    This reminds me of when our last decrepit president would talk confidently about how he was leading in all the polls when literally everyone else knew better. [image: 1762805639946-img_8691.jpeg]

    @Mik said in The end is nigh: Trump? Islam? Geez, again there is plenty of to legitimately criticize, but killing the almanac? It couldn’t be that that type of information is at everyone’s fingertips, it had to be a conspiracy. Killing the almanac is just the start. Soon all farmers will be required to pay tariffs or observe Sharia Law, one of the two at least. Also, those crop circles. What about them? I foresee unforeseen things occurring on a regular basis or maybe even more so! You heard it here first.

    Kind of makes sense, is this related to the boomer inheritance trickle down wealth we'll likely see more and more of over the next decade or two?

    Yep. His one and only flash of likeability came when he read the top 10 list on letterman that someone else wrote for him.

    This reminds me a bit of when there is a school shooting. Yes, obviously, it's a tragedy and not sure how anyone could deal with it. But when my friends bring it up, I'm like... kids are 10,000% more likely to die while commuting to school, than at school. Yes I said 10,000% instead of 100x, but same-same. Where your seatbelt.

    @blondie said in I'm too nice, my wife is not: @89th .. Your updated kitchen is modern, yet your choices will endure through what’s trending now for a long time. Good design decisions. Thanks - our house has maple or medium cherry (?) brown wood trim along the baseboard, the doors, the windows, the cabinets, and nice millwork around the fireplace and stairs. Lots of neighbors have converted/painted it to a mostly white trim everywhere and white kitchen. It certainly looks nice, but I like the slightly darker wood throughout the house, feels warm to me and I'd imagine it's a design that'll come back into trend one day too, not that I give 2 sh!ts about trends. @Mik yeah in our old virginia condo we had a big single sink where we'd give the baby a bath. Very easy.
