Even if you’re “making bank” you’re still getting absolutely fucked by student loan payments. I’ve paid $30k on them in 3 years and my balance went UP by $500. When it’s all said and done, I’ll have paid back more than double my student loan AND get taxed on another $200k that’s been “forgiven.” Hard to buy a…

You may not be able to get majority support for cancelling student debt. But what if you took another tact, say reducing student loan interest rates to 0% and making your entire loan payment tax deductible? If you borrow $50k, you only pay back $50k. For those with active loans, you make it retroactive- all interest…

What prompted me to switch to an iPhone after being a die-hard El Goog fanboy (starting with the G1!) was the apps. They all looked more polished, launched quicker and the entire interface was slicker. No lag, crashing, or hang ups. Coupled with Google finally playing nice with iPhone, I switched. Even if the iPhone w…

There were many “never Trump”ers in GOP leadership who eventually backed away from that position quietly, mostly because Trump may be the most (accidentally, evilly, petulantly) successful president in achieving GOP goals. But none of them did the switch from publicly denouncing Trump to being his biggest cheerleader…

Dems are Charlie Brown trying to kick the football, or for a more recent reference, Rhaegar Targaryen: “Rhaegar fought valiantly, Rhaegar fought nobly, Rhaegar fought honorably. And Rhaegar died.” You don’t have to resort to dirty tricks, but when the other side isn’t operating in good faith and just trying to…

Was he claiming that he set a new record? Then no lie. Was he claiming he won the election? Then yes

Disinformation is a lie. A lie is:

It’s like watching the Borat sequel. In the original (which took place in the Bush years) the crazy insane racist ass-backwards shit was disturbing and embarrassing. But now? Absolutely nothing shocking, which is even sadder

You have an interesting take on relationships.

That’s the rub. If you’ve done well for yourself and advanced, you want to give your children every possible advantage so that they can do even better. The best schools, tutors, connections, money can acquire, a taste for fine things so they want to do well to be able to afford even better. You go on nice vacations…

Hey man, to each their own. Wasn’t trying to attack anyone’s personal preferences, nor do I want to be one of those douches who says “well if you have nothing to hide...” In my own experience, which may be applicable to others or not, I’ve utilized an open device policy with my S/O’s because I’ve found it heads off…

Halo isn’t COD, and it shouldn’t try to be (not that there’s anything wrong with COD). Halo was supposed to be an arena shooter. Regardless of objective, you also have to balance controlling the map chokepoints and the power weapon spawns, with everyone spawning with the same gear. Ambush or not, you leap, grenade,…

Often, cheaters are the most paranoid and untrusting partners. Probably because they know how easy it is to get caught. Like a crime scene, you can accidentally leave a ton of incriminating evidence behind.

Why do you dislike someone utilizing your phone/computer? Concerned about someone messing with data/settings, seeing confidential work information, or coming across something you want to keep concealed from your partner (akin to a journal with your innermost private thoughts?) My S/O and I frequently use the other’s…

Because at the end of a long day you want to deal with not being able to get in your car because of a dead phone?

Boundaries, definitions, and disclosures.

Buy an E90 M3 that’s already had the rod bearings and throttle actuators replaced.

How you lose weight:

Wish John Oliver would. It’s awkward laughing by yourself without live studio audience, that extra silence is just weird.

More simplistically, the primary source of relationship strife (besides money issues) is unstated expectations. Dealing with it involves growth and maturity. You’re supposed to be a team. You don’t get to storm out of the room and have your S/O chase after you and know what’s really bothering you (male or female). Nor…
