Yeah I know I’m fortunate and this is pretty much the only route to home ownership for me it’s just frustrating to think about what could have been and what’s waiting in the future.
- Comment on This app requires access to your contacts 3 days ago:
My parents had a house built a couple of years ago and it’s the same with them. It’s real hard for me to say “I told you so” like every time I go over there and see them fighting with some app bullshit on one of their appliances. It pisses me off so much because there was nothing wrong with their old house and now I’m going to be stuck inheriting the new one that’s worse in every way. Probably right around the time all the cut corners in the construction start coming out as the place falls apart.

Talk quietly. Adjust the mic settings as needed. You can check how you sound with the playback.

When I was young my parents took us on a vacation to Hawaii. My carry on had like 8 books in it and I finished half of them before we even got there.

- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 1 week ago:
The market determines the price. If no one can afford it the price is too high.
- Comment on Anon holds her bf 1 week ago:
It’s happened to me twice. Shit sucks. I guess you could say if they lose interest for crying in front of them they’re not good for you but I don’t exactly have women lining up to date me. If I’d known ahead of time I’d have kept my emotions to myself.
- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 1 week ago:
No. I hope he’s never found. I hope it destroys the careers of all the cops and politicians blowing shitloads of resources looking for him while they barely look at crimes against normal people. I hope all these insurance executives wake up in a cold sweat every night worrying that they’ll be next. That’s what’s best for the world.

Oh, I certainly wouldn’t cry about it. I’m just willing to settle for them living in fear.
- Comment on Torrent of Hate for Health Insurance Industry Follows C.E.O.’s Killing 2 weeks ago:
If these CEOs couldn’t walk down the street without some moron in an assassin creed costume showing up. I would be so happy. They don’t need to actually get harmed but they should live in a state of constant paranoia. It’s the least they deserve.
- Comment on Torrent of Hate for Health Insurance Industry Follows C.E.O.’s Killing 2 weeks ago:
That hatred has always been there. Media is just focusing on it because someone actually did something about it.
- Comment on Anon plays spin the bottle 2 weeks ago:
It felt so weird when I got to college and started working and people were just treating me like a normal person. It took a long time for me to stop defaulting to trying to figure out what kind of trick they were playing on me. I still don’t know wtf I did wrong as a child that made everyone decide I was to be ostracized.
- Comment on I live in the green part 2 weeks ago:
I eat fast food a lot and people have this perception about me but the reality is I only usually eat one meal a day so overall I’m not overeating. Admittedly it’s terrible nutritionally but my living arrangement limits my options.

Teeth might be dental infections. Those can get nasty if u treated.

I like it. Way cooler than “died from a fall” and more concise on top of it.

Probably a nice way of saying suicide.

She was right. They’re actually paying me to stare at my phone most of the time I’m supposed to be staring at the computer screen.

I sold a trailer to a cop once. It wasn’t related to his police activities but I needed to get rid of it and he didn’t haggle.
- Comment on Intruder 2 weeks ago:
I was responding to this. I didn’t see an earlier one.
Do you really think breaking and entering deserves a death sentence? I’m not condoning it by any means, but equally death seems like a disproportionate response, not to mention the long term effects this is bound to have on the child.
The person you responded to didn’t say they deserved it either. They said they didn’t care if the intruder gets killed because they got killed being an asshole. They’re not saying he had it coming. They’re saying he got what he got and they’re not going to give a shit about him because it was entirely avoidable by just not breaking into people’s homes. There’s literally 0 reason to feel bad for him.
- Comment on Intruder 2 weeks ago:
Are burglars usually murderers? Don’t they usually care about stealing stuff to make some form of profit out of that?
Sometimes they are. Sometimes they’re rapists. There are some sick motherfuckers in this world. When I was a kid a woman just down the street was raped in front of her kids by three home invaders. You can’t know the intention of the person breaking into your home. The safest bet for yourself is to assume the worst. There’s no way to know their intentions until they act and by then it may be too late. Especially if you’re not trained in “the mildest means possible” or are smaller and weaker than the intruder. You don’t owe these people anything. They put you in this situation. If they invent a gun with a stun setting like in Star Wars by all means use that. Until then lethal force is the most expedient way to disable an attacker. You don’t execute them if it renders them no longer a threat but if they die that outcome is acceptable.
- Comment on Intruder 2 weeks ago:
I didn’t say they deserved death. I said you shouldn’t be worrying about the outcome (which is a decent probability of their death) while defending yourself. No one should be expected to hold back when their own safety is on the line. They didn’t put themselves in that situation. It’s entirely on the offender. If you manage to restrain/run them off without killing them, great but don’t risk your own life to do so.
