Family is considering moving to New Hampshire

Posted by Boaty_McBoatface on 1/8/20 at 8:27 pm

My wife has a job offer and I’m looking. If we both land something, we are going to pull the trigger. We have a 3 year old boy. We are looking in the Manchester/Concord area but not actually IN either city. Looking for something in a small town close to either of those.

Anybody here spent a significant amount of time up there? Any suggestions?

The only folks who don’t see a problem with Louisiana are basic bitches and low IQ types. Generally, these are the people whose lives revolve around deer season, crawfish, and wood ducks on tailgates. Louisiana has some great hunting and fishing but we can’t keep banking on these same things forever while the state sinks further into the abyss. Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and others have passed Louisiana in quality of life.

I’m 31

Why does every product you buy now days want you to purchase a protection plan?

Posted by Boaty_McBoatface on 1/6/20 at 9:00 pm

Doesn’t any company stand by their damn product anymore? No. I don’t want a 2 year protection plan for extra money. Manufacture a product that you can stand behind. Why does it fall on the consumer to now purchase additional protection for YOUR product. Yes I’m mad and poor.

re: Anyone wish they were taller ?

5’8 and never had a problem in that department. It’s all about confidence. I had like 2 girls in college (out of dozens) that had an issue with my height and that’s because they were really short and just projecting their insecurities of being small onto the guy (me).

Even had this one chick who made it a point to point out my height at a football party as I was on our college team. She was like 5’1 (maybe) and Italian. Ended up spending the night in her dorm. Again, all about confidence. You could probably stand to lose some weight. 5’6 and 175 looks a lot taller than 5’6 and 200+

Say what you want about him but he was the only player on the offense that wanted to win that game.

Give it to Taysom Hill

Drew has been my favorite player in NFL history but it’s obvious that his arm isn’t there anymore. He’s rich and ready to retire. Draft some lineman, a big arse running back, and run a power run scheme with Hill. We ain’t winning shite with this roster. Also, let Kamara walk. Scared of contact. Let someone else overpay.

That’s the only business Louisiana can attract. Gas station casinos and bars.

My dad to tell me he was proud of me and a genuine look of happiness in my accomplishments. Never happened. Even when I joined the Marines and got back from a deployment, he was pretty meh about all of it. To this day, I can’t recall a time he’s ever told me he was proud.

re: If you had a job offer where you could choose between the Austin or Phoenix offices

Posted by Boaty_McBoatface on 1/2/20 at 6:58 am to BeepNode

I’d do Phoenix. I spent a year in Austin, and I can say that the place was probably a really cool place to live in the 90s and early 2000s but since it was ‘discovered’ by hipsters and SJWs, post 2010 the place was a nightmare when I was there in 2016.

Traffic was terrible, prices for housing/renting was through the roof. The mid-20s-mid 30s crowd of wannabes there are so pretentious and unbearable. A LOT of SJWs and that’s not a silly exaggeration. You can’t get away from the pretentiousness. All of them think living in Austin means they’re Matthew McConaughhey too.

Go to Phoenix. Do Flagstaff on the weekends. I drove to California a few years back and stayed an afternoon and night in Flagstaff and didn’t want to leave. I thought it was really cool. Don’t know much about Phoenix but Austin has been ruined by hipsters.

PBS video on Louisiana’s business/tax system.

I’m a conservative btw but there’s got to be an explanation for why Louisiana is so pathetic. If this video is wrong, how so? Seems pretty accurate and we convince ourselves that we aren’t being taken advantage of.

Catholic’s ability to defend some of the shite about their religion is just unbelievable. I’m not religious but damn am I shocked with how you seemingly intelligent, moral people continue to defend this kind of shite.

Re-districting priests after they’re caught dicking down kids, and completely fine with the cover-up. Continue to send your kids to these pedophile factories and maintain a holier than thou attitude.

I kind of hope they slow the storyline down from here though and build over several seasons. This is a show that could go easily 9-12 seasons. I’d hate to see them run through the entire story in 4-5 seasons. They’d be skipping so much material.

re: Anyone else had a crappy 2019?

Posted by Boaty_McBoatface on 1/1/20 at 8:54 am to A Menace to Sobriety

2019 helped me realize that my job is never going to pay me (or my colleagues) the amount we’re owed. We had a tremendous amount of turnover in 2019. They can’t hire decent employees to replace them because of low starting salary and keep hiring overweight losers, who have failed at previous careers, in order to fill what is supposed to be a somewhat physical role.

My wife is also a teacher, has a Masters, and makes 40k. The goal is to get the hell out of Louisiana with our 3 year old and never ever ever ever look back.
