i mean, if i'm honest, i've never met a female on the internet who was a piece of shit
at least, in the same way males tend to be
so that might have something to do with it
No, girls are assholes, just in a more roundabout way than guys are.

16 an hour for waiting tables? Shit son, where do you work? Sign me up
>tips
you can make that much as a waiter basically anywhere
it obviously vacillates
Thing is, tips aren't guaranteed
The business is required under Federal law to pay the difference if a server earns less than minimum ($7.25/hr) between wages and tips. So that's the bottom end. My philosophy is that I'd be earning minimum wage otherwise, so anything I make more than that is a blessing in and of itself.

We have the highest drinking age in the industrialized world, which has been shown to only further incentivize minors to drink underage. Rebellion is cool--I saw it on Star Wars once!
That's just because the kids are getting worse every generation Back in my day, we only drank water and gallons of high fructose corn syrup. AND WE LIKED IT!

whoa what how did I get in this thead I didn't click on this
Also, tipping should be absolved because it plagues the consumer and damages the market.
I used to be a waiter and a large portion of my income came from tips
But I like this, I just live off my tips and throw my wages in savings. I'd retire with a healthy sum if I made a career out of this.

Ryle, I request you use your American hands to type on an American keyboard yo change your username to an equally American one. Your current American username is American confusing me, because I keep thinking you are Das (American).

Because we work for green pieces of paper, and green is my favorite color!
Green is the color of grass, grass feeds rabbits. We eat rabbits. Therefore, grass is life and money is life. Thank you for your time and patronage.

I just made $16/hr waiting tables for six hours, all thanks to the west-most western practice of paying low wages and cutting out the middle man for the rest by having the consumer pay the server directly.
Why else is USA the best?

Well, I guess Obama can try, since there's no harm in that. Better what Obama's doing than what any Republitard would do.
Obama's a terrible leader
Low quality bait.jpg
He is an incredibly "meh" president, especially compared to his recent predecessors.

Sitting with Anderson? I was wondering what people hated.
Then I floated up to the kid and it all went dooownnnhilll
If it ended at Anderson then went to the epilogue, it would have been a pretty alright ending.

I'd like to add that wanting to die isn't necessarily tied to mental instability; there are states in the US that allow euthanasia so long as the person is making the decision sound of mind.

I'm saying that people project cultural issues onto racial traits. This is obviously not right.
Here's the line of thought:
Person finds cultural issue with person > assumes it's because of skin color > assumes next person of that skin color will have the same issue
Instead of tackling a problem as a cultural issue (which of course would not affect every person in an area, I feel like I need to iterate that), people just envelope everyone in that fold.
I'm just making a semantic point: the "problem" is with our culture, not our individual races. Certain people, through ignorance or "opportunity", lump race with ethnicity and confuse the subject. This leads to more ignorance and hate. Obviously not good.
Tl;dr race isn't ethnicity, people need to stop confusing them, it's a bad thing.

In terms of identification, you go by majority lineage; if you're from Scandinavian descent, but three generations back on your father's side you have an Asian person, you aren't Asian. Same thing here: Obama is black because given that it only traces back one generation, his ancestry is practically 50-50. On his census card, he would put "white" or "African american (black)". There isn't a mixed category.
And he's saying what I am. Correlation of violence to blacks in America is skewed in a way that negatively reflects on the individual because of their skin instead of their culture. This leads to the assumption that someone from Compton will act the same as someone from Johanessburg.

And I mean, it is semantic. One is governed by culture while the other isn't. Conflating one to the other bogs down discussion because it leads to the assumption the cultural expectations are based on genetics: the thing we're arguing against.

That was ethnicity I was just describing, Verb.
Race = Genetics
Ethnicity = Genetics + Culture
Ethnicity is impacted by social expectations/perceptions. Race isn't.
says who, exactly?
i would argue, as i stated earlier, that race includes culture as well
like... why can't it
Here's a PBS article with experts in the field discussing the differences.

"Black" being used interchangeably with African American (ethnicity).
Hint: Blacks in America do not have the same culture as blacks in the UK, African countries, Japan, etc. well yeah, but to me, that only further shows that it's a social construct...
you'd rather just call it ethnicity, but i'll go ahead and take it one step further
That was ethnicity I was just describing, Verb. Race = Genetics Ethnicity = Genetics + Culture Ethnicity is impacted by social expectations/perceptions. Race isn't.

That's more along the lines of ethnicity, though. well again, i barely even understand the difference, and even then, i'd probably just argue that it's a bit of a semantic one from what i do know about itEven then it's based on misconceptions; -snip- that's what i'm saying
so the difference lies in our definitions in race and ethnicity
i was under the impression that they're basically the same exact thing, with some... nebulous differences
like... cultural shit
but i mean, discussion of race is ALSO a discussion of culture
you'll often hear terms like "black culture" tossed around
they're the same
"Black" being used interchangeably with African American (ethnicity).
Hint: Blacks in America do not have the same culture as blacks in the UK, African countries, Japan, etc.
>Blacks in Japan
Lol
They're mixed into that "other" category that makes up roughly 1.5% of the population. Point isn't based on numbers (although I guess culture is based on how large the community is), just that someone who's lived in Japan all their life isn't going to act the same as a man raised in Detroit.

To clarify again- I brought up Sickle Cell specifically because it correlates. The cause of Sickle Cell is a trait involving hemoglobin. This trait originates from Africa, as due physical traits of blacks. Race is a mixture of genetics, ethnicity is genetics and culture. For the same reason that blacks have higher melatonin counts, they have a higher chance of having a blood disorder: those traits date back to Africa. This has nothing to do with culture.
