I can say, with absolute certainty, that is not the norm.

For every sale they make, there are countless others they don't. And they still have to put in the time.

I've gone through many realtors looking for a house, all of them gave me hours of their time and didn't see a penny in return.

That said, I don't think realtors are necessary and we should push the idea that people shouldn't use them unless they think they need to.

Good point. I'm not a fan of BL, but I will choose it over almost any craft beer I've had.

That shit is just bonkers. No wonder it doesn't sell volume.

Smart business move.

they pissed off everyone else.

Who exactly is everyone else?

Seems like bud light is the meathead beer for jocks at college parties or cookouts.

for being a soulless international conglomerate.

I think this rhetoric would hit harder if the alternatives were willing to sacrifice profit to give us a better deal.

That's what I like to see.

I'd say it's both.

Per your article:

A plea by a criminal defendant that they will not contest a charge.

Your original comment:

“Not guilty” doesn’t necessarily mean “innocent”. Often it just means “not confessing”

"Not guilty" means you are contesting the charges. No contest means you're not confessing and not contesting the charges.

the prosecution has to go through the motions to prove he’s guilty.

This is only true if the defendant contests the charges. "Not confessing" and "contesting" are two different things.

It's a fad that will pass with time.

Tribalists are even worse.

Really?

Why is it man is the default and not human? 'Man' exists in both 'man, woman, and human.' Why even assume the default is male when talking about a fireman? (aside from the fact firemen have historically been male)

Really?

I guess it depends on what you consider to be a 'movement.'
