@DonMiami3 It should have never been created and should be abolished.

The TSA panicans are undefeated

@BBGreatMoments Shit I'm older than this now? 😂

Knuckleballer Charlie Hough throws a complete game shutout in 1994 at the age of 46.

@aakashgupta No functioning adult makes minimum wage these days. It's an archaic law that should be abolished. My daughter, who is in high school, has never made less than 40% more than minimum wage. I agree with you on the destruction of our currency though.

An Auntie Anne’s original pretzel cost about $3.50 in 2009. Today it’s $7.29. The pretzel tracked inflation almost perfectly. The pretzel is accidentally the most honest inflation tracker in America. It’s priced in flour, sugar, labor, commercial rent, and energy. Every cost that went up in 17 years is baked into that $7.29. One mall receipt tells you more about the economy than most dashboards. Now do the rest. Gas in 2009 averaged $2.35 a gallon. Today it’s $3.81. Up 62%. The median U.S. home sold for $172,000 in 2009. The latest FRED data has it at $405,300. Up 136%. Average public university tuition went from about $7,000 to $12,000. Up 71%. Health insurance premiums for a family of four went from $13,000 to over $24,000. Up 85%. Every price in the economy moved. The federal minimum wage of $7.25 was set on July 24, 2009. It has not changed once in 6,088 days. $7.25 in 2009 had the purchasing power of $10.47 today. That’s a 30% silent pay cut delivered one year at a time, while the number on the check never moved. In 2009, $7.25 bought two Auntie Anne’s pretzels. In 2026, it doesn’t buy one. The dollar lost 30% of its value. The pretzel adjusted. The wage didn’t.

@Tiger__Vibes Why do they think Todd Graves is behind this? Assuming this all happens, LSU has a number of very wealthy donors.

They ain’t gonna miss your $9 lil bro.

@RampCapitalLLC @AdamSchefter Potentially a very important game too.

@AdamSchefter Can we stop doing this shit?

The 49ers and Rams will play Thursday, Sept. 10 at 5:35 p.m. PT at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Australia. Due to the 17-hour time difference, the 49ers and Rams will take the field Friday at 10:35 a.m. (AEST) in Melbourne, with the game airing Thursday evening in the United States.

@rphfrank @KathleenWinche3 Same. We're at the northern end. Thankfully neither of us have to cross it for work.

@KathleenWinche3 I live near the Causeway! It feels like it takes forever to cross it!

This is the longest bridge in America. Who knew? I didn’t!

@blackhawkce457 @carsonkrow Most men have a place where they keep their keys and wallet, and it never changes.

@carsonkrow Yall hide that stuff. Ever since I divorced, I never lost a thing again. Everything is exactly where I put it.

Husbands to wives all across the globe every day: “Where are my: Socks Keys Glasses Good shirts Pants Gym clothes Tools Pens Forks Etc…….” Democrats: “Women can’t keep up with their birth certificates” 🤡🤡🤡

@blueharp7728 @Amer1can_Barbie Mcdonald's was the only fast food restaurant within miles of where I grew up, and that opened when I was about 14. We'd drive 15 miles one way at midnight to get Taco Bell 😂

@Jake84629 @Amer1can_Barbie Yeah I tore McDonalds up. Would eat two lunches at school, walk in the door hungry. Can’t imagine having multiple teenage boys to feed at once with today’s prices

When I ask my kiddo what he wants for dinner…😳 Yes, he ate it all 😂

@RealSpikeCohen We get no benefit from ethanol unless you are a corn farmer in Iowa.

All those regulations do is drive up the price of gas. Waive them and never unwaive them.

@zellieimani We are 40 trillion dollars in debt and rising. This would really be the nail in the coffin.

The fact that your future depends on a 401k is exactly why Guaranteed Basic Income sounds reasonable to most of us.

@TXMCtrades @LaptopsPlural I saw it and was like, damn I'm still too old. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing 😂

@LaptopsPlural Bro I saw 42 and my eyes popped outta my head 😂

Dad how did you feel when you found out you were suddenly re-eligible to be a new recruit in the military?

@WKrapek @AJA_Cortes We slightly outnumber the Baby Boomers now.

@AJA_Cortes GenX is tiny. We’re dwarfed by the Boomers and the Millennials both. And to add insult to injury we were the red headed bastard step child. When we were babies, it was fashionable to hate children. They blamed us for polluting the environment just because we were breathing.

Millennial men are in their mids 30 to early 40s now Time to do something heroic There is no one else to rely on.

@StealthQE4 @NoFrankingWay Same

@NoFrankingWay Too old 😄

Ooof Recruiting problems.

@itsgotimebro @ThrillaRilla369 That one is going to hit me I think. 40 wasn't bad but I'll be 50 next year 😭

@ThrillaRilla369 Turning 50

What made you suddenly realize you’re getting old? 😆

@EvRiYr23 @1800factsmatter Nasty snakes. And they stink too. Venomous like a rattlesnake.

@Jake84629 @1800factsmatter I have no idea what a water moccasin is. I’ll google 🥴

This is how far a rattlesnake can strike

@EvRiYr23 @1800factsmatter That's crazy. Not many rattlesnakes here but I'm in Southeast Louisiana. We've got plenty of others you don't want around.

@Jake84629 @1800factsmatter Lmao 🤣 well that’s my dad’s car. He literally tried to behead it with a weed puller. It literally cost 154k at the ER for the snake 🐍 bite treatment. If I see it again I’ll call someone but that’s where the washer and dryer are as well. lol I’m always out there!

@EvRiYr23 @1800factsmatter But yeah my wife would never enter the garage again if she had a rattlesnake in her wheel. I'd be backing that car out the rest of my life 😂

@1800factsmatter My garage last Monday I have no idea where this thing currently is I took the photo from my car.

@WBodker23655 @queenie4rmnola She might be the worst mayor in the history of mayors 😂

@queenie4rmnola The same reason LaToya got elected.

Black people voted against the Louisiana governor by a wide margin. Ask White voters why they picked such an incompetent leader.
