  • Yeah. Just what the world needs... a bunch of neglected kids who will rob me in 15 years.

    Your parents should have taken assistance so you could have been weaned on something other than paint chips.

    Better yet, everyone should stop having kids so humans will die out. I'm not sure who will produce food for us or wipe our ass in the nursing home someday, but we'll get those sweet, sweet tax breaks in the meantime

  • Dude, I hear you. Trust me, I HATE being the sensitive tummy guy, but I hate alternating fits of constipation and turd monsoons for 72 hours even more.

    I always try to say mine is a sensitivity as opposed to an actual allergy and just to make a good faith effort. FWIW my friends who are full blown celiac just don't eat out unless it's a dedicated GF facility.

    My feelings on gf being trendy are mixed: in some cases some karens downplay the seriousness but at the same time, having more awareness leads to more options... like Jersey Mike's having gf bread. I had no idea before this

  • Yep. Same. I do pretty good for myself and I'm more fortunate than most, but I had to borrow money from my dad recently for a series of expenses I couldn't absorb in real time. I got the "you don't know how to budget" sermon. It felt as fun as you'd expect

    I said fuck it and gave him a list of earnings and expenses (I'm pretty frugal) and he was like, "oh..."

  • A friend of mine bought a house for $40k under market because a murder suicide happened there the year before.

    He said, "that sucks, but it's not like I knew them or anything"

  • Messiah is good

    Children is decent but spotty

    God Emperor is essentially a fever dream. I was like WTF while reading it but I love how off the rails it went.

    The last couple are kind of meandering and forgettable.

    The immediate prequels (house books) are a fun read and plotted well, but his kid isn't as good of a writer as poppa Herbert

    The legends books are garbage

    The last 2 books that tie up the original series (hunters and sandworms) are not good and are infuriating in that elements from the legends books are reintroduced as deus ex machina bullshit. I saw the twist coming halfway through the last book.

    I never read any of the other gap filler books that have been written in that universe. It got tiresome

    Everything up until God Emperor is worthwhile with the prequels being a fun appetizer. Read the synopses of the others if you need to know what happens
