F*ck your in-laws. I wasn't in the buildings when it happened but I was that morning. My brother was on an airplane taking off from EWR and my girlfriend was at her office four blocks from WTC and also went through the WTC PATH station that morning. I watched the towers fall from the roof of the building I worked in. It was hours before I found my GF covered with WTC dust and to walk along with thousands of others trying to make our way home.

It was a f*ked-up day. Memories and emotions are funny - the first time it hit me was on the 5th anniversary. You didn't have to be stuck in the building to be upset about your experience.

You lost me when you called a whiskey that's $22/bottle "expensive"

Love me some Olga Raffault. Her 1978 Les Picasses was one of the first wines that made me say "hey! I like wine!" back in the early 1990s.

About an hour before the first plane hit, I was coming through the PATH station in WTC1. When it hit, I was at work ~10 blocks uptown. My GF was about 5 blocks from WTC in the other direction, where she worked. My brother worked there too - but that morning he was on a plane taking off from Newark.

So there were a lot of frantic phone calls that day.

They were probably better at the harassment when they were dating Anthony Jeselnik

Booze started making a comeback. Cocktails too, even though they were shit until good ones started coming back in the early-mid 90s.

you know it's a bad cable - get a good cable. 25' , 50' - run it temporarily where you don't want it just for the test.

1) Adam's disability level is severe, he requires round the clock care

... then YTA. Taking care of him is a more than full-time job.

I didn't think there were this many hornets in a nest. Do they have a complex social structure like bees do?

Understood - I was making a joke that everyone is an appetizer

Stern doesn't feel guilt about anything. Only resentment and defensiveness

ESH but IMO mostly you.

Your getting to tell people what to wear to your wedding goes as far as:

  • bridesmaids+groomsmen
  • no white or red dresses

You shouldn't demand your MIL (or anyone) coordinate their clothes with your theme.

Someone you aren't comfortable around imposing themselves on you against your wishes while you're in a vulnerable state isn't "help"

Don't feel bad for them. They've had a good run with jobs they only got because Stern's so cheap.

Why does it have to be wine?

I have a circle of wine enthusiast friends - we know each others' tastes and preferences and if i visit one for dinner, I bring a bottle we can drink then, and another I know they'll like that they can enjoy later.

But IMO it's silly for people who aren't familiar to try to buy wine for people who are. Would you buy a mechanic a wrench? He probably has all the wrenches he needs and also knows which ones he prefers.

You misspelled "app"

edit: I didn't really think he misspelled "app", I was making a joke that I guess didn't work

If anything, you're kind of an A for agreeing to keep Sierra's treachery secret at first. But glad you came around and the truth is out.

How anyone could be aware of how he treated Scott and ever be surprised at his shoddy treatment of anyone else, I'll never understand

The bump in the night gun is a P220 in 10mm. Right now the bump in the night rifle is a Kriss in .45. I like the Eotech sight on that one but I don't have much experience with others so I thought I'd ask the subreddit. But yeah, other than the iron sights all three I mentioned are bare. Will confirm the AR stuff tomorrow
