Housing and the cost of it is definitely a big part of the problem.

They did a large study of homelessness in California that ended a year or two ago and it concluded that it was mostly the price of housing.

I have like four or five of these.

Oh come on he isn't talentless, who else can possibly "write" a song about enjoying another, more notable song during a season (and "sample" that song so thoroughly in it that it's basically just a shitty cover)?!

Every slope is a slip and slide when you're dealing with the "freeze peach" crowd.

Oh, except when they're suppressing speech they don't like...then suddenly the "freeze peach" absolutism just doesn't apply and we all living on a flat plane.

I got a real one. We made money on our wedding because the wedding and receptions were so cheap.

I just use butter to cook my eggs. I also pay attention to the bonds that the bottom of the egg form with the pan. By using a stainless turner on a stainless pan you can get between the egg and the bonds it's forming with the pan. The more often you manipulate it and make sure those bonds don't form, the more "non-stick" the egg is.

I usually pan flip single eggs cooked with this method because the egg slides around the pan easily.

My wife has a problem doing the same though, so I buy a couple of the disposable Teflon junk pans on a recurring basis.

I've been looking at the pirotech pans which are supposed to be nonstick and fully recyclable, but I've been unable to find a lot of reviews on them.

I played it for just a couple of hours and I understood why you were saying that. It was either dance around like an idiot or make no progress. I didn't like it and stopped playing it.

Reminds me of when some dumbass i worked with was ranting about owing the government too much money. Turns out he was borrowing from his 401k to do a home renovation. Which of the 1000 things you have to check as read and agreed didn't clue you into the fact that you will be penalized for doing that?

This is similar to the property tax structure in California.

You get a property tax rate on the purchase price, then it only goes up 2% a year or inflation (whichever is lower).

It makes it pretty impossible to be taxed out of your house. It has downsides though because it applies to commercial real estate and landlord properties as well.

This is fucking hilariously evil and short-sighted.

Hold on honey, before we get our Wendy's I'll have to check the wsj for the historical prices on chicken nuggies first.

Awesome song, was just thinking how it makes a really great test for new audio equipment (especially for the mid-bass / bass part of the system).
