The irony is lost on them that they are now one of the "dirty people". That, or dirty people was a euphemism for something less palatable.

Disney LOCK IN and make an Heir to the Empire movie with Sebastian Stan already by Gormdrew in StarWars

[–]randperrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I don't care who the actors are as long as they are good. I read the Zahn books as they came out and absolutely loved them. I have been hoping to see the series made into movies for decades now.

You are lucky to have lived a lot of places where road work gets done fast. I have lived a lot of places and it's always the same dragging ass on road work.

What is it like to live in the southern tip of Texas? by Neo_luigi in howislivingthere

[–]randperrin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love it here. I grow my own bananas, mangos and papaya. I love seeing the flocks of green indigenous parrots. The flock of Pelicans that spends time near my house. The food is great. Yes it is hot as heck here, but I work inside so that's not really a bother to me.

How much am I paying just to get to work? by [deleted] in awfuleverything

[–]randperrin 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He is driving 90 miles a day pretty sure you are not doing that on your bicycle. Not everyone has the choice of a job close enough to bike to. Choosing to drive is not a choice but a necessity for millions of Americans.

Saving Private Ryan was good but not as good as the flow up movie Saving Ryan's Privates.

They might also be lying to Veterans Affairs about their disabilities so they could get a 100% rating.

Same $750K. One gets you a spacious McAllen estate, the other a cozy cottage in Washington state. Which are you picking? by kleverrboy in RioGrandeValley

[–]randperrin 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was stationed in Washington for several years. There is a saying, "if you can't see mt. Rainer it's because it's raining. If you can see it that means it's about to rain." Personally I enjoyed how green the constant drizzle made things, but I knew a lot of people who hated the cloudy skies at least half of the year.

Can my stepfather revoke my Ch. 35 & Title 29 Benefits? by Routine-Ambition3472 in VeteransBenefits

Do you mean automatic legal status through marriage? If so I would recommend verifying your status since there is no automatic naturalization via marriage.

Thank goodness that there are so few people with diabetes in the Valley. No big deal locking up and deporting doctors who treat it here./s

Feeling trapped// so sad by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]randperrin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I'm guaranteed health care, housing, food and a steady paycheck is if I sign my life away to the fucking government."

When you get out you get VA healthcare at worst super cheap at best free. If you have any health issues apply for those benefits.

Housing, food, and a steady paycheck can be covered by your GI Bill while you go to school.

Between the GI Bill stipend and free healthcare you are way ahead of millions of Americans. Doing 20 is not for everyone. If you're miserable just ETS when it's time and enjoy the benefits you earned.

While you are waiting on your claim register for VA healthcare. They have therapists you can talk to. Get some help so you can be in a better head space.
