The judge at my hearing asked me if I was absolutely sure I was willing to agree to the terms. She highly recommended I go get a lawyer. I just wanted it to be over. I do regret agreeing to one stipulation, but otherwise I was ok with the settlement. Sometimes you just want peace and an end to any need to communicate with the ex.

Pal of mine STILL gets calls from his ex. Divorced over 30 years with no end in sight. Me? Still working on #1. She is seriously flawed but cheaper to keep her.
(And I'm pretty sure I don't pass the flawless test either) |

Is it just me, or are bottles/jars being engineered so that they are impossible to open without water pump pliers these days?????

I tried to get the inner safety stick-on thingy off a bottle of salad dressing yesterday. It had enough glue to hold the wings on a 747. I had to use a knife to carve the damn thing off the bottle.

Another thing that I've noticed is that the art of leaving off a small dab of glue at the center of the top seal of a cardboard milk/juice container seems to have been lost since the advent of the plastic cap on the side. There is absolutely no way to tear the ears back on a carton and get it to fold open with a pour spout, because the glue is holding the tip of the spout tightly.....

Duct tape is like The Force. It has a light side, a dark side, and is the only thing holding the universe together.
I'll disagree on WD-40. It is a water-displacer (WD) and penetrant...NOT a lubricant. Someone needs to edumicate Hank Hill that locks should only be lubricated with dry lubricants, such as graphite. Since this is the old farts thread, we all should remember how useful WD-40 was back in the day for drying out wet ignition wires on cars/motorcycles. I don't know if you have shoplifting problems in Germany, but here in the US packages are intentionally designed to be difficult to open so that low-lifes don't pop them open in the stores and steal one or more parts.....

My wife is Filipino and they all swear by this " magical " home remedy??? I woke up this morning with a sore ankle and first thing my wife asked was if I wanted her to get the Vick's?? That's her answer whether it's a sprain, a toothache ....... if I was having a heartattack she'll probably rub Vick's in my freaking chest before calling 911 |

When the locals are talking about hurricanes and mention Katrina and you go, "Whatever. You weren't around for Camille...her bitch mom."

And what was the one that nearly wiped out a large chunk of central FL back in the early 90's? My ex was working for an insurance company that nearly went bankrupt after that.

As they should be. Current music sucks! Is there even such a thing as new rock and roll? We stream music in the office and the station changes every few hours. When it gets to current pop my ears bleed.

Surreal is the only word that works to describe those scenes.
