Now try 183 pounds.

Calibrated isn't the right word.

Shake. The. Bag.

Learn?! What, did you go on a course or something? Most people don't have to learn such basic things.

Same to me, just had the option of less or no salt, which I didn't take.

Take them up Everest and see if they explode.

I always open crisp packets by bursting one end. Makes it less likely to rip down the side, but scares the s*it out of the person next to you.

If you're used to simply tearing the greaseproof paper bag open, you have to work out how to open the plastic ones; either pull apart or compress and pop. All new experiences have to be learnt, either by watching what other people do or experiment.

For example, it took me some time to work out how to open kitchen tongs of this sort:

You bash the top down to open them; pull the top up to fasten them closed - no instructions provided.

If "everybody knows" how something is done, no-one will tell you.

Why not just drink a whole litre?

I once spilt an entire pint and they refused to give me a replacement without paying. I wasn't that drunk, I managed to drive home without scrathing the car.

They don't add up for anyone, they stay the same percentage. £99 instead of £100 is a 1% discount. 3 billion of those things sold is also 1% less income for the business.

Why would that stop the correct price being shown? Everywhere but Montana should just do what we do in the UK - the label on the goods states the final price. Tax isn't mentioned at all, they just tell the truth about what you pay.

Where does sales tax go? To the state or the main government?

In the UK, they take huge amounts of taxes from income, sales, business, car ownership, and petrol, yet they still don't fix the roads. Well they do, but they fix the ones which didn't really need fixing, and they do 50 at once, spreading the workforce thin so they take months instead of days and cause tailbacks everywhere. Utter f****ng stupidity.

Why a geocache? They just chose to put it there for a laugh?

This?

would have put that at $2000.

I see you're infested with f****ng psycho, sorry cycle, lanes too.

The state and sometimes the local government.

The Feds get 18.3 cents per gallon on gasoline and the states grab their share. Most people wouldn't consider that a sales tax since it say $3.95 / gallon at the pump. It isn't as blatant as buying a $3.95 loaf of bread at the market and finding out it really costs $4.15. One is considered an excise tax, the other a sales tax like the terminology makes a difference.

One exception to a state sales tax is marijuana. Recreation marijuana has a 20% tax, medical 4%. I think this county adds 3% for recreational. The last ballot split recreational/medical. The recreational initiative passed and the medical failed.

I placed it to call attention to the ridiculous cost of the bridge. The road is a shortcut for me but a lot of people would never go there.

Most of the caches I've placed are on trails that are a bit more scenic. This one is what is referred to as a 'park and grab' meaning you might have to walk 100' rather than 6 miles.

Having the taxes different is just going to make more people pretend to be ill.

Point out why British food is bad. Especially compared to American.

Per head of population you're terrible. Scotland is actually the best.

Tarmac, bicycles, tyres, overhead valve engine, tubular steel, canals, thermodynamic cycle, coal-gas lighting, wave power, ...... there are hundreds -

I pity the morons who buy Apple products, one born every minute. I'll buy the superior more compatible half price stuff elsewhere.

I want to watch a colour blind fool get the traffic lights mixed up and die.

The laws in America are more strict for sexual things. You guys think public nudity is wrong, and can get arrested for it, even in your own home if someone looks through the window. Your age of consent is 2 years higher in half the country (although that may be because you take longer to grow up).

And the fact remains you have vast areas of land but don't fill them.

I have an illness I cannot describe to a doctor because I don't know anyone who has had that particular feeling, so what words do I use? For example how would you describe pain/hot/cold to someone who had never felt them?

Only girls like pink. It's a sickly colour. It's just red, but less of it.

Some of them are a bit difficult to fill.
