oh and on topic, have you ever seen one of those shopping developments with a actual house in the middle of the parking lot?

:(
The Milwaukee ikea has one of the most recent holdout houses and I find it hilarious.

They are at least on the edge of it all, but I'm not sure what their endgame is. At this point, ikea has plenty of parking and decent entry roads without them. They just have a mediocre house that sits on a now super busy street with no neighbors (or their lawns) and a ****** parking lot.

Nobody is going to buy it from you for anything close to the 4-500k you were offered, and IKEA won't bother to pay the 1.9m you are asking for... They will just send a shell purchaser to low-ball you every once and a while.

I take it back, it's not actually up against the parking lot. They are probably developing a strip mall and mattress store around it so maybe someone will buy it...

What exactly goes into your smoothie if the fruits and vegetables come in powder form?
A smoothie pack, with other fruits and spinach and kale in little frozen pucks.
Turmeric w/black pepper, milk thistle, spirulina, resveratrol, half a frozen banana, vegetable protein powder, creatine, fresh ground cinnamon, hemp heart.
I think that's it.

I’ve tried my best to not have a group that runs on presentation decks and have mostly been successful at this. Until I wasn’t.

i just had my first planning session with my boss and she’s asked me to do eight ******* presentations for various topics over the next month. Of course, the impact of not being deck-driven means that I don’t have a lot of decks that I can reuse :fu:

Have you considered telling her to shove it and roll our flipping double birds?

Seriously though, **** powerpoint. pass that **** down the chain of command.

God damn it man. My niece is 11 years old and has the reading ability of a 1st grader. I'm not saying I was a genius at 11 or anything, but I feel like at that age, you should really be able to read more or less "young adult" books, something like Harry Potter, etc.

She goes to one of those ******* super-expensive Waldorf schools, and it seems her curriculum is more in line with training her to be a 19th-century pioneer wife. I've play the Oregon Trail; that life kinda sucks. No reason to spend mad cash on that ****.

Not an argument for Waldorf but could she be dyslexic? My daughter was a terrible reader until we discovered that. She still is but with the access to other methods she is in her third year at UCLA now.

I’m a huge Waldorf skeptic (look up Rudolph Steiner if you want to know why) and I really question how well their model can handle students with learning disabilities.
