It’s already happening. Society is breaking down. (((Their))) only hope is virtual reality or microchipping us to control our minds. I don’t think they will get there in time. The economy is about to fall off the cliff, and racial tensions are getting real bad. This whole country is a powder keg waiting for a match.

How old are you? Typically vision doesn't change once you're in your mid 20's. If you managed to get a shit roll on stats and start going bad later in your teenage/young adult years you probably won't fair too awful. I started going bad at 8 and was pretty much blind by my 20's. I now have 20/20 with 0 astigmatism after corrective surgery. Just make sure you do PRK, suffering through the recovery is worth knowing that in the even of shit getting real you won't have to worry about a detached lens.

Not that user, but been thinking about biting the bullet on that recently, scared of detached lens tho. Always been near sighted, slight astigmatism.
>Just make sure you do PRK, suffering through the recovery is worth knowing that in the even of shit getting real you won't have to worry about a detached lens.
Is PRK really better? Looking it up gives me pretty mixed answers... I'm especially concerned, as you mentioned about the dangerous mixture of boogaloo and eye trouble.

I just want you to know user, this post resonated with me deeply. My grandpa started in the WV mines at a similar age, tough fuck lived to be in his 50s and I guess decided he'd rather go out with some dignity instead of lingering and suffering. I wonder what that man would think of the world today...

Just remember that Mike Vining wears glasses as well. But make sure you don’t get an autist frame if you get to that point.
If you’re going under the laser then yes. LASIK will get fucked over time, could be a decade, could be a few years, but you’ll end up with even worse vision than before due to that flap.

God, this thread is making me feel good.

Beef stew is pretty good, even though I don't care for anything besides the Beef stew itself

>t. dead soul in a living body

Beef stew is great user. My mom used to make it a lot in the fall and winter, sometimes summer if we begged hard enough. Those warm, beefy, savory memories can't be beat. I'm glad you remembered something good.
And thanks for the Lasik advice.
This is a nice thread. Leave it to night Jow Forums.

>I feel robbed sometimes
Same here borther. My father and his dad hated each other so I met him once when I was like 7. My mom's father just didn't give a shit to even talk to me past hello's and merry Christmas. I even watched the first Iraq war 8 feet from him on the floor of his den.
Asshole could have at least told me about getting bombed in Pearl Harbor. I still have never been fishing.

One grandfather died in his fifties from agent orange exposure back in 'Nam. Cased chronic throat issues and eventual cancer. Other is nice, and a life long reserve man, artillery at that. Lives in florida after they sold the family farm though. I miss my other grandpa an awful lot. I feel he would've gone shooting with me every weekend if he was still around.

Im a few days from 22. Some days are better than others. I'm prone to migraines so it makes sense. surgery just scares me a bit.

I've never been so filled with hate before and I'm buying a bunch of stuff in an attempt to fill the void. Trying to get into reloading now, but being a dad is eating up any personal time I used to have and it isn't as rewarding right now as I imagined it would be. Folks keep saying that my toddler will want to be around be some day, but over a year of clinging to her mother has got me down.

Do not let these go to waste. These guns are from a bygone time. I emplore y'all, if you spot old guns in pawn shops or estate sales, save them.

Hopefully you'll reconnect with your uncle and fuck your family for basically leaving him to die alone (unless he has a wife). hopefully also you could convince him to give his guns to you, because by the sound of it, your family members would melt the guns and turn them into "art" or hand them over to the cops. (What guns does he have out of curiosity?)

Man, don't feel bad that your granddad is out of guns and probably dying, theres no way around that, be glad that he decided to share some of the end of his life with you. It means he values you and wanted to spend some of his very limited time with and on you.

We're not all so lucky, one of my grandfathers barely interacted with me at all, the other the last time he talked to me called me a pathetic fat kid, which I kinda was, due to shitty broken family and depression that I didn't recognize till I was almost 25. I was also only 14, my parents has just got divorced and instead of helping me get through an obviously screwed up period he took a shit on me and told my dad I was a worthless fuckup while I was standing there.

Feels good man, feels like your grandpa cares about you and sees the time he spends with you as worthwhile and important enough to be a priority.

I feel for you Jow Forumsomrade but get off the board for a while and fucking make the most of the time you have. Have some nice liquor on hand and watch old westerns together, ask to hear old stories even if you've already heard him, tell him you love him even if he's a hard-nosed stoic old timer and doesn't want to hear it. Not all of us get a chance to say good bye

Good for you user, I'm happy for you. Also, that furry bud of yours is a true bro.
parenting is a long game. i have four kids, my oldest is turning 11. Trust me, there will be times when it is very rewarding. The first year or so of your first kid is really difficult, huge adjustment period. soon that kid will start doing things that were hard for you to imagine when she was just an infant, i.e. an eating/pooping/sleeping blob. don't worry about it.

How do I make friends like this?

That's the ugliest thing I've read all day.

Anyone who tells their 14 yr old grandson something like that is a waste of skin.

Fuck it user, buy why you enjoy shooting. Don't skimp when it comes to a carry gun and carry ammo tho

Don't sell any of it. Don't listen to what people say, either, it's the same tiny number of fags bitching about what everybody else is doing, but keep those gucci guns. Buy a WASR or a PSA AR/AK/whatever utilitarian simple gun too and enjoy it, but you should save all of those other things for when you settle down with a girl and have kids, so they can have them when they come of age.

Same man. 31 here. My two past girlfriends were shit. One left me for chad, they have a kid together. It’s extremely hard to find any decent women when even the 18 year olds have had sex with at least 3 people before graduating high school. There is no loyalty anymore. I’ve had chances with single moms and what not, but it’s just depressing to think about paying for some other mans orgasm. I dont even want to get married at this point if I did land someone decent, out of fear I’ll get robbed blind in a divorce. The more time that passes the more put off by the whole scharade I get. But the grass always looks greener on the other side. Pretty much all married couples who have been together 10 plus years are miserable anyway.

I'm glad to hear you're making it, man.

he does have a wife, but its not getting any better for him last i heard from my mother. I have no idea what he has,my mother who is my uncles sister would get an absolute tongue lashing from me if she tried doing shit like that after hes gone because im pretty openly SHALL NOT in front of my family. I faintly remember as a kid when I was at his house that he had a revolver with a scope on it (lol), but thats all i rememeber. My grandfather had guns all over his house after he died and my uncle took all of them, so I really wanna know what kinda shit he has, on top of his own collection which im sure is large.

Did korea vets ever bring back garands? my grandpa fought in the war and according to my mom and uncle never said a fucking word about it and was a drunk, so i wonder what kind of shit he went through.
