The comment was in reference to their misunderstanding rather than any doubt about what landlords are doing.

I think you misunderstood the issue. House/apartment rental companies use software to price fix with each other.

I believe they're referencing Dr. George Tiller.

Yeah, but I don't know anyone whose cursive is more legible than their printing.

I think the part of the intention there is obscuring what they're writing to some degree.

Maybe you don't enjoy the process of learning or they're taught poorly, but it is fun later when you recognize all the references to that literature.

I don't even know how you keep the food in your mouth chewing that long. After a minute most of it has managed to make it's way to my throat without any effort by me to get it there.

Depends on where he lives and what he wants to do. He's still a felon and in some states it affects your right to vote, right to own a gun, receive government assistance, etc.

The goal is to mess up price history. So it will have a list price of $50 but with a coupon to make it $35. Then a sale day happens and they lower the price to $40. It's 20% off! Good deal.

It doesn't really help if you're comparison shopping with alerts. I don't know that Amazon thinks you're going to go to another site.

"Approve my claim or i'll kill you" is not a warning. it's a threat.

Yep that would be a threat. That's not what she said though. She never said she'd do anything. She was just pointing out that someone was recently killed for the behavior they're exhibiting, so if they're going to keep doing that behavior, it stands to reason the same thing will happen to them.

The context is just her life. That she's attempting to apply to everyone always. The problem is not the question like she seems to assume. And her solution to ask "Where do you consider home?" is awkward and doesn't really help.

To note, the problem is the underlying assertion that they have to be from somewhere foreign when other people in the same area won't have that assumption applied to them. So the context the question is asked in matters a lot and her blanket statement completely takes that context out of it.
