Evil, yes But influential and occasionally a foil to drumph.
Now to you get a drumph croney?


At what point during his presidency was McConnell a foil to Donny?!!?

He only became one once Donny lost and tanked the Georgia senate runoff.

Wendy's had the STUPID idea to introduce surge pricing for FAST FOOD. They got ragged and dragged so hard, they regretted their choice the very next day and backpedaled. Even Burger King roasted them saying stuff like,"No surge pricing here, get a free Whopper with $3 purchase!" 🤣
Alec Baldwin's gun should have been CGI. Would have prevented the tragedy. Facts.

Great, now they will just raise the prices all the time.

FAIL. You rarely ever (if ever) have to have a hamburger. But a ride somewhere, that's a different matter.

Bell telephone was doing surge pricing long ago. But there weren't a lot of options to talk to someone over several hundred feet away, or farther.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Wendy's after getting ragged and dragged for that AWFUL surge pricing idea, implied that they would be giving DISCOUNTS instead. 😉🤭🤣 Customers call the shots with their wallets and when Customers refused to go with Wendy's surge pricing idea, Wendy's backpedaled fast and even are giving DISCOUNTS instead. Wendy's got greedy, plain and simple. Inflation wasn't giving them enough money, so they decided to try to get even MORE money with the awful surge pricing idea and got ragged and dragged instead and regretted it and backpedaled hard and are giving DISCOUNTS now! 🤣🤭

Karen,
Is "Ragged and Dragged" a Floridian expression or just a Karen expression? I've only ever read it in your posts and here you fit it in twice.

Amusingly, I googled it and immediately found YOU using the expression on a Michael Jackson forum and mygnrforum, neither of which I'd ever even heard of.

You and your socks dominate google searches for that expression! That's quite an achievement.

I agree, they will give discounts. Raise the prices of all items and discount them during slower times. Pretty much exactly what surge pricing is.
