Quote of the Day
If wanting to pay a reasonable price for a home somewhere within a 40 minute commute to my place of employment makes me a loser and a “tool bag”, then I’m happy to be a loser and a tool bag. I’m sorry for all the people who are losing money on their home values right…
If wanting to pay a reasonable price for a home somewhere within a 40 minute commute to my place of employment makes me a loser and a “tool bag”, then I’m happy to be a loser and a tool bag. I’m sorry for all the people who are losing money on their home values right now, but those of us in careers other than banking, medicine and law would like to own our homes, too.

DIBS, that makes sense. So maybe our forefathers were running around calling each other “Asshats” and somehow over time we’ve (at least most of us) have come to drop the “hats” portion of that word. The What must be old school.
I think the appropriate term is simply “tool.” However, it may be a more modern shortening similar to where we were all call each other “douches” a few weeks ago and I inquired why we weren’t using the old school “douchebag”
Not to be dense, but I think of a “tool bag” as a rather useful accessory. Especially for a homeowner. Is that even an insult?
CWB—don’t worry about being flamed. Its a badge of honor. Your quote expresses a thought that lots and lots of people have.

“Oh, god, I’m going to get flamed to death. :)”
QOTD!
Oh, god, I’m going to get flamed to death. 🙂
