Here’s the gas situation in Denton, TX (a town of 113,000 people with two large universities) right now (4:50pm central time, 9/1/17) from GasBuddy. Prices are ranging from $2.39 at many to $2.69 at some. It was around $2.10 last week.

The annoying part about all this is that there wasn’t a gas shortage, a rumor went out and caused a panic. That’s how all this happened in Texas at least, we done goofed.

My mom lost her house. She lost her car. She has the clothes on her back and pretty much nothing else. And she tends to vote Republican.

This narrative needs to stop. It’s all over Jezebel and it’s disgusting. I get it, Texas is republican, and republicans are horrible people.

Even if that is true? NOT OKAY TO SAY TO CHILDREN. For all I care, this student could have set off 12 stink bombs in the teacher’s lounge, still NOT OKAY.

Okay, but that still doesn’t justify teachers telling kids that they are likely to be terrorists, homeless, or crybabies. It’s fucking cruel, even if the children being singled out are troubled.

What I’ve figured out is that good teachers don’t shit-talk their students, period.

I don’t care about the context, this is inappropriate and unacceptable. You want to joke about this kind of shit in teh teacher’s lounge that’s one thing. Taking time to make up a certificate, sign it, and present it is quite another.

Yeah, but I bet the Duke job pays time-and-a-half for overtime.

I actually enjoy 3D movies much more at home than at the theater. For whatever reason, the quality is much better. We got a TV that has passive 3D (uses the same glasses as the theater), but I doubt I’ll get another 3D television again. My wife loves it, I could do without.

I feel like there should be a “guns for Miter saws” trade in going on. More people should focus on creating rather than destroying.

The IRS won’t let you deduct rent for your personal residence. However, rental expenses for your business as well as expenses related to rental property that you own are deductible.

You can’t deduct a percentage of your rent for property tax. You have to own the property. See https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899…. The property owner deducts the property tax as a business expense.

And watery tarts lobbing swords.

I hope what really happened to Shelly Miscavige eventually does come out. I have feeling it wasn’t because someone forgot to find her during hide and seek. If she is still alive it seems like the church would have done something public to prove she was ok. Or maybe not, these people are just crazy.

I worked at Borders too, but managed to spend little time in the kids’ section. (I pulled rank, since I had young kids at home.) Still, I’d have paid good money to watch that woman get tossed into the cop car. We had way too many of those types in our store, and we were a freestanding location with just a KMart next…

The Borders near me had to remove all of their really comfy armchairs because people were parking (not their kids but) their elderly parents there for hours as they ran errands or whatever. Many of these old souls were incontenent. They would sit there in a stupor for hours until someone would come to pick them up and…

Of course the Propserity Gospel types are terrible customers. More proof that there ain’t a god in heaven responsible for this shitshow down below.
