    i hate the word "passive aggressive", when someone uses the term it immediately makes me think of intellectual bohemians who racked up a bunch of student loans to get a degree in psychology only to spend the rest of their lives in denial but slowly coming to terms with the realization that that was a massive mistake and they don't even have a real job.. They either end up having to take care of misbehaving little shits with a little piece of paper called a degree to help convince themselves that what they're doing is meaningful, or they actually get paid to be that guy stuck listening to a drunk depressed person blabber on about their problems even though that's the exact reason they're there, because their wife and kids couldn't take listening to them blabber on about their problems any longer.

    Something about the whole idea of paying for information that's free in a library doesn't sit well with me.. Also, the second my textbook came with no binding or cover in loose leaf paper and cost 200 dollars, it all wreaked of scam. Literally nothing new has had to get added to standard chemistry books in like 50 years, you can take a chem book from the 70s and follow right along with the teacher in any class; they all teach the same things in the same logical order, don't know why the fuck they are getting away with selling new copies.. Especially ones without covers and no binding.

    How about this, just make sure firearms don't get made illegal and get confiscated in this hell hole police state while I'm out, and because I'm going to go try roughing it in no man's land for a while and return some day with riches

    you should run your creidt to see if that showed up if it did call the bank and ask them to take it off, and pay the overdraft, also if you call right after when there's an overdraft every single bank everywhere will remove the fee if you ask nicely/threaten to close your account

    ok look i went through some shit awhile back and declared bankruptcy to get out from under insanely high medical bills (thank god obama wasnt elected in 2000) and now my car paymnt has 18% interest because i got it 1 year after, i still owe 15k on it (dont ask ok) but my credit score has gone up 100 points, the problem here is that a "good" credit score has also gone from 900 to like 1k points so im in exactly the same boat i was in when i started off, ive gone up 100 points (never missed a payment) but so has a good credit score, so how the FUCK do i fix that?

    I had an account at a credit union but closed the account the second they overdrafted me for something.. My insurance bill came in at midnight and my paycheck came in at 4 am and they fucking overdrafted me.. Deny the transaction, fuck, tell the insurance company with an automated email that they'll add a notice to my account regarding insufficient funds and let me know about it the next time I stop in. If the insurance company gets their pants in a knot about a gap between payments then that's my fucking problem, don't just take money out of thin fucking air and charge me extra for doing so, you crazy fucking bastards

    Hi I was wondering, can I overdraft my card for 10 million USD? Yeah I'll pay it back later, I just need it now so I thought I'd overdraft. Oh, what?? You'll deny such a large transaction? Oh so there is some fucking intelligence behind the scenes over there at the circus you're running, I assumed you just blindly pulled money out of the account, so how did you know that I didn't have 10 million but didn't know a while back when I had insufficient funds for a 150 dollar insurance bill and you charged me 40 bucks for overdrafting?

    Therefore, there is no reason for me to ever build up credit and no reason for me to ever own a credit card, and I'll never have to fear getting in to debt. I had to open up a bank account a few months ago for the sole purpose of getting money from someone. I withdrew all the money ASAP and haven't touched the account since.

    I'm sure I'll have a job again in the future that only sends out paychecks as direct deposit, and even then I'll only do so very reluctantly and hesitantly. I experience pure discomfort and malaise 24/7 when I'm in even the smallest amount of debt, I don't know how it can be some people's life choice to be in debt.

    God damn banks. God damn bitches and hoes! Get off my dick with that overdraft shit, don't be frontin son

    He found the thug bitch the next day. He located him a few blocks away in a different part of town, picking up some watermelon and grape soda from a convenience store. He knew not to even bother asking questions and waste time listening to the thug's bullshit excuses; he had dealt with these types of thugs before. As the thug was preoccupied trying to get a napkin out of a napkin dispenser to clean ketchup off his hand, he quickly snuck up behind him and not wasting a 10th of a second grabbed a nearby wooden stool, and like a predator coming out of the bushes with the upper hand of total surprise, he proceeded to bash the thug unconscious. Without the slightest hesitation and in the same seamless motion, he reached down and took the thug's wallet, and also discovered a large bag of PhDs which he pocketed. "School's out motha fucka!" he yelled at the thug's unconscious mangled body before running off into a nearby alley.

    I don't know if you understand the economic system in the US.. going to college is fine and dandy, and you generally want to put the idea in kids' heads when they're young that they should go to college.. that being said, every boy and girl can go to college along with all the angels in god's choir with no one left out and everyone in it as equals, but it won't do anyone anything if there weren't any jobs in the first place.

    When the british soldiers tried to buttfuck us, do you think we started crying about life being unfair and acting like a little bitch while the redcoats fucked the colonists wives??
    or did they act like big boys and go get a posse together to beat the everloving shit out of the brits' silly asses for even day-dreaming that they could get away with their bullshit?

    There aren't any real jobs anymore, they just don't exist. We have food being grown and harvested in the most efficient possible manner that it can be done in; we have that food sent across the country in trucks driven by truckers, and then we have that food sold in grocery stores at a decent price. After all that, we're pretty much just fucking off most of the time, when you really get down to it

    There's something in business called "planned obsolescense", and if you can truly appreciate just how large of a role it plays in corporate philosophy today, you'd start to look at things like a car that is functionally identical to another car but costs 5 times more or brand name clothing that has holes in it before you even buy it and start to get the impression that everyone is suffering from acute lead poisoning.

    Actually the speed of light is only constant locally; it is possible to violate the speed of light in space that is dilated due to the presence of mass.
    If you took a super duper incredibly long stick (teacher holds up yard stick and proceeds to act out his example) that was several times longer than the diameter of the sun and put it through the exact center of the sun, that stick would appear shorter than it would if you stuck it alongside the sun. This is because the density of the sun's mass increases toward the center, and due to the dilating effect mass has on spacetime, there is literally "more space" toward the center of the sun.

    you tak alot of shit and pronounce things which are obviuos. all of us have read this shit or watched specials hoted by stephen hawking

    the only thing that can make things seem like they're moving faster than the speed of light is space expanding. the further you look out into space you can see things moving away from us faster and faster and it does become faster than the speed of light and that's dark energy expanding the fabric of space

    now shut up. photons cannot go faster than c. tachyons are theorized to do so, but they haven't been discoverd

    Economics are instinctive; things like sexual desire are often dependent on food quantity/availability in the environment; if the availability of food suddenly has a high surplus, it instinctively tells everyone to have a breeding frenzy. We equate things like money with gold and time; with our economy taken off the gold standard, they can use the federal reserve to induce episodes of mass spending manias in the economy. Whether we realize it or not, something in the back of our mind tells us that everything is suddenly more obtainable and purchasing in excess is suddenly easier and rewarding; the collective consciousness of the nation's consumers as a whole gives off the vibe to everyone that more money is always on its way - they feel as if they're constantly hitting the jackpot and should keep buying as long as it lasts.

    With no gold standard and the ability to tweak and manipulate currency behind the scenes with the federal reserve, our economy starts to resemble a black hole; the trend of spending money stars to become self-sustaining, since the careless spending of money by consumers promotes the creation of more goods and services, which increases the demand for employees which ends up increasing the amount of money flowing in to consumer's pockets which in turn feeds back in to carelessly spending money. The gears of the economy keep speeding up and accelerating, and this goes on and on until the enormous level of inertia the economy has accumulated becomes openly problematic and the availability of basic necessities like food and water comes under threat due to how extremely volatile the economy is and how devalued currency is.

    This explosion that results from spending habits accelerating to their breaking point causes the economy to begin strongly sucking back in as the pressure from the build-up is finally released. Where people were once spending in excess, they are now desperately trying to save money back up again - but experience extreme difficulty in doing so as businesses are doing likewise; the economy stagnates. Businesses are making less money since not as many people are spending, and people are spending less because the businesses that employed them are paying them less or can no longer employ them entirely.

    Let me say that it is in corportions' immediate best interest to keep the working class' income castrated post-crash and attempt to postpone their recovery as long as possible. This will allow the corporations, who are in a panic, time to save up before consumers have a possibility to grab the upper hand. Corporations want to keep gathering more and more of the playing cards until they're confident that their future is secure. The more of those playing cards they secure, the more effective they'll become at obtaining more. It's going to be a period in our country's history full of civil liberties coming under attack and being challenged by corporations and the government, and corporations and the government attempting to strip away power and freedom from people at every conceivable angle.

    They are going to challenge us on every front, and try to spiritually rob people of their sense of entitlement as human beings. Movies and television shows which were a longtime source of inspiration will be used again as they once were, as propaganda machines for manipulating the masses. Fascism will find its way into the working world, where self-serving pigs will take over leadership positions and manipulate workers to into competing with each other and ostracize anyone who challenges the hierarchy. You will have to be someone's bitch or else face total social rejection and ultimately be driven out of a job one way or another. The drive for survival will force people to find the only temporary solution they can, which is seeking a position of acceptance within the new system - dependence on the system will completely overpower all other drives and motives, such as concern for others or the desire for independence.

    It's the onset of dystopia. Corporations are definitely going to push for it; the fear of competitors beating them to it alone is going to force them to. Good luck everyone. In God we trust.

    Tell you what. Corporations, you can go ahead and have at the whole dystopia thing as long as you give me and all my fellow junkies all the drugs we want.
    Actually I think that might have been their plan with methadone but it turns out that having a bunch of heavyweight junkies that feel impervious to pain and have an utter contempt for the system isn't exactly in the best interest of a government trying to run a dystopia.
    It's a bummer, the whole "keep the population physically dependent on narcotics in order to control them" theme for a dystopia had such a nice ring to it.

    Getting scammed in runescape and running your own scam-ring in runescape as a 13 year old taught me a lot about economics. It only has to happen to you a couple of times before you figure out not to do it again, and it does teach you a valuable lesson in economics... Never give a dickwad something up front in a trade, especially when that dickwad has anonymity and nothing at all prevents him from getting away with it.. You also learn to never make a trade that requires a commitment; never borrow money, and its more efficient to buy crappy items you can use now so you level up faster instead of buying super awesome expensive items that you can't even use yet - real world implication: when that 100,000 car breaks down, it's going to suck a whole lot more ass than when your 900 dollar "strictly a commuter" car breaks down
