$50 for a regularass haircut at a regularass barbershop is INFUCKINGSANE.

the place I go to has 3 guys and they're independent, but there's a shop rate

it's a first come first served place. They got a new guy in a few months back, but last weekend was the first time I used him (I usually just play luck of the draw because they're generally all good enough).

He had his square terminal set so that the tip choices were 37%, 52% and some number even higher I couldn't comprehend.

My dude, you're just asking for no tip.

$35 vs. $45.

I give him a $10 tip as an unspoken thank you.

Why do you hate me, Sammich?

Speaking of price increases. Ameren had a temporary price increase for electric supply

for June through October, from .08769 per kilowatt hour to .11326. That’s a 29.16% increase.

Now that it’s October, they’ve reduced the rate!

To .10441.

That’s a 19.07% increase in the “lower” rate that they’ve positioned as a reduction.

Can’t wait to see what next summer’s “temporary increase” rate will be!

What we've become is contrary to what we want
Take a bow

I started going to hair cuttery instead of great clips since my hair requires a bit more

Styling these days.

$38+tip now (this includes a shampooing that I almost never do, but they don't let me take it out of the price)

Vs

$20+tip at great clips (able to skip the shampooing and cost of it)

I think Imma go back to great clips.

$50 is wild. I pay $30-35 at the random ssa spots I go to on the north side of Chicago. (nm)

“Great” doesn’t come cheap. It’s not like the sign says “Meh Clips.”*
