  1. Iirc, student loans are simple interest loans. Google tells me the formula for a simple interest loan is: I (interest) = P (principal) x r (rate) x t (time periods). It also tells me the "average" student loan interest rate is: "For the 2017-2018 school year, the fixed rate on undergraduate Direct loans (subsidized and unsubsidized) is 4.45%. The rate for graduate or professional Direct unsubsidized loans is 6.00%. Direct PLUS loans have an interest rate of 7.00%. However, that doesn't mean all your debt has the same interest rate." As you all know, Im not so good at math. Can one of you pump those numbers through the formula and let me know if its accurate?
  2. @Amentep: Im not debating the high cost, its her math that doesnt work out. Over 6.5 years she supposedly paid $165000 but only $15000 was applied to the principal? I dont buy it and it sounds like another tweet designed to evoke a gasp.
  3. Student loans have a ridiculously low interest rate in the US too. That tweet smells like poopoo caca.
  4. Huh, my bad, I didnt know marinara was normally meatless (I usually add ground beef or Italian sausage). Im interested in a good meat sauce though!
  5. Do you have a good marinara recipe?
  6. The Navy was full of fatties even back in the late 80's and early 90's, but physical training is non-existent in that branch. There were even sailors that couldn't fit through a scuttle!
  7. Sir William Garrow would vomit in rage at this attitude, were he still alive.
  8. When your first reply is a load of tard, Im going to point and laugh and treat it as such. 60% of the time, every time, and qq will bring out the clowns. The other 40% of the time means Im laughing at something, or someone, who is funny. Imo, "the press" is trying to drive the narrative to be exactly opposite of whatever Trump says. He says these troops were uninjured, and also sheltering in bunkers, but were somehow subjected to a scary scary sounding "TBI". It made me lol a bit that half were already back in the field but the other half had to leave the country to get better. Did you know that all of them also got sand in their eyes from being in a blowy desert?
  9. Unfortunately, the 155mm projectiles are too expensive to buy.
  10. DurrHurr! Yeah, thats it!
  11. 34 US service members diagnosed with TBI from Iranian missile strike. Pathetic. But I guess they had to come up with something. Im 100% sure that "banging their shins on a footlocker" are under reported too!
  12. Have you tried any different "modes" on your tv (IE: Cinema, sports, dynamic, standard, etc.)?
  13. There will always be the extreme left / right that will never change their opinions, but Im hoping hes burned enough bridges in the middle to cost himself the election. Can I interest you in my current lord and savior, Andrew Yang?
  14. Whats the fried goodie in the background?
  15. The schadenfreude in me wants to see the wigs that would flip if he were to win a second term, the pragmatist in me wants him out as fast as possible. Hopefully I am denied the former.
  16. I have a drawer of misc cords that would make your husband proud. Im pretty sure I could power up ENIAC if anyone asks. 😛
  17. ^An in-law of mine uses exactly that method to heat their pool. Its pretty neat in its simplicity.
  18. Scientists create "strange metal".
  19. Aww man, it appears my beloved BG2 Cavalier has become a Fighter subgroup in 5E.
  20. https://www.foxnews.com/us/puerto-rico-hurricane-maria-aid-emergency-supplies-earthquake-fired Shocking!
  21. HBO is free on Comcast until 27 Jan so I caught Long Shot. It was very funny and had both my wife and I laughing hard.
  22. I dont remember being offended either. Again, for those of you in the dain bramaged seat, if you arent of my blood or love, all I can muster is "bummer". Putting it in your signature just further immortalizes your disfunction and creep.
  23. Whaaa? I really am indifferent to almost any murder as long as it doesnt affect me or mine. I find the crocodile qq from our residents of clown alley to be strange and disingenuous. Someone across the world gets chunked? Next we can delve into my liking of money and the wetness of water.
  24. EDIT: Nevermind, I see it was removed from Steam.
