There are so many examples of things that do not work and it makes me wonder who is getting paid for these things that fail in a very short period of time.

For anyone who travels the atchafalaya basin bridge, have you ever seen the “Your Speed” signs working? Whose brother in law got a contract to install something that never worked?

In my family it’s caused by my mom trying to be helpful by meddling and telling her children and their spouse what they should or shouldn’t do. My mom is the smartest and has the most wisdom in the room that she happens to be in at any given time. Her helpful tips and comments have a way of making people feel judged and insulted even though she’s just trying to help. Some family members get upset. I just open up the archives and bring up some bad decision my mother made at some point in her life and humble her. The others just avoid her and she cannot understand why.

For Thanksgiving my SIL made a sweet potato casserole which was delicious. Everyone was saying how good it was. My mother asked how much salt did the recipe call for? SIL said 1/4 tsp. Mom said to try 1/2 tsp next time and it will be perfect.

I could give a million examples. Over time these little things beat people down to the point where they want nothing to do with the other person and it starts fracturing the entire family because everyone is almost forced to take a side. It’s hell.

ETA: My father is the one who really suffers the most. He just wants everyone to be happy.

I’ve been saying this is BR Burger Kings last year for no less than 10 years. I have no idea how they stay open.

Notice the garbage in the parking lots at these stores. The Burbank location has probably a 15 yard dumpster’s worth of loose trash at all times.

Cannot wait for Farm Bureau to lower my homeowners insurance premium!

I can’t confirm any of the negative stories I’ve heard about him but I also have never heard anyone say anything positive about him in a personal way.

You motorboating SOB

Did she say “ramshacked”?

They were already planning to show up at the parade grounds on social media. I came across a discussion yesterday. The spirit of their conversation was that unity field was taken from them so they’ll just take over the parade grounds.

Town Donuts on Perkins near YMCA Plaza is really good and the people working there are incredibly nice.

No lowball offers. I know what I got.
