I haven't been to LA chicken in years so I don't really remember what it tastes like

Kinda similar to me. Growing up poor. Many meals consisting of just rice and some random condiment. Parents who only worked and never developed social skills (or they were too lazy, I don't know) so the idea of having guests other than close family a few times when I was young over was, otherwise, not really a thing. Actually got worse in the later years where Christmas would feel like just another day. Meanwhile my friends would tell about their almost Disneyland like fantasy Christmas with friends, family, food and all the gifts. I always pined for that sort of feeling but never got it. Oh well. Once I got into my early 20s and volunteered for UGM did that authentic feeling start to set in.

I started viewing life at a macro level (capturing the little details and intricacies) rather than a wide angle pano level (where everything looks beautiful from far away).

Force them to use the toilet the correct way, by sitting down to pee. House rules!

I forgot which thread it was where it randomly turned into guys talking about sitting down and pissing at home. Here we go again :lol

It's hilarious that people exist who stand up to pee and make a mess just because they're not the ones who have to clean it up KEKW

It's so bad people don't even invite men into their homes!

^ haha. We know where you stand…. Or don’t stand.


Once again, had this convo many times with large groups of friends. Sitting while peeing men are few and far between. But I’m one of them. Constant verbal abuse from being raised by Mom and Sister. lol. Saying that, women are just as bad. Women’s public washrooms are awful. They basicly stand with a 2 gauge shotgun with birdshot, vs an accurate semi auto. Lol

Had 35 people over for Xmas party and didn’t even have to clean bathroom after lol

Get those micro penises to sit down? Lol fuck like I don’t get it

At work there’s like an epidemic of people pissing on the floor where people are getting fucking chokeddddd about it. And as per my previous messages where I said I’m not one of those ones that sticks my whole body in the urinal was thinking is it me? Triple checked, nope lol. Sometimes it’s like somone dumped half a red solo cup on the floor. Fucking people

That’s why I dislike having peeps over. I don’t wanna be a dick about it but there’s bound to be splatter. Even with perfect aim.

I tried to make it more inviting to sit your ass down as my bidet is heated. But then I’m worried they might press a button for anal stimulation and then start enjoying it a bit too much.

I had one of her friends not come out of the bathroom for 10 minutes. But I did hear the bidet go on (this was at the old house where the walls are thin). The fuck was that bitch doing in there. By 10 minutes it’s just shooting cold water up your ass as the hot water tank has deleted already.

Some dudes don't wash their ass and dicks because its ghey

No chance they're cleaning their own pee

Theres something wrong with your pic QMX, but i cant figure out what it is

I feel like hondaracer is taunting us, "look at my spread guys, btw none of you were invited lol"

best avatar evar. its like the embodiment of revscene now.

RS = Retired Support group for middle aged men.

I gotta dust off my pointy hat and bleach some bedsheets before i can go.

i started sitting down at home when i pee, i wouldn't do it anywhere else though.
it just keeps your toilet and floor way cleaner especially if you are a big water drinker and go a lot like me. also its kinda nice, you sit and you don't have to think abt aim or cleaning after. also it kinda helps to have a bidet at home so you have something warm to sit on.

I’m glad my meat gets you feelin somthing :fullofwin:

Girls ain't perfect neither. If they get up too quickly before wiping it can dribble out and onto the seat.

And you think guys that usually stand up to pee are going to know how to shake properly it while sitting down? Fuck no! That hose is kinked the wrong way!

Even if it's your meat being feeled?

:inoutugh:

The entitlement of high earners (more than $150k/yr) calling themselves middle class - 92% of them said they were "middle class" (slide 10 in the PDF). Edit: Though in major cities $150k really CAN be middle class

going into 2024

80k is like getting by
120 some comforts, but financial pressure is definitely still real
i dont think anything less than 180 is considered cushy in vancouver (~10k usd/mo)

This is about right... I was right at $80k as a single person with a condo that was bought at like a 40% discount from current prices and I was just able to be getting by with no new cars (only drove old cars) and a couple of decent vacays and hanging out with friends.

I needed to get someone to live with me to feel any real breathing room though.

Can't imagine what I would have to do if my condo was bought at current prices on that income... eat instant noodles every day I guess.

Honestly with the way our taxes are set. Anyone with a basic salary job is middle class. I don’t really care what you make. It’s not until you can bypass taxes where you can really take advantage of the money you make.

i think just stating salary is not enough in vancouver, you have to state your living expenses lol.

you can make 120k but if you're renting a 2br downtown and spending 4k on that then that's totally different than if you bought 7 years ago for $500k and have a locked in mortgage at 2%.

At 80k you’d be making more than what, 80-90% of Canadians and you still have to live like your in poverty lol, awesome.

Don’t know how people do it

Lots of money discussions on RS these days and lots of low-key flexing, but also grounded discussions as well.

I don't work in private wealth or financial planning, but in a place like Vancouver, there are people who support their lifestyle through different means that are not necessarily illegal. It's the people who work salaried jobs with mortgages who are chumps and are feeling the brunt of inflation.

For example, take the proliferation of Teslas in this city. A Model 3 or Model Y is an expense we can't really stomach (because variable rate mortgage), which is why we drive old vehicles (8+ years). To get the max rebates on an EV, you need to make less than 80K, which basically excludes any working professional who is trying to make it in this city from accessing the rebate program. I guess it could be considered a success since there are a lot more EVs on the road these days, but the program's been a failure from actually supporting the people who should benefit from the program (i.e. actual middle class working people).

its a common discussion amongst everyone now. MONEY MONEY MONEY MOENY

doesnt matter if you have 2 cents to rub together or making 300k+ like the average fuck head at the ports, its all this talk of money that proliferates the lunch rooms, dining halls, etc. Its probably whats adding to all this pressure and why people are having mental problems.

Even the kids at mcdonalds. I drove up to the drive thru to grab a coffee frap and this kid asks me how i was able to afford the ratrolla.

I said dont get a history degree and go into trades.
Hes like youre in trades? im like nope.
Hes like so what degree do you have? i said history and philosophy degree. :accepted:

Then he looked at me like am a friggin moron. I guess that wasnt very helpful. I should have told him to just deal drugs.
