We’re just planning on moving now, cause we hate this place and there’s a multitude of problems: A/C can’t keep up with cooling the house, costs a fuck-ton in energy bills, the management company won’t fix shit and they’re a nightmare to work with. They tried to blame us for rats getting into the attic, when it was a known problem before. Took us 2 months to make them hire pest control, and then acted like we should be grateful for normal-upkeep, and not having rats get inside

The neighborhood is actually nice, but the big-name management company are basically slum lords with a smile. But we had 3 dogs at the time and rental options were few, that had a fenced yard and would accept 3 dogs. 2 of them sadly passed this past year, and as much as I miss them and it wrenched my heart… we realized we could probably find something better now and not need such a large yard (our last dog is old too, and doesn’t romp in the yard anymore. He just enjoys little walks now)

The stove is just one of the things I hate about this place and I don’t want to fix any of their shite, even for $10. We’re just making it work for now

Love it. I have this tattoo as well, in big black bold letters. Almost same font size, but more compact on my upper arm. Still love it everyday

The stove in the place I rent. Only been living here maybe 2 years… and that thing is the devil. I thought it was just me getting used to an electric stove again. Nope, that thing is just a piece of shit.

Nothing can simmer, nothing can be left unattended for more than a few minutes (at most), it can’t maintain anything close to a consistent temperature, and forget boiling water before you die of old age… I use an electric kettle just so I can boil noodles in less than 40 minutes

Maybe it’s my pots?.. nope, I’ve tried. Maybe I’ll get better at using it?.. no, and at this point I wouldn’t even want to. It’s just a piece of shit. My mother-in-law is a great cook, and she was pissed when she burned smothered chicken on it… because she hasn’t burned smothered chicken in probably 20+ years; she confirms the stove is garbage

Fuck that stove

Thanks for hearing my rant, I feel a little better now

Edit: I forgot to mention that the fucker is BRAND NEW too. We’re literally the first people to use it. Garbage-ass, giant piece of horse shit…

Wish I was knowledgeable enough to create my own malicious link for scammers. “Sure, I’ll send you what I can to help! Just click this link so my bank can confirm it’s me who’s sending the money”

Ex gon’ give it to ya (WHAT‽)

Fuck waitin’ for you to get it on your own

EX gon’ deliver to ya (Uh)

Knock knock, open up the door, it’s real

With the non-stop, pop pop from stainless steel

At 30, dried my hair too hard with a towel. Pulled my neck

When my wife was getting her masters degree, her professor told her about it too lol. All of her professors pretty much used it. When I myself, tried to tell her about sci-hub and libgen, I was surprised that she was already well acquainted

I actually just clicked the link in your first comment, and realized you were referring to the best Avatar and not the blue people avatar

I simply read “avatar font” and my mind immediately went to the “Papyrus” video… it lives rent-free in my head lol

Well I appreciate the research! Cause I didn’t even know that was a font. I was honestly just sharing a somewhat relevant video, that somehow manages to crack me up; every single time. It’s just so dumb and well produced, that it gets me every time lol

Papyrus!

I’m assuming Epic as in the healthcare charting system

What are you on about? Anything but OP’s question I guess, just going on tangents instead?

The article you linked is about corporate tax avoidance btw, which yes, absolutely effects everyone. Anything else you’d like to add to your ramblings?

Well that’s a left-field response. He’s not just employing friends and family, he’s also employing loyalists who’ve garnered favors from him (because of their loyalty). And it isn’t just a business, it’s a government

I would employ my family if I could, but I sure as hell wouldn’t choose them over qualified professionals, whether it’s a business or a government. I’m sure as shit not gonna have someone with no financial expertise running my accounting, no matter how much I love them.

Don’t make everything political and start stirring shit, we have enough of that right now

I’ve been written off as “absent-minded” (yet everyone seeks my advice for major life shit)

I feel this in my bones. My family has always labeled me as “aloof, absent-minded, head in the clouds”… and somehow always seem to forget that I’m the one that shows up or gets called when shit goes sideways

I’ve tried to accept that it’s just an “endearing” label from them, and they don’t actually believe I’m unreliable… because they still (individually) fall back on me whenever they need someone to come through. I’m an “aloof crisis hotline” I guess

Same; haven’t looked at reddit since I came here (other than the occasional search engine question where a reddit thread has the info)

I have pictures in my phone (somewhere) of the tags for some bedding that I really enjoyed on a vacation once. Haven’t bought them yet, but I haven’t forgotten. ‘Snuggle bug’ is one of my favorite pastimes

Well shucks, my modern technology doesn’t currently have a “copy text from image”. I appreciate it though

I wish someone would type that out into the comments, so I could click the dead link and feel a small sense of satisfaction; simply by knowing it was dead before I even clicked it, confirming my suspicion

But it’s the internet… so 50/50 whether some hero does it for no reason, or someone throws some kinda rick-roll response. Either way, I ain’t typing it out and I can live with the disappointment… sorry y’all, I’ll try and be better next time

Hmm… I mix my sour cream back up. Honestly never really considered it before now

Same. Our agreement is that she can keep glass containers, and I can keep old electronics. We keep each other in check lol
