    Being the only kid I get my parent's house and all their stuff and so on.

    I rather not think of it because I rather have my parents around than stuff.

    When I talked to my mom about this sort of thing, I said I understood that I'd have to share the split with her husband's son. She said, "Oh no, that's my house. You're getting it. That's all there is too it. I love my husband, but he didn't put hardly anything into it so that's that."

    I was like, Daaaayum.

    I mostly just want my parents to get to enjoy the house they've been building for 15 years. In that they're still not done.

    Fucking clock museum.

    these clocks don't run themselves matt

    oh wait they do?

    well um

    A lot of old clocks require a decent amount of upkeep to keep them working.

    i have two sisters

    one sister and i are rich so maybe the other one should just get the inheritance

    yeah idk if my folks are planning to leave anything behind but I've told them in the past to just give it all to the middle brother (one living in boulder as a professional pianist / piano teacher)

    I strongly suspect they've given him many (i.e. over 5 figures) dollars over the years for stuff like a nice piano and the downpayment on his modest 1 br condo but I really don't care so I don't ask

    my littlest brother is mildly salty about it tho cuz mom and dad forced him to stay in state for college while they mostly paid for me and my other brother to go to expensive out of state schools

    I'm not even looking to my Dad though. We get along great! But his wife was the bread winner. Even if she was down with splitting something with me, her family is notoriously ravenous and underhanded when it comes to inheritance. I think they've torn apart they're relationships multiple times over that kind of thing. I may make a cursory effort if available, but otherwise I'm not getting in the middle of their war for scraps. It ain't like my dad and his wife are rolling in dough.

    Hey Atomika. How did that session with your ma and the therapist go? Did you talk about it here? If not, that's cool. I was just wondering.

    many years ago i had a customer trying to play hardball with getting credit for a returned part she hadn't actually sent back yet

    and i calmly explained that i needed the part back before i could issue credit for several minutes

    but she wouldn't relent and kept getting shittier

    so finally i just said, "look, you fucking shithead, if you want your god damned credit you're going to have to send the fucking part back first" and hung up on her

    and apparently she was just offended that i said "god damned"

    they don't let me talk to customers much anymore

    well um

    I can't think of anything less useful than a clock museum.

    The guy spent 6 years building a building for it, some modern concrete and glass eyesore that doesn't fit the neighborhood at all, that he constantly had to go to court to fight over because of union grievances.

    Then the big retirement home across the street went up for sale, it's a 5 story L-shaped building, and he outbid the YMCA that was going to use it for low-rent housing, and he turned THAT into even more clock museum.

    And he's going to fill it with things that do a worse job telling time than the phone in my pocket does.
