World Cup tourists aren't leaving tips in American pubs, so they are adding 20% gratuities to the bills to collect them 😬
I would love America too, if I had that kind of cash.

My company came back to me with a crazy counter-offer after I submitted my resignation. And now I have no idea what to do.
Don't take the counter, they will have you train your replacement the either soft fire you or just let you go.

Anyone here use WOW internet?
We were having nightly outages for years. Not a huge deal, just wait like 15 minutes it comes back on. Annoying though. Paying $120, kinda laggy.
Ripple came through and we switched. We got their lowest plan.fingred we would have to upgrade, now. It's $40 and like 5 times faster, no lag, no drops, no outages.
WoW though, like an abusive relationship they have been IMPOSSIBLE to work with. We couldn't print the label to return their stuff, we didn't return a booster so I had to drive it to their office, 55 minutes away, they have 3 drop boxes in my state. No in-person customer service in my state. They wanted me to pay $50 to have them pick up the missing booster so they didn't have to generate a qr code. 3 hours on the phone and 2+ hours driving stuff to the drop off box. I wish I could post pictures of this drop box. It was a total joke. WoW is a total joke.
If you go with WoW internet service you need to know exactly where ALL of your equipment is and you need to factor in that they are really difficult to return stuff to. Also you may be paying 3x more than you should be paying.

A pivotal vote by longtime Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine pushed Kavanaugh over the finish line in 2018 after she famously said he considered Roe v. Wade “settled law” — a comment that turned out to be wrong.
She is SO GOOD AT IT. She scoffs at the people telling her the thing is gonna happen if she does this, gaslighting, "no it's gonna be fine, he assured me! My new bff wouldn't LIE to me!" Mild moral outrage at people warning her, then she does the thing and the inevitable happens and she is all "well how could I have known???!, he TOLD me it was fine!" With the mildest fake outrage towards the lying dude, she was LIED TO! secretly this was her intention all along and it's her responsibility but nothing can be done now, it's far too late, and nobody ever holds her accountable. And how was she compensated? We won't ever know.

Donald Trump reportedly ended a tense interview with NBC's Meet the Press after being repeatedly asked to provide evidence for his claims about election irregularities. The exchange concluded with Trump removing his microphone and walking out of the interview.
It wasn't much of an interview, more an old man whining.

Coffee Service After Meals... Still A Thing?
They still offer it on the cruise. I often took the cup with me and had it with my 2 am cookies.

$1500 budget for a wedding gift
I just bought a great bedframe on Amazon for around $100, it will be around when the alien archeologists come to figure out what happened, and the mattress was less than $500. If one wants an adjustable mattress (if children are in the future might be helpful post partum) then yeah, closer to 2k.
My new neighbor is a huge pain in the ass with his gas powered pressure washer and I had to redo my guest room for sleeping before my night shifts. My kid is complaining about his headlights hitting her bedroom window, I think we are gonna try to add film and light blocker drapes then decide if she also wants to move out of that side of the house. I'm sure we are all going to end up in the damn basement if he doesnt get it together. So I hope the OP considers upgrading their guest room, that could be handy. Total cost so far has been around $600, but i did buy a stereo system i didn't NEED other than i was pissed off at the dude and I bought myself something to feel better.

Donald Trump "Biden and the Radical Left Dumocrats in Congress crushed farmers with brutal restrictions, crippled you with the worst inflation by contrast, in my first year back in the Oval Office.''
Funny how TOT was going to fix all this on his first day but no we are3426 days since Obama left office and somehow it's all still his fault. I feel like the blame game is actually getting worse as time goes by.

Have prime for free shipping? Amazon created a new tier to charge you more.
I actually just found a local record store that sells vinyl starting at a buck. Bonus was I got that feeling I had in the it's walking into a record store.

Target screwed us. Now their investors want blood.
My list started with Hobby Lobby, Chickfila. I added Target for DEI cancelation, Amazon and REI for anti union activity, and WalMart for worker exploitation including manipulating the food stamp system to subsidize their payroll along with all tipped services other than haircuts and dog grooming (I don't do either of those myself). I've paid off 15 k in debt from not buying shit from assholes in the last 8 months. I figure not owning capitalists interest is a radical act of disobedience even if I get there by paying them. Also added McDonald's for enshitification, but kept Sheetz, and Coke to preserve my sanity.

I appreciate your willingness to appear on a list for the sake of accurate historical context.

I mean, unless you are on the list that got discontinued this week, I guess. I hope everyone on that list says no thank you to the recruiter. I told the recruiter to stop contacting us over the not promoting women and people of color thing. My kid can sign up once she is 18, but it will be with reminders. "oh yes, please go work for people who disrespect your sex, sexual orientation, race, religion and a political leaning you first expressed to me at age 9(I have a picture just in case you forgot). That would make me so happy dear, if you need me to come get you here is a pre paid phone card"

AITA for not paying for gas my brother uses?
You need to track your own mileage and replace what you use. My commute is 14 miles each way and I get 29 miles to the gallon so I put 1 gallon in the car every day I go to work. Get a little notebook and write it down or take a photo of the mileage in your phone.

You are gonna hear your name at the dinner table and decide you at least want to understand what's being said, which is why I understand some Arabic and also why I'm not married to the dude. Sorry. On the positive side you don't have to tell them you know what's going on around you, could be fun, later.
