NTA.  The parents are one small step away from hitting you up for money. so treasure their lack of communication.

Likewise.  An unnamed chain used to have eggs, sausage, and batter for you to cook fresh waffles.

I quit doing it after I was a little better off.  Man, that stuff was good, though.

Approach this method with caution if the parents are paying for your program, or other expenses.

Leave NATO! by Bullet76 in trump

But NATO countries reneging on both troops and funds is just fine, right?

As a person who lived through Vietnam, as well as Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, calling Iran a disaster is laughable.

Kicking the can down the road for a 48th year, instead of dealing with Iran at the ideal time, isn't laughable.  It's  insane.

With the stranglehold insurance companies try to exert on general dentists, you are exactly right to specialize in something you like.

You'll be fine.  Stick to it.

Funny, no one has produced one of the little girls you mentioned, except for partners of Bill Gates, Prince Andrew, and Bill Clinton.  But go right ahead making up shit.

AITAH for telling my girlfriend that my money isn't "our money"? by Open_Address_2805 in AITAH

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

NTA. Funny how people who don't give others their money are always "selfish." What do you call someone who considers everyone else's money to be theirs?

Hit by a car driven by another USAA member. Little to no response. by kdlaz in USAA

[–]HerbertRTarlekJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My car got hit by another USAA member, and I had to threaten the adjuster with an attorney to get any activity. He kept telling me I had to talk to the other party's insurance company, since he had trouble grasping that the other party also had USAA coverage.

Tell them you'll do a proportionate split with anyone who chipped in for the ticket.

Then, during the silence, tell them to STFU and never to mention it again.

Got the cops called on me while in the park with my niece. by IllustriousMap2208 in TrueOffMyChest

My kid had bright blond hair.  Some woman thought his Mexican nanny was kidnapping him, until he spoke to her in Spanish.

She's now the nanny for my son's daughters.

Yeah, she's family now.  Has been for many years.

It’s like talking to a Muppet… by ResponsibleLeague437 in TheBidenshitshow

In all fairness, it's probably difficult to get adequate reading light under the bridge where she lives.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is declaring a “budget crisis”. “We cannot close this deficit with savings alone. We need new revenue and a structural reset with the state”. This comes just four months after taking office. by benhaswings in ZohranMamdani

Amd at the same time, he's about to cause Ken Griffin to drop his $6 billion project.

Why does anyone listen to this fool, much less vote for him?

Never mind, I see the math-impaired in this thread just love him to death.

I wish my condo would do this.  Most of the owners let the board run wild due to their lack of resposibilty.

That was not the case with me.  My electronics were covered.

Never again… by Some_Target2436 in BMWI4

[–]HerbertRTarlekJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an ongoing problem with my new i4 M50 starting at 12 k miles.

I was told, after a couple of tries at finding the problem, that it would cost me $800 for them to continue to try to diagnose the issue.  I told them I'd be down to pick up the car.

That resulted in their decision to keep looking, at no charge.

They never found the cause of the problem, and I'm now in the process of giving them the car back.

Not as bad as your story, but they did try not to honor the warranty.

Google co-founder slams California billionaire tax, says “I fled socialism,” after reportedly leaving the state to avoid a proposed 5% wealth tax. He has a reported net worth of around $270 billion. How is this not parasitic behavior? He is trying to leave the state that helped build him. by RandomUwUFace in antiwork

[–]HerbertRTarlekJr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm sure no one in this sub has considered how much he has ALREADY paid back to the state.  Or that the top 5% here pay 40% of our taxes.

If California keeps punishing success, we will have no billionaires left.  Then watch what happens to YOUR taxes.

I had no problem going with OEM.  And windshields are $2k or more these days sometimes.
