Have you ever been influenced?

yo mom called, she wants her weave back.

 

do i believe hotwater's statement? negatory.

 

Maybe by youtube videos.

 

If you don't take brands seriously then it's just a form of capitalism where anyone can make the same product and sell it and market it and then that's just even more waste in the world cause a supplier won't sell as much but they're producing the product and the consumer doesn't care where they get it from as long as it's the cheapest so I feel like there needs to be less suppliers really and stop all that capitalism stuff going on.

I see it in my little town all the time, a new supermarket opens up or something and then the old supermarkets still stock the same quantities, but the new supermarket take 50% of the business away = 50% more waste on the old business, gets thrown in the bin, supermarket loses money, prices go up. One reason I choose to purchase from local businesses if I can and not supermarket chains that need to compete against each other.

 

Funny thing is if you told me you’ve heard that word used in any other context I wouldn’t believe you.

 

i think it's always been the same general context. but not necessarily cb/trucker talk, just someone saying "no" in slightly different language.

 

No one around here ever uses that word.

I suppose from your perspective no one ever says ‘That’s wicked mean pissa”, “Rippah” or “The Hub”

 

you're right, i don't think i've ever heard those things said in real life. maybe the hub, although not necessarily in the same context.

i knew that new england had its own accent, but i didn't realize that you guys had an entirely different language from us midwesterners.

 

i like to think i'm pretty good at, had a lifetime of experience, not spending money i don't have on things that don't interest me.

only one thing in my life i regret was buying a boat the one time in my life i might have been able to afford to buy land instead.
i do owe at least partial credit for that error to someone other then myself.
internet didn't exist yet, and talk radio, if it existed it would have been just getting started and was outside of my awareness either.

at the time it seemed like a not bad idea, no property taxes and they weren't yet chaising people off of living on them.
but i don't know any way i could have grown enough to eat on it, and not business person enough to have kept up moorage rent doing so.

maybe i could have found some place legal and free to tie up at, but it would still have taken two people to get through the locks between lake union and out into the sound to head over to other islands and peninsulas.

well that was mid 70s. after i'd "quit" the railroad and before i'd ever been to bed spring acres, ashland, eugene, medford, portland oregon, or smoked pot.

the only h.u.b. i know anything about is an acranym for a sort of galactic united nations. i think schmitz used it in his telzey amberdon stories.
the rest of those words, nope, i guess because of all the places i don't hang out or something. also i'm left coastal so i wouldn't know any eastcoastal terminology anyway.
left coastal inland mountanal, and don't hang out in boozoriums. those being another of those things to spend money on that don't interest me.

i did see the name hub on an iso (intermodal shipping) container. some sort of freight forwarding company of some kind i'm guessing.

 

It's called knowing your par. A good business person would not be inventorying much above their selling volume. This practice is very important, especially in the food and beverage business. If you are left with tons of non-sellable inventory you are incorrectly estimating your par.

 

What's Instagram and Facebutt?
