Still waiting on my money they took from my tax return for something about my dads ssi from over 30 years ago.

Long story short, I paid over $4,000 for an immediate family members' lawyer. Said family member decides to cuss out the lawyer for "not working fast enough", even though they were on the final steps of what they were hired for. So the lawyer drops the person as a client. Basically the partial refund somehow found its' way to him instead of me (thanks to a bunch of other family interference), and I get a Facebook message basically saying "I spent it all, you're not getting anything back or any payments. PS I hate you and you're not my family anymore".

Not a big fan of fish so the only sushi I'll eat are variations of the spicy tuna roll. It was pretty good but kind of expensive. I just gotta stop eating pizza and burgers for lunch everyday.

I'm sure it has been said many times, but never hurts to reiterate: Never lend out money with the expectation that you'll get it back. It just won't happen. And if you do, always get it in writing.

I just don't like seafood in general. Even looking at those giant water spiders like crabs and lobsters makes me queasy.

Also, I should just start bringing my own lunch. In fact I'll stop by Stop n Shop on my way home and grab some sodium free turkey slices, pears and nectarines like I used to always eat for lunch at work. My journeyman likes to eat out for lunch and I love lovely food so it's easy to fall into that trap.

Yep, basically this.

I don't lend money to friends anymore unless it's so they can eat and get to job interviews, and even then, rarely. Depending on how much they need and how annoying they are, I may or may not lend money to people I'd rather never hear from again, however. The more annoying, the more I'll lend...

Fuckin' hell. I gotta get my car emissions tested, and the office is only open from 8 to 4:30 on weekdays - I work a full time job, mind you - and from 8 to 1 on Saturdays. And it's probably gonna be busy as poo poo on Saturdays.

Everyone hates getting up early on the weekend. If it's like every other business it'll be fairly quick to get in and out at 8 am. At least that's been my experience with the dmv and county clerks office.

I Want To Believe.
I suffer from the same issue a lot of the time - I'm very lucky to get early finishes on Fridays to let me sort out stuff like that, and work is cool with me having all my poo poo delivered there. It amazes me that there aren't services which do things like deliveries only outside normal working hours. Paying people for a shift that runs, say, 5pm-10pm has no reason to cost a great deal more than paying them to work 7am-noon if you don't have it as an additional shift on top of a "normal" day one.

I'm sure if someone did a deal with, say, Amazon and/or other big mail-order entities, people would be more than happy to pay a fraction more for a courier delivery to be guaranteed to be between when they get home from work and when they go to bed.

Eh, that's kinda true with the local DMV. At least, it's the difference between a 30 minute wait and a 3 hour wait.

Do you have to get the emissions test done by the end of the month? End of the month usually seems to be the most insane time, so if you can I would say wait a week or 2 then show up close to 8am on a saturday.

Yes. I'm a strong advocate and supporter of equal rights and treatment for women, and I act on those beliefs in my daily life and through established political mechanisms. When Jezebel fans start screeching about all men being rapists and it floods my social media feed, it pisses me off. When the latest internet feminist campaign says men shouldn't be allowed to defend themselves against generalizations in feminist debate, it pushes me off the edge. Its just as bad as what some men do to women. Just because I was born with a penis doesn't make me a chauvinist.

Pretty much. I've lent out probably well over $600 to people, never seen a cent back. Whatever, most of that money was for emergencies or to keep a roof over their head. I consider it part of my karma, since I'm usually such a misanthrope.

My best friend and I on the other hand have kind of a barter system, we've probably traded/swapped/paid each other the equivalent of a couple grand over the years.

I really doubt a website as mainstream as Jezebel is calling all men rapists, you shouldn't conflate that with the really marginal writing you see on tumblr, also holy poo poo lol you're calling being mischaracterized as a chauvinist the equivalent of literally being raped, do you realize how bad that sounds? :stare:
