Extremely defaced or damaged bills are always a fun novelty to see when working as a cashier.

Second place goes to the 60% of a dollar bill someone gave me, prompting me to ask my boss if we could even accept such a thing as payment.

In full fairness, not like "it's fair to impose inequality" but like fairness in a "this isn't much of a practical issue", living in Utah right now, during winter months; no one with a degree of intelligence goes outside topless (or bottomless or full nude.) I can understand when it gets hot, you may want to shed everything, but depending on where you're at, you may want to think otherwise. But even then, sunburns, insect bites, and the constant bad quality air in a lot of the metropolis areas make going topless just a very impractical thing to do. Not saying the option to do so MUST be restricted, it's just something that I'd find weird here since there's fewer benefits to doing it than not. But that's just me being here. I can't speak for the other states that allow it.

A notable additional piece of information, when it comes to increased pay in the US Army (which leads me to believe would be true for other US branches as well), the soldier who receives the additional pay is not required to give or allow access to those funds by their partner. And many people decide that they don't care about that "contract marriage" spouse who lives in the soldiers free house (which is on the base they were deployed from) and may not have a penny. Which may be factorial when they decide to stray to single soldiers on that base. And round and round and round we go... Upon asking, a US Army CID officer (think police detective) once told me that 70% of their cases were domestic violence.

[@SCarboni]

The additional pay is only for the housing and in your statment you said that they live in the house. AR608-99 Under Army Regulation 608-99, a Soldier is required to provide financial support to family members and to obey court orders on child custody. This obligation exists even if the family is separated geographically because of military service. The dollar amount of this support is measured by what is stated in any court orders or written support agreements. In the absence of a court order or written support agreement containing a financial support provision, a Soldier will provide interim minimum financial support which is based upon an amount equal to the Soldier’s Basic Allowance for Housing/Reserve Component Transit (BAH RC/T) rates (formerly BAH-II) at the with-dependents rate for the Soldier’s rank.

Different country, but same law for the alcohol one. In Canada, I’m not sure what it is for different provinces, but at least in Ontario, a minor can drink alcohol on private property if it’s allowed by their parent or guardian. You can’t buy or posses it, but you can drink it. I’m not sure when that came into affect though, cause I remember going into the LCBO with my dad and being told not touch any alcohol because the workers can’t legally sell it then, and I remember seeing signs there saying that. But I’ve been in a couple over the last couple of months, but I didn’t see any, though they were in the Hastings County, and if you don’t know where that is, exactly. At least to my knowledge, around where I live, there’s no counties, but rather regions, like Niagara, Halton, GTA, etc. But my point is that it’s cottage country, and the workers might either don’t care to put it up, or they lost it and never got it replaced, at least in the case that they still do have it. Funny thing is, when I was having a conversation with my mom recently, I brought that up, and she didn’t believe me. At that point, I had no reason to lie, but she just kept saying I was just lying. I even told my dad, and he didn’t believe me until I showed him the proof on our poorly made website for the most populous province.

That Boston law about doctors giving alcohol to patients actually makes sense, since ethanol can and is used as a treatment for methanol poisoning. They both are chemically classified as alcohols.

[@seonor]

Also if a patient is alcoholic you really don't want them to experience all the health issues of going cold turkey on top of the issue they are in the hospital for. If a doctor orders it you get some sort of alcoholic drink in all hospitals (usually its the cheapest swill they can get, so if you are not alcoholic don't try to get alcohol that way).

[@ptorq]

Specifically, methanol itself isn't so much of a problem. The problem is that the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme turns it into methanal, more commonly known as formaldehyde, which is just all kinds of bad for you. If you're also juiced up on ethanol, the ethanol competes with the methanol for the enzyme, producing ethanal or acetaldehyde, which, while bad, is not nearly as bad as formaldehyde. This allows time for a) your kidneys to eliminate the methanol before it turns into formadehyde, b) your kidneys to eliminate the formaldehyde that IS produced, and c) other enzymes to go ahead and turn the formaldehyde into formic acid (which, again, bad, but not as quite as bad as formaldehyde). It all boils down to keeping the formaldehyde at a level that your body can tolerate.

[@girlwithamic8021]

From experience, letting parents give their kids alcohol actually does a lot for their self-control later.

when he was naming off the list of states that allow for the underage drinking under the parents roof. I was legitimately shocked when out of ALLLLL those names, Florida wasn't one of them. Adults/Teens alike act crazy here and that would've explained a lot.

Wait minute. He was listing all the states that have a sensible law and you were surprised that he _didn't_ include Florida?

[@Cheezel321]

@@beeble2003 I'm saying I was surprised to see Florida wasn't on the list where it is legal for a parent or grandparent to allow their underage peoples to drink alcohol using their better judgment. "I don't live in a city with a meth problem" is what i would like to say lol but definitely not where i live. all these kids are mixing molly/Adderall with alcohol

[@arturoaguilar6002]

Isn’t it due to the lack of alcohol in their system? Or maybe more teens drink alcohol in Florida than in other States because it is more alluring when it’s forbidden?

[@DoofusZero]

YET... He forgot Wisconsin. Where parents can buy booze for their kids IN THE BAR...
