It's OK, dude. Those people are shitheads and the insurance guy is, well, doing what insurance guys have to do. Sucks about the dog, but that's not your fault.

Yeah, I'm still pissed beyond belief about it though. I know they were ticketed for negligence thanks to the insurance guy. I'd really like to see them hit with the maximum penalty in terms of fines, as well as a donation to a local shelter for supplies (LEASHES) and whatever else. I don't want their money, though now that I know they have homeowner's insurance that covers it, the little money demon wants to dance and punish them with increased insurance premiums and a quick payout (the negligence laws are loving tight here) and donate most of it to a handful of shelters.

I loving hate that money demon though, so this joint is to push out some of the desire to sue like a huge dick when my injuries were so minor, it may have set me back $10 at Walgreens. Trying not to be a greedy rear end in a top hat because I was raised better than that.

They better be drat glad I haven't pushed that button already. I know way too many people that would have had an attorney on hold while they wait at the ER.

Shouldn't you have referred his insurance agency to your insurance agency?

Probably. If I had anything worth insuring besides my car. I moved here with what fit in my car with a dog and two cats and no job prospects, do you really think I live in a place or own anything worth insuring?

Still doesn't eliminate their liability.

I consider that part of the photo. It's like collage or something. $10 at Fred Myers.

I got more wall space dedicated to my minor league baseball hat collection in my bedroom so I think it's in acceptable boundaries.

I'm really loving surprised I still keep some of my old army poo poo. At the badgering of my mother, I kept my class As suit. I have a set of unfuckered with DCUs that I last wore in Iraq. Still have my duffel, it's just useful. Same for the footlocker. And laundry bag. And my ninja suit thermals (I use those every winter and only this year one finally got a run). And a pair of steel toe suede boots. And all sorts of other miscellaneous poo poo because it's durable and still somewhat useful. Ammo can, cot, that LAW I turned into a bong.

I'm not a packrat by any means, but some of that poo poo is just so loving durable that it's hard to throw it away if it's still useful.

I have nothing on display though. No shadow boxes or pictures. Just off-white walls and ugly cabinets.

If it makes you happy to look at it, keep it up. Being embarrassed to have reminders of your military time is an over reaction to not being a moto douche after getting out. Find a happy medium and live in it. I still wear my green hoodies and my old navy working jacket every now and again.

I've kept my aircraft pubs and flight gear. My pubs bag is untouched from my last flight. There's still data on the performance card and a oily pair of nomex gloves stuffed into a pocket.

I've kept all of my patches too. Those are cool. Then there's the EVA map from SERE that I hung onto.

I actually use my aircrew aids at work. Mostly for eyeballing transit and loiter times and for the pages of contact info for a poo poo ton of squadrons across the country. And a bunch of my patches are on the wall over my desk.

That's cool man. My 965th AACS flying scarf hangs on a doorknob in my room. I never got a 962nd AACS one.

And my leather jacket? No idea where that went.

I posted that law bong years ago after I made it. There's a few pictures of it floating around, or were before they probably fell off from disuse. There's a stencil of Bob Ross on it and a tree in the front sight.

Downstem snapped off in there and I haven't replaced it yet. Once that's fixed it will need a good cleaning. It's ugly, but it works when assembled.
