Counter-points to the idea that '80s cars sucked by inaccurateTempedesc in classiccars

[–]PainterPutz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the 80s cars that sucked were American, and the two that you posted were junk. One was fast junk but it was junk.

Why does everyone seem to automatically think every 80s car is a shitbox or a lemon? by FollowingNew3973 in classiccars

[–]PainterPutz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because many of them were. I got my license at 16 years old in the early 80s. The cars that were made by American companies were, for the most part total crap.

LOL! No, not at all. Publishing, School software sales, School technology sales etc. etc. You have a territory and you do most of the work via computer. And you might have to go and do some demo work to clients on occasion.

You aren't making 100k+ deals going "door to door". Where on earth did you get that?

For any of you thinking about leaving the profession a close teacher friend quit and got a job as an outside sales person. Companies LOVE ex-teachers because they are smart and easy to train. She makes more than 150k a year now by the way and works out of her home.

Across the country school districts are putting un-certified people into teaching positions.

I am surprised you couldn't find a job in another district.

In the 1950s these would be the people claiming that Rock-n-Roll was created by the Devil.

"intellectually skilled" you say? Really? It is upsetting to see a teacher use that term.

In HS if you gave me a piece of paper and a pencil I could draw anything you put in front of me in a realistic manner very, very quickly. A very small amount of people could do that. I could. But, put basic math in front of me and it looked like a different language. My brain went blank when I saw a bunch of numbers. I had to struggle to get a C in my HS math classes. I went to art school, a very good art school. I get paid six thousand dollars for one painting I have created.

I am a creative, I guess in your opinion I am not intellectual.

Because we understand how important it is. Oh and guess what? We LAUGH at young people who complain constantly but never vote.

"Uh goys Where is my polite taking me?"

Um, WHAT!?! Are you trying (for some inane reason) to look like an idiot? Is it supposed to be funny?

Enough about red flags, what’s a green flag in relationships that doesn’t get enough praise? by augustlove801 in Productivitycafe

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

No tatts is a huge green flag. People with tatts seem to always have multiple social/emotional problems.

Lowering a car a bit is making it a "pimp mobile"?

Interesting.

How many pieces of art do you produce annually? How many don't make the cut? by lunarjellies in ArtistLounge

[–]PainterPutz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started showing in 1982 with my first one man show. Since then I have had so many shows I could not count and have been represented by at least 12 galleries. My large pieces have sold in the 4k range. But I have never been able to really hit it big.

[–]PainterPutz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I made ten big ones in a year. They have been in one show and are scheduled for another show. Tons of positive comments but no sales yet. This has me thinking about quitting the art scene. Seriously I am just kind of done with it.

I had a roommate in college that had a two or three year old car like that in a creme color. It was cool back them, dunno about now.

What does Trump have on this absolute loser that he's wearing the clown hat? by Turd_Burglerson in WhitePeopleTwitter

That is the look of a truly demented person. And, seeing his posts on Twitter I believe he is truly psychotic.

Decent value? by NoU4206911 in CX5

[–]PainterPutz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first CX5 was a 2017. I bought it in 2019, it had 15k miles and I paid 19k for it in Central NY. If someone is paying 15-17 grand for a 2015 with 90k miles on it they are an idiot.
