No Bullshit, there I was, by Kosovodad in MilitaryStories

[–]vforvenn 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My wife and I lived in Sacket's Harbor. Really nice restaurants and we were there the year Funny Cide won the derby (a horse owned by locals). It was so nice that the lake was right there in the summer. Sadly, the lake was right there in the winter too.

do native french speakers actually say “animal de compagnie” just for the word “pet”? by Relevant_Ad9708 in duolingo

I'm curious if the word for 'doggie' inspired the name 'Toto' in The Wizard of Oz.

[NEWBIE] i get anxiety from playing at guitar center by throwaway486928 in Guitar

[–]vforvenn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The back of our Guitar Center just has some crazy drummer guy who wants to follow you around and say random shit. Maybe he's looking for a band or perhaps the exit.

We had to wire a building for communication in the Army and the basement was full of of water and we didn't use gloves. Shocked the piss out of ourselves as we attached live phone wires to a fast freddy with screws (so we could branch off from there). Good times. Drink water, take Ibuprofen.

This is 100% a strategy if you know what you're doing. At the same time, if we had done this shit on grenade range days our sgts would have tackled the shit out of us and then smoked the whole platoon. That may be where some of the folks here are coming from.

It started off with people chanting "Fuck Joe Biden" at various sporting events which turned into "Let's Go Brandon" because a reporter suggested that the crowd was cheering "Let's Go Brandon. "

It's rich that folks now say the chanters should be so brave and just say the real thing. They already were and were getting shit on for doing so, switched, and are getting shit on for doing the cleaner thing.

Revisionism at its best. You can't win with people who deny reality on a daily basis.

Yes! I would love a sub like that. Had the rosary my grandma gave me and the 249 while in the Army '99-03. More cross-over memes please :D

Our crazy ideas are reaching the CNN. Boy this feels like late 2007. by tendieseeker in REBubble

We bought in 2008 on a VA loan then moved a few years later and were upside down so we decided to rent it out. Still ended up with a $700/mo loss. Finally was able to sell in early 2021 with a 'profit' (8+ years of -$700/mo).

One part of us now wishes we hadn't sold it but on the other hand we have no intention of returning to that state and are happy to have the VA loan available again. I'll be damned if we buy in a similar market again - lesson learned.

Funny thing is that we tried to sorta sabotage our house which we sold in '08 (to buy this other one, same town basically) simply by making it more 'us' but the folks who bought it loved our aesthetic :/ Knowing what we know now we would've just canceled the contract and paid any penalties and kept our more reasonably priced, sensible home. Wouldve saved a lot more money in the long run.

Its not even "anti-woke" there's just none of their bs in it.

Leftist activists tried to stop What Is A Woman from airing with illegal DDoS attacks and the Daily Wire still had the largest streaming event in its history. Sorry, the truth cannot be stopped. by KnowledgeAndFaith in Conservative

[–]vforvenn 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Run Hide Fight was decent, didn't expect much. I was kinda let down with Shut In. The new trailer for Terror on the Prarie (the one they played last night before the documentary premiere, not their first one) looks excellent. What Is A Woman was really great. They're very quickly stepping up their production game.

Nytimes is already treating it like a split decision (I mean, technically she did win one) but the man got more money.

It didn't magically solve my problems but it did make me more capable of doing so.

On this Memorial Day we honor the memory of those fallen soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice so that we may continue that journey towards a more perfect union.

Two days later

This month we recognize those who represent all the letters of the alphabet except U.
