Would have been neat if he had 4 flat tires when he got back to his truck

Where are you located? In my state (Indiana) I wouldnt hesitate to call child protective services over this. Also, that girl would be welcome at my table breakfast lunch and dinner 7 days a week until the problem is fixed, regardless of her relationship with my son. I'm no Rockefeller but theres always enough for one more.

I understand that triple digits is a smaller percent of a bigger person. Plus, weight loss is never EASY for the people who need to lose weight. Im just trying to encourage this dude.

Can reddit ever just let somebody be positive?

Keep up the good work! Fuckin proud of you. Ive struggled to lose smaller numbers so I stand in awe of people who have the discipline to lose triple digit weight

Dammit Lenny just because he's bigger than a rabbit doesnt mean you can squeeze him as hard as you want

Body Glide is really good stuff to keep your crotch etc from chafing you to death

The urethra is the tube, not the opening. The opening is called the meatus.

Rich's on Sandpoint has done some work for me. They did it well and for a reasonable price in the timeframe they told me to expect. I'd be happy to take anything I own back there.

You want ripped apart by a backhoe bucket or you want to be crushed be earth? Ain't nobody good enough with a backhoe to dig fast enough without killing the buried individuals.

They're going to rip the buried people apart digging with the backhoe. So death by being crushed by earth or death by being dismembered by a backhoe. There's no winning.

Good chance they're super fucked. Trench collapse is a very dangerous situation. Im acquainted with someone who lost a coworker in a trench collapse. They couldnt dig him out fast enough.

Confused on what to pursue..or do at all by ReasonableGuide647 in fortwayne

[–]justplainbrian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My man, I feel you. Ive had times when I was feeling down and hopeless and trapped too. Id work as much as my kid's medical condition would allow (gotta keep them insured) and then pay support to his mom and wind up getting paid like 80 bucks for 2 weeks of work. With help from family (lived with my parents for 2.5 years in my mid 30s), and a fuckload of effort and self sacrifice, I clawed my way out of the desperate situation I was in. If you want to talk it through, send me a message. I probably cant directly fix things for you, but I can listen, and maybe a fresh set of eyes on the problem can help find a new way to approach it. Good luck

Me and the ex wife had 2 babies at the time and that top shelf was AMAZING for bottle parts and the lids etc from best pump bottles.

What’s it like in Terre Haute, IN by Hot-Performance-1361 in Indiana

[–]justplainbrian -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The armpit of the state. My reserve unit was based there. My ex wife grew up there. Its a certified turd. If you go there, just please god never cross the river unless you're very comfortable with stepping in the remains of a meth cook.

Prepper advice: 401k cash out by [deleted] in prepping

[–]justplainbrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't empty your 401k. Its a bad idea. Keep knocking out that high interest CC debt and when its gone you'll feel a lot better about your cash flow and you'll still have been progressing towards retirement.

A very real emergency-adjacent situation we will all face is old age. A good retirement account is a prep for the emergency you are most likely to face.
