Okay is a relative term, but yeah, that passed.  Thanks.

Have you seen The Big Short?

The system is exactly that evil.

 

I've drawn a much more terrifying conclusion from The Big Short: even people who are supposed to know things are just as stupid as anyone else and nobody ever makes any effort to check anything.

If they were simply evil, we could rebel and get good people in that place instead... But they're stupid and there's no one you could replace them with.

I realize the conversation has mostly moved on from cakes with or without milk, but I had an idea. @Delightful, would the cake be acceptable to eat with meat if you used a plant-based dairy substitute like almond or soy milk?

I have a credit card that allows you to see your FICO score for free. 

I also have student loans. 

I pay off both the full balance of my credit card and make a payment on my loans each month. 

And my credit score has been slipping. Not much—just a point or two every few months—but enough that I wondered what the storms was going on. So I did a quick Google search and found this answer. For those of you who don't want to read the article: Basically, paying off your student loans can hurt your credit score because stupid financial mumbo-jumbo that makes no sense to anyone who isn't laughing at the proles from their rooftop pool filled with gold coins. Yeah. You're punished for being responsible and not taking out more credit than you feel you can manage at one time. 

Noodly One, I hate this financial system we have here. :angry: 

Credit is easy (the concept, not actually getting it). The idea is that you want to appeal to creditors. This boils down to making payments on time AND paying plenty of interest. This translates into the creditors seeing that you are fiscally responsible AND that they can make money off of you.

Debt is not necessarily bad, in fact, Hamilton was all for having a national debt. Debt implies an investment on someone's part, which leads to monetary growth and, more importantly for everyone, currency movement.

Yes, I just didn't have any on hand. I'm not sure about almond milk but soy milk does change the taste too.  

The cake was for a party and everyone ate it, so it can't have been too bad :P

I listened to this album like 3 times a day for two weeks when it came out.

I could draw that instead. @Delightful give me inspiration please.

Just mix crypts, Esher, Pyramids, R'lyeh and crypts... and possibly creepy theme parks and haunted houses and stuff. And deep, dark woods.

I might do both :/ wait till tomorrow, patient friends.

If it's as good as "bleeder Sleeping In A Chasm", it'll be museum-worthy, for sure.
