That wasn’t my point, nor the over arching point. If you are BEHIND in your debt you should not be taking on more debt. That’s not part of the current equation. MY car comment was about your shoe comment, just because you can find something at a low price, does not mean it is the answer.

...best rated tennis shoes are $100 to $120? HAHAHAHAHA Source Please...I have to see that. Is that some customer review were the volume of people at that price range simply ways heavier? Or is this an actual shoe review site? For basketball, good luck getting basic team brand shoes for less than $140 *base value,…

First off, as someone always dealing with guilt, so long as you’ve at a minimum taken care of what you are supposed to do, then you shouldn’t feel guilty. You even mention already going above what is “required”, there shouldn’t be any “guilt”. why? Because 1000% there is ALWAYS something better that can be done, and…

ugh...no. Depends on the type of shoes entirely. It depends on purpose of shoes as well. If I drop 60 on a pair of tennis shoes, they aren’t built to last, I’ll get one “season” of wear out of them at the most. Let me re-word that, the VALUE of the shoes is 60...shoes can be very volatile pricing wise. I’m a big guy,…

No, its not gender based, its interest based. I’ll buy a pair of shoes myself on a bad day or a piece of music equipment, or splurge on a video game to jump start my mood, but that’s because its my interest/poison. If my interest was alcohol, then I’d buy a bottle of something mildly expensive. I have friends who will…

...I have NEVER EVER thought of putting an egg on an omelette, and dammit Kate, I will this weekend HAHAHA.

...I’m sort of pulling back in an almost disgusted way, but not entirely. Multiple small patties can be better than a singular big patty. do I TRUST someone to make a thin patty - typically not. If I am grilling, I prefer thicker patties, I HATE when my wife wants turkey burgers as thin patties DO dry out simply…

*Zing* EDIT - HxH should be added to that list.

Ironically I g0t over myself a long time ago. I’m a fan of “super-lyrical-miracle”, if I was a teenager I’d have a Slaughterhouse poster on my wall. In my studio, I have vinyl records of Chino XL, Xzibit, Common, Ras Kass, and *soon* Big Pun - adorned on the wall. I was one of those kids trying to put people onto…

No, I’m NOT missing those, that’s exactly what I’m getting at, they aren’t *typically* raised to aspire for those positions. No question its systemic, but that’s flow I’m concerned with. I want my daughter to pursue whatever career she is naturally interested in, not what she is pointed to (and I feel the same about…

I would love equal paternity options, but that’s a WHOLE nother bag of worm, I’ve been fortunate that I’ve been cut slack when needed - rules were bent for me, but the rules SUCK in that regard at the places I’ve been.

As a black guy, I typically saw the same thing growing up racially. There is something to be said for support and surroundings. There is a reason for HBCUs...minorities need to see people like them succeed, and see them around them, and be able to interact with them. I’m not a woman and can only steer my view based on…

...sigh...while trying to be respectful about being disrespectful, you’re being ignorant in your own definition. Rap- ESPECIALLY modern rap has ALL of those things, in fact that’s part of the divide between modern rap and what I grew up with in the 90s.

I only got to skim through so far, but this didn’t even touch on “Sell X number of tickets” for said promoter. You want to perform, bring 100 people FIRST.

As the “guy” who does a lot of the dirty work, it ISN’T just a women issue. No ‘one’ should be raising their hand consistently - it should fall on the manager to try and dole out those task in some capacity (as mentioned).

So, the Raptors fire the coach who didn’t get along great with the player, then flip the player...

Well, this should be a fun experiment to see how much of the day I waste away on THIS website hahaha

So, I’ve never truly understood this idea...the most time consuming part of making pancakes is mixing them, if the cook time is too much, just make them smaller. For those recipes you are STILL mixing them...so what are you really saving? To me it just sounds more like experimenting - I bet you could do great variants…

I give CP3 ONE more year in Houston, then he’ll be traded out next year while he still retains some value. Maybe two years.

Hand-Check Harold was not pleased...
