She gets a pass for being old imo.

That's why I really love old ppl who are jolly. They "could" be *******s if they want to, but choose to go the right way.

^ is 50s old enough?

people who give passes to old people.

this exchange

me: shes an idiot
a different idiot: well shes nice!

neighbor installed a basketball net 5 feet from my house.

You need to go out in the driveway and give him one of these:

If you can post a picture - that shows how ridiculous, and not perfectly fine this is - and maybe even some sound with super annoying dribbling/backboard thumps, we could all get behind you on this one.

.

the term "basketball net" when referring, assumedly, to a basketball goal.

What if he only put up the net tho?

Who calls it a goal?

No, 75+ imo.

Then that should piss him off.

Either "hoop" or "goal" is acceptable.

Calling it a hoop is 1000000x worse than net.

Never in my life have I heard it called a "goal".

I know that's not directly addressing what you are saying but I believe goal or hoop are both fine but net is not.



Should someone put that within five feet of my house I see no need to be upset.

Hoop is the only acceptable thing to call it. Net is more acceptable than goal.

A basketball goal would be something like make 10 free throws in a row.

Well, the stat to track shooting accuracy is 'field goal' percentage.

Agreed. If someone said they put a net up, I would say why just the net and not the whole hoop?

Every store I go to has to ask me if I have a god damn rewards card. Seriously if I had a rewards card at every ****ing store I have ever gone to, I would need to carry a backpack with me just to store all of the rewards cards. How about just rewarding me for walking into your ****ing store? Or, if you can give .39 cents off something for somebody agreeing to carry one of your little id passes around, how about just offering that same deal to everybody and calling it a sale! Nobody gives a **** about becoming a rewards member at ****ing Walgreens. I am so sick of this corporate bull****, just to be able to get someone's email address, so they can send out more useless **** to get me to visit your store. 40 cents off swedish fish is never going to get me to come shop at your establishment!

Eddy,

Solid rant!

??? I find this to be inscrutable.

You're both right

He's talking about the stiff sturdy plastic baskets that are see through.

You're talking about something to carry stuff out to your car in. I use bags like yours but only when I'm checking out. I'd feel a little uncomfortable walking around a store with stuff in those, they're not see-through at all and I'd come across as shady.

walmart not having small plastic bags and making me manhandle a giant, bent to **** loud squeaky cart with huge chunks of rubber missing so there's no ****ing way people don't know I'm buying fungal cream for my gross feet pisses me off.


****ing Amazon.com. That's it, I'm signing up for prime. suck my ****ing **** sam waltons ugly ass kids

I completely agree with this. I feel like I'm being stalked everywhere, with an almost constant attempt to steal my personal info. Although, of course, I'm pretty sure I should feel bad about this, WE.

Yes and Im saying that I use the reusable carrier bags as my "basket" to put things in while shopping

Fair enough.

I have never once been questioned about it and would happily explain what Im doing and also be quite prepared to have to show that I paid for everything in it when leaving if I was stopped.
