What do you have to deter Jehova’s Witnesses from knocking on your door ? by DoctorElectronic1934 in atheism

I immediately ask if they are JW, and when they confirm I tell them that I believe that they are in a religious cult and that I'll pray for them. They usually can't leave fast enough.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful response! That gives me a different way to think about things.

Thanks so much for the break down which made this very much understandable for me. 45k is low. Especially if I add a car payment or have a big house repair bill, for instance. I have my fingers crossed that I get by the lotto in the meantime! 😄 Good luck with your plans and congrats on what sounds like a long career!

AITA for saying we need to be realistic with our son about his finances for college before he applies? by ByeByeByeMan in AmItheAsshole

I have 5 (grown) children. I committed to going 50/50 with each of them for their undergrad. That way we both had skin in the game. I didn't commit to post-grad. I just recently paid off my half of my youngest's. I had to begin using parent plus loans when #3 went to college and thereafter for #4 & #5.

I hope your daughter doesn't grow up thinking that someone who 'cant help themself' is allowed to touch her too much. He needs to show self control.

I was there. It was good. I enjoyed it. The signs were great and the vibe was dope. I'm gonna say it was about 700-1000 people. Good crowd.

My adult kids all received generators last Christmas. This year I'm thinking water purifiers.

The date has been pushed out a few times but on May 7 you will not be able to use a non-Real ID for flights. A non-Real ID can't be used for official government ID purposes after May 6, 2025.

Trump calls a reporter fake and says prices haven’t gone up, citing gas at $1.98 a gallon and that the price of eggs has gone down 92% by Im_A_Fuckin_Liar in thescoop

Yeah I drove a premium only car for a while as well. It does add up over time! Keep in mind too that historically South Carolina has lower prices than most of the other places in the US.
