It's flavored vodka, just mix it. Not like it's made from Russia's finest potato.

Hey cool. My car battery shows 'green' but won't crank out a start and makes everything flash like its possessed. Oh and it has a bunch of loving corrosion and the car is less than 2 years old

Bi-carb and water.

It was a real bitch to get the positive terminal off the corrosion was really drat bad. Getting terminal grease today and looks like I'll have to be putting more on every 6 months or whatever.

My sister in law who can't even take care of a cat and has to have her cable bill paid for by her mother wants to adopt a meth addict's baby because this is what will complete her life.

Was the mother addicted to meth while pregnant? Sis-in-law better get the crackdrug babby robot for the best possible experience.

Don't the robots also have accelerometers or some poo poo to record baby shaking?

I always wondered how those single cruises get enough girls to not be a sausage fest. Do they get some kind of shady special discount so it's not discrimination

Actually, maybe somebody here can answer this for me. Probably makes me sound like an rear end in a top hat.

I'm in Virginia. My parents in Georgia have custody of my older brother's three kids until the kids are 18, because my brother and his methwhore of a girlfriend got picked up by the cops enough times with clearly neglected kids that the state gave custody to my folks. My dad's close to 70, my mom's a few years younger. They're in okay health, but raising a 9/6/4 year old simultaneously on SS/enlisted retiree pay and whatever public assistance Georgia deigns to offer is probably going to take its toll. I haven't spoken to the brother in about four years, and I rarely talk to my parents because A: the kid situation depresses me, B: my brother still gets unconditional support from them despite putting them into this situation and refusing to get his poo poo together, and C: I'm tired of hearing them whine about politics and urge me to stay in the military until retirement.

If something were to happen to one or both of my parents, is there any chance that I'd be given custody of the kids?

joat mon posted:

I wasn't sure which way you were asking the question.

You will never be legally obligated to care for those kids in any way without your consent. No ifs, ands or buts.

With your consent, there could be some difficulties if the other grandparents wanted the kids.

redneck nazgul posted:

Yeah, I should have been clearer with that originally. I blame being sick and hopped up on cough syrup.

Thanks for assuring me and the wife that nothing will happen without our consent.

It'd either be out in the yard or (worst case) under the street in front, since the offset is located at 107 ft along the run. I have no clue if this is a serious potential problem or if the inspector is just being cautious. Here's what he said: "Offset noted in main sewer line at a joint in the pipe at 107 feet. The offset appears to be over 1 inch. This can allow solids or debris to collect in the pipe causing blockage. This can also allow water to seep into the soil causing further settlement."

Buca di Bepis posted:

Apparently you can have private sewer line going under the city street. The city is only on the hook for the city line.

I do have a YouTube video of the sewer scope that I linked to in my quote requests. I'd hoped that the plumbers would look at it to give me a quote instead of just telling me to pay for another scope to show them the same poo poo.

The most my sister ever had was 2, wild ones that she caught. One was too wild and ran away, the other was pretty tame. After that she only had one bunny at a time. I miss having a bunny in the house

Also no my sister isn't crazy.

I'm almost a homeowner and man it feels weird. I posted before about the sewer offset issue I found - the initial estimate for the repair was $1800, but when the contractor went back to see exactly where the issue was and saw that it was under the sidewalk they increased it to $5000. The seller's covering everything before closing and I absolutely would've walked if they hadn't agreed to that.

Get the sewer scope. $125 up front can save you a lot of money.

Got a cousin that blew up a hotel room making meth. He was blown out the second floor window in only his underwear. Just one of the many charges that got him a long prison stint.

He also blew up a car by leaving his meth rig in the car on a hot day with a bunch of those soda bottle rigs in the trunk. Made a grand fireball out my grandparents Grand Marquis. I dunno, times was tough. I blame that sumbitch Dubya in the White House.

With the advent of a new meme, the FedEx guy, it got me to realize something: I don't think I'd really care of I saw idiots burning or stomping on a US flag. It would make me think less of them, but I wouldn't charge in there and tackle them or deploy a fire extinguisher. What about you other dads?
