The Hangout: Makenshi is bribing EP's children with candy. Watch out!

I was telling the wife about the gas prices I had heard about in Cincinnatti today, and we pulled into Kmart. I about had a fit. It's rediculous. I'm gonna have to quit my job so I can afford the gas.


wait...

That reminds me of something my dad told me. Apparently when they first moved here 19 some odd years ago, he couldn't find a job at all. He's not the kind of guy to go on unemployment but he had 2 little kids and a baby(me) to support so he did it. 2 weeks later he found a job, but he made more money on unemployment than he did actually working.

We pay more.

Our money is worth more.

[Strongbad]

Ahem.

1 USD = 1.08 CD

Get that trash out of my face.

See my previous post. But, if needed, I'll take the time to convert everything.

That's not correct. Waaaaaaay back in the day I had a CAN dollar, and took it to the bank. They gave me 74 cents.

Whatever. Our gas is higher quality. I don't actually know that, but there is no way I am wrong.

About 10 years ago, yup.

Some truckers claim it is, actually.

I used to work at an apartment complex where people made money for not having a job/husband/self-worth.

They got their rent paid, got a utility allowance, and got to keep whatever was left over. They freeze their kids in the windter, and burn them up in the summer so they can keep the utility cash.

And they get more money for having more babies.

Shit, I forgot to return some movies to blockbuster. =\

Then it must be true.

Clever thread title.

Ok, I'll admit I don't actually know the exchange rate today. I just assumed it was the same as it used to be.

It's like this over here. Everywhere. ¬_¬

Fucking cesspool.

It's ok to be comfortable in the past, ya geezer.
