You should be disappointed to learn that most of the “antivaxxers” probably already got Attenuvax, or even the modern MMR vaccine. It’s their children and other at-risk groups that will suffer the most.

I don’t abuse alcohol. I love alcohol, so why would I abuse it?

the blank cheques being handed out wastefully

What blank cheques exactly?

And I’m not sure how you do it down in oz, but in most other countries, the government creates budgets for each agency, and those agencies then decide how to allocate their funds. If the government thinks that some agency is wasting too much money, they reduce their budget. There’s not supposed to be a king who decides all that on a whim.

And how many “blank cheques” to the defense industry have been investigated? Surprise, because it’s not about cutting “wasteful spending”.

That probably wouldn’t pass the float test though, right? I wouldn’t risk it after that long, but I’m glad you didn’t get sick.

an approximate location based on cell tower triangulation (which is kind of hit or miss, sometimes it’s really accurate, other times it’s basically useless)

I thought it was some kind of law that newer phones have to send accurate GPS coordinates?

The USDA’s website says that eggs are “washed and refrigerated in Canada, Japan, and Scandinavia”, but that’s a lie regarding Scandinavia in any case (I’m an egg enthusiast btw)… so I wouldn’t be surprised they’re lying about Japan as well.

It was already difficult enough to undo bra hooks, but now you can watch 6 unskipable ads instead and it’ll release itself automatically. Much profit indeed.

It’s basically the same thing in Sweden, but in the rare chance that the tax agency makes a mistake, it’s usually resolved before summertime without any court issues.

Unwashed eggs have a much shorter shelf life

Unwashed eggs have a shelf life of like 3 weeks. If I put them into the refrigerator, they’re still good for at least 2 months. I’ve eaten eggs that sat in my fridge for almost 3 months, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with them; float test, inside visuals, and taste was perfect.

We don’t usually sell washed eggs, so I don’t know what their shelf life usually is, but a search shows that it’s like 5 weeks at the most? So an extra couple weeks? That doesn’t seem like a huge difference especially when considering the negatives.

before the salmonella gets through the porous shell.

We don’t even have salmonella in our egg production lines due to better rules and quality controls, but even if we did, how would removing the cuticle reduce bacteria risks? The cuticle is surprisingly resilient; bacteria doesn’t just “get through” it that quickly or easily.

Also consider that the egg’s cuticle doesn’t just hold out bacteria… it also holds in moisture etc. And when moisture leaves the egg, what happens with the displacement? It sucks in air from outside, which may contain contamination, or any salmonella that wasn’t fully removed. I hope your refrigerator (and all the cooling rooms the eggs have been in prior to you buying it) have cleanroom standards and humidity control!

The EU sells unrefrigerated eggs because they’re fresher - they spoil significantly faster than American eggs.

Why would we sell something that expires quicker, if it’d reduce food waste by having a longer shelf life? Stores here don’t like to throw away expired products instead of selling them.

Consider that the more reasonable answer is cultural differences. Many Americans have an extremely naïve view of agriculture. They would see their eggs with some dirt on it, and would flip out instead of Googling “wtf is a cloaca?”… it’s a similar reason why Americans put tons of unnecessary additives and coloring into their foodstuffs.

(And yes, of course the EU’s rules are far from being perfect, but my common sense and science shows that unwashed eggs should be superior. I like eggs btw.)

I, too, normally eat my eggs with the shell still attached.

And you realize that egg shells are porous? Unwashed eggs are sealed, and that’s one of the reasons why Europe can sell eggs without even refrigeration.

And then when you get past all that, they suddenly want a group interview… like, sit in a room with many other candidates and have an interview.

All houses have at least one urinal. The cool thing is, you’re also able to wash your hands in it afterwards!

Nice, a classic «а у вас негров вешают»

Do your landlords not have any requirements to provide even a communal washing machine? In Sweden, and probably most other countries, the law says you have to have it within reasonable distance, otherwise the apartment isn’t considered “livable”.

Or at the least, a violation of the Logan Act.

Harshest punishment requires the warning and ignoring of it.

Does it say that in the law code? I thought that being ignorant of the law doesn’t matter for most prosecutions (“ignorantia juris non excusat”)

Travel to a different state and have sex for only $100? What a cheapskate.

Does he really think $500M would significantly change a city? As if the city would get any part of it, or that Dubai is something to desire…

I cant think straight for days.
