The middle east? Where gasoline/petrol is almost free? Dude. Buddy. Pal. The arabs have so many fucking cars. It's insane. UAE, SE, etc. so. Many. Cars.

The old chocolate pretzel handshake.

(From Mall Rats, if you missed it)

Tipping point: like that tipping point which led to a military coup? Heh. That didn't go anywhere. What happened to them again?

Luke, I am your father.

There's something wrong inside you.

Your math is weird. Why are you talking about daily rate, when OP is talking about weekly and hourly?

Where did you get your inflation conversion from? I got my numbers from the Bank of England, and it's about $100usd, not $123usd. 25% margin of error is way off.

$2.49usd per hour is the right answer.

1 pound = 20 shillings.

1 GBP in 1843 is worth £104.72 now (https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/inflation/inflation-calculator)

104.72/20*15=78.54

£78.54 = $99.55USD

99.55/40 (hrs per week) = $2.49USD per hour

Or less, given he likely worked more than 40 hours per week.

But I think we can say that $2.50/hr is a very Scrooge-like wage, and that OP has no fucking clue how to do basic math.

EDIT:

However, from https://www.measuringworth.com/calculators/ukcompare/relativevalue.php

1GBP in 1843:

in 1843 there are four choices. In 2021 the relative:

• real price of that commodity is £104.40
• labour value of that commodity is £862.70
• income value of that commodity is £1,409.00
• economic share of that commodity is £4,601.00

Weird Al, sure.

But also Jack Black.

If being stupid and ignorant was your life goal, you've succeeded wildly.

She's after his tiger blood.

Why use a mask: because it's cheaper, and helps secure the people nearby (in case of a room leaking, that's a lot of displaced air, while a mask or similar leaking is significantly less of risk in case of uncontrolled release). But I bet mostly because it's cheaper - and remember, it's never been done before (by them, for this purpose).

Everyone poses a threat to everyone. The question is to what extent. Of course, you have no idea what you're talking about, so there's that.

Fuck you're stupid.

Well, there isn't anything else of substance to attack, so what passes for your character is the most effective way to let you know what a piece of shit you are.

I tried opening windows, but I just got a blue screen, so I don't get it either.

Because you don't understand how the American electoral system presently works.

So, yes, they are. Fuck you people are stupid and ignorant in one.
