    Haha. I think I had just driven 5 hours from my in-laws house and had to sit through freaking Waco construction which they've been working on there on 35 since I was about 5 years old. That drive through that part of Texas does blow and there's no reason why my in-laws just have to live there.

    But yeah... at least I don't live in Alabama or Mississippi.

    There's great Italian food in both states, because you know the Italians in CA and NYC knew that Florida and Texas gave them offers they can't refuse.

    Sorry Bernie Sanders
    Nobody is dumb enough to drop 13% of their taxes to support no police and enable homeless shoplifters
    If people wanted cheap abortions they’d move to Mexico

    I have a contract on a house with someone from Washington and I feel like I'm part of the problem now, but they are offering so much.... I'm conflicted, even took down a gun fridge sticker someone left in fear they won't close...

    A shame they don't stay and fix their **** state. They bring up the cost of living for everyone. But at least they sound decent.

    these Cali dudes moved to upstate NY

    They Traded Southern California for Upstate New York (and a Barn)
    When Los Angeles no longer felt right to a hairstylist and his partner, they knew they were ready for a big change. It came with a Hudson River view.

    I just saw this.

    It would be appropriate if you posted pictures of good looking woman.
