There's a happy medium. I have a slightly newer VW GTI (2017) with a touchscreen but there are still buttons and dials for basically everything. It's a perfect infotainment system if you ask me :)

He did it before and he'll do it again. The last round of tariffs was backbreaking and this one will be worse.

I work for a small business and we're still doing okay but all those tariffs get passed directly to consumers. If it costs 7.5% more to import something, it will get sold for 7.5% more.

And that is the low end of tariffs.

So I just watched it for the first time earlier this year and honestly it wasn't bad. It's cheesy (and by most measures not a great film), but it was genuinely fun to watch.

This is sort of beside the point you're making, but a lot of 1st/2nd generation Latinos still look down on immigrants. "We did it the hard way, so they should have to as well" similar to bootstrap mentality.

It's some real mental gymnastics, but I've had several latina girlfriends over the years and some of their families were poor or super well off, but they openly hated Mexicans and/or Puerto Ricans.

That number isn't really that surprising.

How many degrees are off from the avg tho? Just something to compare it to.

Even if he lunges it's "just" assault, brandishing, terroristic threats. The dudes an idiot but that's not attempted murder.

Could be anywhere, it's legal in a lot of the US but nobody partakes because it draws unwanted attention.

That's sad to hear. It's been a long time since I've played any sports games and I had a hankering recently but everything has shit reviews and I keep coming across stories like yours.

Remember a game would come out with everything you need to enjoy the game? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
