Some perspective from someone who was in the industry:
1. Friday wedding. Saturday is what pays the bills.
2. "Partial refund" on a rebooked date?
For those specific reasons, and those alone, I'm against them. The loss of revenue is hard. A full refund would be losing out on $20k-$30k, but you gotta bite the bullet in this scenario. The credits are great, yes.. but you're telling me if an even more expensive event scheduled for November 20th, you'd still not give them the full $16k? Ridiculous.
A bride is being sued by her wedding venue after requesting a refund as her fiancé died before the wedding
The family were told there is no refund clause that covers death
The people of France are rioting over nothing while the people of Texas have suffered with quiet respectful dignity through eleven whole years of Dak Prescott.
@larry22717 It's cool, but it's an honorable mention. The real most incredible feat of human engineering is the printer.. because that shit is just magic.
Sometimes it works.
Sometimes it doesn't.
@ShawnAJefferson 3. Agreed
4. Agreed
5. Maybe? I think most of his issues are coaching related. I'd like to see him earn his spot again.
6. Not certain either, but you might be on to something.

Give up Playcalling.
Talent is there, coaching is shooting ourselves in the foot week after week. Two simple requests. If not given either, I'm on the fire Sark train.
@larry22717 I've lived in a few sketchy places growing up. I've felt that fear a few times, but honestly as long as you keep your nose clean and don't make yourself a target, you're fine.
Are we seriously pretending those engineers weren't having the time of their lives making a car do stupid shit?
There's about a million YT videos of that limited by a much stricter budget.
Hundreds of thousands of hours of elite engineers’ time wasted developing a
vehicle system with zero practical applications beyond bumping up share prices and making people on the internet go “wow neat.”
As much as I dislike the 24 team Playoff, I think we could see an improvement in OOC schedules with this.
You can afford to drop a few games now. Schedule someone worth a damn.
It's honestly masterful stuff. I consider myself pretty good at finding loopholes and even I'm amazed at more than half the bullshittery I've read about.
Because the best ones are practically always 100% correct in their interpretation and require a rewrite of the rule rather than a "no, can't do that."
@larry22717 From the outside-in, the most important member of an F1 team is that guy who comes up with all the loophole shenanigans.
That seems to be the antithesis of Tesla's "I don't give a fuck about viability, make the thing and then walk it back at production" approach.
Realistically, zero chance the thrust version becomes street legal in 95% of the country.
In the other 5% I can't see it being much more than a gimmick that might not even be used.
Real news here is the performance model without the rocket and thruster. I like the look, I just can't drop $50k on a reservation.
Elon Musk flips a vehicle upside down and everyone claps and cheers. But when I do it, suddenly I'm "recklessly endangering children" and "unfit to be a school bus driver".
Because I am held against my will to watch games of the teams I picked before I could probably even put together a coherent sentence. At least the Astros did okay for a bit there the past decade.
I wish I was old enough to stay up and watch the '05 Texas team win it all. I had a bedtime then.
If you’re an Ohio State, Georgia, Alabama, Notre Dame, or Texas fan, why even tune into the regular season? You’re making the CFP every single year barring a disaster.
