I will always disagree.

Mine are military tats from back in the day. I do not see them as trashy. If they are, oh well. I don't give a shite.

I think texas people are worse... mcmansions, 100k vehicles, debt up to their eyeballs, all for show... they truly care about what other people think of them, and it's kind of pathetic if you ask me

Here's a classic case of "what annoys you about others is a reflection of thyself."

I live comfortably in a 2500sqft house... I have an 8yr old ford truck and my ol lady drives a corolla (she loves her car)... we have 2 boats (17ft bay and 10ft john), no kids yet, and 1 dog... I can retire at 55 and she can retire at 50, yet we vacation 4 times/year... we don't social media, and we don't keep up with the jonses... cuz a lot of them will be working well past 55... we live modest, so our golden years can be as great as possible

My grandfather was pretty well off, but you'd never guess that from his modest house, coveralls, and beater truck. I guess that's just a consequence of living through the Great Depression. I think the thought of ever being poor again scared him to death, so he pinched every penny.

is it? are you paying for it? didnt think so, so why the frick do you care?

do you have any idea how much money me and my wife make or our financial situation? nope...so again why the frick do you care

again...do you know if my kid is good or not or seen him play...again the answer is no...so how about shutting the frick up and minding you own business


would you say the kids that are at D1 programs wasted their money playing?

and matter of fact, why cant it be...my kid enjoys playing the game and wants to play more and more and i can afford it while it not affecting my life style any...so why not let him do what he loves?


but look here is the deal..you have made it very clear you believe little league is the best path....so since its the best path you should have nothing to worry about when it comes to your kid right? he will pass up the travel kids and you will have saved a bunch of money so no reason to be a short little piss ant about how others spend their money


you are just like the OP always on here concerned about how others spend their money...it literally affects you zero. fricking zero, so stop being a jealous little bitch about everything.

Saying you’re going to drop $100k plus on each kid to ultimately go to college and be a dumbass college kid like a million other kids is an objective fact.

Glad your wife can finance that for you though

You repeat this every time like you even know what i do.

Congrats on your McNeese degree in your 30s and shift work though. Making sure the needle is in the pizza slice is very impressive. Almost as impressive as your 1st grade level grammar.
