  • Glad to hear it didn’t go wonky. One of my friends in college pierced his own nipples on my couch.

    So, now you know he’s getting into grown up stuff. If you punish him now, he will learn to hide these things from you to avoid punishment. Rather, just have a pleasant conversation about it. Be interested, share any related stories you have (if you have any tattoos etc, or maybe something “dumb” that you did at that age) Let him know that he can come to you with these things. That way you get a chance to direct him (next time you want something pierced, let’s find a professional.) instead of it happening in the shadows behind your back.






  • Ok, but it’s clearly not. On more than one occasion, I’ve loaded up large appliances or furniture with a van only to learn that it won’t fit through the back hatch, or there are cubbies and curves inside that cut the corners. Even if you have plenty of empty space inside, you have to fit it through a smaller keyhole. I have been stuck with a half empty back and a tied down hatch because the opening wasn’t big enough to get the whole thing in.

    With an open bed truck you can just drop the tailgate or drop it in from above.

    I can tell you have a real hard on for vans, but just ignoring facts because they don’t fit your stance is ignorant. I’ve never even owned a truck, so I don’t care about defending their honor or any bullshit like that, but you have to give them credit where it’s due, and they haul like nothing else, even vans.
