A quick definition of usurarius:

Term: USURARIUS

Definition: A person who lends money at a very high interest rate is called a usurarius. This is an old term that was used in the past to describe someone who was a usurer. A usurer is someone who charges a lot of money for lending money to others. It is not a good thing to be a usurer because it can cause people to become very poor and unable to pay back their debts.

A more thorough explanation:

USURARIUS

Usurarius is a Latin term used in law to refer to a person who lends money at an exorbitant rate of interest, commonly known as a usurer.

1. John borrowed $1000 from a moneylender and agreed to pay back $1500 in six months. The moneylender charged an interest rate of 50%, making him a usurarius.

2. The practice of charging high-interest rates by moneylenders was common in medieval Europe, and many usurarii made a fortune by exploiting the poor.

The term usurarius refers to a person who lends money at an excessively high rate of interest, often taking advantage of the borrower's desperate situation. The examples illustrate how moneylenders charged exorbitant interest rates, making them usurarii. Such practices were prevalent in medieval Europe, where many people fell into debt traps and were unable to repay their loans, leading to dire consequences.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.

babycat

14:59

babycat

15:00

but I don’t use dating apps so all my first dates are with people I’ve already met in some context, which it sounds like is your situation too

Dkk

15:00

I could never imagine myself doing that on a first date.

Dkk

15:01

@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: hope things get better

babycat

15:01

@Dkk: what if it’s someone you’ve known for a long time but never dated?

Dkk

15:03

Maybe but things would have to go like perfectly. I could not imagine them going perfectly.

renard99

15:04

Sleeping on the first date just isn't my style, idk. I take things painfully slowly and much prefer to befriend and really get to know a girl first before doing any of that

Rightfullytherlauren

15:04

Ok another question, what do u tell the ppl u sleeping with already that ur going on dates

Dkk

15:05

The bigger issue is if I sleep with them will I have the emotional connection to finish cus it is harder for me to finish if I do not know the person.
