You are looking at my Thunderheaders, right? That’s what all the guys look at when I ride up. As they should, they are totally awesome pipes. Good performance, nice sound and not too loud.
Thank you so much for taking them in. I have my hands full with our pride, permanent and fosters, but I can give you some advice. Get yourself one of these, fill it with kittens and then get in yourself. They won’t try to climb out because you will be more fun. Its totally great!
I totally agree with this. Its best to know up front. Some people really need to have children, and some people really don’t want them. This is a serious issue and no amount of talking, loving and friendship will make someone who doesn’t want kids suddenly want them. It also won’t make the one who wants kids not want them.
Some things are just set in stone.
My rant: Its hot and humid outside. I bent over to pick up the paper and my glasses fell off and now I’ve got a BIG scratch on the right lens. Of course, I don’t have a copy of my script, and its probably out of date, and its on the weekend so I’ll have to call my ophthalmologist on Monday. I always keep my last set of glasses, but they aren’t that good, so I have the choice of seeing the big scratch for the rest of the weekend or wearing an old set that is already giving me a headache.
Websites where, when you play their videos, they automatically play at the loudest volume by default - whoever thought that was a good idea can go fuck a leafblower.
Even if you don’t have the money, if your pet is having a major issue, like, say, seizures all day, just go to the vet. Don’t wait all day, watching your dog seizure, and then walk into the joint just in time for her to crash so we end up doing 15 minutes of useless CPR on a body that has worn itself out so badly it just dies.
Of course everyone here knows better, just putting this down somewhere in hopes that it will help my brain stop spinning and go to sleep.
I ordered a dress from Lands’ End in my usual size - I own a few of their dresses already and they generally fit me well. This particular dress seems to have been mis-sized as the waist is 3 inches wider than my other dresses - it is humongous! So I went to their website to see if I could do an even exchange. The chat person said sure, just return the dress and reorder it.
I said, “That’s not an even exchange as it’s currently selling for $8 more than what I paid for it.” The chat person said, “Yes it is, you return it and reorder it, it’s an even exchange.” It wasn’t worth my time to argue, but an exchange that costs me more money is NOT an even exchange! Grrr.
I can see not wanting to hash it out in chat. Assuming you haven’t yet returned the dress I’d suggest that you try again, with a live operator this time, to get your original order filled with a garment that fits you.
Further assuming that Land’s End has a customer service that can be reached by phone, of course.
Yep. Sure did. He’s still around, though. Guess he likes me.
In purple-news, my parents had somewhat of a delayed reaction and when I met them on Friday, they BROUGHT IT. On an unrelated note, guess who’s estranged from her parents?
That sounded cavalier when I typed it out, but really, you don’t shit all over me without me shitting back. My mother quite literally said, very loudly** “I don’t want to have a black grandchild! This is not on my agenda!”
** and without the decency to, yanno, look around first.
All I wanted was for them to meet him. Once. In person. If they hated him after that, well, okay. But they couldn’t even do that for me. For my parents, the real issue isn’t my happiness; it’s my obedience.
Hey purple, I’m really sorry your parents acted that way - but you have a good guy just like the others have said. And by the way, hugs. Yeah. I know. It’s the pit. Suck it up and accept the hugs.
On a Missy related rant, you stupid fuck, you had me drive you to the SoS so you could replace your ID today. Who got the fucking paperwork together? Who even KNOWS what paperwork is required? And who said to go first thing in the morning? NOT YOU, FUCKHEAD!! If it weren’t for me, you would be so far up shit’s creek that a paddle wouldn’t help you - nor would a fucking FRONTLOADER!
So instead of taking HOURS out of my work time today while I was driving your ass around, I only spent 1/2 an hour driving there, you walking in, saying screw it, and leaving to so I could drive you all over OTHER places! And now I get to go back to the Secretary of State on another day LIKE I SAID FIRST THING IN THE MORNING you fucking moron! Good God - the only voice you listen to is your own. Has it ever occurred to you that one of us is in and out of perpetual trouble, and another one of us has a driver’s license, a job, and is PAYING FOR ALL THE STUPID SHIT YOU’VE DONE? Guess WHO IS WHO? GROW THE FUCK UP!!
GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER - you are 56 years old - why do I have to be your mommy? It’s getting REALLY OLD - and no, 18 years don’t mean shit when I spend all my time kowtowing to the court ordered requirements that you have to fulfill as a result of your FUCKNUTTERY!!! It’s getting old, husband. It’s getting REALLY FUCKING OLD. And you know what? I’m half inclined to tell you that FUCK NO I won’t drive you for the next series of “court ordered appointments” you have - WALK, ASSHAT! And your debit card ain’t going to help you - that’s getting cancelled TODAY.
I DIDN’T DO ANYTHING! WHY SHOULD I BE FUCKING PUNISHED BECAUSE YOU ARE ACTING LIKE A SELF ENTITLED WHINY BITCH ASSHOLE??
GAH!!!
Sorry - I had to get that out. I’m so seriously pissed off right now.
Yes, I love my husband - and yes, he has many wonderful qualities - but I’m so sick and motherfucking tired of having to take fucking care of an adult 10 years older than I am because he can’t bother to try.
My son has been cut from a hockey team he so wanted to be a part of. It was a travel team set to go to Ft. Wayne Indiana at the end of July to be in a tournament.
Ok, I get that. But I’m mad at the coach for waiting 2 weeks to finally tell me and that’s only because I went and asked him. Yeah, he said he was busy but he could have taken the time to send an email.
We turned down being a part of another team just so he could be on this one and I feel like shit for doing that because that coach has a heart of gold and tries so much for the kids.
But you know, screw summer sports anyways. I’m tired of having to set our summers around their schedule of practices, games, and tournaments. I want my family to take a vacation when we want and not have the hassle of asking permission.
Good. There is too much forced organization of kids time now. They never seem to have time to just fart around being a kid because they have soccer/dance/little league whatever/playdate with some other kid they hate/enrichment classes/violin lessons. My brother and I used to leave after breakfast with instructions to be home when it got dark, and there was a mob of us running around and if we got hungry we could more or less stop for lunch or a snack at anybodies house that we were currently playing at or near. We never worried about perverts or kidnappers - and there were both perverts and kidnappers at the time, they just never got the whole damned recreational outrage shuffle for advertising and viewership garbage that goes on now.
