That many laughing emojis is the usual cover for being unable to back up your own words, or make a cogent rebuttal.Damn it!!!! Rob wins again. If only I saved my grocery receipts for years so I could win an internet debate. Lesson learned. The Almighty Rob wins again.
And so here you are stating that you have no idea what you actually spent over the years, but I'M the one who is wrong for knowing what I spent, and how prices ACTUALLY changed over time.
Yet we should believe YOUR claims, why? Becasue you say "TDS" over and over again?

Presidential overreach IMHO. If the states are able to decide how abortion should be regulated, why not EVs? Personally, I like the idea of Cali being the guinea pig for EV infrastructure. https://www.businessinsider.com/trumps-evs-california-implications-for-the-entire-auto-industry-2024-12

Post #6798 lists a bunch of items I bought 30 months prior to the date of the post, with prices and weights (to make it apples-to-apples and avoid the "they give you less per package" argument).
Post #6,800 lists a bunch of the same items, with the prices and weights listed as ot he date of the post, 30 months later.
I shortly thereafter mentioned this to Jimi regarding his "prices have doubled" claims:
"Maybe you are the outlier, or maybe I am the outlier. But if outliers exist, they affect the average.
Diet Coke: has gone up $1.10 a case for me in the past 30 months, but it's DOUBLE for you in that time?
Eggs have gone up 8 cents each for me, but they DOUBLE for you?
Pasta is the same for me, but DOUBLED for you?
Ragu went up from 8 to 9 cents for me, but DOUBLED for you?
Pork loin dropped 39 cents an ounce for me, yet DOUBLED for you?
You might indeed live in some type of pricing nexus. It'll be interesting when Spokey posts his shipping cart from 30 months ago with prices then versus prices today, and then says "All of the changes happened prior to 30 months ago, and prices haven't changed since! TDS!!!!!!!!!!!!"
So yes Buck, that is EXACTLY what happened.
Now let me ask you: When you respond to my post like you did above, WHO is the one being a dickhead around here? Do you REALLY think I make claims here that I cannot back up? I've said it pretty much form day one that I can ALWAYS back up what I say.
Someone thought I was lying about that and ran his mouth, playing tough guy. he found out I am not a bullshitter. If I say it, I mean it. And I can back it up.
Go look at the posts, then feel free to comment how they never happened, or maybe even apologize for claiming yet again that I am lying.

What? I said I'm totally sure that's exactly what happened. You're always right Rob, so there's no doubt what you say is exactly correct and in context and is totally relevant to everyone's lives.That's not a very good faith post.

Man that guy never stops. It probably is a good thing I can't respond to him. I like his little reference to me like he won something. "Someone thought I was lying about that and ran his mouth, playing tough guy. he found out I am not a bullshitter. If I say it, I mean it. And I can back it up." What he is, is a dangerous far left extremest who has no problem look people up. Who knows when he will lose his shit when someone proves him so wrong that his brain finally fully snaps. He has your information too guys, he told me.

I know right? It's sad that you have to argue about grocery prices. Because what HE paid is what the whole of the United States pays right?I'm a tough guy for joking about a grocery list

He did post photos of prices of things. You better watch out, tough guy. We're all idiots and there's no way to verify like anything, but you watch out, tough guy, doubting truth from the almighty is unacceptable.

Like I said, he tried to tell me what I paid for gas as a delivery driver in Yulee, Florida when Trump was president the first time. He had no clue and tried to claim I paid the national average. He just wants to argue and tell you that you are wrong no matter what.

Why are you even arguing??? I already acknowledged you're right and that when OldSlapper posted Thanksgiving dinners are cheaper, he was really referring to wholesale turkey prices, which have undeniably increased. Are you insane?You can't make this shyt up!!!!
"frozen turkeys priced slightly higher than last year and fresh turkeys priced slightly lower." per the USDA.
I'll let you guess which type of turkey comprises the vast majority of turkeys that are stocked and sold by retailers for the holiday.
“While the wholesale price for fresh turkey is up from 2024, grocery stores are featuring Thanksgiving deals and attempting to draw consumer demand back to turkey, leading to lower retail prices for a holiday bird, the continued shortage of farmworkers and rapidly increasing farm wages,” the Farm Bureau said in a statement.
"Prices for dinner rolls are down 14.6 percent, while whole milk is up 16.3 percent and frozen pea costs have increased by 17.02 percent."
"Other crops are also facing an uptick in prices: A vegetable tray is up more than 61 percent, and sweet potatoes are up 37 percent, according to data from this month."
So I guess lost profits for retailers, on top of tariffs, is a big win for Trump.
Yay, MAGA!
And, you're not reading very carefully. "yet none of the reservoirs ran dry," was what I said.
That by default eliminates the already-dry reservoir. And already-dry reservoir can't run dry again, unless it's been refilled. The one that was dry would have made no difference to the firefighting, since even the active ones didn't get emptied.
But that's a debate for Slapper to battle, though he'll probably just forget all the claims he made, and move on.
The gov't shutdown was for illegals to get healthcare? That's interesting.
I know you are just repeating a Trumpism, but I've asked you probably a dozen times to prove your claim of illegals on Medicaid. Something you claim to have personally witnessed, yet can't provide even the simplest detail of HOW you knew the person on Medicaid was an "illegal", much less HOW an illegal was approved for Medicaid when the CFR specifically says they are not eligible, as does your state HHS system.
That's awfully disingenuous.
But I suppose it's just my "TDS" or "Rob is always right syndrome" to expect someone to prove dubious claims that they make, huh?

That's the great thing about the Almighty Rob, he has a better grasp of what i paid for groceries than I do. I mentioned that I wished I'd saved my grocery receipts for the last 3-4 years so I could prove Rob was wrong, but we all know even if I had done that, it would only have proven him right. It's just my imagination that I used to get broccoli at .79/lb & now it's 1.79/lb (not to mention that leave more of the inedible stalk on the crowns now too). Milk didn't really go from 1.99 to 3.75/gal. And something something Oldslapper & Trump fooled me into believing Thanksgiving dinner was marginally less expensive for me this year. Thank our AI overlords that Always Right Rob is here to correct that bit of misinformation.
We got our Turkey for free this year, but we actually paid more because wholesale turkey prices are up. How could free be more than what I paid last year gou ask? I don't know, but i'm sure Always Right Rob can enlighten us.
