Ooh is this the part of the thread where everyone chimes in with their haircut habits and the derail goes on and on as the argument about which haircut method is superior becomes more and more insufferable? I loving hope not

Grand Prize Winner posted:I knew a kid in middle school who was born in '88 but whose dad was a WWII vet. That dude is both a millennial and a boomer Uh, no, he's not. He would be a baby boomer only if he had been born during the baby boom. These stupid generation names apply to the time period, not to "what is the label assigned to your parents". It's not some sort of caste system.

Subjunctive posted:Doesn't that mean that they just gave gofundme 30% of 200M? It seems like they have carefully worded it so that the one guy's promised investment of 200 million dollars, which is completely separate from the gofundme scam, is counted as part of the gofundme scam. If you subtract that from the scam total so far, victims have contributed about 20 grand.

Stupid idol-group fans over here do basically the same thing, but they are a million times as wasteful. Idol group AKB48 sells 2.5 million copies of new CD, bags full of them end up in trash days later This is not an isolated occurrence.

They're also being pimped out to industry execs on the reg but you won't see that being reported anywhere reputable. Same with the bikini idol industry. IIRC Minami Komukai went public with her experiences being passed around between industry insiders but by that time she'd already started on drug addiction so everyone went "welp nothing to see here" Edit: the founder of the idol industry married one of the girls from his first group but I'm sure that's just a happy coincidence Weatherman has a new favorite as of 01:37 on Jun 7, 2018 |

Ghost Leviathan posted:Reminded how Starbucks failed in Australia, apparently the coffee shop market was already fully saturated. Eh, less it was fully saturated and more Australian coffee culture is several light-years ahead of the US's, so we pretty quickly realised that Starbucks' coffee was poo poo filtered through dirt and refused to go there. Because why bother when you can get real coffee at literally every other coffee shop? Fake edit: I am immensely proud of the fact that we got Starbucks to pull out. inb4 something about "your dad should have pulled out"

Der Kyhe posted:This is actually interesting, because I am in understanding that for example, the Denver Airport can never have a reasonable local commute train because of the ~10 meter (32 feet) patches which the non-existent rail companies own. Because there used to be a railway, but that is no longer functional but the companies which own the land are absolute assholes? They have eminent domain laws and used them in the past to snatch land from people to give to developers, so why not resume those patches from the arsehole owners?

This video shows the actual number and positions of trains on the Yamanote Line (the loop line around Tokyo that tourists and weebs jizz themselves over) and a couple of associated lines during rush hour. Time of day is shown in the upper left. Mute the video to avoid lovely animu music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_M3xNTaBa8 This is why the only acceptable response to "  Trains can never work in the United Freedoms " is "lol merican exceptionalism  "Also I want to spam it in the mailbox of every employee of Queensland Rail, who can't run half-a-dozen lines worth a drat because "but guyyyyyyyyys it's suuuuuuuuuuuuch a complex system!"

Pakled posted:The main obstacles to better metro rail travel in the US have always been political and social, not engineering. Acknowledging that it's hard to get more Americans to accept rail transport isn't American exceptionalism, it's just the political reality. I'm not talking about engineering. The video I posted simply shows what can be done when you put your mind to it. And I maintain my view that you (not you personally, the us public) throw up your hands and say "it's just too hard" when it comes to stuff like this. Get the entire economy on a war footing for years and harness the entire scientific output of the country so you can pound Europe and Asia into submission? Check! Roll out a system of highways across the entire country from sea to shining sea? Good old American gumption! Conscript an entire cohort so you can pound another Asian country into accepting freedom? Don't tread on me! Build a rocket engine, strap a bunch of men to it and fire it at the moon just to show them Russkies who's boss? HOO-AH! (another war outing to topple a leader who dissed your dad) NEVAR FORGET! But try to build one railway line from a city centre to a massive airport, and all of a sudden it's " those big mean railway companies won't let us!" and " Socialist transport? Not in my backyard!"

Ah yes, the famously low population densities of American cities. Tell me more about how exceptionally sparse they are  For the record, this context started from someone posting about how a heavily-trafficked corridor between Denver and its airport couldnt get a rail line because it's exceptionally hard to resume the needed land. I don't know why you guys are so eager to expand the scope to "cover the literal entire country with commuter rail". Perhaps focus on the cities first where the biggest gains can be made?

Hang on a second. My Economics 001 textbook, which is basically Holy Writ for Merrica, told me that if a needed service were lacking somewhere then the Glorious Hand(tm) of the Free Market(pbuh) would wave itself and poof, many service providers would magically appear and peacefully compete for custom. Why isn't that happening in these so-called food deserts? Do they just hate freedom?
