[QUOTE=NewDude;5147317]Unfortunately, far to many Americans welcome oppression, and some like it if it's targeted towards people they disagree with.[/QUOTE]Oh yeah, he was really oppressed. The dude was drunk and asleep at the wheel in the drive-thru at the Wendy's. The cashier called the police on him, who were simply trying to do their job and arrest him. He resisted arrest, struck an officer and took their weapon, and he's oppressed! Yeah, your attitude is a big part of what's wrong with this country. That dude could easily have killed your mother driving in the state he was in. I wonder how you would have felt about him then, and if you'd still be defending him as "oppressed", or if you'd be calling for his head on a platter.

And for Gamecocktoo who says they should have called for backup if he was so dangerous, when was their time to call for backup when he was cooperating right up until the time he resisted arrest, struck them, and took their weapon? How does your statement make any sense whatsoever? That's exactly the point- these situations escalate in seconds, and there's no time for second-guessing. The guy goes from joking and being cooperative to being violent and dangerous. That's how people get killed.

[QUOTE=JMAbacus;5146965]Sure this happens quite often but every situation is different. I cut my wife off from sex 4 years ago because her weight had escalated (she's around 4'11" and 135). I had asked and encouraged in every way possible to get her in shape (this was 18 years into the marriage. She was fine for the first 15). Her response was to like it or lump it. Mentally, I checked out at that point. She apologized 50 times and tried everything (except losing some weight) to return to a normal physical relationship. The only way to survive the situation without a divorce was to tell her I could no longer perform, I am impotent. So I take Testosterone weekly, HCG, Viagra as needed and also Trimix. I simply say the injections are for anti aging. So I do my thing, and she lays around and bitches that we don't spend time together. Cheaper to keep her and then move into my final phase in which I won't have any urge and will cease all the running around. Sure I'm not the only one.[/QUOTE]Damn that's just sad a pathetic. Not calling you that but it seems the repercussions of having half your shit taken and barely being allowed to see your kids especially if she is vindictive if you have kids got men throwing your manhood away. That's just sad and just reinforces the need to properly vet women before committing. My new motto is fuck around and date and when you meet someone that is cooperative and no drama and brings something positive to your life and continues to do so even while you both are fucking other people and honest about it. Then after she's proven herself for a year then you can make her your girlfriend whether you choose monogamous or not up to what you want. Never what the ***** wants. If she don't agree with anything she can hit that door. You got to have the mindset that no matter if you met the butch yesterday or you been with her for 30 years if she chooses to leave in whatever fashion you don't even pause. Shit sounds easier than it is but if y'all stop putting a *** on a pedestal and willing to walk out on anything your not truly comfortable with then your most likely to find a half decent woman that you can be happy with. But never marriage. Can't trust a *** farther than you can see her. And with how manipulative and sneaky they are, they got no problems doing shit right in your face with the advent of technology. But donr give up bro. It's simple. Tell her your thinking of divorce. Depends on if you want to take the risk of her calling your bluff. Tell her your not attracted to her weight and that's not who you married and she need to change or be ready to gtfo. I'm sure you won't do this seeing as your going to great lengths fucking with your biology. But is it really healthy? Are you really happy? If you are then that is completely your decision to make and fuck anyone who judges it. Just hope you aint lying to yourself. Also if your not willing to put your foot down about something as simple as her weight which is easily fixable then how can you expect her to respect you with anything else. Your doing all this to avoid divorce and I'm sure you can read many stories where shit still ended in divorce. She apparently wants dick. She eventually going to get it from somewhere. Maybe from someone she respects while losing respect from you. See how easy this can lead to divorce. Just food for thought. Best wishes.

I think they pull this same bait-and-switch in the trucking industry. I see so many semi trailers with billboards on the back saying "Make $78,000 your first year with us" but the noobs find out it's more like 37 K and then flame out in a year. And the trucking industry wonders why there is so much turnover.

Autonomous trucks need to become a real thing within 20 years. Humans are not meant to be strapped into a cab for many hours driving 80,000 pounds down the highway like a guided missile.

[QUOTE=Airmantroy;5146800]I am in fact a certified welder, my last job being employed by someone other than myself was with a major foreign manufacturing company, I was the only certified welder in my assembly department. My starting pay was $28/ hr, when I left I was at $34/ hr plus full company paid benefits, 100% match on 401 K up to 15% of my annual salary and more approved overtime than I could work in 2 months time. A certified underwater welder with 2 years experience is going to be upwards of $100/ hr, so your rationale of $150/ hr isn't really that far fetched, that type of job is extremely skilled, NOT in very high demand and you may go months without work. With my certifications currently, I can pretty much walk in to a place that needs a precision welder and command $25-30/ hr, but those jobs are getting harder to find. Add to that the fact that I am over 50 and the realization that I can't do what I did 15 years ago (physically) and the market gets small. Now, these colleges are telling these kids today that they can make $100-150 K a year, the kids get all excited and go out applying for jobs and expect $40 hr, with zero real world experience and pretty basic skills, they get offered $17/ hr and they thumb their nose at it or take the job and start looking for another job immediately. So yeah, noobs have unrealistic expectations because some porn star out there said she made half a mil last year. And giving blowies doesn't require any talent (in their minds).[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=PunkedLife;5146601]Most women that get married aren't truly attracted to their partners. They see you as a stable mate since that guy who gets her wet and fucks her like she likes, well that guy isn't husband or father material. Plus he doesn't want her basic ass because he has so many better options. Then here you come with your mediocre game, if you even have any, that dries her pussy up but she let's you hit a few times, you know after making you wait after a few expensive ass dinner dates. You think she made her first choice wait? Nah he was busting her cheeks on date one. Probably didn't even take her on a date. Then yall get married after 6 months because your so happy someone picked you or maybe you think that's the best thing you can get. Yall sex life dwindles. She keeps telling you she really isn't into sex that much. All the kinky shit you want to do. Well she isn't that type of girl. But in all actuality she isn't that type of girl with you. I've heard stories where guys found out their wives were giving up the booty to their AP when she refused to do anal, or only did it on special nights with her husband. That's just one example. Then yall have kids and then the sex becomes non existent for one excuse after another. You really think women don't know men live for sex. Most men want to fuck at least if not multiple times a day. No they just clearly don't give a fuck about your needs. You already have them ask they need. A stable relationship or marriage. Kids. Nice house. She gets the new car while you drive the old one. Like WTF are your balls? And she knows she has all the negotiating power because you don't want to leave. You still love a woman who clearly gives two shits about you. It you know that if you leave, her and the courts are going to DP you with a strap on. So what incentive does she have to give you some pussy? If all these mature women yall keep finding now apparently want to fuck, you think your wives are any different? You really think they aren't into sex. Unless they have some hormone imbalance. No they want to fuck. They just don't want to fuck you because they don't respect you.[/QUOTE]Wow, you guys is jaded, LOL.

But seriously, sorry to hear about some of your situations. I've been married for almost 32 years now. And although there have been ups and downs, it's been a good marriage. Granted, I like sex more frequently than she does, but we actually have some great sex.

Wishing you all success in your searches!

Anyone ever receive a threat like the one below? I'm about to write them back and tell them to bring it, to just give me about 5 minutes so I can pull out my arsenal.

"My name is Pedro Antonio Montoya, member cartel CJNG and pimp of the domestic sexual service house I've been calling you cause you've been speaking to one of my girls which offered you her service and you only made her lose her time. I've implanted you a fee which you must pay. If you don't pay you and a couple of your family member will lose their life. Don't try to block me or turn off the phone because I have your address and your family's too. Call me to work something out in a good manner. If you want to avoid a massacre of your family. Try to avoid the bloodbath for your good. Sir. You have to make a $2,000 payment for wasting my girl's time and the company my girl works for. Believe me you're in serious trouble with my organization, don't try to do any more silly cooperate so that everything goes well and neither you nor your family are in serious danger of death?

Congrats to Warnock for becoming the 1st blk Georgia senator.

Ossof is on a roll, though I don't believe in his plan.

More stimulus incoming for those who need it, I guess.

Corporate welfare vs welfare for the "commoners".

What does the board have to say?

Do not wait for a reply.

Immediately go to the next level. Again, do not wait for a reply.

Repeat as necessary until you are taking to the FBI.

It was from a WhatsApp ad I had responded to. Ain't no one coming to get you. I told them to bring it. No one showed up wanting to play.

Warnock is a thug want to be just ask his ex wife and Ossoff has a wife and kids that look nothing like him but really do favor her personal trainer.

[QUOTE=Worf359;5149356]Warnock is a thug want to be just ask his ex wife and Ossoff has a wife and kids that look nothing like him but really do favor her personal trainer.[/QUOTE]LOL, ossof definitely looks like a beta-male cuck.

I'm curious though. Why do you say Warnock is a wannabe thug? What did his ex wife say that was so detrimental?

"Hi, I'm busy fucking your mother in the ass so I don't have time for your shit. She loves it, so you should be happy for her!

They never go further. They're usually and-word scammers from Ghana or Nigeria, but some have "coordinated teams" in NYC, LA and other large US cities. If I were the Pres, I would give their elected officials 60 minutes to stop that shit or smart bomb them into oblivion.

If their message is a monetary scam, your local Secret Service office will sometimes get interested, but local LE and the FBI will do nothing.

I really did want to go. I didn't for a couple of reasons. I couldn't get Guarantees that we would be burning down a Wendy's or maybe a police precinct or setting up an autonomous zone somewhere around the capital. I wasn't guaranteed that I would be able to loot all the Nike, hair weave and big screen tv's I could carry, that along with a work force here in the northern suburbs that really think they should be paid for playing on their phones kept me from all that fun. Hey the 20th is only two weeks away. Just maybe.
