In order to compete (well make the gap a little closer) with the prices of online stores, the LGS near me has started a frequent buyer program. Basically, they keep a card with your name on it and every time you make a purchase, they put the pre-tax total onto the card (6% sales tax is added on at t...

Ex's are wonderful when you realize that they are actually a terrible person and you're way too good for them. Theyre 100 times better when they come to you after they break up with someone else and are super easy to take advantage of. Not that I would do that or anything.... :wink: Hey this is wha...

Thats definitely true! In the end it won't be that much money, because I'll pay off the loan early and not have to deal with 100% of the interest.

And as of today (as I'm sure some of you already know) I officially own my home and am $150,000 in debt =P

With all the advice we were giving you, it was leading to a Mr Peanut costume. And the tuxedo he's wearing is implied.

And cane! You're on your way to a Mr Peanut Costume!

Why do you think I have a garden? No one gets concerned when the garden is all tilled up.

Literal Translation: "If things are like this, why should I bother unionizing at all? And if things are going really well, why are unions trying to push their way into my workplace?" Don't put words in my mouth that I didn't say. I've never said Unions were useless, I simply believe that i...

Allerion: Try reading posts the whole way through. You might have noticed that I was commenting on the 'free medical care' and 'free universities' parts of Meif's post if you bothered to spend half a second comprehending what I wrote. Also, show me where I said that I "honestly think that union...

Yes, there are places where it definitely doesn't work that way. But in other ways it does. I like the freedoms I have that other countries don't and am ok with the amount of programs my government has.

No, just commenting on that things usually balance out.

Meif wrote:And I live in a country which gives next-to-free medical coverage to all it's citizens . Also, there are like 3 unions which handle the things for like 90% of all workforce in the country . Oh, and universities etc. are free

And sacrifice other things in life.

Coulda swore we are talking about countries that have laws in place to protect employee rights outside of unions... I mean your company can't really treat you like shit in first world countries as you are protected, unless employees are just complaining because their mcdonalds job doesn't provide f...

I'm just sayin that in my case, my company gives me everything I need, so why would I want a Union?

I think it all depends on what job you're in if a union is worth it. Nothing would suck more in forming a union, going through the bargaining process, and ending up with a $0.15 an hour increase, while having to pay yearly union dues. I'm against them in my own company, but then we get treated fairl...

So, while everything tends to go well in my everyday life with work and the house and things of that nature, it seems that fate saves all the drama for my love life =P Right now, my gf is having a lot of issues (for lack of a better word that doesn't reveal too much) and the hardest thing is that it...

I can say that as an Ogre Player who uses Deathstars of both the Bull and Gut variety, that you're little eagles will be the first thing that I spend my time shooting. Just saying to redirect with Eagles isn't a good answer that will cover every situation. The important thing to note is that the hor...

Haha thanks Maddo. I was surprised at how affordable buying a house really is. As for the promotion, its more of a waiting til someone else above me moves higher so I can move into that spot.

So for me, I haven't posted in here in a loooooooooong time, I think a quick update is in order. In the past 9 months, I've received 2 promotions at work and I am currently in the process of buying a small house (my first one). Hopefully a 3rd promotion will be coming within the next year and the on...

Another one they destroyed was Farscape.

Television shows exist for the sole purpose of making money.

It's also frustrating to see USA actors who haven't a clue on history or law to totally disrespect the right to choose for the inhabitants of the islands and come out and say Britain should hand over soveriegnity. Bit hypocritical really, considering the US' own foreign policy and their own "c...

Catching a Manticore Lord with a unit on foot isn't that easy.

Really, just kill the manticore and beat the DL with combat resolution. Manticores are way squishier than the characters on top of them, and are a serious hindrance to put on a lord.

A shire would be much safer than a trailer park!! :lol: You live in SD? watch out, border patrol is checking green cards.... Heh. I'm the right shade of elf flesh.. They don't even bother asking where I am from. Instead I get the lazy "move along..", accompanied by a hand wave. These aren...

The pizza shop "accidentally" made me a large boli instead of a mini one. Lucky me!

I think the problem you're having is that you're not getting the image link. Make sure you right click on the picture and click view image, the url should be one that ends in .jpg

[edit] or some other appropriate picture file ending, but most likely .jpg

Hi, I'm Nick and I thought that I would add some crossover from the Off-Topic forum. There appears to be 2 separate worlds on U.net and I'm only part of that weird other one. I'm 25 and an Assistant Produce Manager at a grocery store. https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/150206_46176...

Still going with it's a man. Or maybe you thought she was a girl and then later found out she was a dude
