I don't know man everytime I go to the gym here there are like two huge dudes with raging high and tights snorting Nitro-tech off of each other's rock hard abs.

Was right in the middle of changing a customers headlight when some shitbird in a bro truck pulled in next to him and let rip with his train horn. loving summary execution should be legal for people like that. Just yank them out of the truck, put them on their knees and dispense .45 justice to the back of his head.

Couldn't that one be considered assault if it's an aftermarket horn? I'm all for safety and whatever, but permanent hearing damage is not worth stroking the ego of someone in a giant overcompensation machine

I took my girlfriend to a gas station to refill her flat tire and half way through filling she pressed the flashing button that switched on the vacuum and disabled the air compressor

She didn't think that spending another dollar to finish filling it was nearly as funny as I did

At least in America, talking about finances is rather taboo, but most people aren't nearly as financially stable as they seem

My coworker is married and they have 1 daughter and she is 7 months pregnant with a second daughter. They own a house, 2 cars, and are trying to save up and buy a new SUV. To the world, the look like they're doing great, I was super jealous of her success
Friday night, she was complaining to me that she was having trouble making bills this month and had to work 10 days in a row to make her mortgage payment and she was feeling random contractions due to the stress. Her husband has been off work for a month because the remodelling company he works for has no clients and has no work to be done. Neither of them have degrees or even real insurance, and she is planning on taking 4 months off of work for the birth to take care of the kids

Even my parents, who are the head of the local teacher's union and the care coordinator for a hospice system have their own financial woes. Especially since my dad might lose his pension and my mom has only $12k in her 401k at 52 because they were relying on his great benefits for retirement. My dad drives a 85 (I think) 944 with 220k miles on it that has a bad rear diff, and my mom drives a 05 Outback with 145k and a failing transmission. They're looking at selling the house or putting in nearly $25k in repairs to the plumbing and leaking foundation after the massive flooding destroyed the basement



Looking at the grand scheme of things, I'm happy to have only $4k in credit card debt at 24. And sure, I might be temporarily back in my parents' house and out of my degree program, but I'm getting better and going to move back out soon. I'm not on top of the world, but I'm not underwater either

Do most people have savings real savings accounts? Because that feels like most people view savings as "other checking"

I just reinstated my gym membership, so maybe paying $50 a month will guilt me back into exercising

Contractors have been in a lovely situation lately. A family friend had to sell his remodeling business after 20 years because he got too few real jobs in the last two years to be able to even cover the cost of his warehouse, let alone his staff



I'm bartending a wedding tomorrow night, but I just found out that the bride and groom can't afford to actually pay me. It's worked out that I get to keep all of the leftover booze and any tips I get. I'd like legal tender, but I can always take more alcohol, I guess

Yeah, I agreed to do it for my sister-in-law's cousin as a favor and never talked to anyone in the wedding personally, but it was implied that I'd be paid. I can't complain too much, it should be fun either way
