In college I was a bouncer at a bar. The things I would see, oh the things. But yes, go on. Let us all make assumptions to make ourselves feel better.
Being judged by some people in here, some that have a wife that doesn’t even know that having two different curtains in the same room is a bit… trash lol.
oh the fucking hilarity.
Arrogance. We’re talking about arrogance here.
Everything is going to be confusing for you when you’re trying desperately like this.

What am I desperately trying to do? I don’t feel desperate. I kinda check in on this thread once or twice a day so I don’t fall too far behind. Catch up to where the conversation is. Sometimes I have something to say, sometimes not. I don’t really have an end goal with this thread, I’m just along for the ride. So I’m not sure how desperation fits in here.
I’ll let you behind the curtain a little. I’m not always busy at work. When I’m not busy at work, I browse TNation forums most days. I actually don’t log on here at all on weekends or nights. I have other stuff occupying my time then. This is just a way to pass some time when I’m not otherwise occupied at work. This thread is up to 2000 posts now, so obviously there’s something about the conversation that is holding a lot of peoples interests. But that’s all this thread means to me. If you disappeared and never posted again after today, it wouldn’t affect my life in any meaningful way. I’d engage in other threads, drop this one. Slam, bam, ham sandwich.

Desperate to have a rebuttal for anything I say or to slam me.
If there is a legitimate criticism fine, but people are stretching themselves thin trying to come at me.
To be fair, all of your societal comments have been much thinner. Flip’s doing way better than most of us if you’re worried about quality.
I’m not people. I’m a person. It’s funny how your outlook on society is so similar to the way you see this thread. You attribute the things you observe on a personal level in your life to represent society as a whole. You’re taking individual responses here and deciding that people are bending over backwards to put you down. I’m really only responding to the posts where I’m tagged or I see you’ve replied directly to me. I’m mostly ignoring your other posts, unless I see something worth commenting on. No individual in this thread is coming at you on every single thing you post, but if you just group us all together, then I can see how it feels that way.

haha, what? You just gave yourself a 50 percent chance that a comment I made once again pertains to me.
Every single one of you keep doing this. Like I said, stretching yourselves thin to come at me at every turn.
Do you think I need you to? I’ve got my own fucking lunch meat, which I EARNED. I just don’t want to make my own sandwich because I think I’m too good for that. Perhaps you’ve forgotten that I’m an American woman?
I must be pretty good at driving (pics coming) because Mr. Q regularly offers to be the passenger. I pull gender, though, and refuse unless he’s sick or particularly ragged from work.

This is very funny. I laughed.
Women have slower reaction times than men. But men tend to be more dangerous on the road…
I still wouldn’t let you drive.
And yet the man who knows me feels perfectly fine with it. In fact, he likes me to drive the big ass plow truck and tractor and has talked about the dump truck and big excavator. Personally, I would as soon stick to my little Cherokee.
I wonder why he feels so secure in my abilities and you feel there would be a threat?

because he’s stupid.
That must be it!

Does he let you plow him as well? You know, since he trusts you with big things?
I’ve been meaning to say that this was an excellent post and I enjoyed reading it. The Bell Curve, which received so much negative press years ago, talked about this. Everything changes with affluence and the traits tending to correlate. Life expectancy, for example, changes dramatically when you select for income.

Shall we try not to be gross, or is that too high an expectation for someone approaching 40 who makes $500K a year?
You know what is actually ironic about your little stab there. It’s that if things pan out, in the next 2 or so years this could be a reality for me. Not that high, but close.
Or it can all go belly up and I’ll need a career change, going back to entry level.
The Bell Curve came out in the 90s. But I guess you’re talking about it’s resurgence in the press when one of the authors came out with another book I think, and did a round of interviews with people like Sam Harris.
