Sure, but in that previous time period, they didn't make a profit but were able to destroy the brick and mortar bookstore. So I guess it would be more honest to say they demolished the bookselling industry and now can argue for whatever deals they want because the only other bookstores are weakened.

Arkansas grows primarily rice and soybeans, so I don't understand why it says anything about cows. There are some cow farms, sure, but by and large it is rice and soybeans. And honestly, it's mostly rice. They grow almost half of the country's crop.
Amazon does not make any profit from their books. They are able to sell them cheaply because they sell them at a loss. They weren't even profitable for a long time and maintained thanks to investors. Basically, Bezos sold the idea of the future of his store's worth. And it worked.

Growing up in the South is learning to be mean by way of looking nice.
Like...stale or just...weird? I don't know how to describe it. If it only smells like glass or cleaning such, it's good. Anything else is bad.
Gotta smell the inside of a cup or bowl when taking it out of the pantry. If it smells wrong, I have to wash it first. I don't know why.
Not really. They never wanted a large instance and didn't want to become a Reddit replacement. I see them more like a federated Tildes, honestly.
Wouldn't they deny your money because of the dates? You'd have to ensure you only have cash from pre-2003.
