When things were made to last, it was a scam.
Now though, for a stove, refrigerator, washer and dryer, you know, major appliances, it's probably cheaper to buy the extended warranty in the lo g run.
Someone should do a study on the life of appliances to see how in line they are with lasting past their warranty.

All this to exit playoffs in first round

This starting to feel a lot like 2016. Let's see what happens at the end of July.

But iif RGlll would say that Ryan Clark would t say shite like that if he hadn't just fallen off the wagon again, he'd br wrong.

RC Is a raging alcoholic. The kind who goes to meetings with anonymous in the name.

When I was 25, I worked for an industry leader in my trade, and I was being groomed for management.
I had been chosen as the corporate liason to bring issues in the shop before management (it paid and extra 2 dollars an hour) and I got a plasma TV and cable put in the break room, got our lunch breaks changed so they automatically deducted 30 minutes from our time so we didn't have to bother with clocking in and out (and surprisingly people didn't abuse the privilege) shite like that.

All I had to do was keep things on an even keel, and I would have been off my tools within the next 3 years.

The GM and I became pretty good friends, BBQ'ing at each other's houses on the weekends, that kind of shite.

Well, I let the boundaries get blurred, and one day I threw it all away.

I have stomach issues from an injury, and 1 day I had an embarrassing issue, I trusted a fart when I shouldnt have, and I didn't want anyone to find out.

So I quickly poked my head in his office and said I had a small emergency and that I needed to go home for a little while, and didn't wait for his response and made a bee line for the exit.

Well, he wanted an explanation, which was well within his rights and expectations. He followed me and caught up quickly because I was duck walking with shite running down my leg.

He stopped me and asked me what was going on,, and instead of telling him, I flashed out and yelled at him to quit stalking me and to leave me the frick alone.

He doesn't know I have shite running down my leg. He just knows Ii was acting super weird, and now I'm cussing at him and embarrassing him in front of other employees.

He tells me to get into his office and explain myself, but my pride wouldn't allow it, and I told him to go frick himself.

He told me that if I left I would be considered walking out and that I would be fired, and I told him frick you, I quit.

All because 25 year old me and my dumbass pride couldn't tell him that iI shite myself.

If I would have, at many different opportunities just gave him even the vaguest explanation, I'd still be there, and would probably be a part of corporate making 2 or 300k a year, but instead I'm still making parts, making someone else rich, and will probably never have that kind of opportunity again.

So yeah, i choked my arse off and it's maybe my biggest professional regret. Not maybe. It absolutely is.

I ended up seeing him years later at a Central High School football game. We got to talking and I ended up telling him what really happened.

He went on to become an executive vice president and still works for that company to this day.

It was funny at that point, but he went on to tell me all the plans management had for me, and how a wet fart snuffed out the lkind of life I would kill for now.

He confirmed that I was less than a year out from a life changing promotion and opportunity.

It didn't make me feel better.

Machinist at a place where they rebuilt industrial electrical motors.
No ac, nothing to move the air thru the shop, antique equipment that had been crashed every conceivable way, parts had .0005 of an inch tolerance that their machines couldn't hold, so you had to get em as close as you were comfortable with then polish them to size, shiit pay, incompetent management, just everything was shite.

It did make me a lot better at my job, but I don't even put that job on my resume. I don't want a prospective employer to know I would put up with the kind of bullshite.

Why do LSU fans hate their incumbent starting QB ? Why is the incumbent starting QB's backup LSU fan's favorite player ?

It's mystifying to me.

This what I find most aggravating about rantards that come over to the recruiting board.
Do they come over here just to shite on a commitment and remind everyone that players are predominantly going to go where they get paid the most ?
They continually repeat the same shite constantly and act like they are making some big revelation that others on this board haven't even considered.
Here's a cheat sheet for those of you who do this. Most people who post on the recruiting board come here to discuss topics related to LSU and its recruitment of high school players and recently transfers.
Of course we are going to talk about kids committing and even more so about highly ranked kids committing.
Another cheat sheet is this, kids have been going to the highest bidder since the helmets were made out of leather.
If you don't like what recruiting has become, what the frick are you doing posting on the recruiting board. Go back to the Rant where you will be far less disconcerted.
Group think isn't nearly as popular over here as it on the Rant, sorry to have to be the one to break it to you

I keep hearing about how LSU has the best fanbase in college baseball.
Yall seem pretty shitty to me though. It is amazing how the tenor of an entire fanbase can turn so dramatically from 1 game to the next.
Someone should do a doctoral thesis on the phenomenon.
The most ironic factor in all of is that baseball is the one sport where a single game doesn't really mean shite.

We're going to win a close one, and it's going to propel this LSU Tigers team to a 1 loss season and championship finals appearance.

See, I cam do it too.

This case doesn't move the needle for me. Allison Rice is the big case that needs a resolution.

The only way that case gets solved is if someone speaks on it. Right now it's a stone cold whodunit.
