I’m just wondering how many are (like me) at zero when it comes to inherited wealth. That’s why I set it low. Probably could have phrased it better.



The wife and I inherited debt from both sides.

I live mostly in SE Asia, so yeah all the time … and from my understanding, it was pretty commonplace here to wear masks (esp when sick) for a large portion of the population, many years before C19 .


Spent the year of 2000 in South Korea, wearing masks was very common in public. I appreciate it, doesn't bother me at all.

Entirely possible, depends on where one lives and how content one can he with less materialism.

The small town i grew up in is very safe and has very low COL.

Leaving Jackson, MS, most of the folks that required a wheelchair to get priority boarding are perfectly healthy when leaving the plane in ATL.

No offense, when someone unnecessarily handles a snake (or any wild animal), I always pull for the snake.

I love all 3 of my kids greatly, but one child is plenty. With one child y life won't change greatly. Kids don't get expansive until college
dang Amish! Looks like some WTs are onlookers though.

re: Stolen Checks via USPS

Posted by greenbean on 5/20/26 at 8:55 pm to
Most of these checks are stolen by postal employees/contractors/people breaking into mail boxes, so this a federal issue, not state or local. Federal Law enforcement is lazy and only wants to only investigate crimes involving huge money amounts.

It is an epidemic, in Jxn, MS, but everyone has learned not to mail checks.
Fortunately I was smart enough to get in the AF, so was never in the military. Did over 30 years, loved all of it. Getting a nice fat check and Tricare is all the thanks I need.

I don't feel comfortable getting thanks, that should be received for those who actually faced hardships like soldiers and marines.

Some navy jokes for good measure:

"Why does the Navy only issue powdered soap? Because it takes longer to pick up!"

"In the Navy, they say 'seamen' in every port, and they don't mean the kind with a flashlight."

"What's the difference between a gay cruise and a Navy deployment? The gay cruise has better food."

"As they say in the navy, you're not a man until you've need with a man"

"Why do Navy submariners go down for months at a time? Because they can't wait to see 100 guys go down and 50 couples come back."
Because we’re getting dumber as a society.

This. It’s funny to think back how excited I got over going to Pizza Hut or dad bringing home a bucket of KFC for dinner about once a month.

It was a huge deal if we had to go to Jackson for something and would eat at Red Lobster or Olive Garden. They were next door to each other and I always fought with my sister cause she wanted RL but I preferred OG. Usually ended up my dad and sister would be at RL and my mom and I would go to OG


the wife and I graduated from State in the early 90s and moved to Jxn in 95, we ate at that OG several times. Good times.

As kids, we ate out so rarely, each time was a special occasion.
why take a piss rather than leave one?

re: The Return of the Hut, Pizza Hut

Pizza Hut started out in the south in the 70s, for many small town southerners, it was their first introduction to pizza. Moving into the 80s, that was the place for family meals for an occasion slightly more special than a fast food trip.

The pizza is no better or worse than any other chain pizza.

Youngsters today don't understand that eating out for most 70s/early 80s kids was a rare and special event.
