Went to my brother's house in GA with my kids; got down there Wed night and was going to stay until Sunday, but came back today.

To try and make a long story short, last night we were discussing what we were going to do today and my brother said we need to be on the road by 9am since we were going to go to a couple places near Chattanooga. I asked why do we need to leave that early, and the discussion/argument evolved into me not being a good parent for my kids.

I was literally ready to beat the shyt out of him and his personal cheerleader (his wife). Needless to say, I and my kids will not be seeing them any time soon.

Hope everyone else had a better 4th....
 
Sorry to hear that.

Had a great time last night with some friends in Glen Ellyn, drove up to Cheeseheadland this afternoon to spend the rest of the weekend with friends and m folks.
 
I worked from 7:45 am until past midnight, topped off by an hour crawling through bumper-to-bumper traffic from a fireworks show.

And I still had a better day than you did, meh :(

"You can pick your friends, but you can't pick your family" - FWIW, I make a conscious effort to maintain a passable relationship with my brother, but that's probably only possible because we only see each other a couple of times a year.
 
So you're a bad parent because you didn't want to leave at 0900? My Spidey-Sense is tingling...there must be more to it than just that.
 
That sucks Kyle, wish I was still in Georgia, we could have salvaged the weekend

Alas I'm in a hotel room waiting for my new place to be ready watching the Sopranos. Currently almost through season two

Probably going to do some city tours tomorrow

sorry to hear that. My 4th was quiet...very quiet. Soon after my parents passed away ( both within the past three years) I had a issue with my older sister about my dealings with the estate and I swore I would never talk to her again... did not last long, love my older sis! hope everything works out well for you!
 
All true, you don't pick brothers/sisters or in laws.
I am so glad that I was an orphan. Did not have to deal with all that crap.
I am happy in my own little world, everyone knows me there.
 
Dear Abby,

I belong to a muscle car web site and usually we talk about things that improve our cars performance, reliability and maintainability. :burnout:

But lately members are delving into personal matters about individual relationships, sexual innuendo's, family crisis and off color jokes.:eek:

This has resulted in hurt feelings, misunderstandings, and too much drama.
:flamer:

This distresses me, so what should I do?:dunno:

Sign me...

Fed up.

There is, just trying to keep the story short or else I would type up a 12-page post.

The ironic thing is, they don't have kids, but they know how everyone else should raise theirs. In fact, my brother specifically said, "and don't tell me just because I don't have kids I don't know what I'm talking about. I've been around kids who's parents let them do whatever they wanted".

I replied, "well, I guess I'm a qualified police officer or college professor because I've been around them".

It was basically a repeat of what happened two summers ago, and I'm done.
 
When I go on vacation w/ my sibling and they take a double dose of their kids ADHD med, which they don't have but get to keep an edge, I am miserable. I am on call 24/7 as it is and vacation is just extra work. As in the work don't stop.
But my children do enjoy it and no one lives for ever. Point is sometimes we make sacriifices for our family knowing they never will for us because we are better than they are. Why else would we do it?
Certainly not because they are better than we are!

I have nothing to add to this thread other than smh

I don't get it. Everyone lets the crazy political **** go on all the time, and never say boo

A guy posts up that he had a crappy fourth and this is what we are going to choose to pounce on????????

I just don't get it. So there are movie threads out there, music threads out there, and other stuff. We are about more than the car and should be able to discuss more than the car.

We should avoid polarizing topics like politics. But by what's been written in this thread I guess I shouldn't post that I moved to Boston. Or Rex shouldn't post he is going to spend some time in Wisconsin?

This right here to me anyways, is everything wrong with the site.

We critique when people gave fun, we critique when people make innuendo, and now, lastly, we critique when a member vents about a crappy 4th

Y'all win, let's just post about what we did to our cars today. I'll start

I washed it
