Like most humans, I don't actually want to be rich. I just want to never have to worry about money.
There's a difference.

Hahah, watching a doc about freeways, and I'm at the part where environmental impact reports became part of the paperwork.
The interviewee: "I don't think we INTENTIONALLY always targeted oppressed and low-income populations, it's just where land was the cheapest!"
Actual documents: "This freeway will have bridges no higher than 9 feet to prevent buses from using it. Buses would bring UNDESIRABLES to our city, you see."

Decided to get a ramen packet since I'm out of food at home. Had to choose between Maruchan and Top Ramen, and WOW are these nutrition facts sleazy as FUCK.
Both are nearly identical. Maruchan hides its salt behind "oh... uh, servingsperpackage2" like anyone has ever eaten half a fucking ramen packet.
Top Ramen is even worse. It says "servings per package: 1"
And then lists the nutrition facts PER HALF PACKAGE.
Full nutrition facts are hidden behind the seam.
So sleazy. Soooo sleazy.

From another angle, it means you're respected as a world-class authority to the point where people just assume you're an international team!

I... don't WANT to dislike dansup, but every post of his feels like it's assembled by cutting words out of a magazine and pasting them on a computer screen.
I know some people are simply awkward in text. It took years to convince my boss to stop texting in caps, for example.
But it does make me curious if I'm the only one that thinks so. People seem to fave and boost these awkward posts pretty freely.
