1. Real reason is debt payments left after the buy out by Golden Gate Capital in 2014 and the fact that Golden Gate sold off all their properties for $1.5 billion, paid themselves a dividend of $1.5 billion and leased them back. Now restaurants have debts payments and lease payments to make. Similar to Toy-R-Us.

  2. Yep, VC buyouts are a complete scam, even when they aren't asset stripping. The same on the UK high street. Publicly listed companies find it tough, private ie VC debt-loaded, can't survive now that they have to pay interest.

  3. Well if he doesn't get around to sending the reminder letters, then I think blame is 50-50 at worst.

  4. Maybe if the Democrats hadn't ousted the last speaker who worked with them, Ukraine wouldn't be in this position.

  5. That's a pretty interesting view of it. Who tabled the motion and who voted for it?

  6. Even reddit is becoming less and less reliable, swarms of AI and comment steaming bots "talking" to each other.

  7. J'ai 2 diplomes universitaires et aucun ne correspond à mon travail ou très peu.

  8. My dude I’m lazy as shit, but I work 80 hours a week because they pay me 300 an hour. In my experience, most people want to work, no one wants to work and still be struggling to get by.

  9. It’s a complicated set up because I dont just work that job, but when I do just work that job, yes.

  10. Shouldn't the US be paying Ukraine for destroying surplus stocks of munitions?

  11. Bear in mind that this government does not spend money on those things for ideological reasons. Someone like Greene who will complain about people who need money here will vote against spending relatively small amounts to support an ally against an enemy, but would also refuse to spend money on people in the US.

  12. I'm British and there are definitely 2 things wrong with this breakfast, no beans and no bacon, everything is not fine with this.

  13. In many poor countries, people find clever ways to be useful in order to make money. That's why whenever I looked lost in Morocco, groups of people would descend on me to offer me directions in exchange for donations.

  14. You don't have to look lost. Most places I went I had people demanding to guide me and sometimes even fighting over me.

  15. My experience was similar. I will say, though, that I did meet some amazing people there. And negotiation is very much a part of their culture. By day 5, I got the hang of it, but when I first arrived, I found it quite intimidating

  16. I had a great time. It just got a bit tiring that pretty much everyone was trying to scam.

  17. They’re so bored because their entire personality is how they worked 110 hours a week for 50 years without taking a sick day. So once they retire, they’re confounded with how to spread their discomfort for life.

  18. Bear in min that their work day is like an Elon Musk workday. It includes reading the newspaper, playing golf and bullying service workers/people on twitter.

  19. How do you think MTG got elected? Edit: Illiteracy.

  20. I think this trait is way more pronounced in redditors. They look at a child prodigy and go "What a sad childhood". They look at a rich dude and go "He needs to die"

  21. I never thought I'd say this, but that guy should be given some airsoft gear.

  22. I was under the impession that smuggling brought in a lot of money.

  23. Not gonna lie, I thought it's either a sex list or a killboard.

  24. I think most of Netflix strategy is pay a lot of money for big name stars and skip the plot because it brings in eyeballs 

  25. Come for the prestige projects, but actually watch and stay for endless reruns of networks shows.

  26. Stardust, X-Men, Kick Ass, Kingsman, all great. Then came Kingsman 2 and 3 and something went massively wrong. Still, he's got enough clout to get Argylle greenlit on the premise alone. It sounded like it should have been great. Even watching it and all the elements were there to make it great it just ... wasn't. It fell flatter than Cavill's flat-top. And it wasn't the over-the-top action or ridiculous story; skating through oil is no more outlandish than anything in Kingsman, but maybe it's because it doesn't feel fresh or original from Vaughn anymore. I respect him for trying to make an original IP at a time when Hollywood is flooded with remakes and reboots and sequels and requels to every conceivable franchise out there, but I don't think Kingsman/Argylle is the IP he thinks it is.

  27. It sounds like Argylle was an idea for a Kingsman movie that didn't get made. Which seems like a pretty bad move, but what do I know?

  28. I don't think you understand, you need to try not being poor. If you you didn't plan ahead and get born to rich parents then it's really on you.

  29. Two trademarks, Chili Crunch and Chile Crunch. Just for fun, he bought the other name off another company, so much for an intergral part fo his business' image.
