@Oluwadavid17 @Isaac_AFC_ 9 points looks a lot but....
City win their game in hand - 6 point gap
City beat us at the Etihad - 3 pt gap
English

@Isaac_AFC_ Arsenal didn't have 9points gap with 7games to go. Even if City win there game in hand we still have 6 points. Arteta only need to beat Bournemouth and win or draw City that is final.

@end3of6days9 A penny saved for minutes physical effort
Vs
A penny more and orange juice instantly available
Young people don't understand the value of time
English

This girl sees Tropicana on sale for $4.99 and thinks “I can beat that.”
She grabs two bags of oranges for $4.98, pulls out the manual juicer, and starts sweet-talking the fruit like “please don’t let me down” 😂
Ends up with almost the exact same amount of juice… but way better taste.
I’m sure fresh-squeezed OJ tastes better, but would you really go through all that trouble just to save a penny? 😭

@Noodles_Now @BamaSaltyMarine So many died before people were like 'I can't put my finger on it, but something tells me these animals won't domesticate too well'
English

@BamaSaltyMarine Snakes were a surprising first attempt, even before horses.
Mostly because falling off a snake wasn't too painful.

@_falsi1ke Picking up a hobby I had when I was 15 (33 yrs ago) was an excellent decision. Behold the results.

@TheArsenalMind @SemperFiArsenal I genuinely worry this could have a catastrophic knock on effect
English

@SemperFiArsenal All this talk seems good but you can't deny the phycological damage this does to the players losing a final like that.

@alt_w_v_g White goods warranties are a licence to print money. You pay more for them than the price of a new dishwasher/oven etc
Save yourself the trouble, refuse the warranty and just pay for a new one when this one breaks down
Smarter, cheaper and less hassle
English

The dishwasher broke
My wife said "good thing we have the home warranty"
I said nothing
I've been paying $62 a month for three years for this moment
$2,232 for the peace of mind that when something breaks someone will come to the house and tell me it's not covered
I called
47 minutes on hold
They sent a technician
Arrival window: Tuesday through Thursday between 8am and 5pm
My analyst delivers faster than that
And he still hasn't fixed the gridlines
He showed up Wednesday at 4:47pm
Looked at the dishwasher
Opened the door
Closed the door
Touched something underneath
Said "not covered"
90 seconds
That's faster than my bank lets me prove I'm human
I said "what's covered"
He said "the motor"
I said "what's wrong with it"
He said "not the motor"
I said "convenient"
He said the service fee is $75
I paid a man $75 to open my dishwasher, close my dishwasher, and say two words
My analyst could do that
And he's not even that good
I called the warranty company back
38 minutes on hold
Requested the policy
129 pages
I read all 129 pages
Because that's what I do
The coverage section is 34 pages
The exclusions section is 58
The business model is right there
In the margins
Where nobody reads
Except me
Page 91 says "all mechanical and electrical components essential to appliance function are covered under standard service"
Page 104 excludes control panels
A control panel is an electrical component essential to appliance function
Their own document contradicts itself 13 pages apart
I highlighted both
Sent them an email
Subject line: "Plz fix. Thx."
Attached both pages
No other context
Took them three days to send a technician
Took them 4 hours to call me back when I found the loophole
Funny how that works
They covered the repair
Waived the $75
And I canceled the warranty anyway
Because a contract that contradicts itself isn't a contract
It's a suggestion
My wife said "so we're canceling"
I said "we're canceling"
She said "and the dishwasher"
I said "fixed. They're covering it."
She said "how"
I said "I read the policy"
She said "all 129 pages"
I said "the exclusions section starts on page 47. The coverage section ends on page 34. There are 13 pages between them where they hoped nobody would look."
She looked at me
Then she said "you're unbelievable"
I said "I just saved us $744 a year and got a free dishwasher repair. I'm not unbelievable. I'm thorough."
She looked at the ceiling
The dishwasher works now
The warranty is canceled
And the policy has been read
By at least one person
Probably the first
Make common sense common again
Plz fix. Thx.

@edgaralandough Cranking out sets at 5.30 before the wife and kids wake up is how we roll

@jason_howerton Clinging to your youth in your 40s is frankly embarrassing. At this stage of life if you haven't found a focus point for your energy you are a bit of a failure, regardless of whether you make enough to pay the bills

@MurrayHillGuy1 I want to be my parents

@thegregzilla @found_it_funny It's funny bcz they think ppl like Lenin were working class heroes but he was middle class, came from money and never did a stroke of manual labour in his life.
Come the revolution "Yay govt of the proles"
After "Wait we're not in charge?"
English

@found_it_funny They think communism means everything is free and you get to do what you want all day

@dissidntdad And stopping from time to time to unpack the ideas in the book 👌

@WellBuiltStyle I do this with a shirt that has a pattern inside the cuff. It's a shame to never see it, so this method allows it to poke out and show itself off
