Last year I flew from Midway to Laguardia and when I arrived I realized that I left my smokes in the central time zone. I walked out to the smokers pen and asked someone there for a cigarette and we wound up chatting for like 20 min before our pickup arrived.

Smoking

• Good for socializing
• Bad for health and wallet

Because “Fuck you, pay me”

How often do I notice? Not very often.

How often is there piss in my pants? Idk, probably every day but not enough that I notice.

Bodhi!

Idk bruh, we may just have to agree to disagree. There’s a finite physical limit to how many $100 bills can be crammed into a tire, toy, or dog. Even if there is a will to cram more than that, physical limits are limits.

I appreciate the sentiment and believe basic media literacy skills include, and don’t exclude, questions like “does this make physical sense?” which I’ve tried to address for the community here.

Sure, that might account for the discrepancy between the 131 and 140 million dollars. There are three boxes in the photo, so if they were all filled with cash there’d be about $400 million total and each box would weigh in at ~1 ton which would tear a refrigerator box to shreds.

IMO - this smells of fake news/propaganda.

Yup, we saw that as well. When we accounted for the color of the lighting in the room, the analysis confidence rose from “confident” to “dead-on balls accurate.”

The image was enhanced and run through an analysis to identify the type of currency. They’ve been confirmed as USD $100 notes.

This story contains details which don’t make physical sense to me.

A bundle of $10,000, that’s 100 $100 bills, occupies (6.14 x 2.61 x 0.0043 )in = 6.89in^3

Then a refrigerator box might be (72 x 38 x 33)in = 90,288 in^3

Dividing the two out, we get:

90,288 / 6.89 ~= 13,100 bundles/refrigerator box

Which adds up to

$131 million per box

So while any one box might hold $140 million, I see multiple boxes AND refrigerator boxes aren’t going to stand up to that kind of weight. A pile of cash like that is gonna weigh a ton.

GOP looks scared

So when I was a child, my dad was a violent, alcoholic, asshole. And for a long time, that’s the only perspective I had of him. Now that I’m older and there are children around me, I can appreciate that he, for all of his glaring faults, was always present. Some dads aren’t that way. He was always there and always held us accountable and always to a high standard: nothing ever slipped.

In my case, the penalty inflicted for not meeting those standards was terrible… but as an adult I can have respect and some admiration for a father who makes time everyday to interact with his child, help them be aware of his or her responsibilities, and help the child meet them.

It’s like my ears: I don’t feel it.

Yes, very effective. I worked in commercial construction for a few years.

We didn’t use paint, but the gist is the same. A black EPDM roof may reflect about 5% of incident irradiance and a white TPO roof reflects about 80% which means that a white TPO roof reflects 16x more light than a black EPDM roof and the black roof absorbs 4.75x more than the white.

This means white is easier to cool in the summer and black is may be easier to heat in the winter, but the amount of sun in the winter is less so its not like 1:1.
