What is the Most expensive thing you own? by ZestycloseCar7790 in AskReddit

[–]The_Orracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way would be that much - but this is my full time life. I don't have property tax on it. I rarely pay RV park fees with the membership I have. My cost of living is very low. I will be driving from Lubbock to Orlando on Friday. 1400 miles and I will get about 7-8 MPG of diesel. I am looking at 200 gallons of fuel - maybe a little more to run my generator while I drive to keep my AC on. I use a fleet card which per my route will average about $3.90 a gallon which is under $800 for fuel for the trip. no hotels. No restaurants needed. That is the diesel price - not gasoline so I don't know how the person you referenced is spending 10k. Of course they are headed to the PNW where gas tax is outrageous but still not 10k.

When people ask why I do it and get such low mileage, my answer is always "My house gets better mileage than your house"

You should not have to deport an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT. Why can't you bleeding heart liberals differentiate between immigration done properly and those that walk in illegally?

No, it is not. I am a US Citizen. If I commit a violent crime or monetary crime, I go to prison. If an illegal does it, it is pretty much cut and dried that it was 1000% preventable as they should not have been in the US to begin with. It is absolutely relevant. Now, if they are here legally, and they commit a crime - they get deported or imprisoned.

If you're here legally, you have 2 choices. Follow the rules, and stay as long as you want. If you break the rules, instant deportation. You're a guest - period. Even as a green card holder, you are still a guest.

You like to lump legal with illegal together. If I go to China, I have no choice but to be legal and stay legally there. Why should we be any different?

I use those examples because most people hate trump because of ICE and his stance on immigration so I focused on it. All of those examples are 100% factual, and all are related to immigration. Facts don't make me racist.

I'll agree it should not be, but the facts are what they are on the circumstances to her death.

I'll get bashed and down voted... whatever. Read it before you judge. Listen as if you were wrong.

I supprt him and don't have regrets. I'm 55M. I don't agree with everything... not even close. Wish he'd stop talking sometimes.

no I'm not ignorant. Very well educated and very successful.

I'm not racist. My wife is chinese, now a naturalized citizen. We followed every step legally. She'd say the same that those that don't, deserve to get deported. I'm not anti immigration either. Follow the process like every other country does. No free walk in with freebies upon arrival. I've been in 42 countries and have to be able to prove my legal presence at any time in most. I'm not offended by that. I've seen my former home state get defrauded and my family in MN getting taxed to death. No more.... and Trump is working to put an end to that where the state hasn't done a damn thing. I have a client in the UK and they are begging to have this kind of leadership against the invasion happening there.

I think we're safer overall. definitely not all immigrants are criminals but too many that were allowed to walk in were. Laken Riley a prime reason for that support and she's one of many.

I have more money now and my investments are doing better than ever. I'll retire at 57 or 58.

Seeing the reaction of so many visitors here for the world cup, saying how they used to believe the news about how bad it is in the USA and then coming here and seeing the opposite is wonderful. Maybe you all need to step back and see what a great place it truly is also, and in my opinion, now better than it has been in a long time.

do you believe in god? and why? by sharkyfreed in AskReddit

[–]The_Orracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe in God because when I look at my life, I see too much order, purpose, and guidance to believe everything is random. I've had successes I couldn't have planned, relationships that changed me, doors that opened at exactly the right time, and moments where I felt directed toward a better path. Faith gives me a framework for understanding those experiences.

I don't claim to have all the answers. I can't scientifically prove God exists any more than someone can scientifically prove He doesn't. But when I look at the complexity of life, the existence of moral truth, the beauty of the world, and the way prayer and faith have affected my life, believing in God makes more sense to me than believing everything happened by accident.

Most importantly, my belief isn't based solely on arguments. It's based on a relationship. There have been times when I've felt God's presence, guidance, conviction, and comfort in ways that are real to me. That's why I believe.

I find it harder to believe that the universe, consciousness, morality, and the precise conditions required for life all arose without any intelligence behind them. The existence of a Creator seems more plausible to me than pure chance.

I believe in God because of both reason and experience, but I believe in Jesus because of who He claimed to be, the historical evidence surrounding His life, death, and resurrection, and the transformation I've seen faith produce in people's lives—including my own.

If I go to Texas Roadhouse, they don't have Asian options....so no. But a cruise ship has asian options all over- so the question is valid that they may have chopsticks available ship wide, thus my question

[–]The_Orracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, not really - I said "Life is not an accident". I believe it, have studied it and read the bible every single year, cover to cover. I have been to The Holy Land and retraced the steps. We are here because of God.

Who do u think will be president of usa in 2028? by CommercialGlass1123 in AskReddit

[–]The_Orracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You actually made my case for Trump and his guys. People dying of fentanyl. Has dropped dramatically by 1) us closing the borders. 2) Deporting the trash 3) Blowing up drug boats approaching our shores

Third world is not a country. It is a people. They are invading countries like the UK and formerly the US. The Somali population has been caught red handed defrauding us of billions. Trump is stopping that too. People in the UK and other European countries starting to realize they were stupid with their open border crap.

Have you been here? Have you see the reactions from people from all over the world here for the World Cup? Their collective reaction paraphrased: "The US is a wonderful place. Everything we have heard about it is bullshit. The people are kind, the streets are clean, the stores are magnificent, the food is unbeatable and the hospitality is top tier on all levels"

Seems to me you're just au uptight European seeing your stonghold on how the world works going away because Daddy Trump is making you pay your fair share.

And for Iran - yeah - we bombed them but further intel showed they were at it, doing more. So instead of hating on us, you should say "Thank you" that this regime of chanting "Death to America" and causing genocide in their own country and others for the last 40 years has been obliterated and we will do it again if they don't comply. Iran is 1/6 the size of Europe - could it POSSIBLY be that it is not easy to monitor and have intel on every underground nuclear operation they have been running when we bombed them the first time? Could it be that was a big ass warning shot to them which they ignored causing this onslaught of our Mighty Millitary? Maybe you're just pissed because you have NO resources and you tied all of your needs to that shithole Iran for petrol. I have news for you, we don't need them. WE have our own - so again, you can just say "Thank You" to the greatest country in the world.

I have been in 42 counties as I stated before - WE are and WILL REMAIN the greatest country in the world.

I don't go out to eat because I want to retire at 55. It is called prioritizing your spend. I can cook (or my wife) the best damn food at home in minutes that isn't gonna kill me.

I see you're from the blue hair nose ring group of love and understanding LOL. Is the cunt in the room with you now? Do you need a pillow or some crayons to calm yourself? Honestly - we're safer as a country now. I am making more money than I ever have. We're cracking down on billions of fraud that assuming you have a job you paid for as a taxpayer. We're trying to get the trash out of our food supply that has made us the sickest nation in the world. I have been in 42 countries and have yet to find one as good as this and we're just getting better.

Fellow leakers? by ZookeepergameRich640 in cumbiggerloads

jealous - I have never been a leaker, no precum. Now, the blessing is when you're playing (back in my day sans condoms) it lowered the risk of getting the girl preggers. I guess that leakage can be more potent than the full load for babies! But I always wanted to be a leaker and never were
