    Eh, that's unrealistic I think. There's things all up and down my life I wish I had done differently or could have changed. I think anyone saying otherwise isn't being real with themselves, but that's just me. And I'm an emotional guy, today is one of those days where it hits harder than...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Of course it's on the parents, and sometime just one parent but again at that time you have to make the decision whats best for them in the long run. Would your home have been a great place for your kids to be around you both while she was out getting dick all the time? Can you say that wouldn't...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It’s not pointless if kids are involved. My second marriage, my wife was physically and emotionally abusive, she was mentally unstable with the paper work to prove it. There’s no way that keeping my son in that environment In the long term would have been better for him as he develops than in a...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I didn’t misread anything. I’m proposing the exact opposite experience, which is what I’ve had. And that both our sample sizes are too small to make an accurate observation in regard to the matter. In the long run though, concerning children, I think it’s best to keep them out of a house...

    My oldest turns 16 today and emotionally I’m a big baby over the whole thing. Where the heck did all that time go? And more importantly, how do I get it all back? :( I’m finding myself also more bitter than usual about all the missed time in his life due to his mother cheating 10 years ago...

    Desktop Computers

    I mean if I’m looking to spend $1200ish (maybe up to $1400) am I sacrificing a lot by going AMD in terms of performance or am I gaining anything or should I stick with Intel/Nvidia?

    The Ketogenic Diet/Recipe Thread

    Going Keto without being able to eat anything seed or nut related is really hard. I've been doing my best since the new year with the occasion small bits here and there that go against it and now all I drink is water and since the new year I've dropped 19lbs. I guess it's not super Keto...but...

    I mean all the women I’ve dated came from not divorced homes and I’m running at like a 6% not crazy ratio. IE: your sample size is too small.

    While that's what happened, had the Saints scored, the Rams would have got the chance to right after that. Thus why it's not sudden death.

    Really? Because that’s 90% of what your post referenced. But then again I didn’t read the manifesto you posted either.

    Man I really dig this show, it's really, imo, come into it's own. Half way between buddy cop and an actual drama. I really enjoy it.

    Oh I wasn’t aware of the buy out, I thought the brothers still owned each one individually and a brief search showed that information to be accurate as well. But maybe I missed something. If so, my bad.

    I would argue that the best grocery store in the world is actually located in the MN/Dakota region and is called Hyvee. Damn I miss that place. A lot.

    I feel like Aldi doesn't get near the love it should. I know a lot of people that look down on it like its some poor people store, but the place legit has great food and a lot of their brands strait up rock.

    The Eating on a Budget Thread

    One of the stores by me regularly has a discounted meat case. Nothing bad in it, just stuff that's a few days away from the sell by. I once bought 40lbs of chicken thighs and legs for $5 out of it. I cleaned them out, took it home, vacuum sealed it. If I were you I'd always swing by and see...

    I use Netflix enough that I just stay with it year round. The rate hike doesn't bother me, at the end of the day I watch it more than normal TV and it's 1/6 the price. -shrug-

    They looked for stones when they did the CT, in three different scans, no stones were shown and yeah, nothing on the ultrasound. We will find out tomorrow what the scoop is I guess. (Hopefully)

    So theres something wrong with what I now know to be my only kidney. Not sure what it is, but the pain in it is around an 8 or so and while it used to pulse in and out of that range now its staying there. I had to go in for an ultrasound of it tonight (mainly for pain management meds) and much...

    Really good episode tonight, I'm glad we got back to this style where story telling was first and humor was well placed and second. I hope that continues, it's what made season 1 so good. I'm gonna miss her though :(
