Wanted to go to a trade school for welding when I was a teenager. Mother said no, because “you’re going to college”

I kept asking for help figuring out college stuff, mother kept saying “I’ll help you tomorrow/next week when I have time” (she was technically a substitute teacher but usually worked 1 day/wk)

Graduation came and went and I had no money saved up, no colleges looked at beyond what my limited googling skills could come up with, and absolutely no help from my parents with anything.

Good news though, since my parents collectively made enough money, I didn’t qualify for financial aid of any kind! Did I say good news? I meant bad.

And of course my parents lived paycheck to paycheck and we got EBT or medicaid for most of my childhood.

Now instead of an education or a trade that’s in demand, I have depression and a shitty 15/hr job that is destroying my joints.

Ain’t life grand?

If he ever gloats about having a degree, I’ve had success with tossing back “in order for me to feel insulted, I would have to value your opinion”

Its made two relatives block me and my mother in law call several relatives to cry and moan about how evil and manipulative I am because when she responded with multiple gigantic run-on paragraph/sentences in a row, I hit her with “lol. I ain’t gonna read all that”

People who take pleasure in how much better they believe their lives or decisions are typically can’t stand it when someone else doesn’t fucking care

Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was “Oh no, not again.”

Why would he do anything to negatively impact his handler’s master? (I assume Put in doesn’t handle trump himself…)

Yes, sit diwn and let them execute you like an obedient slave. I’m sure asking nicely will help.

Isn’t it Ionic?

It makes perfect sense when viewed from “the credit companies work with lenders to ensure your credit only rises if you’re constantly in more and more debt but still paying it like an obedient little wage slave”

I would agree if it weren’t painfully obvious the Russian elections that brought put in in weren’t heavily influenced by putin-run domestic terrorism and election fraud.

Wait, actually, it still is a good comparison.

Carry on.

Personally I’m a huge fan of bouncing a ball off a couple of sticks, but you like what you like, eh?

Honey is acidic with a pH of around 4, so it technically corrodes metal if left for prolonged contact.

I make knives and I really want to let one sit in honey for a week to see if it gives it an acid wash.

I have other acids that work much quicker, but I’m having a bit of a giggle at making a pattern-welded steel butter knife and calling it my “Honey Knife”

Because we have knives already in our kitchens, and they don’t take up extra space in a drawer that would otherwise go to another more useful utensil.

Also my cheese slicers have all been cheap as shit and snap after a few months, and the nice heavy duty one I had with a replaceable wire got lost in the move earlier this year and they discontinued it and I’m sad.

Well, you’re certainly correct in your assessment of the pun’s quality.

I’m not a fan of slant rhyme even when it’s close, so it’s even less effective on me I guess.

Thank you for the explanation, it now makes sense.

… Genuine question: what was the pun?

I have been considered an honorary dad due to my DadHumor, and I can’t find one.

So theft and extortion. I remember when those were crimes.

There’s at least cause for a citizens arrest at that point

Yes, but…

gives a reasonable person fear of imminent bodily harm or death

Driver could shoot the HSI douche in the head and I’d say self defense isn’t murder.

You hop in my car like that, you’re gonna have a bad day.

And even when they ARE “punished”, their profits far exceed the fine, which IS their only punishment.

If the punishment for a crime is just a fine, it’s only a crime for the poor.

Well, as long as you do it while driving a car, anyway.

… Kick them over like dominoes.

Why would you give water to a country that has threatened to invade you in recent months?
