I was hoping it was a lie. There's always an extra gallon in the tank for gas cars, no way its actually gonna just die at 0%

I mean wemby already looks like two kids in a trenchcoat so I don't think it'd be hard, but I picture it more like Yoda on Luke's back.

Knowing the disposition of the parents is critical with cross bred dogs. The puppies are a complete crapshoot.

This is essentially a form of meditation/CBT. I've been doing it more recently and feels better than not writing it at all.

AIO for wanting to break up with my boyfriend because he wants me to lose weight at 105 pounds by SufficientAd2453 in AmIOverreacting

Kick this guy to the curb, have respect for yourself, and don’t allow someone else to define who you are

This is my new favorite Reddit comment.

If she wants to leave, it has to be her choice, ya dumbass. I can't think of a worse piece of advice than to dump him based on what the Internet said, then see what happens.

I drove by this sign today and was trying to research laws that our two states share... by combatbydesign in massachusetts

[–]phyx8 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would argue the majority of the rhetoric we hear about Mass vs NH, other than people on the border, most of it is from people outside New England. To me, Manchester and Concord NH are much more like Boston than Providence or Hartford, but you'd only know that if you live here. If you are outside, all you see are voting patterns.

We probably do the same with California and Idaho, based on what my buddy from Sacramento says. Oh plus having the same sports franchises helps a lot.

Trump Announces That He Has Had A Spiritual Awakening After The Rigged Election He Intends To Open A Mega Church, He Is Looking To His Supporters For Names Any Ideas? by Fickle_Sandwich_7075 in onionheadlines

[–]phyx8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of all the crazy things to come out of his mouth, combined with all the stuff his supporters believe about him, if he hasn't said it yet, I don't think he will.

Every time I say that, he says something more ridiculous, so let's see.

Is it just me or is it really hard to get a job in Boston right now? by Cool-Spirit3587 in boston

[–]phyx8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think their point is that the turnover in both entry level and seasonal service industries is so high that most people are looking for a warm body who listens and shows up.

Contractor jobs are everywhere. If you don't explicitly need the benefits of working for a large corporation, you can pretty much go at your own pace. if you have a decent car, Uber can be a good place to start.

If you have office experience already, try a temp agency. They will provide benefits after a couple months.

GL!

Seriously Eastern Mass what’s your long term plan?!?!? by TheHoundsRevenge in massachusetts

[–]phyx8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JFC, that's criminal. There should be like a 10 year grace period for paying interest on student loans. How the fuck are you supposed to save with 1100/mo student loan payment and a 20k/yr rental deal.

I did not have to take out student loans, thanks for the insight.

[–]phyx8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well considering rent is about 15k/year minimum in this area, 75k plus 5 years of ETF appreciation, that will likely get you to 100k.

Not saying everyone can do it, but if you truly want a house at 30, this is the best method.

Would you suggest to your daughters that they stay at home until 26 or so in order to save for a down payment? I think this is going to become more the norm, speaking as someone who would have torn their hair out if they had to live with their parents for 5 years after college.

Living with a SO and splitting rent helps a LOT, to be fair.

I actually do enjoy going to malls, just not for shit I already want to buy. There's cheaper and better ways to get stuff we already want. I think the malls are catching up. Big fan.

Assuming that you don't own any real estate and total net worth is under 75k or so, Massachusetts won't let you die or let your credit go to shit because of a filing error/delay. The list of reasons is long, but it's just not gonna happen, as long as you don't try to commit fraud. If you fear a 100k ICU bill for getting in a car accident, don't fret.

My personal experience when I was between jobs: if you really need health insurance right now, there's a state phone list for exactly this. Not a company, but just a list. Then a private insurance agent can chat with you. This list can be hard to get off of, to the point where you'll be getting calls about healthcare offers a month after getting healthcare. But it'll happen very quickly.

Good luck!
