When the Patriarch of our family died in December of 1979, our family devolved into drugs and murder. The land was sold off & people went to prison, two for life in Georgia.
I was offered the Raleigh Penitentiary or the Marine Corps, guess which one I took.

Your analogy of "migrant workers" & American citizens having multiple generations in the same house; I been in both many times. The difference, migrant workers aren't sitting around the dinner table complaining about not being bank tellers or convenience store employees.

"But I would also say that it's really hard to pull yourself by the bootstraps when there is a foot on your chest and no bootstraps to grasp."

My advice for this comment; Trade your Nike's in for a pair of boots , then kick the Sh*t outta the person who has their foot on your chest.

Finally stop making excuses for a crap load of individuals who have settled for less than what they can be.

Look, I didn't mean to rustle your jimmies so bad, fella. You have your opinion and I have mine I guess.
When you have to resort to sarcasm in an argument you can be pretty well assured you have nothing left to offer. So I'll just leave it at this... I'm not going to engage in an argument with someone that doesn't see the irony in posting their pet peeve as "wining" or whining on a thread explicitly dedicated to listing pet peeves... Beginning to see that it isn't a lack of, or an abundance of perception you have compared to me that's leading to our disagreement. Instead, it's that one thing you can't fix, as my father would say.

The exchange between you and I is a real simple one; you tossed crap on the table and I called you on it.

That's the way my generation deals with issues. Nothing personal, strictly business.

My pet peeve of the last 10 days




So done with watching the trees simply burn, and having to breathe it in

On the bright side the Sunrises and Sunsets sure are pretty

At 47yrs old, we must be from a different generation. 'Cause my generation, or at least from where I come from, we usually hunt them down, stalk them, capture and torture (psychologically or physically, depending on the mind set of the victim...echem, for at least 1 week, before we leave them stranded in the woods, naked-cold and hungry.

But I digress....

Yeah, but I can't stalk very far though, cause my legs are short & I'm overweight.

Ahhhhhh, The ole 'short leg stalker syndrome!' At 6'4", I have only heard of it.

Yes, but think of all the weight you could lose with all that stalking and time in the woods.

Now that's thinking,,,,,,,,,,

When someone is doing something wrong & it's actually against the law so when you tell them they are wrong, they say "that's your problem".
It isn't my problem, it's actually their problem & they have another problem, mental issue's!

I'd rather be fat and happy.
