FCP

The actual work in my job isn’t bad. Old telephone man. Sometimes a rough house or something, but most of my work-related stress comes from overzealous management. ...

Had Starlink for a couple of years before Charter finally got fiber to us. It was an okay solution. It had some latency issues and we would get regular slowdowns due to traffic. Gaming sucked (according to my teenage kids), but it handled WFH reasonably well. That said, when I got the fiber, it was ...

Nowhere near your league. I've been filing extensions since the 2020 tax year. Had crap going on in real life and didn't feel like cutting into my TD shitposting time. Finally got it cleaned up a couple of months ago. Paid for some years, got a credit for others. Whatever. A month after everything w...

[quote]hwy 63 corridor was what made the most sense [/quote]It would pretty much be a bridge over the Amite then existing roadway all the way back to I-12.

Not the early 90s obscene ones, but still a definite bell shaped pants leg, with the cuff completely covering her shoes. ...

[quote]Where with the scheduled riots be this summer?[/quote]Work for a Fortune 100, and they had a cryptic email blast earlier this week telling us to be on the lookout for demonstrations. It was addressed to the entire company (nationwide), but it included zero details re WTF would be the reason....

Working with a dude who worked at an iron foundry for about a year. Says he worked the overnight shift, and it was miserable. He came out of the Marines, so I’m inclined to believe him. Mortality-wise, I think it’s still firemen in the lead, although the politics of police work have got to suck—n...

Thankful daily that Mrs. FCP basically sat on me until I proposed. Knew instinctively she was/is “The One,” but left to my own devices, I would have avoided marriage for another decade. We will celebrate 25 years soon—together over half our respective lives at this point. Best decision of my lifetim...
