I really wish they had decided on a different term than white privilege. I feel the term causes counterproductive resentment and divide. And yes, I understand the term, I understand the definition of privilege, I understand I have been fortunate as a white male to go through life not harassed, not discriminated…

God damn. This lady (and plenty others) really give us decent white folk a bad name. Can I just ask you to not group us all in one big white pot? Cause, you know, that’s not cool.
I can confirm the paper pushing part of a government contract. Mind-numbing amount of paperwork.
I can tell you that the hours and hours allotted to project manage a government contract will bump the price up quite a bit. The sheer volume of paperwork required is insane. Someone has to do it, that person has a salary, hours get quoted/charged to the job to do all that. And that’s just for paperwork.
I’ve been trying to be more involved in the conversation, and this has me thoroughly confused. Is this being used as an example of police brutality? Isn’t the guy a private security guard at a private business? I’m not saying that just because someone isn’t a cop means they should get a pass on mistreating someone.…
I know this won’t go over well, but fuck it: I could be wrong, but it seems like many people, at least up here in Western New York/Southern Tier, associate this flag with positive Southern values (hard work, agriculture, country living, family values, etc.) and not necessarily the obvious negatives of it as the battle…
Ugh, that era, and even into the early 2000's, was brutal. Our first house was built in 1988 and we redid every room except the kitchen before we moved. New house was built in 2004 and good god. Plus the previous owners had some semi-Tuscan theme going on. It’s been 2+ years and we’re around 1/3 done with making it…
After baby stage is walking toddler stage....that’s when it gets real crazy.
Looks like an upcoming depression to me.
Oh man...having a kid and moving/house projects take up approximately 99.7% of free time. That other .3% is when I try to find time to use the bathroom.
I bolted a hitch receiver on to my truck. Does that count?
Haha I bet you hire people to do most things for you. Where do you keep stuff like saw horses, hand tools, power tools, bicycles, car wash supplies (is there even a hose in there?), ladders, kayaks, coolers, lumber, garage fridge, broom, stroller, diaper garbage, can/bottle return can, work boots, muck boots, etc.?
I suppose it’s not surprising that everything is so white/beigey.
4th Gear: A Ram 1500 Classic Warlock quad cab leases for around $230/mo with $0 down. That’s why there are so many on the roads.
I can get our Forester and Ram 1500 in the garage, but only because one side has extra depth. I measured and wouldn't have gotten the Ram if it wouldn't have fit.
Next time someone asks what car they should buy to get the family around but still be fun, anyone who doesn't recommend this should be fired.
This should sound crazy and far-fetched, but it doesn’t. It sounds way too close to possible or even likely.
Nope.
I’m thinking the wax coating, like Home Simpson tried in the Chili Cookoff. Ghost peppers range from about 850,000-1,000,000+; that’s some serious heat. You’re a fucking all-star. I’m impressed.
