  6. FIVE RULES TO REMEMBER IN LIFE: 1. Money cannot buy happiness - but it's far more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than on a bicycle. 2. Forgive your enemy - but remember the idiot's name. 3. If you help someone when they're in trouble they will remember you when they're in trouble again. 4. Alcohol does not solve any problems, but then, neither does milk. 5. Many people are alive only because it's illegal to shoot them.

  11. I raced for a couple of seasons and although I loved it, my desire to race Moto X anymore is long gone. I do miss trail riding though but so much has changed since I last did it that it just isn't worth it anymore. Needing insurance, plates, ownership, annual trail pass, etc, and the fact most of the old riding haunts are no longer available, I've packed it in and will likely never ride again. Lack of buddies to ride with is also a factor as most, like me, also gave it up. Physically, I think I could still do trail riding, thankfully, but snowmobiling will have to do.

  13. Your utopia does not work. It never has and it never will. The reasons are obvious to anyone with even the slightest bit of real life experience. Its not just my lifetime that this will never happen, it’s yours too. I will live another 35 years. You may live another 40. Your form of socialism will be no closer to reality when I die as it will when you die. You can take that to the bank

  15. Nice. Turns out the whole thing started because my brothers brother in law pinched some girls ass, and it turned out to be one of the bouncers girlfriends. Several went after him, then my brother got involved, and then me. The brother in law broke his hand punching at the bouncer through a window pane, and he and his twin brother ended up getting arrested over that deal. My brother and I just screwed outta there when we heard the sirens. Had to meet my wife later for dinner, showed up with one shoe on. She was not impressed.

  20. I hated school and just did enough to get by. I knew 4 year college wasn't for me. A high school science teacher once told my mom and dad at parent teach conferences something along the lines of "if I was teaching auto shop classes or a class about fixing and riding dirt bikes and motorcycles , your kid would be a 4.0+ student. He's bored with what I'm trying to teach him and just doesn't care. He could care less about what is in those school books I can't get him to get his head out of those car magazines. He will be successful in life tho one day, because he is very focused on what he is into". I barely graduated because of classes that I absolutely cared nothing about. But I made it thru and did graduate with my class. Worked and partied that summer. I also took a test to become an auto mechanic apprentice thru a program that Chrysler dealers were doing in that same summer of '91. I aced everything, but the math part. I hated math. It was one of my worst subjects. One that almost kept me from graduating. I had to go to night school to get a math credit so I could graduate. I got a C- , but it was all I needed so I didn't care. The guy in charge of that program told me "you scored very high in everything, but the math is killing you. Go take a math class at community college this fall and come back and test again in the winter and you'll be in no problem". So I enrolled at MCC in a math class, a blueprint class and one other, I forgot what it was. Again, I hated math and just didn't do good in it. Was to busy trying to bang my buddies sister at the time too That had a lot to do with it as well. I ended up dropping the math class and the other class I forgot what it was. I aced the blueprint class, but that didn't matter. Winter comes along and I know I'm not passing that test again, so I didn't even bother taking it again. I ended up at the recruiters office. After about 2 months , I ended up enlisting. I was off to boot camp in the spring of 1992. I needed to get away and figure out what I wanted to do with my life. Best thing I ever did for myself. Did my 4 years , and grew up A LOT. Got out and worked in construction for a while. Went to work for a company that did prototype work for GM. Was supposed to be hired to train as mechanic, but they fucked me around , so I quit and went back to construction. Got a call from Ford about a year later and took a job in production. Roughly two years after that I took the apprentice test. Passed and waited to be called for the trades I selected. I finally got called and got on the program at 30. I knew unless I wanted to sling iron the rest of my life, I had to buckle down and do good and pass these classes. I aced almost all my classes. Only one I didn't was an electrical class for non electrical trades. Guy teaching it was a total dick and put a bunch of stuff on the mid term and final that wasn't supposed to be on it. I ended up with a C- in that class. Ended up finishing with a 3.86gpa. Not bad for someone who almost didn't graduate high school. I also have to add that I aced Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Physics. 4 classes that I dreaded and feared they would keep me from graduating because I hated math so much. Lucky for me I had white privilege on my side tho to help me passes those classes. My dad had to quit school in the 7th grade to go to work full time to help his mom pay the bills after his dad died. He was drafted into the Army. Did 2 years. Got out and moved N to Michigan where the auto industry was hiring like crazy. Got a job at a small tool and die shop. Did an apprenticeship there and got his journeyman's card in tool and die. Got hired into Chrysler shortly after and did 39 years and retired very comfortably. One of my best friends (who is a a little older than me) dropped out of high school after the 11th grade. And still has never went back and got a diploma to this day. He went to work for a couple of different jobs, working multiple jobs. He ended up in the building trades (like his dad). Worked for a couple of different builders. He eventually got his builders license and has built many homes on his own. Worked off and on for other builders and he still does some on his own every now and then (he helped me GC with mine) He went to work as a superintendent for a very large local builder for about 6-7 years ago. The homes they build start in the $1M+ range. He's built houses for several members of The Detroit Red Wings, Tigers, and Lions. Good thing both of those guys had white privilege on their side too like me

  21. MC makes a thread about his own life. Swallowing lies daily. Its pretty easy to see who is brain dead around here.

  23. The only privilege they have is being born in America. The rest was up to them. And they embraced it. I said to you a couple years ago, if things weren’t working out for you, its up to you to change it. Things weren’t working out for me 5 years ago and I completely changed careers. Now its working out awesome. If an old fuck like me can do it, no reason you can’t either, instead of wasting your time and wallowing in this hatred of the capitalist system.

  24. I am slowing letting go of my fight with denying that my own abilities are perishing. I think it's a good thing from mental standpoint. While my mind is willing and able, my body just isn't. I spent that "money" in my younger days...and didn't spare a cent doing it.

  31. You know nothing about the truth. Your utopia is nothing more than a dream. It will never happen in your lifetime. You should be preparing your children for a life of capitalism. That is all you or they will know in their lifetime. No one is going to murder the rich and take their property. That fantasy will never materialize. Work hard and follow the rules. You will go places in life.

  32. And most boomers and Gen Xers would have chosen to not hire the kid because of preconceived opinions of millennials, yet in reality he is no different then when they were younger.
