After work, I sold my Xbox to a guy who had just cashed his social security check and had earlier in the day purchased a brand-new Galaxy S4.

Anyone else have some good examples of American behavior?

Hope this helps.

A guy stopped me on the way in to the grocery store. He offered to go in and buy me steaks with his EBT card and sell them to me for half price so he could use the money for beer.

That's actually a really smart move. So how were the steaks?

We have a female student in our school that drives a brand new fucking Infinity. Is that 'Murica, or is that everywhere?

I would have a few years ago. I guess DeWine has undercover agents out offering to do this and arresting people for EBT fraud.

Wait, so Sherm would have been arrested in this scenario, or the low life?

Sherm would have bought the steaks, not the EBT. I see no crime in that.

George Washington University students make Infinity look like a Ford Focus. Everytime I'm around that campus I see multiple cars worth over 100k and driven twat students.

The guy said that he was going to use his EBT to do it. Like I said, the guy would have been undercover. They are trying to crack down on this stuff like crazy.

The high school my wife works for has tons of uber-rich families (at least a few billionaires) and the cars most of these kids drive are ridiculous. One kid drives a Mercedes G class. Got it when he turned 16. They start at well over $100k and I'm sure it's not a base model.
