Send Help! I

I wish I could sway her to my side, less hassle and it'd be so much easier.

...we all have our demons.

Wrist - Dirtbiking - flew over the handlebars
Ankle - Parkour- flipped and landed wrong
Foot - Parkour - again landed wrong rolled and broke the foot.
Ribs - Dirtbiking - (1) jumped a ramp didn't quite nail the landing, I went one way the bike went another. (2) Messing around with my brother in the pool, I dove off the diving board he met me in mid air cus he jumped from the side, I hit the side of the pool.
Dislocated shoulder - (4x's) lacrosse, dirtbiking, doing a back-flip off the couch, ..idr
Thumb/hand - work related
Arm - Bridge jumping

Dad- the estimate came in, to paint just the downstairs $x,xxx
Mum - * jaw drops slightly* That seems a bit high.
Dad - My thoughts as well, though we're pressed for time.
Me - I'll paint it for $xxx
Dad - The entire down stairs?
Me - yep, though you supply the paint and materials.
Dad - *Thinks about it for a minute, turns to mum* We'd still come out under budget. And If its not done correctly, seeking retribution would be much easier.
Me - So we have deal?
Alex - *walks in as we about to shake hands* Deal for what?
Dad - Your brother is going to take care of the painting we were going to hire a crew to do this week.
Alex- How come I'm never offered these opportunities?
Dad - You weren't around.
Alex - Well I want in on this too. *looks to me* 5o/50?
Me - Hell no.
Alex - Dad?!
Dad - Tell you what, out bid him and the job is yours.
Alex - What are you paying him.
I start to object but before I can even get a word out dad holds up his hand.
Dad - Now that would not be fair. I will however tell you what the estimate was from the company we had out to survey the job. Their amount was $x,xxx
Alex - *looks to mum* I don't suppose you'd be willing drop a hint eh?
Mum - *Says nothing and laughs*
Alex - Favouritism.
Dad - And your bid?
Alex - names a price.
Dad- *looks to me and mum* And does your price include materials as well or is that simply labour?
Alex- Did his include materials.
No one answers him.
Alex - ok yeah sure it includes materials as well.
Dad - Congradualtions you've got the job. We'll expect the work completed by July 30th at the latest.
Mum - Elijah *disapproving tone*
Me - *Laughing*
His bid was for about $400 less than me and he was going to have to buy the paint and everything on top of it, which would probably in all likelihood add up to about $300- $400 alone, meaning he'd be working for free. Quite shocking considering Alex is usually a bit more business savvy than this. I think his eagerness to beat me out of something overtook him. Which is pretty much what dad told him. His greed got in the way and almost cost him more than he'd have earned. Don't sign up for something until you've done the research.
Dad said he would pay us both to do the work, and equal amount and he'd supply the materials.
Same here. You need to see this convo. It's hilarious. I'll put a link in a minute. It involves Joe (The Phantom).

This was after the person suggested having their character history include being raised by a wild herd.

ok that was good, an ape quoting Shakespeare,

& on the flip side then you got the ones that do stupid annoying shit.
Yea it can be crazy. That's why I don't rp anywhere else other than my own groups. Might be biased, but I like to say that mine is better than most. It's not "advanced" or based off a tv show or book. It's a growing group that's still around after 3 years. Don't see that very often. Naturally we've had some issues with people (usually somehow is my fault oops), but we clean it up. This new person might be leaving real soon. We're starting to lose our patience with them. You don't come into a group and think you can start changing things. That's called rude. And Joe is already done with then because they don't know how to use punctuation and that might be his biggest pet peeve. I'm just waiting for him to see the newest response. Being told that his "argument is irrelevant" won't sit nice for him at all. Can't wait to see him tear them up .

...he'd lose patients with me as well. Punctuation is not my strong suite. Neither is grammar or spelling for that matter.

I have no f-ing idea something on the chiller channel. Cannibalism, inbreed backwood ppl killers.
