        88 is also a Chinese good luck thing. It’s the 1488 that makes this suspicious. 8 is a lucky number in many cultures

        I had never heard of that before, but I’ve seen several crazy 8 style things over the years - I did know that 8 was a lucky number in Chinese numerology.

        So the idea here is that people think some Trumper is subtly telling everyone he likes Nazis, and chose to do that by discounting the stuff he sells in his store? That seems weird, but at least I understand. Thanks

        Honestly I feel like food prices kind of are a hate crime anymore. Cost me 45 dollars yesterday to get a 12" pizza, 6" sub, and 3 drinks yesterday!

        Are we great enough yet? I don’t think I can afford to make America any greater . . .
