One does wonder if she EVER actually managed to figure it out.
-- Or if she just traded it in for a new one (because obviously there's something "wrong" with this one).

Not only that but I'm betting what brain resources they have left is used in the social section of their brains.
Explains why so many women act on emotion instead of logic. And why so many are poor at math and anything technological.

https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/2etvox/ebt_for_fast_food_wtf/
-- My understanding is that it all started with the whole "take & bake" pizza places (one of the main reasons those became so popular/profitable was because -- initially/at the time -- they were one of the few "fast food" type chain/franchise food/restaurant places that could accept food stamps/EBT).
-- See they argued that "take & bake" pizzas qualified as an exception because -- TADA! -- it wasn't "already COOKED/HOT" food... the consumer had to "cook" the food at home (which was one of the "statutory" definitions of food that was "eligible" t be purchased with food stamps).
-- Once that became "obvious/common" then assorted other no-cook semi-fast-food places -- sub sandwiche shops, etc -- were basically able to argue that their products (or at least MOST of their menu) also fit into that "exception." (Sure the BREAD that was part of the sub-sandwich was "cooked" {baked} -- but already "baked" breads {in whatever shape/form} have always been deemed as "eligible/acceptable" for EBT, as have all the rest of the ingredients in sub sandwiches.)
-- Then came the ELECTRONIC payment processing aspect -- where each transaction gets instantly and individually processed like a debit card (rather than food stamps which often had a somewhat unwieldy mechanism for being turned into "dollar" deposits)... and you've pretty much opened the door for any/all fast food to be able to EFFICIENTLY accept EBT (and of course to bill anything to them -- who cares what the statutes say).
-- Add in that various OTHER "arguments" were made (and keep in mind that in the aggregate, there's BIG MONEY here: BILLIONS of dollars per year) -- arguments like that it was "opprssive" to require/force "poor" people to COOK food (when they supposedly may not have the means to do so) -- or alternately that it was "unfair" that they only be able to eat COLD food... and well, you've essentially opened the door to just about everything. CF: http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/business/2011/09/fast-food-chains-getting-into-the-food-stamp-act/
-- AFAIK, about the only places people CAN'T use EBT cards is a traditional "sit down/full service" restaurant (the kind that has a waiter come and take the order, serve the food)... but who knows, even that may no longer be excluded.

We just had two separate motorcycle fatalities on the same road on the same day within two blocks.
In both cases, the now deceased idiots turned without looking and were taken out by trucks.
And in both cases, they've run newspaper stories where the morons' family said the men died "doing what they love."
Apparently they both loved driving like crap.
Look before you turn, please. I don't like dents.

You should always be in control of your bike, not dependent on others to save your ass.
He's just lucky that the woman behind him had the good reflexes to not roll over him and the oncoming truck driver was also on top of their game.
Idiot.
