    She is a city person and we live in the suburbs. It's a perfect personality match, but not a good fit geographically. There are plenty of negatives to go along with the positives. Just having a young adult under your roof brings some drama. She crashed our car, she borrows things without asking, she is self centered and oblivious... But these are all things we expected and anticipated. She brings life and happiness into our home. Is a much needed extra hand. Cares about our girls unconditionally and respects and reinforces our parenting choices... Makes me feel more complete just by having her in our home and a part of our lives. A much needed component to our functioning household. She reads my mind and reminds me that she can do things for me, so I can do what I need for work.

    Seems your bad day is better than my good ones.

    Molly gets out about once a year. She doesn't really want out, she just wants to prove how smart she is (a Newf operating a child-proof latch IS impressive). Once out, she walks around to the front door and waits for us to figure things out.

    I fucking hate people that don't listen.

    I built a torqshift for a friend of mine ( transmission for a 2008 f250) gave him a 5 galloon bucket of fluid and told him that it would take most of it, then he calls today and says its not acting right. my first question how much fluid did you put in it? his reply, about 12 quarts.. A FUCKING 5 GALLOON BUCKET IS 20 QUARTS not 12

    Since moving to a three month cycle, I think my Uterus is trying to kill me. For reals, now.

    Family dinners.

    SIL: (after hearing cousin and I compare art history lectures) The more I hear about (my alma mater), the more I doubt its rigor.

    I didn't say anything, but I almost retorted: Really? You were the one who admitted you hardly did any reading through your English degree and didn't take marginal notes, or indeed notes of any kind, until law school, so wtf?

    Then, this gem, courtesy of my mother in law:
    I said, I'm looking forward to cooking all the things I don't have time to cook over spring break, and she said, shouldn't you be looking forward to all the exercise you're going to do.

    She's so lucky I didn't go full out on her ass. Only half.

  8. Ooooooh. You chose Comic Sans as your font for resume. Nope. No interview for you.

    Related to the other thread:

    How hard is it to pass along the correct phone number? Calling my wife with instructions will lead to phone tag because she rarely has time to take calls and return calls.

    You just added an extra day to the process.

    I'm updating mine. I use Georgia. I don't care what people say. It's NOT Comic Sans. It's classy.
    Funny how the resume service that came for free with my job search posting slaughtered my CV for being too long and the autosearch functions thinks I'm an RN. They now won't leave me alone.

    Stop inviting me to things 4-5 hours before they start, and then getting irritated/angry when I don't come. :mad:

    Hear, fucking hear.
    Or, " You guys wanna come to ______?" "sure, when are you going?"
    "we're on the way now."
    That's bullshit. We recently informed that couple that we'd rather not get the invite, than be texted when they're already en route somewhere it would take us at least an hour to get to.

  15. Wanna help me move tomorrow? That's more than a 4-5 hour window. It's like 24 hours.

    I occasionally see t-shirts with the following message printed on them (keep in mind I live in Tehk-suss :D):

    Yes, I own a pick-up truck.

    No, I will not help you move.

    Only $1663.20 for a round-trip ticket!








    ...:(
     
  18. That is STUPID. I think that's how much we paid to go to Japan. Granted, we got the tickets a little sooner than 24 hours before the trip.
