Yeah I know there were some rant threads over the years grinds my gears and whatever. I don't think any of them were that happening to dig up. I probably made one of them honestly. Whatever.

I figured if we could rant somewhere we'd be more docile creatures in the rest of the forums.

Where do you live in Cap Hill? I don’t live far (Speer) and I have 2 extra spots if you’re ever in a pinch. Also my part of town seems to have more lax enforcement than Cap Hill.
NickSkisGoodLiving in Denver Cap Hill the parking people are always up my butt about any little thing, today they're trying to run me $100 for not having a monthly tab sticker on my registration sticker ... I've been plotting ways to get back at them like putting an "I ski in jeans" or other embarrassing bumper sticker on their enforcement jeep..

Anyone else know how I should stick it to em short of slashing their tires?

My cat is dying and his GI tract is part of the issue. Literally not absorbing any nutrients. He took a shit the last two days that cleared out the entire first floor of my house, not kidding. I had to open the screen door, windows, and spray febreeze. So over cats especially this one who refuses to cover his shit

genuinely tweaking about money lately. car insurance jumped $30 for no reason, agent just said it was a normal adjustment, shopping around to try to get a better rate. have to get an oil change and tire rotation this weekend and know its gonna be spendy, I should really figure out how to do it myself/find someone who can. Feels like I need to be working 2 jobs minimum to be able to afford anything

Super easy to change your own oil and rotate tires. I do all my own maintenance. If you need any help should me a message. More than happy to help get your going.

It happened to me too. Car insurance is up like 25% nationwide in the last year
Insurance as a whole is fucked. A bunch of major companies aren't writing new policies in California and Florida. Costs are way up everywhere else too

Mine seems to go up every time.
My water/sewer bill went up this quarter even with less use than last quarter. Stupid inflation. But yet at work we got a whopping 2% raise which for me was a grand total of 37¢ And they say that's adequate? Not even close to match cost of living these days.

SofaKingSickbe sure to make him comfortable at the end of his life though :(, you don't have to get another one but do right by this one

Let me add that he's ruined 3 couches with piss (one expensive nice leather couch we were gifted), peed on my ski bag, peed on my ski pants and jacket, peed all over my basement and guest rooms to the point we have to close 75% of the doors in the house (for years), and periodically shits outside the clean litter box? Cats track litter everywhere. Doesn't cover his poop. Pees against the side of the box so it dribbles down the outside. Is always on the counters and tries to get into cupboards for food. Almost killed my dog 3 separate times by knocking stuff down for him to eat. Eats all my house plants and succulents. And is an expensive vet bill to reveal absolutely nothing...

I don't mind cats but IF I ever have another, it will be indoor/outdoor or strictly outdoor.


My dog is an ass too tho. He killed my European Weeping Beech when he was a puppy. Haven't been able to find one since.

Edit: I grew up with cats and I swear at the end of their lives they find a way to make you hate them. One cat would vomit on my bed every morning. Another shit in my closet. Cats are trippy af but damn are they dirty.

Not really, but i would say I'm close-ish to being autistic. Don't have diagnose and i have no idea why is has never been tested.

And i enjoy physics and sometimes math classes so i don't really want miss them.

Groomed all of main park and get stuck rebuilding a ton of the features. I mean I could have just skipped them but it grinds my gears to see rails leaning or no that a rail needs snow pushed and has for days.

People are hyped to build but skimp on maintenance for sure sometimes. Good crew i just hate rebuilding shit you can tell has been skipped over for a while.

Still a decent night just full on. Was tired af but kept rolling and got a lot done.

It's spring so its whatever been hot and shit melts for sure. But wish people would push snow up to shit or fix the leaners more often.

Love me some spring laps though!

i didn't hear you say you'll look past the issues and be a caring owner. the cat doesn't do things to piss you off on purpose man it's a cat and you're responsible for it. i know it can be frustrating but you're an adult you can handle it and be caring

You can do those things yourself soooo easily, i’m guessing you’ve got an older car so even easier. Youtube is your friend.

I mean this in the nicest way possible.....but I'm so burnt out on working in a woman dominated field lmao.


So much cattiness, cliques, gross comments/bullying and just stupid drama. Like holy shit ladies you are in your 30's/40s/50s act like it.


It is really funny though because there is such a difference in the women that made this their career from the get go, (they're super chill 99%) of the time.....and the nursing school dropouts/fired or retired nurses. The latter are always the drama queens starting shit like they are in high school still.

It's honestly pretty funny/just so cringe to watch from the outside. Super happy my team is actually mature and I don't see this much on the day to day.

I was planning to spend the next month getting sendy in the slush and really working on my yard but now it looks like I'll be mostly stuck inside, trying to avoid doing anything with the right half of my body
