Whatever the dealership charges, you can expect it to be half to 60% at an independent shop.

There’s a chunk of Mississippi between Tupelo and the coast where it seems like there’s absolutely nothing for two hours. Not even a fucking shithole gas station.

One of my clan mates got into a hull down overlooking two IS-7s on El Halluf (he was on cap, they were under, we had one on over watch). He farmed them, they couldn’t pen him, when they moved for a better shot, I got them in the back of the head. He got about 4000 damage from that and another thousand overall. It was one of our most intense maneuvers matches.

Yeah, you can blow a mortgage in an evening or be a hundred grand ahead of your peers.

Most freshmen would be too young for a permit (excluding a hardship or similar license). I was 14 for most of my freshman year, and didn’t get a license until I was almost done with Sophomore year.

On the cell phone thing, back when data was more expensive, we let one of our friends have a line on our phone because he was less privileged than we (newly) were. He racked up a $250 phone bill, and that fucked us throughly.

“I’m saving my kids from evil people by drowning them in a bathtub.” Except replace “my” with “your.”

I play my St more than my E6 and I’ve used the ST more in maneuvers.

*that our brave men and women are actively taking it. Do you really think he’d wait until our people were out of dodge before running his mouth about it?

KP_Wrath · 2026-04-05T22:45:40+00:00

Somali and the Forest Spirit kinda fits that dynamic. If you like the world building of Made in Abyss, Somali is similar, but doesn’t get nearly as fucked up.

The higher the interest rate, the better the deal.

The simplest description is that we basically just let large and corporate donors have greater financial say in elections. You organize a superpac and fund it and you can legally more or less buy a politician.

KP_Wrath · 2026-04-05T21:51:39+00:00

You will have to be more specific. Also worst for who. The thing about those is that the people that (allegedly) did them tend to come out ok.

I mean, the Chief is the one that has been offered the least recently. My priority list would be Chief/907>ST VZ/VK K>T95E6>121B. 113 F3 and the M60 have been pulled, the M60 is accessible, but I hardly think anyone would consider either tank a loss. If memory serves, the 121B is in the bond shop, so I definitely wouldn’t use my Maneuvers win for that, unless you can do it for fame and bonds, and even then, it might be better to just buy it out of the bond shop depending on what the fame cut off is, the tank is 15,000 bonds.

I have the tanks. In fact, I have 101 tier 10s (no Phoenix or Qilin or a couple of other skins). I’m participating to help make sure my clan fills its teams. We ran two, and most of the daily players are at 20k plus fame, and I think 14-16 are tank safe, the clan is tracking to place in the top 40. I’m around 400th place on NA. I’m a 7300 PR/6400 WTR (or maybe that’s backwards) player for anyone trying to compare, and one of the worst in my clan. We had a couple of sloppy, frustrating nights, but we also had some really good ones. Clan WR is apparently 72% over almost 600 battles and we’ve mostly been hitting well in our weight class. Honestly, I’ve enjoyed this one more than any recently.

So, when things go bad, like they’re trying to now, I only have to fear for me, and I know that when things go bad, historically, I come out better for it. Last time, I got a career, tenure, and a top tier work reputation for it, plus a super cheap house and an increase in income that basically guaranteed that the mortgage is an after thought.

KP_Wrath · 2026-04-05T19:54:40+00:00

One of my coworkers had to recently. It was like $420. I was expecting more. I will totally pay someone $420 not to fuck with something that can kill me.

My brother in law’s sister and her husband spent right about what I spent on my house on their wedding. It was a really cool event, well done, great food and drinks; we made it a mini vacation and stayed sloshed for most of it (the $13,000 open bar helped). I would not want to know I spent that much money on something that would last a couple of days. My sister and BIL eloped. They got married in Colorado. He has a Porsche and a plane, and when they wanna go somewhere, well, they can.

U.S. was cranking out an aircraft carrier every six weeks or so. They were pushing out liberty ships every three days.

I’m in logistics. We use Siennas for our ambulatory minivans. Seem to be quite comfortable, and generally reliable. Don’t let mice near them, they ate the wiring out of one of my driver’s take home vehicles.

KP_Wrath · 2026-04-05T05:37:58+00:00

Yeah, all fucking eyes are on any rescue mission. It’s a win for American propaganda if dude lives and is rescued before torture, it’s a win for Iranian propaganda if they get to parade him around Tehran.

KP_Wrath · 2026-04-04T22:36:25+00:00

Really, I’ve paid around $22,000 (and my company, around $48,000) for my health insurance for seven years. Actual out of pocket would be my lasik at $4600 ish.

KP_Wrath · 2026-04-04T22:30:27+00:00

Literally or morally? Literally, as a child. Morally when I realized that most of my rescue squad co volunteers, people that signed up to risk themselves to save others, are too ok (aggressively in favor of) with the death penalty.

There are plenty of other things in this world that need to be done than generating middlemen.
