When I was a kid back in the day, not going swimming until 30 minutes after you ate was a thing. I have no idea why, but since mom said it, then so it was decreed.

The myth that you don't bring anything of value to the OT. With all due respect OweO, maybe this should've been a thread about myths where the opposite is true.

Because that's what you are. You're the opposite of how so many have characterized you. You're an OT philosopher and socio-cultural observer of enourmous value who is routinely castigated and belittled for no apparent reason.

This bears repeating OweO.

We mock what we don't understand".

I just overheard two people talking about the weather forecast for the coming month, and did or did not the groundhog see his shadow.

Kind of in the same vain, there is a segment of the society in New Orleans that believes you should not sleep for a couple of hours after eating Red Beans. They believe it will choke you in your sleep. Every dishwasher we hired believed this; their mom's had told them.

First Aid course for college credit about 2005 and there were freshmen arguing for putting butter on burns. SMH

"Granma always said..."

1st off stupid freshmen, never openly argue with an instructor during the class, it will not reflect positively on your grade.

2nd, leave your uneducated relatives ideas out of the discussions unless you're telling a joke.

we've never had a beer together, we've never shared a meal together, we've never gone anywhere or run into each other anywhere, how can we be friends? I've never even met you.

You are a fool if you think anybody is exempt from my taking joking shots at them.

You want to meet at Riverside for lunch today?

That black dudes have them 9 inch dongs. Anybody who has played sports at a public school or been to boot camp knows that ain’t true. They’re just as inadequate as the rest of us.

You can legally avoid paying federal income taxes by simplying refusing to fill out your W-4.

Had a former family member making North of $180K/year brag about how he read this book that detailed the tax avoidance scheme.

You essentially treat the W-4 as a contract. Using legal jargon to state you are being forced to sign the W-4 and do not agree to pay taxes. You are signing against your will because you won't be employed otherwise.



No offense to your family member, but he must be a fricking idiot..

Not a myth. Tried and true. Works every time just like Sex Panther by Odeon.

For me it was an hour. Never understood it. I used to ask my mom "so what happens if I go in the water right after you eat" and she would tell me some bullshite like "you will get a stomach ache".

This crowd that I know, hoping against all hope, and going against all statistical probability, keep believing that one day you'll have a good thread.


Mind your frickin' sass mouth with that shite fella.

OweO's got more intellectual acumen in his whacking hand than you've got in your entire proto-human, troglodyte existence.

Now show some goddamn respect and hit the upvote button.
