I aspire to be the guy who says controversial stuff, sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, but never so far in either direction as to alienate one side or the other.
In addition, I hope to be just enough of a dick sometimes, that it verges on people not liking me, but also be agreeable/nice enough that people like me. That fine line of, not ready to be best friends or sing my praises, but not writing me off either.
You think our teachers form high school could put together a list of 20 kids they thought most likely to be “successful” and it would be accurate? Or nah?
@palmargiovanna No, Im going to say it’s based off choosing a goal/set of goals and making strides towards that goal. Be it, a career, a family, a lifestyle, etc or combination thereof.
Everybody on the ship with little kids and a wife complaining about being stuck out here. Guys...try missing all the good times with the homies. Missing Day-drinking/brunch with the boys? That’s something to be sad about
I’ll continue my rant, but acknowledging that I have to reason to complain, in that I still have a good job. But goddamn, the increase in wage just isn’t keeping up with the cost of living. And I want to complain about that. Am I.. liberal..? Or a conservative?
I actually make the same money as the AB I stand watch with did when he was a truck driver. IN 1987. HE COULD NOT SPEAK ENGLISH, and he made 100k a year, IN 1987! That’s the equivalent of 217k in 2021.
