discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 17d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 15/04/14 12:55 PM Share Posted 15/04/14 12:55 PM (edited) Also my folks were never together my entire life (except dad stayed with mum and I on home detention for a month or 2 after driving unlicensed too much and getting thrown in the slammer...that was a weird feeling having them both under the same roof at 17). They were always civil to each other and I knew they both loved me. I spent a year or two with one and then the other, usually when things got tight for mum financially I'd head off to stay with the old man and step mum/step sister. Worked well I think, I don't imagine living with parents that argue with each other all the time would have been as good for me (or them). Kids pick up on that stuff very easily and I'm sure it colours their own relationships years down the line.It would only be a risk if you thought the other person would take the kids and split to another state or something, not sure how I'd go if I was facing that. I'd certainly be on here asking for advice! Edited 15/04/14 12:56 PM by -SteveR- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just have to try your best to be good to your friends and trust they will be to you too.Also a quote I quite like, points out you don't have to expect to make the right choices the entire time:"Experience is the hardest teacher. It gives the test first and the lesson afterwards" Edited 15/04/14 03:44 PM by -SteveR- 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second time my boss was with me and he almost wet himself at my over-reaction. If it happens again it'll be like the episode of Rake where the cock hits the button at the lights after he already clearly has. Inconsiderate stupid rude fckers need some educating.

Inconsiderate stupid rude fckers need some educating. There's a certain amount of public transport common sense processes and unspoken (and unconsciously agreed-upon by the vast majority) rules.

Lots of problems at the moment hence no update on the cruise as of yet. Not sure how confident I'll be driving it up there if I haven't had enough time to iron out any potential bugs.

The car in front of Merc wants to turn right so Merc dives left. I have to brake. Not flat out but with some force. I then sound my horn. He gives me the finger and speeds away. I wanted to unspeakable things to him. Rude arrogant old f*ck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
