    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    To be honest I don't. That was the main thing that made this so stressful and annoying. He came home that night and the story was as I posted. The story the principal gave my wife was that he said that the kid was gay to the kids face (not faggot or queer or some other slur). So went in the next...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Not starting a Crusade at all, because honestly, I think for reasons Tarrant touched on, it is NOT acceptable to talk about things like that with anyone at school. It was just my wife was throwing accusations about why I was reacting like I was, as if I was trying to cover for him or whatnot...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Right question shouldn't have been asked period. It was none of his business, period, end of story. HOWEVER. I can think of a 100 different punishments that don't involve going to the extreme. I mean seriously Saturday School for this is the same as the discussions on whether hate speech...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Of course not but that is nowhere near what happened either. He didn't even call the kid in question gay. He just asked his friends about him behind what he thought were closed doors. I'm sorry, not trying to ruffle any feathers, but I just fail to see the extreme crime in asking a question...

    It's the new in school suspension. It's just a little building where they send them, and they use it for saturday school as well.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Oh I will fully admit it. I have taught him what that word means, and that people who are gay are otherwise the exact same as those who aren't outside of the obvious attraction thing. However, I will never think that it's ok to throw the book at a child for using words. Words do not = violence...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Not just thrown in prison for calling him gay, but he was turned in by peers, so God only knows what really happened, as I'm willing to bet those little brown shirts probably painted a pretty bad picture in their retelling to the teacher on duty at lunch.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I talked about this in the parenting thread... He was playing a game with other kids at recess, and the boy who won twerked at him, and it freaked him out, and he asked his friends if they thought this kid was gay at lunch time. Even had he called the kid gay to his face, I still think a...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Married 12 years and we had the third really BIG fight last week. Our son got in trouble at school, and they threw his ass into Saturday school. I thought the punishment was extremely excessive, while the wife was in agreement with the school. It caused an argument that started out with little...

    The Delicious Candy Thread

    My kids love those damn things and of course they now sell them in bulk UGH. To me these are the only non chocolate candy I love and they are tits and ass as far as I'm concerned:

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    We just did pulled pork barbecue and the typical sides, a cake, and a DJ. I think our entire wedding was less than a couple grand. Not long after we were married we went to a friend of the family's where they spent north of 25 grand. They had a fucking interior designer do the decorations...

    Survivor

    I think this season has serious potential. A very diverse cast of personalities (not in an sjw way), and Alan is going to be comedy gold if he can survive long enough.

    Yeah liquid diet should produce liquid shit (well not bubbling cola liquid but definitely not a log either). My daughter was constipated and I had to literally root in there and pull one out because it was hurting her so bad (she was an infant) it was the worst thing I ever had to do.

    Making a child go to their room and confining them there is not cruel. You need to lose that mentality or what is a sign of healthy, strong personality traits in that 2 yo will balloon out of control and become a monster. As someone with a son with the same traits, I can tell you it's hard...

    My problem is, with the over proliferation of being politically correct, kids are no longer allowed to just be kids. Everything is about bullying now, not them just being little shits to each other, so what was minor 20 years ago, is completely blown out of proportion today. Things that I did...

    We are sticking with the public school for now. He is getting moved to a different class to split up the gruesome twosome. It's a small town, and I work at the same school system as the IT guy, so yanking our kids is not exactly an easy proposition due to optics of it all. Which, I don't care...

    This is exactly why I never wanted to do it, and still don't. Meeting is over, we will never know what really happened as son gave principal one story (she's still Stalin, but not a liar) and gave us another last night, so my feeling is the truth is somewhere in the middle. We are making him...

    So, yeah, as of yesterday I am now firmly in the camp of homeschool or private school your kids. I have been adamant that they go to public school to learn the pitfalls of navigating this society, but I am throwing in the towel. My son is 100% alpha and is a handful, not going to lie, and he...

    And yep the worthless fucks in mine will do the same thing if either of mine come out, and the ending will be pretty similar. Thanks noodlebro. I see it now, and see that he said it in passing. I'm used to much more detailed recounting going on around here, that I assumed that was mid way...

    Ok I have went back all the way to my botched blowjob posts and I cannot find Big W's story... I am legit curious as to what happened to cause him to break a family member's nose at a family gathering, as I have wanted to do that to a few worthless fucks at my own for quite some time. Can I get...

    Big Brother

    I don't follow the whole meta universe of Big Brother enough, but I'd love to see Paul react to the social media community at large who has been shitting all over him for 3 months now. Talk about a blindside. Dude has to have been getting hit hard with a dose of reality over the last 36 hours...

    Big Brother

    How was him running to a bunch of minions and siccing them on his current target to bang pots and pans in an attempt to make the target get physical entertaining? I'll admit when he switched tactics once it was just the couples, I did appreciate that a little bit more for sure, but at that...

    Oh totally. This is going to totally prove me for the old fart that I am, but it's a huge problem with this generation. They are so full of themselves and have their heads so far up their own ass, that they are completely and totally self unaware. The fact that he totally did not see the...

    Big Brother

    It totally is. Russel Hantz lost because, while he did totally dominate the actual game (took a core of 4 people and took out a core of 8), he was openly a dick about it and it cost him. However, his game was lost in the jury just because of who he took with him to the final 3. However, in...

    Big Brother

    Right I'm seeing a bunch of bitter jury gripes in the NeoGaf thread, and I'm like, yep they are bitter, and Paul should have KNOWN they'd be bitter. Did he really think they wouldn't FINALLY compare notes in the sequestered Jury house? I honestly believe he could have easily salvaged a 5-4 win...

    Big Brother

    What a terribly perfect ending to a shitty season. The fans were able to give a giant fuck you to production with AFP. It was worth such a terrible person winning just to see Paul's reaction. Here is to hoping no returning players next season.

    Your cons are why I hate Apple. I absolutely cannot stand when some pretentious presenter comes in to my school with their fancy tax payer funded mac and look at me angrily because they are too stupid to bring the things needed to get their device to actually work with high quality projectors...

    Wow the jury house coverage was actually fun to watch. Production will send dr will in to make sure they vote the right way.

    Totally. That was his cult thing... and my god it worked. That part was legit scary to me. Yes from Paul's angle, but also that people are that easy to completely snowball.

    Very true but with his 3 weeks of complete safety, that was enough time for him to dig his claws into everyone's head and get rid of anyone not buying his shit

    Not trying to discount their stupidity by any stretch, but in this context we are allowed some semblance of omnipresence as we watch this unfold. It's all obvious to us, because we basically can see everything going down at the same time. However, the dude could seriously run a cult, and he...

    You know this is what is going to happen next year as Big Brother has had some form of returning players or their relatives (or both) come on the show since season 16. Personally I think Paul was just the perfect storm. Dude just has the personality to run a cult and he used that to his full...

    Yeah @Noodleface that is insane that she even said that to you. I'd have punched a wall if my wife did that to me. @Onoes dude I'm sorry. It seems like you fall into a bucket of (sometimes crazy, yes) shit and as soon as you get out of that, you trip and fall into another. And we aren't...

    We have one of those love seat things where there is a console and cupholder in the middle. I've learned to put a 27 inch monitor on a decorative chair we have for extra seating and my PS4/Alienware Alpha are on my end table. I just game with my hearing aids plugged into the sound (which makes...

    Unconfirmed -- Bethesda: Game of Thrones

    I just don't see how a game with one character that explores the whole world as a singular hero would even jive with the theme of both the book and the show, which that would be the game Bethesda Studios would create. To me they need to do this game as like a Medieval X game where you pick a...

    Going to get this for my son's birthday. Due to our shitty internet connection, I'm hoping that me and him can duo most of the non "raid" content. We've played Dark Souls together and it was mostly ok, but I could tell we lagged a bit, and wouldn't want to subject anyone's enjoyment to our...

    I really don't like calling light of depression, but keeping it real, sounds like the dude is a manchild to be honest. How do you quit your job to write a book you don't even know will get published or read when you have a wife and kids? I mean hell I wrote a book, and I'd love for people to...

    I live just 45 minutes south of you, trust me, no I don't haha. Not only that my mom's friend is a school bus driver there (which is weird since we are from northwest Indiana, but small world whatever). We go there often enough to know that place is a powder keg of the wrong kind of diversity...
