“His girlfriend was out of town and it had been a while for me so it was a sure thing.” Girl, you can spend five minutes in your local bar and have a sure thing. You don’t need to drive 3 hours an be a homewrecker for it.
And if you’re going to a river that’s actually worth traveling to, they probably have a shuttle/bus service. Floating down the river stone sober while your friends get rowdy sounds miserable.
A friend brought a cooler full of nothing but IPAs to the Indy 500 this past Sunday while we were all baking, surrounded by asphalt in near record breaking heat. Absolute psycho move.
Could not disagree more. There are so many amazing hiking places in this country. The PNW, Yosemite, Sedona, the Grand Tetons. Walking through those places and seeing them in purpose will take your breath away, and the feeling of satisfaction after a good hike is unbeatable.
Once a week? Yea, that would be excessive. I’m not saying to drop that much on dinner every chance you get, but spending $70 on dinner/drinks/tips doesn’t automatically mean you’re a financial moron. I think it’s fine to splurge sometimes IF you can afford to and maybe I misunderstood, but it sounds like he thinks spending that kind of money on a dinner, no matter your situation, is irresponsible.
I totally agree with that, I just think the examples were a bit harsh. I’m not going to miss out on my best friend’s bachelorette and wedding. Those are memories you would actually cherish for a lifetime. And a dinner+drinks combo for $67 isn’t outrageous. Don’t go out and blow money like that everyday, and save up for big events, but don’t get so caught up in budgeting that you’re afraid to spend some on fun too.

I was with you until you came after my boneless wings.
Try ramen noodle with a fried egg on top for a dirt cheap meal.

Having your wedding on a Sunday is such a dick move.
*in person. I really need to start proofreading my comments.

Getting blackout drunk at the Indy 500. Can’t wait.
“The Prince & Me 4: The Elephant Adventure”. Wtf why are there so many?
Has anyone ever actually been drug tested for a (non government) job?
The best part is his car doesn’t run so you know the three of them carpooled to court together.

Sounds like he’s suggesting we stay home every day and avoid fun to pinch pennies. You can’t take the money with you when you go, dude. Live a little.
This is what my boyfriend and I do and it’s definitely the move. The 50/50 thing works for roommates, but relationships should be more balanced.
I killed an hour and twenty minutes on the elliptical because Fast Five was on at the gym and I had to finish it.
If I need to pee or something I’ll just hit pause. No way am I paying a cable company to dictate my break times for me.
