    Well, my wife and I are late 30's, and we also don't even have a million saved up. We're well on our way though!

    Seriously, they taste better. I think the thin mint ones are $1.30, and the other two are somewhere around $1.60 or $1.70.

    Aldi's has thin mint, samoa, and peanut butter knock offs that are actually better than Girl Scout. Plus, they're about $1.30-1.70 a box.

    Got pretty bored watching that. So both movies used a lot of tropey generic scenes? Gasp! Seriously, they showed two scenes of guys smoking. Yes, clearly this is plagiarism. I don't know, maybe they really did, but I kind of have to roll my eyes at this.

    I mean sure, but I think I'd rather be dead than eat 72 cans of vienna sausages.

    Jojo Rabbit (2019)

    The Heil Hitler bit was funny, but it's kind of overdone. I mean, Spies Like Us is 35 years old. I really enjoyed pretty much everything about this movie, except ScarJo. There was something about her that was offputting in this. I'm not entirely sure what it was though.

    Curb your Enthusiasm

    Fuck, that was a damn good episode. They need more JB. His scenes have been lacking this season. That whole "I don't give my weight, or my god damn height. That's called a description of a motherfucker" absolutely floored me. Had to pause it. That was also a super long episode. Came in at 45...

    US markets will close for extenuating circumstances as well. Basically, no one wants a Black Friday type event again. The thinking being that if you can avoid the initial panic, by shutting the markets down, you can avoid the giant drop and inevitable bounce back. Basically, a protection against...

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    We should come up with a system for when all the celebrities start dying of coronavirus. Having one post per celebrity will become unwieldy fast.

    Kobe Bryant killed in helicopter accident, 41

    Yeah, I'm confused by this story. But my only experience is Navy pilots, where you get instrument qualified like 3 weeks into flight school. Some guy crashing his helicopter because of fog in the LA area just seems bizarre.

    I'll be honest, I had to watch that like 5 or 6 times before I realized what the error was.

    Retard Dumping Ground

    Oh, also, I actually think I could see a ND with a crew served weapon as being more likely. But only in one circumstance, and that's in the mount, on a bumpy road, where you fall into the butterfly. That doesn't excuse it, but I think that falls more in line with "accidental."

    Retard Dumping Ground

    We had pretty much a no tolerance policy for it (only ever served in one unit). You'd go for UCMJ and demotion, but also kicked out of the unit (if not out of the Army altogether). I can only think of 2, however. Both were into clearing barrels in Iraq.

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    This is the state of media now. No one gives a shit about getting information correct, only first. Which is why when I heard Kobe was dead, I said, "How about we wait for confirmation." Because there was a good chance the whole thing was wrong.

    The Prepper Thread

    A few years ago our work hosted a disaster preparedness briefing. It was a bit of a wakeup call for us, and so we went out and bought about 10 gallons of water that we stored in a closet. Unrelated, we ended up building our van (2018 Promaster) for camping. It's got a 100A lithium battery and...

    I thought that plotline worked decently well. My complaints about the season were mostly due to the completely out of place lesbian shit, and his son.

    When you say Facebook, do you mean a local page setup specifically for that? That's been by far the best option I've found. But I'll caveat that with we haven't done a massive "get rid of shit" in several years. Otherwise, I'd say a fucking yard/garage sale.

    Over the last year I've been "revisiting" music from different decades during my workouts. Shit's kind of depressing, and since it's 2020, I figured I'd make you all feel bad with a small selection. 20 years old: 25 years old: 30 years old: 35 years old:

    Weird, because the only reason real estate really works is leverage. If you've got the cash to buy something outright, you're probably better off investing elsewhere.

    Except he said 40 hours, and not just one year, every year. Over the course of 40 years, that's almost an entire year of "extra" work. I get it, the allure of extra cushion is appealing. The difficult decision to make is calling enough, enough. I won't chastise you for making that decision...

    Life is finite. If you're one of those people who has a passion for a job, congratulations. If you're the other 90% of people, well, is it really worth trading precious hours of your life for money to buy shit you may not actually want or need?
