Read the image. They charge a higher premium if you don’t use their auto pay.
The only way I can see around it is if you make annual payments instead of monthly. Fewer payments, less fees.
If we’re feeling petty, though, we can accept the higher premium, and send them weekly (or even daily) check payments instead of monthly. Let them process 30 transactions per month instead of just one.
Yo, ho. Haul together. Hoist the colours high.
Why trade with Canada when we can just start a war?
The problem with your scenario is “competitive”. You’re describing single player competitive gaming. Few gamers participate solely in such games: single player free for all. You won’t find the relevant skills while players are participating in such games.
However, the overwhelming majority also participate in various forms of cooperative game play. PvE Raid groups. Team-based PVP competition. Air traffic control is a cooperative system, not a competitive one, and it is this aspect of gaming that is relevant here.
The same players who seemingly lack emotional control and maturity while engaged in single-player competition are very often also players who patiently carry newbs through raids and dungeons. This is exactly the behavior we expect from a controller.
A player who engages in the behavior you describe toward his own teammate is a player who doesn’t remain on the team.
I stand by my assertion. Social aptitude and communication are essential skills for modern gamers.
This video, full volume, on a loop, on every screen in the house.
I’m hoping Corporal Couchfucker and the cabinet decide to oust him, but the earliest that would realistically happen is the end of January, after the new Congress is seated and he becomes eligible to run for two full terms himself.
USS Abraham Lincoln departed for a 180-day deployment on November 21st, 2025. That was ~270 days ago, and they are scheduled to remain on station until USS George Washington relieves them later this week.
Normally, the Navy schedules a port call for its carriers every 30-45 days. Lincoln hasn’t had a port call since a one-day stop in Guam back in December.
What Trump is really saying is that ships that had been scheduled to participate in the exercises are being diverted to support the Iran war. The Navy is reducing its presence in the South Pacific and repositioning them in the Indian ocean.
Donnie asked South Korea for help in Iran, and South Korea told him to pound sand.
I think I saw that movie.
Nah. They are Mt. Olive. Not even Vlasic, let alone something actually edible.
and only a fraction of that would actually end up on the food.
Further, if you’re cooking, you’re probably making more than one serving at a time. 2-4 servings in the pan, and only consuming a fraction of what was initially sprayed, 1/4-second spray per serving is about right.
Respond with a couple of emojis. No actual text. Doesn’t particularly matter what emojis you choose, just pick a couple at random. The more obscure the better.
If they aren’t going to bother reading what you wrote, let them try to find meaning in 🥔🗑️.
Social aptitude and Communication are critical skills for online gaming. Your “doubt” is about 20 years out of date.
Raw tomatoes are disgusting, both in taste and texture. Blend them up, cook the ever-loving fuck out of them and they become delicious.
They don’t buy enough yachts and private jets and other manufactured property that would put a worker to work to produce it.
I would argue that “Real Estate” and “Politicians” are de facto “stocks”.
The upper class doesn’t buy anything but stocks.
It’s a little more complicated than that… They have 7 years from the time you stopped paying to file a suit. If you make a payment to them after 6 years, the clock resets, and they get another 7 years.
Technically, the clock stops while you’re out of the country, but if they don’t know when you left and when you returned, they don’t know how much time they have.
Your argument stems primarily from that point.
The purpose of contacting them is not to identify what phone number will be making the call. The purpose of contacting them is to ensure they are not currently in the middle of a mass casualty incident that you don’t know about.
They don’t care what number you will be making the call from. They care that they have the time and resources available to take it. If your test call is successful, you will tell them that it was a test call.
As for your argument about not having a phone to make the initial call, it’s 2026, not 1926. You have a phone, it’s in your hands right now, and you’re using it to read this.
