Yeah let's just take a small snippet of a very vocal side of that life in the biggest Greek systems and apply it to all schools.

How many $3.5m houses are there in Baton Rouge? What’s the property tax in something like that?

I wouldn’t buy that house simply because of the microwave location.
I think the in the wall micro is inthe guest house/pool house?
Is the property worth that much? In many other neighborhoods on the north shore or even old metairie that's a 2-2.3 house at the most.

He still lives in University Club. If he is broke he must have gambled a lot of it away, but I know before this past season started he put it out there he was interested in coaching again.. And hasn't taken any job since.

my dad used Skarda from the 80's up until he passed in 2021. I think my mom still uses him for her small personal stuff. Never heard a complaint.

Like I said to each their own and it’s your money not mine. I would def pay for college and finance anything they need for academics. Anything non academic they can get a job and pay for it themselves. I would pay insurance, medical dental and car.
Would? This implies you have not yet put a child through college. I can assure you what you say you would do and what you will actually do when that time comes may be 2 totally different things.
"ill never pay for a car for my kids, they'll have to earn it" If I had a dollar for every time I heard that when my friends had small kids. Different story when they turned 16.

When did this happen? There’s a few Asian monks in the Quarter trying to hand bracelets to tourists and then aggressively asking for money. Gotta dodge them, gutter punks and the “I know where you got your shoes from” folks.
I usually just keep my AirPods in at all times when walking down there. They mostly keep people from talking to me. If they try I just point at the AirPods and keep on walking. Works well

It is not as bad as the weight would suggest, in fact you don't notice it on the street. We drove a G90 since my wife is interested in replacing her F90 Comp, the G90 really is excellent on the street, as good or better than the F90. My wife is holding off on the decision to see if they make a G90 M5 Comp which they have suggested they won't build. If not, she may go a different path with a GT3 Touring being the next one in line. and it would be nice to have a N/A manual car back in the garage.
Outkast has really fallen off.

There's not a spot on the Dragon where you would be going that fast. Luckily, the Dragon can hurt you at any speed.
no, but in an 800+hp car you could get to 90+ in the straight-ish stretches. I just meant more that the crest a Mecca for car spotting like the dragon. on the weekends people are all over. Ive been up there about a dozen times and I mostly avoid the Dragon on the weekends when I do go.

Why were those guys standing there waiting for him to come out of the tunnel?
Angeles Crest is where all the supercars in L.A. go if they want to drive curvy roads. Big car spotting area on the weekends, like the Tail of the Dragon for Los Angeles. Search "Angeles crest tunnels" on Google maps and you can see exactly where this happened. There is a pull off area right outside the tunnel where people watch and listen to the cars coming out of the tunnel.

Any school with > 95% Caucasian would be de facto racist in the real world.
At least one school has held that demographic on the Northshore and is proud to be MAGA.

Tchefuncte Country Club has lots going for $600k and from all accounts there is no traffic in that subdivision.
