Why not? Are you trying to wait for later to get a larger amount? I plan to collect the day I become eligible even at the reduced amount. I figure I will be lucky if there is anything left to collect when I become eligible. Certainly not waiting around and really risking it.

Downvoted. Bootlicker.


I come here for the judgement of the OT.
All I know is that the biggest Christian talkers / church goers / outright religious people I have ever known CONSISTENTLY turned out to be scum bags. I don’t need bible quotes on my body or my bumper stickers. I don’t need my email Sig to preach to others. My faith is between me and God. I don’t much care what anyone else has to say about it.

The loud talkers always seem, to me, to be trying to convince others and themselves
Just going to add a couple of observations for the OT masses. DOES NOT mean I am defending the officers or what they did. So back the frick off the downvote and Boot Licker auto responses.

Look up Open Fields Doctrine. The police can enter property away from the homes curtilage (immediate surroundings) without violating the 4th amendment. So you can stop all the “Trespassing!!!” talk.

As for all the “sue them” comments. In most states, not sure about GA though, liability for killing an animal is restricted to the replacement value of the animal. There’s no Pain and Suffering, loss of enjoyment or anything else. Sorry.
In order to solve this, we need to enact some gun laws restricting the rights of hard working suburban dads.
I am likewise intrigued by the business model.

When seeing those trucks driving around, I always envisioned them pulling up to plants at lunch break and baws perusing the goods and spending their Turnaround checks on shiny chrome tools they may or may not need.

Would love to hear from someone who actually knows how it works.
InB4 “LSU isn’t included because this list doesn’t include Professionals.”

Hell, they even let professionals play on our football team now. So that line doesn’t work anymore.

Jonny Kim. Massive underachiever.

Oklahoma cowboy cooking (dry rubs, real heat, meat that actually tastes like meat) runs circles around that Louisiana sauce obsession. Everything down there gets drowned in brown gravy or some thick roux mess like y’all are trying to hide the fact the meat ain’t that good.


I was going to let things go until this bullshite quoted above. First of all you live in CA. So shut the frick up right there. Then you have the utter audacity to compare OK food to LA food? Are you kidding me?

I had grandparents from KS and OK. They can't cook shite and that's me talking about my grandmas cooking. Cheese hominy is considered elite cuisine up that way. They have no damn idea what salt and pepper is for and have never heard of hot sauce.

Finally, your complete and utter lack of knowledge around Creole and Cajun cooking shows with this "hide the fact the meat ain't that good" comment. LA cuisine is 100% based around cooking cheap cuts of meat because that is what the poor folk here had to work with. Numbskull. :angry:

FWIW, the cast iron cleaning technique is spot on. You should have stopped there.
The injustice of the OT is that comments like this:

fricking Krakers


Get missed in the middle of an active thread. We really need a Golden Ticket style UpVote that pushes literary genius like this to the top of the thread. So well done.

CHICKEN AND MODS do not let this injustice stand!!!

That is 100% it.


I am blown away. I legit thought I somehow missed something.
Not a joke.

A SOCOM FOB (forward operating base) was identified by AQ in Afghanistan via one of these fitness apps. The operators were issued some GPS watch that tracked their runs and the app ended up showing a ton of running routes in the middle of the desert. It was the fenceline of their base that these guys were running round all day long.

It happened again in Syria. Fitness trackers are very much NOT allowed now.
Serious question.

If the commercial had the female pushing the male or a male pushing a male would any of this have happened?

I ask because I am having trouble figuring out what people are so upset about. Is it solely that a guy pushed a woman? That can't be it can it?

Great thread.

I was 100% in the "buy three knock offs instead of one name brand" camp for a couple of years. My knock off Amazons work great and are practically as good as my OEM batteries. I had one that wouldn't fit correctly and gives me issues getting a charge unless I am really careful about putting it in the charger just so. The other eight I have work great.

FAST FORWARD TO LAST MONTH - Across the street neighbor left a knock off battery on the charger under his house after running the weedeater in the yard that morning. Early evening and the battery exploded in his shop and lit the shop on fire in multiple locations. Caught the ceiling on fire and smoke coming in the house through the floor is what alerted them. By the time fire department arrived, the shop was fully involved. They saved the house but the built out shop and garage is a loss. If they hadn't been home, or had been asleep, the house and maybe them would be gone now.

Needless to say, I am now very nervous about my battery stockpile. Haven't decided if I should toss the cheapos and buy name brands or keep rolling the dice.

Clearly making too much sense.

Good write up. You could have just said:

The transcript is enough for me. I don't ever want to hear the audio recording.
I am legit conflicted here.

On the one hand, you have the usual suspects with a plaintiff's attorney who clearly want a paycheck and are using the big R word to get it.

On the other hand, you have an out of control flight attendant and I know that is 100% a thing. I have dealt with them more than once.

I suggest a No Holds Barred Cage Match with each party getting a folding chair. We can hold it in the Sonic parking lot and charge pay per view. Winner of the match gets the PPV funds. That damn lawyer gets zero.
I don't know if disagreement is allowed over here at the MTV board but I never understood the almost universal hate for the first two.

I really enjoyed them.
