what if it’s a spouse determined to walk you, minute by minute through their typically terrible workday?

OK, so saying “I’m not allowed to discuss that due to pending criminal litigation” is not a good tactic?

Me?

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. A gajillion times yes.

Fighting this fight daily. I have a ‘too-smart-for-their-age’ 10 year old that is highly opinionated and is developing some strong talk-back skills. Any request by us takes several repeats with the volume going higher each time. Threats of removing privileges/access happen all too frequently. I completely understand…

This is even weirder for me. I had a friend once do the 5 for $5 deal at Arby’s. Nobody wants to eat 5 roast beef sandwiches. They stop by Barnes and Noble later, and this dude smushed up a sandwich in the biggest book they could find, and then wedged it back into the shelf.

Or wait & earn millions of dollars exploiting bugs in Facebook’s Libra crypto currency.

I think the bug IS the cryptocurrency. You guys have fun with that.

My grandmother was definitely invited to my wedding 4 years ago and her check was welcomed. Feel free to endorse all your future gift checks to me. I’m happy to take them off your hands.

Each bank is slightly different. Ours required us both to be there with our IDs to sign in front of them for the checks that said “and” since we didn’t have a joint account yet. A lot less convenient than just sending one person to deposit them.

As another person who grew up (and still lives) in small town Tennessee: you can call it a simplistic reduction, but it’s fucking true. I can’t think of a single gun owner that I know (and I know a shit ton) who would even consider this for a fraction of a second.
