Max out your pre-tax investments. 401k, HSA, 529, IRA, …
That’s why they spray water on fruit trees, to insulate them at 32F, right?
Used car salesmen are seen as swindlers who make superficial fixes to hide real issues.
Even Michael Jackson?
Sure, there’s not always an option, but sometimes there is. My tiny bit of $ isn’t going to make or break a company, but i try to give it to places who donate less to the big orange turd. I’m in a constant struggle choosing among home Depot, lowes, and Ace hardware.
Sitting in a rocking swivel patio chair while shaving the dog and I leaned forward to get his belly. The chair started to tip. I startled and i was able to stop it from tipping over, but then it felt like my back locked up and i couldn’t move. Husband helped me into the house and i missed several days of work. I did the exact same things three years in a row. I still have the chairs. Dog died and that’s likely the only reason it stopped after 3x.
I had a guy remodeling my bathroom who said it was wrong to own a cat because you make the cat stay in the house at night and it might want to be at the club instead.
My husband is an engineer. Screaming, “what the fuck are talking about?” is probably not the way.
People often think it’s tow, like towing something or helping to pull.
You want to know another one like that? Toe the line
Did you watch The Bear? I think we made beef sandwiches three weeks in a row while we were watching it.
I’m cold and that looks warm and delicious!
They’re all bad, but Firefox is terrible about this. Twice already in January I’ve had to make new passwords to pay bills. I was in my car when i did it and now i have no idea what those new passwords are. I’m so sick of letters, numbers, and special characters! No one is out there attempting to guess my gas company login password - they’re buying it from someone who hacked the gas company.
Probably the second (unless it’s something as common as trick or treat) as the implication may not hit me until later. You also have to judge the likelihood of follow thru- like when a kid get threatened with forever grounding.
I match your preferred timeline and wouldn’t change it. Happy that my childhood and young adult life is documented mostly by still photos with no backup.
Offered to take my adult kids to the beach -we will rent a pet-friendly house that’s big enough for everyone if you get your dog fixed before we go; we don’t want to be dealing with dog in heat at a beach house.
We booked the house. The dog did not get fixed. They came anyway but left a day early because…yep, the dog went into heat.
About an hour after they left, son called - “Wow! That immigration checkpoint was not as quick and easy as you described it!”
Apparently, standing on the side of the road with a pocketful of weed while your wife holds the dog and feds search your car can be unsettling.
“Sir, do you know why our dog alerted on your car?”
Chicken-egg; post-space…post.
