Downvoted because of the nightmare thumbnail.

Some majors are straight-up pyramid schemes. If the only thing you can do with a major is to teach it to others, it’s a pyramid scheme.

It’s less than that. Closer to a few thousand, IIRC.

Settlers can be played pretty competitively–stuff like building a settlement in a “bad” position just to mess up someone working to build next to that spot, stuff like that.

The friction in Monopoly mainly comes down to our table rules, specifically that you can make any deal verbally you want (though there’s no guarantee the other party will follow through).

Monopoly and Settlers. Both very cutthroat at family gatherings.

Monopoly. My oldest two siblings are absolutely cutthroat when playing it.

I guess in this case the /s is for satire.

Ah, that would definitely make a difference. A debit transaction uses some form of “password” like a PIN or the data embedded in a card chip. A credit transaction technically only relies on easily available data and sometimes a signature, much more common for fraud (it’s pretty easy to read and replicate the data from a magnetic strip–one of my classmates did a project to read magnetic strips, and they had to stop letting people swipe their own cards on it because it popped up tons of confidential data).

My CU’s website definitely looks like it’s from the early naughts, but they at least kept things up to date and security practices seemed legit, and I don’t think I ever tripped the fraud detector. I guess everyone’s mileage will vary a bit.

Yeah I’m on board, I was attempting some mild satire.

Yeah, I was being mildly satirical. Insulting any people group seems like it should be a losing move. I wish it were.
