As an American, what the fuck are you talking about?

Good to see the police openly lying
..... Have they ever done anything else?
Valve stem tool. Any bike shop worth going to will have one, and almaot any auto shop should have some.
Loosen the stem, and you don't even have to sit there letting the air out. Just walk away and let it deflate.
This looks more like someone did it on purpose.
They're all shifted down by one
It's the difference between actively telling people "you do not have this right!" and quietly twiddling your thumbs and shrugging as people look for the information.
$250 non refundable application deposit?
LMAO I'd sooner torch the rental property than pay just to APPLY to hopefully live there.
My wife and I were looking at realtors and one told us we would need to provide our credit card info to look at properties, and I just laughed and said "go fuck yourself" and hung up.
The only valid response, IMO.
The fact that people actually pay this shit is infuriating.
‘Do something you love and you’ll never work a day in your life’.
It's a nice sentiment, but sadly the moment you depend on it for survival, it becomes work.
In another comment just now, I mentioned my hobbies include making knives/swords, leather work, and some light carpentry.
I love all these things. I make a pretty neat and simple metal rose that I can do different things with for coloring, and those sell like hotcakes around valentines day. But every year, I only make a handful for a few people here and there, and almost always as gifts. I never make a bunch of them beforehand with intent to sell "to someone", that's work. That's unenjoyable for me.
I could make bank in my area if I invested my savings into metalworkingnstuff stuff and focused on custom knives for hunting and camping, but the thought of that makes me want to kick my anvil and forge into the lake.
I suppose the response to that should be "well I just haven't found the thing I truly love" yet, but I just don't believe there is anything of value that I could provide to anyone that I would enjoy so much that it never feels like work and pays all my bills.
I long for the utopian future of post-scarcity...
that’s still work: you’re creating something of value for others and/or for society
Honestly I put "NEED to get paid in order to live" but changed it to "I NEED to work" because of this. Even if I just decided to find a forest in the middle of nowhere to claim as my own, build a house, raise animals and farm the land I'm still working.
But since I do enjoy my hobbies of carpentry, metalworking and leatherworking, I don't really consider them work in the same sense. You're 100% correct.
I make stuff for people all the time, but it's on my own schedule when I feel like working on something, and I only accept orders when I feel like it. If I tried to do that full time, it's now not really up to me if I go work on something today. I have to or I get backed up, the customer gets pissed, and I'm losing money. Or the equivalent favors/barter.
I have never, and I mean TRULY NEVER wanted to work.
But I am not stupid, so I know I NEED to work in order to live.
Not wanting to give the majority of my day to a company that makes more in one second than 10,000 minimum wage employees make in a month is not "being lazy".
1/3 is already taken by sleeping, and you fucking want me to just give up another 1/3? For THIS shit pay? Entirely Fuck Off.
Plus it costs me money just to get to work.
That's right up there with calling Epsteins victims "underage women" instead of CHILDREN
Ooh nice, cheaper eco-friendly alternative!
