I am lucky now because we just moved from Pasadena, CA to Country Sanford, NC. We used to have almost everything within a 5-10 minute drive, or just basic stuff maybe a short 5 minute walk down the street. Now we can't do that because live about a 10 minute drive to the first has station and a 15 minute drive to the local grocery store. 

 

So this all means that we will save some money because my wife can't just step out if the house when she wants to walk to the store  

Same way here in NC as well.

It doesn't work that way here, 10mins to the nearest convenience store and 30 to the nearest grocery store, somehow I usually leave the list behind and buy tons of stuff 'just in case' 😂😂😂

I would rather have that then go to store for 1 dank thing you forgot just because it's down the street.

I do that far too often when I think I have something but dont.  At least with hubs in OKC for 6 weeks i can meal plan just for me and get it all done in a day, including dinner!  Well i have to cook dinner a few times but some food just doeant keep after its cooked for more than 3 or 4 days.

Not much to work with there....

Hey don't you have a fat sister in law or something? 

A broken leg? A crazy wife? A piece of #### car? 

We like to make fun of people from all over the world, specially Arkansas...

And  Poland. 

China

Canada

England

Japan

Holland

Etc...

If I made fun of that I'd be racist. I just make fun of my fellow Arabs..

 

And hey! How dare you talk about my sister in law. She is an amazing cook! I still remember the first time I met her and had a beef stew with corn bread that was the best I have ever had until I found out that she cooked with whiskey. 

 

I freaked out because I don't drink, but learned later that when it's cooked it's fine. 

 

 

Talking about financials:

My wife and I has one thing that's sort of becoming a family tradition. We sit and figure out the monthly expenses once in a while then have a commitment of providing half of that to our joint account. These expenses include everything even services subscriptions, like Netflix.

 

Whatever is left in the paycheck of either one is their own money. Spend it the way they like. But we are generally responsible. Sometimes we shame each other I'm a funny if someone spent too much in a silly thing. No hard feeling. Life is simple.

okok...we got something here, we make fun of the Taliban too.

In fact, my Taliban friend (Who represents the permanent mission of his country to the UN) just sent me some incredible pastries for the new year. 

No you wouldn't be racist, feel free....

This is a political incorrect thread, like the way the internet was 2 decades ago. 

We'll tell you to go back to where you came from in a sec.

In fact, I think I've told everyone here to go back to where they came from.

#### now I have to go to HD tomorrow...

I hate to go all the way to HD, just to get a 5 dollar item. 

I could replenish my supply of road salt, but I bet they're out of stock. 

This is where Amazon prime comes in handy...

The thing is Taliban are not Arabs.

 

I have a question for you since you have good potential of funny content. Does the A in Arabs make you think of tents?

1- Hey some Talibans are Arabs....

2- Nuh uh, I think of Abu Dhabi...

Financials here are easy. I ignore them the Hillbilly deals with them. 

 

If I want something I tell him he buys it. But I will admit I'm easy and not demanding or a big spender to begin with. I love sales. 

 

Since I like ignoring the finances I also would never go on a spending spree. Unless he lets me loose in the popcorn store or sends me out to buy halloween candy after halloween. But that is his doing
