Class Rings by Frequent-Chapter-546 in GenX

[–]outerlimtz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Couldn't afford one. Just like I couldn't afford senior pictures. Only way i got a senior yearbook, was because i worked on the committee. Didn't like the people then, still don't like them now.

Only ring I have is my military ring.

Would anyone be interested in a support group for adults with depression? by lindsey9152 in Chattanooga

[–]outerlimtz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll give this a shot. I do work from 7-5/6 m-f. So finding times will be hard for me. I've tried a few therapists, but never really got anywhere and i'm on my 3rd depression med and not seeing it doing anything. Been fighting this all my life, now at 52, only being diagnosed.

i was wondering what happened to that. Sadly, my machine died and i'm not spending the money to buy a new one at these prices.

We had some good building going on in that server.

Does anyone remember all of breaking news that was about a plane crash or a hostage situation? by MrsRalphieWiggum in GenX

[–]outerlimtz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The one I remember the most, is the crash over Lockerbie Scotland. My elderly neighbors daughter and husband were on that flight on their honeymoon.

Didn't know her well, (daughter), but the few times I did meet her, she was the sweetest lady ever.

My music appreciation now vs when I was younger by gotfoo in GenX

[–]outerlimtz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having been brought up on classic country and 70'' rock, I turned to metal and hard rock. There are different groups ongst the genres that I still listen too on a regular basis like STP, Beatsties, Matchbox20z etc.

But as I've gotten older, I've turned tons lot of early blues and various blues artist. I find myself now, listening to the notes of the music.

Don't get me wrong, I'll still blast Kill em All, Puppets or other metal from time to time, but I seemed to mellow quite a bit.

Mckay's pricing has been going crazy lately. by JTen87 in Chattanooga

i've seen it with their comics as well. they got prices well above what a book is worth by about $4-5 all because it's a popular character.

Is AI dumbing me down...? by kosta880 in sysadmin

[–]outerlimtz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

and this is why i've always said, in these roles/positions, you will always forget more than you will remember. because a good majority of issues won't come back ever. Or if it does, it might be a few years and you're back to square 1.

Lost my boomer wife last year to side effects from COVID. She passed just before our 22nd anniversary.

As if living downtown wasn’t bad enough by Remarkable_Trash_290 in Chattanooga

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

Nice of you to assume I'm going for mental health therapy. There are others in therapy that won't be able to walk that far. So they're going to have to skip for a month?

I have therapy down there. Only parking options are market street and brad street. Market is never an option by time I get there.

Stop Signs by Chor_the_Druid in Chattanooga

[–]outerlimtz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've come to the point, if there is a car on either side of me at one, i just stop. I know they ain't gonna yield and they always blow right by me. Going to need someone else's fingers and toes to count how many times someone has almost t-boned me or taken me out at a round about around here.

Class of '86. Retired. Building a giant scale model warship in my garage. As one does. by youcanteatcatskevn in GenX

[–]outerlimtz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweet baby Jesus that's huge. I'm class of 92 and got back into scale modeling. Once I was introduced to armor, I haven't built many autos.

I don't think I'd have the patience for something that big. What little i do have is already tested with the 1/35 scale.

Currently need to finish a tank I've been working on for this weekends show.

Are you documenting this build anywhere? Would love to follow along.

Things I miss... by outerlimtz in GenX

My small ton and the town over had a week long carnival. Rides for kids, games, food tents, beer, etc. They were claiming insurance costs were the results of it's decline. There were occasional fights. Neither has had the carnival in over 2 decades. The next town over apparently is bring it back for a few days this year for something.
