ton, but these things are usually handled similarly across the industry), I've been instructed by the insuring company to bill the patient/ client, and that the client will be submitting a claim.

If it's something relatively inexpensive like medication, you'll probably be charged at the pharmacy, pay out of pocket and get reimbursed.

If, God forbid, you need to stay at a hospital, or dare to mention the word "ambulance", you'll be given a bill for $1 million, which you'll forward to the insurance company. They'll handle paying the hospital, then follow up with you on any kind of copay you're meant to be left with.

That's how I used to play guitar, too. I got a cheapo sound pedal with a bunch of effects and premade back beats. Try to play some songs that I know. Sound bad. Keep doing it until I get bored or it sounds kinda cool once. That's enough for the week.

Am I ever gonna be anywhere close to decent? Nope. Do I care? Nope.

New title is much more indicative of your intent.

From your original comment I thought you meant just not recommended at all (ie no ads, never seen a comment or video online, etc) and was like.. how would I have played the game if it wasn't somehow recommended, how would I have heard of it?

I think you're looking for smaller games that aren't constantly being recommended online, which is much less restrictive, haha

The way I interpreted your title was "has not already been mentioned in this thread". Every game ever made has been recommended, idk how you expect people to answer this lol
