Dec 20, 2016 for background: Perry - who has totally had sex IRL... with a woman - records a "No Girlfriend" podcast... about being single. (..and, subtext, how being awk socially makes nerds develop certain elitist stances about themselves, and how that informs their out of touch conservative POVs.) but yeah, keeping razzing us because we think, lol, rick perry, lol, shouldn't lead the department of energy.
Dec 20, 2016 so powerful a phishing scam in an email, from a third world country, turned the entire federal election on its head. btw, the war on drugs isn't working, i champion weeds legalization, it's my body i can do what I want, if we legalize it and tax it, the government can make a large profit. If you think there's a profitable black market for cigarettes you are beyond f---ing r-----ed lmfao
Dec 21, 2016 Weed is pretty harmless. The problem with drugs though is that too much will destabilize the community. Society could fall apart if dangerous drugs(not weed ofc) aren't restricted.
Dec 21, 2016 Well, actually, I know ppl who buy cigs in cheap states like tx and sell in other parts of the country where cigs can go double what they go for here.
Dec 21, 2016 as a person still obsessed with narsh even i think perry's evoking of Immortal Technique - who hasnt been around for... a year? more? - to be quite sad
Dec 21, 2016 arent cigarettes like cheap as f--- to begin with though? like $5 a packet? like I'm pretty sure its illegal to do it as well, it just seems like why make like a few dollars profit for breaking the law when you could sell drugs?
Dec 21, 2016 They buy multiple cartons and flip 'em for a couple hundred. Nowhere near as profitable as drugs but a cop won't arrest you for having a trunk full of squares so it kinda evens out.
Dec 21, 2016 i guess so, it just doesn't seem that profitable to me. especially considering a pack of smokes in Aus is $25 literally. like in Aus flipping ciggies only works if you buy them from overseas It just sounds like a huge f--- around when i think about people who say ciggies are like $2-$5 in america
Dec 21, 2016 flipping cigarette cartons in diff states only makes sense if you're traveling there already, and even then it's not really worth it
Dec 21, 2016 Well the thing is the prices vary from place to place, so like cigs are usually 7-11 bucks a pack around here but in Illinois they're double so if you buy, say, $400 dollars worth, you can go cross country and make nearly a stack off of that alone. And there's literally zero risk, getting ticketed for selling cigs is like getting a parking ticket, and its not like if a cop sees people do a "cigarette deal" he's gonna assume its a part of some racket because it's such a minor occurrence.
Dec 21, 2016 I agree that its only worthwhile if you have ulterior reasons to travel, but if you could make an extra couple hundred why wouldn't you? What it makes it "not worth it", not like you gotta worry bout cigarette fiends jacking you for nxt's
Dec 21, 2016 because i'm an adult who travels to see people and do things and not worry about flipping cartons of newports to make 200 bucks
