    One of the rentals I’m trying to get into to contact me back so I can leave my house and finally get this divorce on the road.

    A reversal of the cuts my health insurance is making and further to have all of my healthcare paid for by the insurance I pay a ton of money to have. Especially hurts since the insurance company is my employer, or at least I used to. Now they have the same parent company or whatever they call it these days.

    I want to be able to buy out the entirety of my geeky/nerd knick knack store. But I most likely won’t because I’d feel cluttered with so many figurines and other stuff that I’d end up donating it.

    Obligatory impractical / intangible: Four decades of excellent, indefatigable mental health.

    Outlandish: The double glazing is overdue for replacing. (Follow-up: Someone to clean up the inevitable mess that would make.)

    Practical: Cotton boxers. I asked for slippers instead. (If this startles you from some kind of reverie, and the double glazing thing wasn’t a hint, I am British and middle aged. Slippers are a necessity.)

    Some day I’d love to be the owner of a Curta calculator, but considering the cheapest I’ve ever seen them is $700 I don’t think that’ll ever be a Christmas gift. A tax refund gift to myself perhaps one day, but certainly not a Christmas gift.

      Fuck me for wanting one a loong time ago when you could get a real old one for like 350€… but absolutely not having the money.

      What a masterpiece and a story too.

    I want my council tax bill paid. They didn’t take it for two years straight due to an administrative error - I even had a direct debit setup - but have only just now realised on their side and now they want all of it back at once. Paid off a big lump of it immediately but had to go on a payment plan where they take an extra £400 per month for the next quarter.

      I HATE how errors like this favor the company. THEY fucked up, but can just dump it all on you.

      yes they can argue that you shouldn’t have spent the money and should have noticed, but if it were reversed, they’d fight to not pay you and delay it most likely. people that don’t understand “shit happens” suck.

      Well he’ll never face criminal justice cuz he’ll either pardon himself or have his final Big Mac Attack - and then he’s replaced by Vance. My wish is for him to golf and tweet his way through another 4 years and hopefully the Dems get their shit more together.
