I think it's just that electricity is very cheap in the USA compared to other 1st world countries.

edit: That's 900$ per year, right? Not per month, right?

That is apparently from the 20th of may -_- It's also bullshit and I will find a way to not pay that amount since I ended up being railroaded into using this electrcity provider when my ex put it in my name without my permission

300AUD per month? Easy. #1 there is winter. #2 she have baby. #3 using heater(heat pump). #4 water heated up in hot water cylider(permanently connected to the mains, keeping 60C 24/7). Once summer come back, power bill will dropped few times. It's just a life.
I don't buy, sell or trade at moment.
But my question is how hackers at that time were able to hack those games?(c)krzy

I've never had a bill over $400 ever! before the husband left he changed electricity providers then dumped it in my name and I'm now stuck on a contract I neither signed up for nor wanted! I've limited my use of everything I have a feeling there is a huge error on the bill because none of it makes sense and it looks like i've been charged twice!

Also having to move furniture on my own is pretty fucking annoying but now I can be warm in my bed away from the ikky windows and not fear the dustbunnies under the bed anymore!

I just racked up a $200 (US) electric bill. It's my first summer in my new house, and summers here are pretty toasty so I've had the AC working pretty much 24/7. I'm sure next month's will be just as bad. I might have to figure out some alternatives for next year. I also had $200 heating bills in the winter (which are also pretty harsh here). I'm probably going to be upgrading my insulation next year if I can afford it.

$750 for a dinner? You could just go to Dollar Tree, get a microwavable burger and spend the other $749 on arcade machines. :D

For $750 I'd want 3 months worth of lager. ;)

Getting up at 8:30AM when I go to bed at 3AM. I don't understand why but I'm tired as a result. Going to bed earlier doesn't help much. ???

I have the same problem, my brain is way more active at night (i.e. right now) than it is is the morning.

Are you having trouble falling asleep earlier, or is it just no matter how much sleep you get, you're always tired?

Taking naps during the middle of the day might help.

something else that annoys me: paying extra for tracking number at the post office only to have it never updated into the system

I have the same problem sometimes and taking naps doesn't do much for me.  I tend to oversleep if I don't set an alarm or I'll wake up more tired than I was when I laid down.
