Why I hate Christmas/Disciplining your kids/Worlds Best Beer/Golf

Wife and kids get Christmas Decorations out... don't clean up boxes in garage despite my asking multiple times...

Wife, who is driving and parking challenged, parks her new Kia in the middle of the driveway last night because she can't park it in the garage where it belongs.

16 year old backs his Jeep out this morning and doesn't see said Kia, destroys passenger side rear door of Kia... not surprisingly, Jeep doesn't have a scratch.

Kids crying, Wife crying... Kia needs body work and I'll be out probably $2 Grand.

I need some Worlds Best Beer and a round of Golf.

It is worth noting that I did not get upset/yell/scream/kill anyone this morning. I was actually really calm. poo happens and to be honest I'm more pissed at my wife for not cleaning out the garage and parking like an idiot than I am with my son for backing into her car.

So Huddle, do I discipline the wife or the kid?

spank her. that's what I do when my wife leaves stuff in the garage. she has no problem wrecking it cuz its outside, but I get an earful for not putting dishes away or leaving a little facial hair around the sink.

So this must be a universal thing... that's a mirror image of my household.

A plastic wrapper on the table beside my chair in the living room BLASPHEMY!!!

27 boxes, paper, and wires everywhere in the garage for 3 weeks... no problem.

Mine will work in the yard, I'll give her that... and she will get out there in the garage, but it takes some prodding.

That's why pisses me off about this... had I got a bunch of stuff out and not immediately cleaned it up, I wouldn't have heard the end of it... now we're literally paying for her ignoring me.

I would be quick to point that out. A lot more of my thoughts are spoken now compared to 5 years ago.

LOL my brother has been married for 25 years. He told me once "you know how you see old couples not giving a poo what they say to each other? Its like that now. fug biting my tongue anymore" :D

Yeah, I did say that this morning... I pointed out to her that although it was my sons fault because he was driving, that if the garage was clean and/or had she not parked right in the middle of the driveway, it would not have happened.

She said to stop fussing at her, and I told her I wasn't fussing, but simply pointing out the obvious.

What's done is done... just ticks me off that it was avoidable on both ends of it. Money out the window.

how do you not see a parked car?

make them both mow lawns to pay for it.

Oh no... he was certainly at fault... I'm not disputing that. He didn't look where he was going.

There was the car on his drivers side and the basketball goal on the other... he is not used to her car being where it was and probably was worrying more about the goal than anything and hit her car.

I'm hoping that he'll take this as a lesson about making sure the way is clear prior to backing out. Use the mirrors and LOOK.

My wife uses my garage as somewhere to put anything & everything she wants out of the house. Tired of it being in the house? Out to the garage.. Fortunately thats when I either get rid of it or put it away where its supposed to be. I "clean" my garage once a month for poker, so it works out...

S, Im down for the 12-pack over 18 holes... I'll get the beer, you get the putt-putt....

Sorry about your Kia...

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?

      If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
