  1. Made it. Holy shit this is nuts
  2. Registration button finally showed up for big o. Registered and heading out tomorrow
  3. Pretty close to what my uncle did, and left me a nice inheritance because of it. Would sell off small chunks when the market was high/had to because of IRA rules, always keeping 7 years of expenses in cd/savings/money market. With house and car paid off and Social Security coming in 7 years was only a couple hundred grand. He had around $2 million when he retired 20 years ago, had >$2 million when he died last year.
  4. Wut?
  5. I read that thread every day, multiple times a day. It's my all time favorite thread on the board. I've deleted 100's of off topic posts on that thread. If it's 2-3 posts about some tangentially related topic that is followed by many posts on topic I'll generally leave it. If it's a dozen or more off topic posts in a row that are mainly people's opinions of something that is completely unrelated to Ukrane and Russia and is taking over the thread I am either going to move or delete the posts. Here's phrases I look for when I decide it's politics or not: No CR but, my team, your team, but obama/hillary/bush/clinton, republicans should, democrats should, this legislation did x, this legistration should be fixed But the main thing that determines it for me when people say my opinion is that a politician or legislative body should do something or did something. I have dozens of posts around the board saying this and explaining it. A tweet saying congress or Biden approved arms to Urkane is news. Stating that "I wish (pollitician/leg) would send more stuff" is political
  6. Pretty sure I deleted all the posts relating to brexit. Part political/part off topic. Sorry I missed Trey's post. I won't apologize for deleting off topic shit in that thread.
  7. One thing I did learn in the research is that wolves get the nutrients that are missing in the diet above from eating the guts of the plant eating animals they eat.
  8. I've been doing similar. 2 pounds meat 6 cups starch 1 cup vegetable meat -rotate between chicken thighs and pork buts, mix in any leftover meat that doesn't get eaten. Once a month add beef and chicken hearts or chicken gizzards filler - rotate between rice, brown rice and sweet potatoes. Regular potatoes when they start to go bad. Dogs go nuts over sweet potatoes vegetable rotate between spinach, carrots, frozen peas and carrots, broccoli According to what I've read this should cover everything they need, but I did talk to my vet about it and she said there are several things they are missing in this diet and I needed to buy additives or mix in some regular dog food. She has seen multiple dogs on homemade diets dead from heart or liver failure from missing nutrients. I spent a few hours poking around trying to figure out what they were missing. A couple of sites had you enter info about your dog and then they would provide you with a recipe and an additive. It recommended a recipe of 100% skinless chicken breast along with $100 worth of additives per week. I love my dogs but I'm not spending $800 a month to feed them. So I've reverted to 1/2 regular dog food 1/2 of the above. I'll dig back into figuring out what they are missing sometime soon so I can remove the regular dog food.
  9. I was told no political stuff would be posted here.
  10. Let’s review your posting in this thread: You: call me names me: here is the reasons I did this you: post gif you: personal attack obviously to even the most casual observer you have bested me. I crown you king of message boards.
  11. Ok my point #6 has been proven wrong. My apologies for my assumption. I was wrong. now disprove 1-5 and I’ll open that thread back up
  12. Do you actually enjoy people flinging shit back and forth about my team/your team/but obama?
  13. So I shouldn't allow political stuff in DT because it's a safe space for conservatives?
  14. And that thread already has hillary/pence/biden political shit in it
  15. Why the hell are all the playoff rounds 3 game series, then get to the final 4 and it's just 1 game?
  16. @Captainant @Beau Vine @Js1 @Wally Fairway @Brian Fantana People complain that DT is a safe space for people on the right because I allow them to post political things there. Now people are complaining that I don't allow political news there. Which is it? There's a couple of reasons I shut the Trump thread down. 1. You guys act like fucking 5 year olds joking about it, trying to get a rise out of me ("I wonder if he'll ban me if I post the home alone 2 tweet?"), the very definition of trolling. You don't really care if there is a thread there, some of you just want to be jackasses. 2. The same shit will be posted in that thread and the thread in CR. I fucking hate reading two threads about the same topic and having to scroll past the same tweets/posts over and over. 3. No matter what, people will start making political opinions on that thread, our team, your team, but obama, but biden, etc, and I nor the other mods have fucking time to police another fucking huge thread. It will mirror the CR thread in short order. 4. You people act like it's a crime against humanity, worse than the holocaust that you have to click one button to get to the CR, like surly is going to empower a political movement that's going to take over the world if you can't post it in DT. Newsflash: the board the thread is in doesn't fucking matter. I'm not empowering facists by making certain threads go in the cloak room. I'm keeping politics in one place. 5 This has been the rule for 16 years. I've seen multiple message boards blow up and die due to politics taking over threads all over the board. I know you guys think we do a horrible job at it, we do the best we can. It's a thankless job and frankly sucks. 6 The majority of the board feels the way I do. Yeah, yeah, bad survey. If you're so confident people feel the way you do start a thread here will a poll about how people feel political topics should be handled, word it however you'd like to. I am eager to see the results. And for the record I am fucking ecstatic Trump and Paxton are getting drilled. I hope they both go to prison for the rest of their miserable lives. People who support these two criminals are a fucking stain on our country.
  17. there's a thread in the CR for this.
  18. Not about politics? Here's a post from DonkeyCigars. All this post says is "we're divided on abortion", yet three people felt it was worth neg repping. If these were not politically motivated, what are they?
  19. I'm not doing anything on negs made before my previous post. Be less of a jackass and it won't happen.
  20. Well from my perspective looking at the thread it looked like you didn't have him on ignore and were responding to him.
  21. report the posts that it's done on and put a note in the comments
  22. I don't think I've seen you do this, so no not talking to you. Mullet is on his last leg, one more russian talking point and he's out. Most of animal smoking posts are completely innocuous. Yes he has some completely shit opinions but the fact he isn't liberal enough is not a bannable offense. Other than these two I can't think of another recurring shit poster such as Ray Pugh that I don't ban on sight
  23. I have no problem with people negging individuals for a shitty/trollish post. But you shouldn't be finding old posts that are completely innocuous and negging them. If I see a that I'm going to start erasing all your rep history. If you don't like a poster put him on ignore and move on with your life. If you think he's trolling don't respond to them and report the posts. Not sure how some dumbass can make you guys so mad that you take time out of your life to go find old posts and neg them.
  24. we have slushies at home
