I finally read this thread for the first time.

There certainly are some spicy takes in here.

Probably. At one time we had horses so a lot was pasture type land...nothing that we'd want to hay, but still the horses kept it down. we also had a couple acres of that we replanted in loblolly pines (we had 25 acres of loblolly pines harvested and replanted a few years back) and i wanted to keep the new stands fairly clear of brush. i don't know why. but we also had people come over quite a bit and liked keeping everything looking not too overgrown in the several acres around the house. and if we let things get overgrown where it used to be pasture, we'd see an increase in mice and snakes too close to the house. had both of those come in from time to time (another benefit of not being out in the country is you don't have to hear your wife scream in the middle of the night because she found a snake in the bathroom while she was sitting on the toilet).

i used to like the privacy and space but the isolation got a bit much along with all of the expense in keeping it up and the expense in keeping up the equipment to keep it all up. long driveway = lots of gravel plus tractor to help deal with washout, etc. my kids were excited about being able to order pizza and have it delivered. simple pleasures.

Oh I get it. Believe me I do. 

I've been on both sizes of this. In the city, on 2 acres,  now neither city, nor acres.  At least I'm at the end if a dead end road. 

I think I'd like 10-20 acres. But a an acre has to.be my truck shop and parking.  And I would develop it all.  One definitely needs to have a passion for it. Not for everyone. 

[pantherclaw]

Wouldn't develop it all...

 

Lol

If Charlotte agrees to help Tepper upgrade B.O.A. It should stipulate grass field for football. Unpopular to Tepper

Harris Teeter has the best pizza on a price to size ratio. 

Western bbq slaw beats traditional mayonnaise based slaw.

Tesla’s are crap compared to the new EV’s coming from Europe.

Nuclear is the cleanest, most environmentally friendly technology available for reliable, economical base load generation.  Change my mind.

Right.  For clarity, which commercial utility nuclear reactor is this?

Got it.  In the history of nuclear generation, including all countries globally, how many have produced a fissionable event, such as the mushroom cloud image you posted previously?  I’ll give you a head start; it rhymes with ‘hero’.

lol Dude, you take this way too seriously, 

 

You must work for Duke Energy. How's their plant doing?

Just setting the record straight.  Scarey image happens with nuclear weapons, not actual utility nuclear generation.  

I expected more push back on my claim of the superiority of Harris Teeter pizza.  Go figure.

Carry on.

Counting on Bryce Young to be a star QB out of the gate is concerning.

Coffee is disgusting and traveling is the most overrated activity on earth

- There’s nothing worse than going out to eat and being seated only to realize there’s live music. Now instead of talking to whoever I came with, our conversation gets drown out by music I don’t care about.

- Fireworks look the same every time we see them, yet I’m supposed to be excited every year to go watch them?? 

- Without Jerry Krause, there’s no MJ goat status

- There’s no X in the word “especially”

Fitterer is holding the team back.

Bryce Young is a ticket to a decade of mediocrity.

No QB in NFL history is worth what the Panthers gave up for Young.

QBs don't make a dynasty, they elevate a dynasty in the playoffs.

Corral will be no better than a mediocre journeyman QB.

4 out of every 5 undrafted QBs will make it to the playoffs when given at least 2 years of leading an NFL offense.

Ekwonu is an All Pro NFL guard performing as an average starting NFL LT.

The CMC trade will result in any success from the Panthers over the next decade being met with the 49ers and CMC keeping the Panthers being the best team in the NFC.

Frank Reich was not the offensive genius of the Philadelphia Eagles and will be a mediocre coach who will finish behind Ron Rivera and John Fox in Panthers history.

Brian Burns and Derrick Brown have hit their ceiling when it comes to run defense.

Evero and Capers will struggle to figure out Ridder, Carr, and Mayfield.

The Panthers have 0 playmakers on their team.

I believe all of these are unpopular. No different than my opinions on Gettleman, Beane, Newton, Ealy, Butler, Benjamin, Bradberry, Funchess, Mayfield, Rhule, Moore, Artis-Payne, Worley, Little, Grier, Gross-Matos, Bridgewater, Darnold, and R.Anderson over the past decade. No more arguments for my unpopular opinions that proved me right. Same attackers on my unpopular opinions now. They will be quiet when I am proven correct again.

Still waiting for the Panthers to get their act together and move toward being competitive contenders again like they did from their 2002 to 2013 roster builds. (2015 was carry over from these builds. The Panthers could have easily been a more dominant franchise.)
