Did you mean Greenland? Iceland looks in the 0-20% category.

Or am I just not getting a joke...

Not sure what kind. A juvenile Coopers or Red Tailed is my best guess.

Yes so exploited that the employees routinely rank it as one of the best places to work almost every single year. In N Out pays their employees more than 5 guys, by a fucking lot. Last I checked the starting wages at In N Out was $15/hour while 5 guys is barely minimum wage. Store managers at In N Out make 6 figures easy. Full time employees have access to 401k and profit sharing, dental, medical, and vacation accrual. Every single body in that company is promoted from within and all that way up the corporate ladder is people who started by mopping floors at some point.

I don't really care if you like some other hamburger better than another, but you're talking out your ass if you think In N Out keeps its prices lower with unhappy employees.

Sounds like the Redwing Iron Rangers haha. People either love that shoe or say it's a trash waste of money and should get X brand instead. Then it's just back and forth anecdotes and people accusing improper care etc

styleforum is usually pretty good about shoes, but they lean pretty hard into dress shoes and I don't know the name of the style, but ivy league sneakers is what I'll call them.

My wife knocked out at least two full cowl sweaters between the completion of right sock and left sock. A lot of winters with one nice sock though.

Just saw this in the news and thought of this conversation: https://www.pcgamesn.com/minecraft/reddit

Reddit has been a kind of unofficial support channel for a lot of companies since it doubles as good pr to be visibly helping their community. For smaller companies it's also a lot easier to spin up a subreddit and try to attract people there for a free marketing and support platform. I see quite a few tech companies operate in that way, but Ubiquiti is one of the bigger ones that first comes to mind.

With the rise of Discord, I think Reddit is losing some ground in that space much like individual forums before it, but Reddit still has a lot of historical data in it for troubleshooting things that aren't as common.

Why does cannabis have so many caution signs?

I haven't been to a Ghibli one, but I did go to one of the early Distant Worlds ones for Final Fantasy music and it was fantasitc. For Distant Worlds, they had a big screen playing scenes and I'm sure Ghibli would do the same. Should be a blast.

eta: oh yeah, is Joe Hisaishi still doing the conducting?
