Not Safe For Work. A label on reddit to indicate (usually) that a post has nudity, gore, or sometimes bad language. It's meant to warn people not to open it when they are in places such things wouldn't be appropriate.

Prove it first. Watch the asst principal and get evidence that he is doing this. It's probably true, but just taking the students' word for it leaves you open to vulnerability.

Reply to Does the extremely large dentist office off 65 between Ozark and Springfield creep anyone else out? by hannye14

I've been. The Dr. yelled at me for having too high blood pressure. She was seriously pissed she couldn't perform any dental surgery, ethically. Also they made it clear I should get the better quality dental insurance. I felt like I was only a dollar sign to them and they were pissed they couldn't extract more from me.

Reply to Hey, so my cat pushed open some new window screens last night and left my home. I'm probably being overdramatic about it and he'll probably show up while this post is still up so just in case, can y'all keep an eye out for my baby? I don't wanna risk him freezing to death this winter. by MonoChaos

Sounds silly, but thoroughly check the back yard. Often they don't go far. But with no experience they may be scared and hide in bushes.

Why do you hate so much? Why does it bother you?

I don't really care that you don't seem to like BTC.

Yes exactly. I can choose prison. That is not true with dollars. The feds want your dollars they can reach into your bank without your permission. With BTC the feds can't force it, even if they are willing to go as far as killing you.

Ok but then they still get a choice. If, for example, I was told to pay in dollars the gov can reach in my bank and take it. I wouldn't get an option up go to jail and not pay.

That's simply false. If you don't give up your keys they can't be forcibly taken from you.

I mean.. typically it's encrypted on any hardware. If someone has plaintext keys on their hard drive something has gone seriously wrong

But you can't seize BTC unless the criminals freely gave over their keys.
