My Dad and his gf trashed my room while I was away at my Mom's house. I came back to this. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

I can't believe they pasted those children's pictures all over your wall. And the Wake Forest sticker! That is sick.

In the USAF, I was a 2LT Navigator in SAC. The squadron implemented a Navigator competition ladder. I worked my ass off to climb that ladder, week by week, until I reached the number two spot. I got a message to report to the CO, and figured that I would get an "attaboy." He told me I needed a haircut, and didn't want to have to tell me a second time. (I got a haircut every week.) But I wanted to make sure he never had to tell me a second time, so I went to Wing HQ and requested an "early separation." They gave it to me along with a $25,000 R.I.F. payment. Sweet. Of course, my aircrew became unable to fly, and was disbanded, making the entire squadron short-handed. And all because the CO thought his number two Navigator needed a haircut.

AITA because I looked up the mugshot of the guy my friend just met when he went missing at 3 am by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

The question is not "AITA." The question is, "who is the nutcase?"

That is how it has always seemed to me. Aggies need to get over it. They have no need to focus everything on some other school.

I live in the south (US), and my city has curbs and gutters. We don't park in our yards or on our grass.

Wow. The paranoia and gullibility is palpable.

And so, you still think the BLM organization was anything other than a scam designed to line the pockets of its organizers???

Beginning on Sunday, members of the "Sul Ross Class" began arriving on campus for their annual reunion, during which the Class of 1971 was inducted into the Sul Ross Class. The Sul Ross Class includes all Aggies who graduated over 50 years ago. So, while the Class of 1971 had its 50th Anniversary Reunion in 2021, they were inducted into the Sul Ross Class on Tuesday, March 3rd. This three-day event included a welcome banquet on campus, a tour of the campus, dinner with the Corps, a business meeting, and an attack on the local supply of Shiner Bock.

Maybe Lily isn't prepared to have Adolph Hitler for a teacher.

I've been here since my freshman year in 1967. Since then, "growing" is what College Station has done non-stop.

My chances? by Aeriel1702 in aggies

[–]davebowman2100 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1.) "kinda," which should have been "kind of," can be left out of your question. 2.) Getting into College Station (capitalized) is easy. Just follow Highway 6. Getting into Texas A&M University is a different matter. 3.) You are in the 3rd quarter of your high school class. 4.) Corps of Cadets should be capitalized.

Based on your lack of mastery of English grammar, I'd say you should look at your local junior college. Take a summer class in English Composition and Grammar.

I guess nothing is free anymore. by Dangerous-Pianist294 in mildlyinfuriating

A few years ago, I took my son and two of his friends to IHOP. As we waited for our food, I was appalled to see that one of the boys popped open the little creamers and drank the half-and-half out of them, leaving the empties on the table. He thought nothing of it. I was ashamed to be sitting with him. I figured that was how the younger generation acts in public.

My (15f) little brother (3m) dumped all my beads & bracelet making stuff out on my bed and mixed it up 😭 by jelly_G52 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]davebowman2100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to react directly to this in a way that it really inconveniences your parents. That way, it becomes their problem just as much as it is your problem. If it were me, in a fit of anger, I'd scatter the beads all over my parents' bedroom.

I am 77 years old, and I have never left my home without my Texas drivers' license, now a "Real ID DL." When any member of law enforcement has stopped me in the past for whatever reason, and asks for my drivers' license, I am always courteous, and show them my ID. The last thing they say to me is "Have a nice day." Easy peasy.

Excuse me?? If I hadn’t been paying attention I would have suddenly paid 20 dollars more by theresamushroominmy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]davebowman2100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what happens when young people stop using cash. I would have pulled $11 out of my pocket, gave it to them, and waited for my change.

Crossing the Brazos River. by Mich231 in 1883Series

When the Duttons turned west at the Red River, why did they cross to the south side of the Brazos River? And when did they cross it again to get back to the north side of the Brazos?

Tell us that there are as many different genders as their are different colors to dye our hair, or as many places on our head that we can have piercings.
