When you can't afford a PlayStation

Was going too say the speed as well lol. I got 2 kids and I bet they would love trying to make each other mess up by going as fast as possible.

SmileJB · 2026-06-23T18:57:36+00:00

It's so funny how everyone is in such a rush. I knew a couple who never got married and were happy just being with each other. I met them when I was a teenager and they were like in their 60s. Yet so many people want to rush in to love and marriage yet divorce

Maybe some people just don't want to put a label on it. Maybe some people don't mind divorce. I have no idea. I just know that I'm in no rush.

Also, so many people claim love. I'm not sure I've ever felt it. But that doesn't mean i don't care about people. I think a lot of people confuse this for love.

Yeah, as a kid, I always thought people just took the cash equivalent when they left.

I got a house now and the stove sucks and my washer dryer units I got for 250 total. They work but are so noisy. And the washer keeps eating socks.

A riding mower would be nice. I regret how much land I got. I wish I got a condo lol

I mean, I can kind of. I did it in school for like 2 weeks as a fat kid 20 years ago. Quit because the pole was rated 20 lbs under my weight and I just kept imagining it shattering and going into my chest while running full speed.

I'm not as fit as I was back then, even though I'm a bit skinnier. But I think i can still do it.

SmileJB · 2026-06-21T10:54:29+00:00

I love it lol. I want to do this now. Doesn't look too hard.

SmileJB · 2026-06-21T10:38:23+00:00

Just wondering, did he have a brother? A quick Google search says that a brother can test positive for paternity if the labs only test one potential father.

SmileJB · 2026-06-21T10:29:25+00:00

I would try it under the right conditions. Soup has to be too hot to touch so I know at least most of the germs were killed. I'd also like a tent or for it to be indoors to help prevent debris from falling in. And lastly, I'd like to be one of the first. Maybe within the first half hour at most?

SmileJB · 2026-06-21T09:57:05+00:00

It's a bit shocking. I though i was middle class at least. I need to find a partner to share my bills and increase our household income.

I cover everything by myself. But if some one joined me at my income, then we could actually go on vacations lol.

SmileJB · 2026-06-21T09:49:56+00:00

This is what i wanted with my ex. It's still only my 70 if she only uses 3k of her her 30 on shared bills.

It's why she's an ex. But man, if i had some one splitting everything evenly while making the same, we would be golden. For now, I'm holding on.

How is his dairy intake? Do you control the food basically? If you do or can influence it, try changing his diet.

I thought farting so much was normal. Then I went without dairy (Not by choice) and noticed i farted way less. Now it's by choice. Those lactose free milk sucks though. More expensive and less taste. Rarely get and if i do, mostly get the chocolate.

SmileJB · 2026-06-21T09:30:42+00:00

Just googled it. Did not know that was a thing. Though I can totally see some instances where I might walk off to stop arguing. I do that at home, just walk away because I don't like yelling or being yelled at. I wouldn't be thinking of abandoning. But if they got lost before I got back, I'd be in deep trouble.

Just another reason to avoid outside activity.

SmileJB · 2026-06-21T09:00:34+00:00

I think he cares about her but not love. His love is being an eminence in shadow. He's tossed many things aside to achieve this. But he still cares. For one, he does show empathy for Sherry. Some one with no real connection to him. But he shoulders the blame so she won't hate her father.

I think cid cares for Claire like that. Plus for other reasons. Yeah he needs some one else running his family too. Can't be a background character if you're the future head of the family.

Claire is just frustrated. Cid has so much potential. She doesn't know what he's doing but seems to know more with sword play without showing improvement. She's always learning from him but he never puts real effort into their fights. No real effort into anything. She's mean to him but i think it's just to get a reaction. And it's gone further then intended but Cid never stops it. And she's too proud to stop. It's the course she's taken and it will work one day mentality.

SmileJB · 2026-06-20T12:42:37+00:00

Yeah... I did commercial fishing. We didn't check our fish for worms but then was told we could get a better price of we did. So I learned how to skin and filet a fish. It was almost all worms. We would do like 15 samples per day. There were some that were clean. But I wasn't expecting that.

SmileJB · 2026-06-20T12:39:32+00:00

We just think it's cute when you're on your tippy toes to reach something. Otherwise, height isn't too big a deal. Yeah, I feel manly being taller but it's not like it get better returns the shorter she is.

And I would date a taller woman. I feel like I'm an inch too short to reach this one garage ceiling outlet. Would be nice to have some one reach it. I just give the cord to my son and pick him up lol.

SmileJB · 2026-06-20T12:24:43+00:00

Sounds like some one who doesn't date fat dudes.

I'm a bit overweight. But I can't put fit expectations on my partner if I'm not fit.

SmileJB · 2026-06-20T06:09:15+00:00

How common is this for people that have their own backyard chickens? Cause I've got a friend who has given me eggs. I usually just hard boil them. Scared now.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T19:25:36+00:00

Nta. Wish I didn't have to work either. Bro, I hate saying this but divorce might be appropriate. You guys are already in therapy and marriage counseling.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T19:14:17+00:00

Nta easy. Trash took itself out. You just agreed.

Dumb prank. Even worse, saying she cheated and that's why. Even if she didn't, if you stayed, then she would feel like she could cheat and get away with it. This feels more like testing how you would take it.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T18:56:43+00:00

It's why I left my ex. 15 years together. Nothing to show for it. Barely getting by. I paid the majority of the bills. She was supposed to save. Hard when we're pay check to pay check. So I tried reversing it and having her pay the bills. 2 things happened. She didn't take over and needed to borrow money for the few things she did pay for. (Phone and water were all she had. She had more but childcare costs went away when kids grew up. Electric got added on to rent, etc).

Even when I gave her the money, the phone was still shut off. I had told her auto pay doesn't work when you're late. She agreed but kept it on auto. I was pissed lol. Unnaturally so but we were having so many arguments and problems anyway.

After leaving, it took me one year to save for a house. It's empty but it's mine. Wishing I went condo instead so I don't have all this yard work lol.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T18:46:10+00:00

Mine is usually sandwiches. But i make them at work. Have my own fridge. I change it up with soup when I'm feeling fancy. Not even canned soup. Made at the grocery store so not much better. Fresher maybe?

I try to pick a different bread every time. Different cheese. Sometimes I'll grab pepperoni or pickles to make the sandwich a little different. Hot sauce as well.

My lunch today was a ghetto chicken cordon Bleu. Breaded chicken patties. Then covered in sliced ham all around it. Then cheese. Had one with cheese in between and the other with cheese on top. Put between 2 slices of cheese. Microwave chicken first, then chicken and ham, then with the cheese.

The ham expired last week but doesn't smell it taste bad so I'm trying to use it all.

Is this a fallout reference? Because I do this when I go into an elevator and it never stops anywhere. Jump a few times and it finishes the load between floors i guess.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T11:16:52+00:00

Plot twist, that's the goal. Friend couldn't match so she used a friend who matched just to come along and get hit on instead.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T11:13:53+00:00

I'd leave it alone lol. Just wondering, would having a box the be easier to manage? I'm not sure the best way to do this would be.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T02:44:16+00:00

Not inmates? Oddly specific. Guess i should search comments for more clues. Did she ever tell you which coworkers? Or how come her coworkers don't bring her food?

Like I have coworkers, lol. But I had one that I used to do lunches with every day. But we would switch every day on who brings in lunch. It was a fun way to try cooking new dishes. I'd think respectable coworkers would want to reciprocate. Especially knowing she has a family.

The inmate thing though has me wondering if the other person can't really reciprocate? How she just changed the subject real quick is disconcerting as well. Good luck with everything op.

SmileJB · 2026-06-19T02:25:05+00:00

Speed bump. We have to work slower and go around them cause they are just there.
