Outdoor - 4 hours
Indoor - over the course of the weekend after Thanksgiving
Idk why, but reading “wet” as a descriptor for Mac and cheese is giving me anxiety
Working in the field. Being around massive top out cranes, D8s pushing earth, 30-truck foundation pours across hundreds, thousands of acres. Climbing 400ft and just ripping cigs with the boys while we were winded out.

Best job I ever had

Quick workout in the garage. Have two birds that have been dry brining since late Tuesday so getting ready to pump those full of Cajun butter and smoke.

Gobble gobble, y’all
My 5 year old when she’s hungry or tired or worse…hungry and tired
News this morning said just brother and stepbrother. Grandparents and parents in another two cabins
Wife and I have our own checking and savings, but we have a joint for mortgage/bills/etc that we both have a set amount each paycheck we contribute to. We’re also both very open about our savings, 401k, things like that.

Christmas was hard for me for a while. My mom died 2 days before Christmas my freshman year of college. I hated it for a while. But now, I have a family of my own, it’s reignited a love that I used to have of the season seeing their excitement and wonder. It’s gone from a mourning season to one of enjoying the memories

I was spanked as a child; my dad was never out of control like that. Not even close


Exactly. If anything, my dad was calm and said why I was getting one. It was a “you fricked up, here’s the consequence” thing, not venting his own personal anger. I only got spanked when I absolutely deserved it.

And instead of focusing on how ridiculous that is and how we got there, you shoot directly to the lowest common denominator like a fricking retard

Clearly I'm not a fricking retard, because it seems like I'm more fiscally responsible than most people whining in this thread.

You want to go to an Astros game for cheaper? Move to Houston. You can find seats in the 300s for $30-$40. It's business. As long as people are willing to pay $XX for a product or service, the product or service will cost $XX. But you're CHOOSING to do that.

I'm not saying spending power of the USD isn't in shambles - it is. But these people making this much money should absolutely not be living paycheck to paycheck where they feel they're "one unexpected bill away from financial chaos"
I have almost 5 months of entire household expenses saved collecting 4%. I’m 35 and a homeowner in Denver. I make good money but we’re still conscious about our spending. It’s not hard to save. Just don’t buy everything you see. Consumerism in the US is out of control
Yeah, my father in law had that issue. Until one Christmas she tried to pit him against my wife, his only daughter. shite ended that night :lol:

To be fair, they also move to a place like Miami and would complain it’s too hot. I think it’s their culture to complain.

God pulls them out of Egypt after they begged for it and they still complained

I’ve never encountered a group of people who have everything and act like they’re so maligned all the time

Did those baseball camps behind Jefferson Baptist as a kid in the 90s. I think my parents still have all my red home run ribbons :lol:
lol you do realize a bleed out spot is essentially a “where’s your last stand, mortally wounded after a massive battle but still have enough energy to grab one last smoke out of your pack” kind of spot, not offing yourself.

Sounds like you’re the snowflake if you don’t understand that :lol:
ISIS. No one loses their job for insulting Mexicans in public these days.
