    We've touched on this before, but man it seems things escalated.

    On the 1st Gen FB group, there's this guy a lot of people recommend buying parts from "Joe Joe". Thing is, the guy is just a drop shipper from what I've learned, so you end up paying more for OEM parts than buying them yourself if you actually search.

    Thing is, asking for advice on a crappy FB group already says enough about the people in there.

    "When should I replace my LBJ?" And other basic stuff.

    Recently someone posted about being out some cash for over a year and apparently that JJ blocked him. Others are coming out that they too have been robbed.

    Like holy shit, his fanboys are idiots and always called people out for even doing a simple "haha" reaction. Seems y'all support someone that's alright with stealing people's money :notsure:

    It really is.

    It'll come up on my feed, and I'll see one or two comments that just appear with the post. Most times it's a comment tagging Joe Joe as the recommended go to.

    Me - "haha" reaction and move on.

    Then I'll get like two or three tags asking "why are you laughing" or some stupid shit :rofl:

    I never reply but it's like damn dude get off his junk.

    I would have thought more of Florida would have been on the list. All the old people that look like beef jerky.

    Moving to Moscow was a generational mistake, idk what I was thinking moving to a tiny college town at 28. And I passed up the job with the city that could've paid me 30 an hour within a year. And I won't get that opportunity again, so it's not even a "live and learn" type situation. I've tried to do shit like go out to shows, play pickup soccer, hiking, etc., but it still feels like I'm stuck in the middle of a giant wheat field. Anyway just felt like I had to rant, thanks for coming to my TED talk.

    But on the bright side $30 an hour ain't shit really anymore and you're really close to Washington so you could always move just a little bit further and you're earning potential goes up. Idaho overall has very poor earning potential unless you intend to stay in the middle of nowhere and don't have huge expenses and even then there are cheaper nowheres than a college town.

    I'm making 23/hr now and people have told me even entry level factory positions at SEL or the bullet factory pay more than that.

    I have no idea what the bullet factory is but it sounds cool. Also have no idea what SEL is. But I do know that you could probably pick up extra hours and essentially an activity to do that you've proven you like by working at one of the coffee shops in Moscow.
