re: Why do people hate Subaru
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 12/8/25 at 5:18 am to travelgamer
My son is a pilot in the Air Force, based in Spokane (was in Colorado Springs while at the academy). He has a wife, plenty of money, and could drive anything he'd like, but chose a Subaru (the wife has one too). They are great cars. Reliable, fuel efficient, roomy and practical in places you need AWD to drive the roads in bad weather. Y'all keep saying it's just for lesbians and look dumb.

re: How bad is the real estate market in BR?
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 12/6/25 at 12:59 pm to lilsnappa
The price of your home doubled from 2019. You paid too much for it in the bidding war. And it faces a busy street. Time for an adjustment or stay in the house.

re: Do any states still require front license plates?
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 11/27/25 at 8:45 am to NoHoTiger
I never put my front license plate on when I lived in California. But I carried it in the trunk incase I ever was stopped by a cop. (I didn't like the look.) I never was stopped in the 17 years I had the car.
re: U.S. Military no longer supporting Scouts
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 11/25/25 at 3:10 pm to biglego
That must have been Cub Scouts. Boy Scouts start at 11 years old. As everyone has pointed out, you need to get involved in a Pack or Troop and make it better. It's about building a culture that's engaging and fun. And along the way the kids become more self confident, adventurous and better citizens. Parental involvement is prime.

It's a great time to be a blue-collar worker. Electricians, plumbers, mechanics make bank. The problem is people don't like to work hard, study and do the right thing.
re: Married folks — do you and your spouse keep separate checking accounts?

No. My wife had more money then me when we married, and she's 3 1/2 years younger than me. And we've been married 47 years.
re: Serious Question: What was Brian Kelly good at?
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 11/20/25 at 4:14 pm to DeathByTossDive225
Kelly fired Tommy Moffit, and we know what T A&M did to us physically. He fired Blake Baker, and had had to hire him back to have a decent defense. He became arrogant and lazy once he came to LSU. He thought he had made it, and was smarter than everyone else. I would have never predicted it. I was sure he was a Saban-like coach. I was wrong. Nick was never satisfied, he was always thinking about getting better. Did you see photos of Saban hoisting the 2003 National Championship trophy? He couldn't smile, he was already thinking about next year.

re: How much do you pay for a haircut?
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 11/16/25 at 8:03 am to boogiewoogie1978
Wednesday's senior day at Supercuts on Sherwood; $12.95 and a $5 tip. Tonja is funnier than a crap. She always has a funny story to tell during the haircut.

You got that right, Brussel sprouts are the worst vegetable ever boiled. But broiled-roasted, they are the best.

Another case of people being rewarded by the government programs that reinforce bad behavior. Shocker.
re: Seriously…your opinion on why Kelly didn’t work out.
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 10/28/25 at 5:20 am to GA Tiger
Arrogance. He's not near as smart as he thinks he is.
He fired Blake Baker and had to hire him back and make him the highest paid defensive coordinator. He fired Tommy Moffit and we see how that worked out for TA&M.

re: Small town America is truly depressing
Posted by RedlandsTiger on 10/20/25 at 2:23 pm to GreatLakesTiger24
We are talking apples and oranges. The metropolitan area for Ocean Spings includes 5 counties.
The statistical area consists of the Gulfport–Biloxi Metropolitan Statistical Area and the Pascagoula Metropolitan Statistical Area. The 2010 census placed the CSA population at 411,066, and as of 2019, is estimated to be 442,165.[1] The area was significantly impacted by Hurricane Katrina on August 29, 2005, although population growth has steadily rebounded in recent years.[2]
Counties
Hancock
Harrison
George
Jackson
Stone
A 800 person town should not even be considered a town, it's a community (and probably not be incorporated). In my book, a town with a population of 18,000 people is a small town.

Population 18,954 (2024)
That's a small town in my book, what's your definition? if it's 600, then yes small towns suck (but I don't think that's a town).
