I don't want to be that guy but this is @Undisciplined's spending number from last week which was also reported in the last Newsletter.
He was in fact a real cheapskate this week.
reply
I sure hope you're right, because I don't remember going on a half-mil bender this week.
reply
Yes, it includes both fridays. I modified it out of fear of missing good stories from the previous friday.

YOLO
reply
Is it the same word they were laughing about for the hiding stackers? I really wanna know was that Yala or YOLO?
Sorry, I'm not good at slangs.
reply
No, they were calling them "Yella'", which is western slang pronunciation of "Yellow", which is short for "yellow bellied", which is slang for being a coward.
reply
Wow! Thanks.
How dare he, yeah I mean it. Who let us hide? Now I'm gonna call him names. Hindi too has a lot of good slangs. At least I'll be warming him so he doesn't laugh like I did. But first I'm gonna unhide.
YOLO is you only live once. It is something the kids say. I am cool and hip so I know all about it.
reply
Thanks. I really didn't get it. I enjoyed when they said the "Yella", but knowing this means a "Coward", I'm feeling like dumb. But I know it's their language, I understand 99.9%, what though I start sledging in Hindi, they won't understand 99.9%. ..
none of the top posts or comments had nothing to do with the fires in Los Angeles
