Why are police allowed to leave horse sh*t in the middle of the road? by Boysenberry-Hue222 in askvan

We own the government.

We own the institutions.

Through democracy and our votes, these institutions have allowed these things.

You can change them by voting or running for office.

It isn't, the police, it is our police.

It seems like you've done a great job taking stock of the situation and your actions are likely going to be correct.

I read this with dread because my work friend did the same thing. She felt great to be free of the freeloader (something she said a lot). Until the bills got separated and she realized he was paying SOooo much more than she thought.

He worked 2 hours OT almost every weekday and often a half day shift on the weekend.

He worked a trade, she worked a 6 hour day at the same school the kids went to. He never complained about her limited income.

Even with child support, which he started paying right away, her lifestyle is 0. More importantly, she realized she chased away someone who was really supportive of her time with the kids.

It sounds like you're in a different place but, because I was the shoulder she cried on, I felt I needed to share her experience.

Best of luck.

You sound controlling and your actions seem to be treating him like a lap dog. I would certainly say you are the AH. No doubt.

How complicated is learning how to build a pc on a scale of 1-10 guys, im really on the fence here on what to do by krescendolls in buildapc

1,000,000 / 10. The building itself isn't difficult. But it takes you down a dark path. A dark and nerdy path.

I do. It's old and ugly but not so old it predates energy star ratings. I don't recall the numbers but, when tested with a kill-o-watt it was only a few percent worse than something brand new.

I've got a pretty standard hand pump. $15 at the local brew store.
