Just because one is a felon doesn't mean "it's all over". Case in point, Jeremy Meeks


In many states you lose your right to vote, you lose your right to firearms, you lose your right to privacy since you're now a known felon, you have almost no chance of getting a white collar job or a high paying job unless you were already connected before the felony and very wealthy. Poor people who get felonies often get tougher sentences because they can't afford the lawyers of the wealthy. Pretty sure for most people a felony severely limits any chances of a life that isn't just scraping by or in the best case middle class.

Use case? :O


Poor people simply don't buy grocery, in fact many of them haven't "bought" anything except lottery tickets and an occasional pizza in decades.


Why not stick them on your back and just peel one off when you need to give one off?


Twizzler is not organic matter is it?


Or you listen to podcast


So a typo.


Wouldn’t a typo be more like mintue instead of minute.

I wrote an entirely wrong word spelled entirely correctly.

Wikipedia has this to say about typos:

A typographical error (often shortened to typo), also called misprint, is a mistake (such as a spelling mistake)[1] made in the typing of printed (or electronic) material. Historically, this referred to mistakes in manual type-setting (typography). The term includes errors due to mechanical failure or slips of the hand or finger,[2] but excludes errors of ignorance, such as spelling errors, or the flip-flopping of words such as "than" and "then". Before the arrival of printing, the "copyist's mistake" or "scribal error" was the equivalent for manuscripts. Most typos involve simple duplication, omission, transposition, or substitution of a small number of characters. (emphasis mine)

Hmmm. Definitely spending way too much energy here.


It isn't an error of ignorance, if you knew it was minute though?

Your quote mentions "scribal error". Your spelling part of the brain knew what it wanted to write. The writing part inserted a different word. Now my lack of knowledge of brain parts is an error of ignorance, so 'spelling part of the brain' isn't a typo.


You have to clean up your own hairs too. They don't bring a broom, I think


Why make such a lazy assumption?

From their FAQ:

Q: Won’t my floor end up covered with hair?

A: Our barber credo says it all – no hair left behind! Every Shortcut barber carries a drop cloth, so your space stays clean and tidy.


It's logically conceivable that they added it within five minutes of me posting the comment


It's logically conceivable that you should do more research before posting ignorant comments

Go check the wayback machine then


It's possible they paid off the wayback machine to make it look like they did it when they opened. /s


There is no way scarcely was being serious. It has to be a joke, no?


It's scarcely a joke


Doubling down on potentially being a dick is ballsy...let me get you a job application.


Did Travis (uber) go to one of those places?


Was the doctor able to tell over the phone you lost a tooth?


Haha no. I broke my front tooth only 1/2 way. I was talking normally. In fact, I wasn't even going to see a dentist that night, as I had dinner plans, but my wife insisted I fix it that night. Ended up making dinner anyway since people eat really late in NYC.
