“A lot less lazy shit” said like someone that doesn’t do manual labor, that kills my desire to hear your thoughts since you’re biased. Most jobs aren’t office jobs. Most people will only lose money.

The amount of people who don't understand pathogens vs toxins is too high lol.

>Ray the Mover

Looks like they're with Allied. I have an estimator coming by Friday. Good to know their contractors are reputable.

You can cook away pathogens, but not toxins.

Edit: The fact this is getting downvoted is mind-blowing lol.

Five Crowns is an excellent card game! It dominates the circuit in family game night. Also on the roster: Yahtzee, Skip-bo, cranium and cribbage.

Yeah. Most of it isnt too corporatized either. Its practically a time capsule with all the old structures and town centers and road patterns. Sprawl happens so ridiculously quick lots people dont have the observation of what happens in such a short time. Im from Eastern CT and in 35years so much has changed, i could ramble about this topic all day

If you shit in a bucket I'm not hanging out with you.

I would be willing to drive about two or three hours in any direction to try to find good weather if necessary. I saw the last one and it was worth traveling for.

I'm curious how many people posting on this topic are actually at work right now and commenting on Reddit when they should be working, myself included.

I didn't have the glasses for the last one, so I made myself a pinhole eclipse viewer the night before. Everyone I was with wanted to try it out even though they had the glasses.

A couple years ago the kids wanted to try Sugaring, so we got a 50 gallon blue bucket and all the gear and proceeded to tap our maple trees and fill the barrel with sap over the course of a few days, but... the kids got bored so we left it sitting on our porch.

So of course a squirrel ended up drowning in the barrel, but no one wanted to get it out. Not to mention the barrel was full so at several hundred pounds was nearly impossible to move by hand.

We ended up just leaving it there for like 3 years till the squirrel finally disintegrated and then awkwardly pushed the barrel over to the woods to dump it out.

It was pretty gross.

Worse was when the dogs found the bones of the squirel and paraded it around the yard.

True VT story. :-)

> getting everything paid for by

FTFY.

Although payed exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:

• Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. The deck is yet to be payed.

• Payed out when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. The rope is payed out! You can pull now.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

Beep, boop, I'm a bot

Yes. Thank you. I’m glad there are a few here who understand.

I’ll put it into perspective for other people…I make as much as an X-ray technician. In most other states I’d be living pretty comfortably. Here… I’m living low class. I can save about $200-$400 a month, unless we have an emergency, like my dog contracting lime or car repairs…Then there goes a bunch of it. To move out we need to pay an awful lot. First, last, and security of the new place on top of a moving rental, enough to pay a few months of rent while we find jobs, enough for a few months worth of food for 2 grown adults, two cats, a dog. I have multiple health issues, including type 1 diabetes. I need a few months worth of meds and an emergency supply.

I can not stand when people aren’t willing to see things from the perspectives of those who are struggling, forgotten, and downtrodden. My mother acts like this, she’s getting everything payed for by my stepdad who makes a good amount…and she’s in Lala land about the world. I’m pretty fucked up because of her… And this thread proves to me exactly what Ive noticed about certain Vermonters offline.

We moved here after we retired from the military. Ray the Mover out of Manchester, NH was who got contracted to move our household goods from wherever the international ingress point was to Hartford, VT. They handled it quickly, did assembly and some unpacking. They even returned the next week to gather up boxes and paper, which is something none of the other movers we dealt with ever did. It was paid by the DOD, so I couldn’t even guesstimate costs, but their people were excellent.

Have you checked out the other forbidden games? Desert and Island are great, and Jungle is coming out soon

Yahtzee and spinners

Don't we already have a 5 day work week? Most places are closed sun-monday

That damn wizard again

Yeah, the part of Vermont that's great is that its not an urban hellscape. These people really just need to move to Boston.

I fell for a broker so I don't have any positive advice to share, but don't use "Safe Ship". I wish I'd have just used a U-Haul myself.

Haha. Not quite, but I’ve always been an old soul.

Found the senior citizen.

Jk my 30 year old wife loves cribbage

That’s gross but the sap is going to get the bejesus a boiled out of it so shouldn’t be anything pathogenic left.
