i have officially lost my mind
 reward given for it's safe return...

that said, i've got a problem.

i've been unemployed since last november. the first two weeks were cool. slacked off, caught up on my tv, played lots of WoW. but after that, it got old. i'm still getting my benefits and food share, but the one thing i am not getting is a freakin' job. the field of graphic design is over-saturated in the midwest. the only jobs i see advertised are contract work or part time. i've applied for damn near all of them, and i've gotten squat.

so i've decided to go back to school. i'm going back to school to hopefully become a chef. i am planning on getting a 2-year degree from my local tech school, along with a cert in baking and pastry making. after that, i will hopefully land SOME type of work that will allow me to move and finish up a 4-year bachelors in culinary arts.

now for the problem: my parents. granted i am an adult, but they were cool enough to let me move back in after my job went boom and are helping with my bills. i am expecting one HELL of a fight from them, since i'm overweight, they'll give me the "you're too fat" or "it's a bad idea, all that temptation," types of arguements... plus, before i switched to graphic design, i took a class in basic cooking and failed it.... ok i was young and stupid, now i'm old, and hopefully less stupid.

i'm discussing the issue with two of my friends, who both know my parents and how they'll react, i'm hoping to get some ideas on how to soften the blow.

advice, vibes, or alcohol is appreciated at this point....

Sniff...

Sniff...

What's that smell?

It smells like...

LOSER!

If you failed a basic cooking class then you're probably to stupid to be able to walk.  I doubt you got any smarter with age.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

I got a twenty that says the parents are just as moonbatty as the child.  Now the fat loser kid is back home in it's second childhood (or just a continuation of the first), that's karma baby!
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

14. I'm curious.
 Would it make any difference if he got it for free? And if so, why?

And it's outta here!

16. We have two children to support.
 Nearing college age.

If he is spending money for sex
it would be a deal-breaker for me.

PLUS, he hasn't worked full-time
for over 7 years and I pay ALL the
bills.


Yes, I'd divorce him, no discussion.

It would seem that the flatulent DUmb**** needs to divorce her freeloading "significant other" at the first opportunity.

She's only concerned about the money, because that takes away from her. He ain't sleeping with her so she ain't missing anything that way. Would sleep with one of the Dummies?
