@FreddyLA7 Those are sick. There’s definitely a break in period. Outdoor concert in the sweat and heat might not be the play for the first time wearing them
Just a bit of math here------1.5 Million in the entire OKC Metro vs. 8.5 Million in the 5 buroughs. 500-600k estimated at Thunder Parade. "over a million" estimated at Knicks parade. So let's just say 1 in 3 people attended in OKC vs 1 in 8 in NYC. I guess it just means more here
If I had Elon's money I would solve world hunger instantly.😡
Sent from a device purchased with with a sum of money that could have been used to feed an Ethiopian family for a year, but wasn't, because my generosity is purely hypothetical.
USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.
Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.
I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."
"They just come with the table, man."
They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.
This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.
I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.
"Did we…?"
"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."
Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.
My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."
Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.
I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.
Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.
I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.
Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.
Been brushing up on the discourse and I’ve decided that every single person is richer than me is a greedy bastard and every single person poorer than me is a loser. I and only I have the exact right amount of money.
if you'd like to also make a trillion, it's not that hard
all you gotta do is figure out renewable space flight, electric vehicles, self-driving, internet payments, modern AI, neural implants, the biggest social media app, satellite internet, and underground tunnels
