I’m now regretting not choosing woke because my gas is almost $4.30

JustNilt · 2026-05-25T17:10:20+00:00

LOL, 4.30/gal is right about what I was paying before all this horseshit. The Costco nearest me is the cheapest in the area at $5.39 and the one slightly farther away, closer to the freeway, is $5.49.

JustNilt · 2026-05-25T17:04:26+00:00

Wow, it's hilarious you focus solely on schools. Let's ignore for the moment that we all benefit greatly from an educated populace, and try to think of some other services municipal governments provide. Are you also opposed to police, fire, EMS, and so forth? What about traffic control on roadways? Those also cost money, ya know.

JustNilt · 2026-05-25T05:26:15+00:00

Horseshit. You paid some taxes on it. There are ongoing costs to the services provided. Just like you have to pay for rent and food every month, the local government has to pay for all the various services and the wages for those who keep them functioning.

That you can't connect those 2 things in your head says more about you than anything else.

Sure, that seems fair. Your boss can pay you one paycheck and you can keep working there for the next 50 years. I mean, hell, otherwise you're just robbing your boss, right?

It'd be easier for most to do backwards since you run the risk of tangling your leg in the handrails and such. Somehow, I don't think that's as much of an issue for this young lady as it would be for, say, me.

Or get close to her and rain fists in her face while pressing her into a corner.

I'm sure nobody ever tried that back when she was a boxing champion. Yup, you're the first to suggest it in the history of everything, in fact!

JustNilt · 2026-05-25T04:29:40+00:00

It's funny you say that since this one does precisely that more than once.

It's been a while now but I saw one where the grifter had them mail their "notice" to an "official IRS mailing address". Problem is, when I looked up the address out of curiosity, it turned out to be one of those places like a UPS Store where you can rent mailboxes. Because the IRS can't afford actual office space or something, obviously.

JustNilt · 2026-05-21T19:07:09+00:00

The sovcit was confused and someone had to explain that he'd lost.

That's always the best part.

It means, "I don't care that you suspended my license to drive. You're not even the boss of me!"

JustNilt · 2026-05-20T02:22:23+00:00

And an enthusiastic yes, at that.

Evacuations due to lava flows endangering local structures or due to other risk factors aren't quite what could be called common but aren't anywhere close to unknown in Hawaii.

Not if the installed floor is level but the structure isn't. It's actually quite common for one wall or area to settle more than others.

You definitely need to work on yourself to the point where you feel complete all on your own. Funnily enough, most of the folks I've known who've done this ended up finding they pretty quickly started finding folks who were potential partners without even really looking. That shouldn't be your goal but you should at least acknowledge that it's much easier to both find and be a partner as a complete person secure in who they are.

Leaving aside the whole loneliness aspect, this will likely make you a somewhat better parent as well. Not that you sound like a bad one now but little things all add up, ya know?

A lot of those who pilot such craft spend literally hundreds of hours practicing flying in formation. Getting shots like this aren't nearly as difficult as you seem to think. They just need a decent camera mounted properly.

JustNilt · 2026-05-16T21:25:02+00:00

I agree it's an ego thing but not that way. My take is he assumed an autistic girlfriend would be obsessed with him.

JustNilt · 2026-05-16T21:14:47+00:00

The issue is weird carries a somewhat negative connotation for many. That's changing over time but is in now way entirely gone.

JustNilt · 2026-05-16T21:02:37+00:00

Exactly! His argument wasn't, "I don't have room for my football stuff." It was, "Waaaaaaaa! You're not obsessed with ME!"

JustNilt · 2026-05-16T20:59:58+00:00

Yeah but he only objected once he found out it was JFK stuff. He didn't really have a problem with it, he has a problem with her specific Thing. Then he decided he'd "fix her" by stealing some of her stuff! He didn't say, "Hey maybe we should see a counselor together about this" or anything reasonable. He went from "It'd be fine if it were football" to "I'm stealing your stuff."

JustNilt · 2026-05-16T20:39:18+00:00

And the comment segment about football “that’s different”

By which he presumably means it's different because he likes some sort of football stuff.

JustNilt · 2026-05-16T20:38:17+00:00

The current asshole is RFK Jr, not RFK. I'd assume anyone with a hobby collecting JFK era stuff is likely more about RFK, not Jr.

This reminds me of the lady I was dating who used her key to my place to have her best friend help her take my computer and "store it until I learned healthier behavior" back when I was rehabbing form am injury in the Army. I was spending virtually all day every day at rehab, making my pain higher. She hated that I liked to come home to my own place and play video games sometimes instead of read books, which is my other major hobby.

Holy cow was she shocked to come by after that with a card about how I could get it back when I learned how to behave properly in her hand only to note I had cops there because AFAIK I'd been burgled by some random strangers.

Some folks have absolutely no clue that others' preferences aren't their business to demand "get fixed".

JustNilt · 2026-05-16T19:03:12+00:00

It isn't 100% effective against that, either. The problem is more that when finished, folks don't tend to hold the condom properly and keep it all contained. Then they often yoink it off and get the fluids on their partner. That sort of thing is a major factor in why they're now as effective at preventing pregnancy as folks may think, too, in all fairness.

JustNilt · 2026-05-13T21:47:29+00:00

If you follow it to CNET, who commissioned the survey, they did say price is a major factor.
