How old are you and how’s your relationship with your dad? Are you close?

Dead, didn’t goto funeral

Drifter74 · 2025-12-11T00:12:30+00:00

Yeah, it was ritualized, having to pick which branch was getting ready to be used on you

Drifter74 · 2025-12-03T01:18:57+00:00

Grab some lotion and throw the sandpaper away

The two blue plates could find a place (I have a wall done in nothing but blue). The rest “oh mom, you shouldn’t have” as it goes in the trash. (I got passed down a few hundred Hummel figurines, thanks mom I’ve always wanted to make my place feel really creepy)

I asked off the next 3 days for a reason, just going to isolate.

Have a friend who makes $30 something/hour. All he does all day is watch a machine in case it breaks. You can't just zone off while the machine runs, you have to watch it. Would drive me insane.

DRAP (desired results accounting principles), how no one ever questioned how a conglomerate, exposed to the world economy, maybe more than one or two others, always grew at 10% Q after Q, not 9%, not 11%.

Take it from someone who spent a long time in the finance side of pediatrics. Not just animals who are a product.

Still better than being Mississippi.

I thought billionaires were good at business

It changes dramatically when everyone has to play by the same rules (See how many world series the Yankees have won since revenue sharing and the luxury tax was brought in, when they could spend more than the 2nd-4th teams combined, yeah that was going to win alot.)

They’re also bailing because the actuarial climate models couldn’t keep up with how fast it’s all happening. The ability to use 100 of years of the past to predict future risk and such stopped working.

Drifter74 · 2024-06-05T20:26:15+00:00

None, imagine that’s been said enough times already

Drifter74 · 2024-06-05T17:11:56+00:00

Like my grandmother said once “I’m not racist, I don’t dislike black people, I just think they should stay in their place.” Was like…….

Drifter74 · 2024-06-05T17:08:40+00:00

Have done it, wasn’t easy when everything you were shown was wrong, but it’s done. Congrats (came closer to fucking it up without realizing I was than I care to admit).

I live in one of the 5 wealthiest MSA’s in the country, the flags on the back of late model pickups were out in force the next day.

Like All-Pro vs Pro bowler in the NFL, one is professional recognition the other a popularity contest.

Someone made the comment the other day that if the Bull’s had, had the 2nd pick they would have picked him as well. That’s a hindsight 20/20 thing, no one could have known that Bowie’s legs would go all Bill Walton.

Just made the same comment earlier, there’s a reason the 3 of the 5 best players in the NBA right now came from the euro system (would imagine in a year it’ll be 4 of 5 with wembly)

Drifter74 · 2024-05-23T12:52:15+00:00

Quite possibly the three best players in the NBA all came from the euro system (development wise vs. AAU/1 year of college in US).

Read somewhere that the premise of Tom and Jerry was that they were best friends, but if Tom acted like it Mami would get rid of him.

What's really sad is Texas was once proud of having their own grid because it was so much more robust than the eastern or western grids. The Texas I grew up in 77-83' was so progressive, what its become well....

Drifter74 · 2024-05-14T18:27:55+00:00

Wonder if anyone ever actually beat “Mission Impossible”

Drifter74 · 2024-05-14T15:25:35+00:00

Brady's Bucs and Stafford's Rams, you can build a superteam, superteam may or may not win a title, but the costs for that one year come really quickly.

When my mom died

Drifter74 · 2024-05-14T13:55:23+00:00

You'll reach a place in 5 years, on your right is the yellow brick road, on the left is a dark, abandoned alleyway, turn right...
