afterburn, I do not see Rick as upset, etc. like you say.

I see a man who is enjoying a little psychoanalysis.

Don't anybody pick apart that word. Please.

Anyway afterburn, as you know, a lot of what goes on here is trivial stuff... just for fun... look at my hand I burnt on the grill... look at this spider I pulled out of my ear... look at this big, fat momma on a Harley.

Rick's not a drama queen, afterburn... he's just showing us an idiot. It's fun to watch an idiot.

I could go on and name a few idiots we have here, but then this would either get closed or sent to PARF where you can learn what a real black hole of rationality is.

Thanx !
Again we all monitor our brain balance from with in...and when I look out and saw this thread about how devastating it is / was for "someone" to have parked wrong.....I could not believe it...so I responded that someone needed some "couch" time, a chill pill of sorts...So..I will let t all slide...Like most phycos,- they can not be helped...My favorite saying is you can not fix it if you do not know that it is "broke"
That works here LOL

It's not 'psycho' to post things that annoy you and see if the rest of the world agrees. In fact, doing so is a sign of sanity. Asking if your perception of reality is in line with the rest of the world is normal. The internet just gives us a broader range of people to gather information from.

We all have idle time. Some of us use it here, some tend their gardens, some go the gym. Whatever. Be thankful you live in a place where we have the freedom, time, and money to burn. The majority of the world doesn't.

Reminder - While I like that little business card idea, I did not make it up. I just found it on the ground where d'bag's car had been. Of course, I would have punctuated it correctly and used less of a pussy-like font.

If that happened in AZ, I'd take that dog indoors and call the police.

That's fairly ingenious... it would be cruel to lock the dog IN the van, but this way it's like the dog is outside in one's yard... it can go to the shade under the van if it wants to cool off.

I don't understand people who have to take their dog with them everywhere they go. Maybe that person was travelling alone with the dog and had no other option. I'd bet they weren't in the store long. Just guessing.

You do realize that your climate is completely uninhabitable for humans, animals and probably space aliens, right?? I've never understood these debates over which is a better place to live with AZ. vs. anywhere in the mix...AZ. is a non-starter for me if you gave me a free house and a new Porsche.

My mutt goes everywhere with me.....she has seperation anxiety. She also listens to my demons, gives me good advise and no BS.....lots better than the exwife. Also, no complaints on 2am chocolate runs and has alerted me to 3 burglars......

If she had boobs and an uncle that owns a liquor store she'd freaking perfect.....

You stay in KA and I'll stay in AZ and we'll all be happy.

I was there once, or a hundred times. At my rental properties. Brand new 5 bedroom homes in an instant DR Horton Section 8 ghetto. Sleeping on my Aero bed with my 38 special under my pillow and a piece of cardboard over my CA license plate. The day had been rough... 3 of my homes had been vandalized/flooded/windows shot out/stripped. You can have AZ. Its for the zonies. But I did make a hella lot of money off those zonies

I've never been to an area like that in AZ. I hear about them, but I stay away. Ditto for ghettos in any other state.

Litchfield Park. Was really nice when they threw up the houses, but it went downhill fast. Probably the Kalifornians' fault.

It's probably the fault of people who bought (or rented) houses they couldn't afford, regardless of residency. I try to stay northeast of the 101.
