    You and I share the same marital hurdle. It sucks.

    The world is full o' complainers. An' the fact is, nothin' comes with a guarantee. Now I don't care if you're the Pope of Rome, President of the United States or Man of the Year; somethin' can all go wrong. Now go on ahead, y'know, complain, tell your problems to your neighbor, ask for help, 'n watch him fly. Now, in Russia, they got it mapped out so that everyone pulls for everyone else... that's the theory, anyway. But what I know about is Texas, an' down here... you're on your own. -- Blood Simple

    To be fair, my wife is really on point most of the time, and has gotten much better about sudden, unexpected changes in trajectory. Which is good, because she's married to me.

    Speaking of marital support and ability to pivot during crisis. I hope she supports your decision when it becomes justified to get a helicopter.

    Nothing says pivot, like having a fly bird ready to get out of a crisis.

    Neck tattoos annoy me.
    Just why.
    I have a couple of tattoos from my military days so I'm not anti tattoo
    But having one on your neck is quite the statement

    It’s rebellion. Anything that a long sleeve shirt can cover is commonplace now.

    Don’t forget face and hand tattoos.

    Not for me. I would consider it once my great grandkids were all covered by trusts, but that’s at least close to billionaire money and I don’t believe in hoarding wealth. But if I did, I would love to roll into the Yacht club as the richest mother****er there by an order of magnitude with a neck tattoo with a set of lips and text that said ‘your mom says hi’.

    I know, I feel bad even mentioning it but didn't feel like driving to the location I usually go to in SW Louisiana.

    My GF is covered from shoulders to feet, nothing on the face or hands and its very sexy to me...............I have ZERO tats, simply because I could never articulate anything that I would want to see when I was like 75 and all wrinkly. I remember the first time I saw Mike Tyson have a face tattoo and it weirded my out and now look at a guy like Post Malone .......IMO that dude took it a tad to far but who am I to judge, if you like it that's all that matters

    These days it more rebellious to not have any tattoos.

    I work in Senior Dining.
    I can hardly wait to see what all those faded arse tattoos look like once they end up at the nursing home.
    Can you imagine seeing your 70-year-old grandma sitting at the table with that old tramp stamp.
    It's a sobering thought.

    By that point it's probably sagged all the way down in to the abyss.

    It just took me 30 minutes to pay a $75 doctor bill online.
    1. Manually type in extra-long complicated web address listed on the paper bill I got in the mail
    2. Create new account with my email and a super-complicated password (16 digits, uppercase, lowercase, number, symbol)
    3. Arrive at page that says the email address is already in use
    4. Click 'forgot my password' and wait 10 minutes for an email that never arrives
    5. Create new account with different email address and a super-complicated password
    6. Wait for confirmation email
    7. Click link in confirmation email which takes you to login page
    8. Log in with new email and password
    9. Wait for a confirmation text message with a 6-digit code
    10. Type in 6-digit code
    11. Click on 'pay my bill'
    12. New window opens for a 3rd party payment website
    13. Create new account for 3rd party website with my email and a super-complicated password
    14. Wait for confirmation email
    15. Click link in confirmation email which takes you to login page
    16. Log in with email and password
    17. Type in super long and complicated account number listed on my paper bill
    18. Type in debit card number (finally getting somewhere!)
    19. Agree to terms and conditions
    20. See that there is a $6.95 charge to pay by credit/debit card
    21. Click back to payment page and search for my checkbook which I use once a year
    22. Input all check information
    23. Agree to terms and conditions
    24. PRESS SUBMIT
    Why do some companies make it so hard to GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY?

    Writing a check and sticking it in the mail, like my grandmother used to do, would have taken you about 5 minutes.
