The idea of Luigi being super wealthy and owning a lavish mansion is really fun to me! He's always really overlooked in the games so him being rich and no one knowing about it would be hilarious
I like the idea of him not necessarily being like, hella rich, but definitely having means of being more well-off than his humble storefronts and business would suggest. Then again, I can also see him partnering with Mario on some of his brother’s legitimate bodyguard missions which pay very well, so that could actually bring more hint to folks what his finances actually look like.
At any rate! If anyone knew of Luigi’s actual financial standing is, it’d def be Mario and quite possibly Peach. Bowser might have some suspicions but would ultimately not know until later in their dating life, and everyone else would largely be oblivious. owo
Hello friends, I was today years old when I realized that in this da Vinci’s Last Supper-esque promo art for Dragon Age: Inquisition, Solas is standing in Judas’ spot at the table
People are asking whether the pilot of the Ever Given will still have a job after this, but honestly, I’d be surprised if the owner of the Ever Given will still have a job after this. When this is over, Evergreen Marine is going to get sued by every shipping insurance company on the planet. Like, I’m not even exaggerating for effect here: I mean every single one.
IIRC, Boats going through the Suez Canal are legally required to have a designated Suez Canal Pilot take the ship through it. So the Ever Given may well be in the clear because their people weren’t the ones who crashed the boat
That absolutely will not stop potential litigants from claiming that Evergreen was negligent by sending the Ever Given through the Canal in the first place.
(Of course, Evergreen will obviously claim that it was the Canal authority’s responsibility to determine whether it was appropriate to send the Ever Given through, not theirs, and now we’re off to the races!)
I am not, and was not ever, a shipping lawyer. I did, however, work down the hall from a whole team of them, so I picked up a thing or two over after-work beers. You cannot predict, nor hope to predict, just how arcane and byzantine a really good shipping law action is going to get. And this promises not just to be really good, but possibly the best that has ever been seen. And the shipping claims are merely the centre-ring to a multi-ring circus of insurance, reinsurance and otherwise unspecified contract claims. We’re not just off the races, we’re getting a side trip to the zoo, a night at the opera and probably some folk dancing thrown in. The last time I can recall a single non-war event that embuggeranced this many contracts, it was the unexpected postponement of Edward VII’s coronation due to inflammation of the Royal Appendix.
@andrewwolfe i entered an inkstained haze and then awoke 2 hours later with this, enjoy
“ooh you hate cops but who are you gonna call when you get robbed?” uhhhhh your moms house? a great tragedy has befallen me and i need to have sex immediately
Every time someone’s like “who are you gonna call when you get robbed?”
1. Know how I know you’ve never been robbed?
2. I am going to call my insurance company and file a claim, the only usefulness a cop has at this point is generating a report number for said insurance company to refer to
3. Seriously all a cop’s gonna do after establishing that the robber/burglar/whoever isn’t there anymore is say “what do you want me to do about it?” and leave
