I have co-workers that find it amusing when clients have explosive anger episodes. That reason alone would be enough to dislike those co-workers. Definitely the wrong field to be in if people's mental health issues amuse you.

Really wish I could go back to bed. It felt like another "early morning" when I woke up, but NOPE! It was my normal wake up. You'd have thought I went on a bender instead of just staying up watching a movie the way I feel today

Well gentlemen, hit the report button and lodge your complaint like I did. Because I'm tired of these numb nuts who get the boot coming back under a new name

Hey gang, I deleted my post with the quote. You guys might want to do the same. I wasn't trying to spoil anything, just quoting this douche bag and telling the to shut the hell up

Haven't a clue Most of these dill holes have multiple accounts. So it turns into a "Cut off one head and two more shall take its place." situation most of the time.

I don't have a clue who they were, but I think they were/are going by Thanos Gauntlet(?). I deleted the quote after Scarface and you chimed in about spoilers

But it wasn’t tagged, that’s the problem. The guy just wrote the spoiler with no tag.

I went all this time with no spoilers and then BAM! in the "what's on your mind" thread of all places.

Yep, no tags.

Sorry gang, that's on me. I should have just hit the report button instead of quoting them in my reply



On a side note: I appreciate the mod team taking appropriate action towards that post, but I hope they do a better job cleaning up a thread the next time something stupid like this happens. Because both Scarface and I ended up deleting our posts after the damage was already done.

Man, so not going to miss my ******* neighbors to the left of us. They were a thorn in my father in law's life, so we inherited that when we took over the house after his passing. The boy was acting a little high strung right before bed. So we ask him to go out and run back and forth from the back porch to the fence. Next thing we know we here this yelling coming outside. The Mrs goes out to see what's going on and our boy is visible upset. Because all he hears is someone yelling.

Turns out she is yelling at him, "Tell your Dad we don't want the monkey BARS!!" She eventually pops her old, lazy ass over the fence and tells my wife. By this point we're trying to calm our son down and my wife tells me to just let it go. They are someone else's problem in another month. Still, I've got a bit of the ass. Because I initially talked to their daughter and her face to face. I didn't yell over the fence like some ****ing ill mannered hillbilly. Man, I really hope my new neighbors are as awesome as our other neighbors on our right.

If I caught someone else yelling at one of my kids, they better be ready (unless my kids were deserving of being yelled it) but that's not the case here. People are flippin' idiots. Just put some nails underneath her tires and let it take care of itself.

I was just out of the service
Thumbin' through the classifieds
When an ad that said "Old Chevy"
Somehow caught my eye
The lady didn't know the year
Or even if it ran
But I had that thousand dollars in my hand
It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn
With thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp
And when I pulled the cover off
It took away my breath
What she called a Chevy
Was a sixty-six Corvette
And I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills
But what a thrill I got
When I sat behind the wheel
I opened up the glovebox
And that's when I found the note
The date was 1966 and this is what he wrote

He said "my name is Private Andrew Malone
And if you're readin' this, then I didn't make it home
But for every dream that's shattered
Another one comes true
This car was once a dream of mine
Now it belongs to you
Though you may take her and make her your own
You'll always be riding with Private Malone"

Well it didn't take me long at all
I had her runnin' good
I loved to hear those horses thunder underneath her hood
I had her shinin' like a diamond and I put the rag top down
All the pretty girls would stop and stare as I drove her through town
The buttons on the radio didn't seem to work quite right
But it picked up that Oldie's Show
Especially late at night
Sometimes I get the feelin' if I turned real quick I'd see
A soldier ridin' shotgun
In the seat right next to me
