Please type up a compelling reason just for me

Here's another video just on that!

When I made the last payment on my student loan I got a similar letter. Something along the lines of "it appears you have made your last payment, but we still need to review the account to confirm. If you dont get another invoice from us then it's all good." I then got an invoice for about $1 which was the interest that gained on the account from the time I mailed the last cheque and the time they cashed it.

I'm going to assume this person sent in something that looked like a payment which triggered the "looks like you made your last payment" letter but then accounting realized the payment was phony and sent an invoice.

It is the largest positive impact a single person can have on the environment. Kurzgesagt video with the analysis.

As a vegetarian for decades, it's also cheaper, often healthier, and isn't difficult at all once you find some new recipes you like. You also don't need to switch all at once. Ease into it by cooking one vegetarian meal a week and then increase it as you find ones you like.

You don't own anything you purchase on Steam

Games sold on Steam are not required to use Steam's DRM. There are lots of DRM free games on Steam. Steam is only required to be installed to purchase/download them but not to run them. After download, the game files can be copied and ran on any computer without any verification.

Why don't I strap on my job helmet and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into Jobland where jobs grow on jobbies!

That's literally the law Ontario courts rulled cannot apply to topless women as it is discrimination.

On July 19, 1991, a sweltering and humid day, Gwen Jacob, a University of Guelph student, was arrested after walking down a street in Guelph, Ontario while topless after removing her shirt when the temperature was 33 °C (91 °F) and was charged with indecency under Section 173(1)(a) of the Criminal Code

Also legal in Ontario, Canada. A woman was arrested for walking around topless in hot weather. She was finned by police but topless men in the area were not. Ontario courts eventually rulled this was discriminatory but the provincial government did not appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada so the ruling only applies in Ontario.

I was a funeral director in Ontario, Canada. The law here is that the contract you sign with the crematorium will have a cremation number which will be stamped into a metal disk and that disk will be placed with the remains. After cremation, the disk will be in the cremated remains. People who receive the cremated remains can check that the number on the disk matches the number on the contract they signed.

This system stops honest mistakes but nothing stops people from intentionally swapping disks. Say a funeral home worker is filling urns with a batch of cremated remains they recieved from the crematorium. They accidentally put remains A into the urn for family B and remains B into the urn for family A. The worker should swap the remains...but swaping the disks is easier. Most people I've worked with would do the right thing but the system still relies on people being honest.

...on what?

There was a study done where police K9 units where told they'd be testing the accuracy of the dog's ability to find drugs. In actuality, they were testing the handlers. Handlers were told drugs were hidden in a certain location, but there wasn't actually drugs there. Despite that, all their dogs alerted several times to the location the handlers were told about.

I almost had never seen people mocking smokers for example or even people who are addicted to drugs, while it's normalized to mock fat people

I feel this is because things like smoking, drinking, and drug use are all immediately recognized as addictions people can struggle to overcome, but the same isn't true for over eating. Even anorexia is clearly thought of as an eating disorder, but do obese people have an eating disorder? I'd say they do. I think the only reason it's not thought of as a disorder is because it's so common.

I mean...you can. All lawsuits start with an application at a courthouse and that application can say whatever the plaintiff wants.

Here's youtube lawyer LegalEagle reviewing some crazy ones. Like a man who sued David Copperfield for stealing magical powers granted to him by God. Lawsuits can say literally anything in their initial application.
