I see no explanation on FB of what "trending" means. Perhaps their definition is "stories FB cares about most." There is no false advertising, just whining rightwingers claiming to be victims as usual.
You are not the target market, the target market are people who are so damned lazy that they can't be bothered to take 10 minutes out of their drive to/from wherever to stop and fill the tank.
So I can get 0.05% at Boeing's credit union? No thanks. Why would I do that when GS pays 21 times more?
Because "savings" accounts are an awful deal if you're trying to actually make money off of the interest. If you have $10k that you can let sit in your savings account for 5 years, at a 1.05% APY you will make about $500 in that time. Tell you what, I'll give you that $500 up front if you let me hold on to that $10k for five years. Does that sound like a good deal now?
A savings/checking account is just a place to store your money on hand so that somebody can't break into your house and take it all. Go stick your money in a Roth IRA or a 401(k) instead if you actually want to save.
But "savings" accounts are great for getting a trickle of bonus while you park some of your cash you need for liquidity purposes. I'd rather get $500 over that 5 year period than $25.
I have the right to not be forced to breathe cancer inducing air from someone who chooses to pollute their own body with such things
No study has ever produced strong evidence that second-hand smoke carries health effects; all which have suggested such have been refuted. That's why second-hand smoke campaigns went away after the 90s, along with the campaigns about the dangers of watching TV in the dark.
Um, no. The day before yesterday, I saw a billboard proclaiming "Your little smoking buddy" with a picture of a child in a carseat.
If you re-read my post, you will see I said "If you think the only reason..."
I never mentioned "main goal" as you say. Sometimes shooting is not the best method for provocation. Especially, if you want the rest of the world on your side. Use your noggin before making accusations of "I know you are but what am I." That's not at all what I said. Perhaps it was too subtle for you.
FYI, I live in, and my daughter attends school, in this district. Here are a few details not in TFS (direct from LCPS):
In response to this incident, the Sheriff’s Office, Fire Marshal, LCPS and the CIA announced that this particular training program has been suspended until a thorough review of all procedures is completed.
As part of the training exercise last week, canine explosive detection training was conducted in areas inside and outside of Briar Woods. During the outside portion, a container holding the training material was hidden inside the engine compartment of a bus. At some point, a portion of the material appears to have fallen from the container into the engine compartment. The material that fell from the container was not recovered following the training.
On Wednesday night, the Sheriff’s Office and Fire Marshall’s Office used three canine units to inspect any buses that were parked at Briar Woods during the training exercise purely as a precaution. No further traces of the training material were found.
Saying that they "left some explosives on the bus" is a simplification.
It really doesn't. For example people think organic is no pesticides. But you can use "organic" pesticides. What pesticides are organic depends on state and country. And if you bothered to even read the regulations, exceptions and well anything. You would know. Organic is a label to charge more for "feel goods". But you didn't and you won't cus your the type of class A sucker they sell this shit too.
Regardless of your dislike for the definition or your other blatherings, it DOES have a specific definition.
A large number of people would speed all their free time not creating art or literature or learning a new language, they would spend it just the same way they do now. Watching TV, play video games, using mid [sic] altering substances, getting laid and appearing on Jerry Springer or one of the many clone shows now on TV. Basically wasting their opportunity to have a useful life.
Who cares? You don't need to be "productive" to feel fulfilled or happy.
Things you probably can't, and won't fully automate:

clergy
Clergy? Are you joking? Very ripe for automating. Hell, I bet there's already an app for that. I'm calling mine "Savior Machine" (hat tip to David Bowie).
I think you better add a lot of +'s to that. A CEO making only $250K would be laughed at by all the others. The company I work for pays the CEO $20M+ per year - and that is standard in this industry!
Then again, when we heard about the outcry about "Obamacare" (which is basically a watered down version of our healthcare system, btw), we could not fathom why anyone would NOT want it.
Because it was backed by a black man. Republicans had no problem with Romneycare (Massachusetts version of Obamacare) and Obamacare has its roots in past Republican proposals. Liberals and progressives wanted single-payer, aka Medicare for all.
OJ has more sugar in it that coke. At least if you believe the label. Is is "bad" for you. Well everything is so fuck it. I will enjoy my life and not be stuck with boring food for a life time. There isn't even any evidence that you live longer with these "healthy organic(WTF does that even mean) natural diet"...Probably feels like it however.
Organic has a very specific legal definition and can be found easily with a simple search.

That's why you're actually hourly up to 40 hours, after which you become salaried.
Only 36 months of security updates? You're easy to please, I'd expect at least 60.
And I want a pony!
So basically what you're saying is when the world has a problem, turn it off and on again.
I hate it when I get the blue-sky-of-death.
Porn is NOT a genuine health crisis.
In all fairness, it can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome.

used busses only cost about a grand or two but they needed to borrow busses from a school district?
Actually, they borrowed the whole school.

an ineptly failed false flag operation intended to justify continued war against brown people
Extremely inept, considering that the exercises were announced beforehand.
I wonder what is there to be gained by provoking them with militarily exercises?
Eat a little too much propaganda for breakfast?
The purpose of military training exercises is not to "provoke" somebody, that is childish and silly.
The purpose is to practice fighting in the conditions that a war might take place in. In case it happens.
If we wanted to "provoke" them, we would just fire artillery across the border, and watch them be provoked.
If you think the only reason we do exercises over there is to practice, then you're just eating a different brand of propaganda for breakfast.

Americans are free to make irresponsible choices that aren't available to Europeans.
Such as? The only thing I can think of is gun ownership. Otherwise, Europeans enjoy more freedom than Americans.
Such as the freedom to delude themselves into thinking they have it better. It happens every damn day.
