i know guys like this. they sit in the basement with all these ideas. they watch youtube videos of Gary Vaynerchuck and Grant Cardone and are like wow that is the way to hustle through life but in the end they just watch youtube videos and do nothing else. meanwhile their wives have decent jobs as nurses or what not.

I do have a friend who is single who makes marginal money doing medical deliveries. but he earns a crap ton selling sports cards. he may make more than i do. but its WORK. but he's like the key is to buy good ungraded cards, grade them and if you shoot for at least 6x your investment, you can do really well. and while its the new hotness now he's been doing this for 15 years.

Magic cards are like that,there is an unbox video where a guy was opening a 1st ed booster and a Purple Lotus was inside. The rarest card ever.

Now on to my rant,I had to get a PO Box as the meth heads in the apt next to mine are now stealing everyones mail no matter what it is.They got a ton of my Battletech and Amazon shit(clothes and pet products). I placed an order with Amazon today and they would not take a PO Box, for fucking printer Ink and a couple books. There is no locker/counter in the area. In the entire Quad Cities there is one and it is over in Iowa.

What did the kid burn down tonight?

Nothing major tonight, other than just a constant cycle of him running down to the basement and his dad chasing him while FIL and I hoping he would slip and fall

Family is taking the boy to an orchard where there is a park. BIL can’t go because there is a disturbance in the Atlantic that he needs to stay home and keep an eye on in case it impacts their drive home

This guy is like a TV show character.

I want him to tell my FIL that they are staying a few extra days due to this disturbance. That will be fun.

How about starting with a podcast with the FIL and RFDC?

Me: “so I hear BIL and family may be staying a couple extra days.”

FIL “oh I assure you they are leaving tomorrow....he is lucky I haven’t buried him in the back field, so they will be leaving no matter what”

When my son was 17 his doctor told him he was underweight. He was pretty scrawny.

You don’t tell Dr. Ken Jr. I stuff like that. He internalizes that. So for 5 years he’s been working out minimum 4 days/week with protein shakes and fruit smoothies.

He’s 21 now and looks like a freaking superhero. So much so that he doesn’t fit in any suit that isn’t custom-made.

So that was 4 hours today getting him fitted for a suit that his arms will fit into.

That is awesome but possibly wrong thread.

Brag for him.

Complain about sitting through a custom fitting that I had to pay for. I got a $15 shirt on clearance.

Tonight’s adventure

Kid craps his pants again and this time he took it out of his underwear and rubbed it all over himself and the bed he was laying in. BIL gets back to him to deal with it, and he is trying his best to take care of it without FIL knowing about it. Not possible. I can’t believe he didn’t kick him out of the house tonight. The fireworks show was pretty good. “You stupid son of a bitch! The kid can’t help it because you have created this monster.”

There is part of me that finds if funnier if he actually said "son of a patriot" vs the censored word being turned into patriot so that's how Im going to think of it.. Poor kid.

Yeah I started to edit it but then I thought the patriot part was pretty good
