    Lol... that's kind of what I was saying. I don't get testy with China orders because I know how long it takes...

    But I do get testy with U.S. orders because again, I know how long it takes. If that posters package has been sitting in his local PO for that long I'd be at the post office by now saying "look"... lol
    "Look... I walked 2 miles here just to prove to you that this amount of distance can be traversed in this modern age of technology, in much less than a week."

    Now, to find yourself a row boat and a rice hat, to prove to the Chinaman. ;)

    "Also, Dude, "Chinaman" is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian-American, please."

    And that's going in my signature, lol.

    I don't understand why we need preferred nomenclatures for any American. If your a citizen your just an American... why some people want to be something else is beyond me, there's no hyphen necessary because your American. Period. End of story.

    Because that doesn't make people feel special, and in today's culture - that's all anyone wants. It's getting a bit ridiculous if you ask me.

    :lol: well ya know what :pervy: I am american :lol: mostly Cherokee and Kajin so get off my land :lol:

    but yeah no...there's no real reason to hyphenate it or anything, you're american, you're american...america is a melting pot, everyone has some something else in them be it chinese, african, italian, german, arab, indian, spanish, mexican, etc... not many people can claim that they are native ;) just saying

    Both of my parents were immigrants but they did it all, went through a million and one hoops that so many people don't have the opportunity to jump through, yet here we are.

    I was born here, and I am American and blessed to be so. My children are American and blessed to be so.

    I actually know people who would give anything for the opportunity to say the words "I'm American"...

    Screw anyone who says we are anything else. Nope. I'm American and proud of it...

    But then... these days I could probably benefit from some of @Rossum 's reading reading material there Yourself in 5 years

    Haha

    Well, even though the indigenous 'Americans' were here for thousands of years before America even gained that moniker, a bit over 500 years ago, they're just the original squatters here. And, although very, very poorly treated by the European newcomers...I reckon the argument could be made that there are no natives.

    I was once proud to be American, but I don't know if I can honestly believe that anymore. All I see is entitlement - everywhere. It doesn't help that I've worked in the service industry for the past 20 years of my life, but people here really are disgusting, and it's been progressively getting worse over the past 10 or so years.

    I can't keep track anymore. A guidebook that has all the cheat codes listed would be helpful. Better yet, an app for my smarter-than-me phone.

    And please, I prefer to be referred to as Human-Earth-Milky Way. Cuz like, freakin' hey, I am special. :lol: :lol:

    And nobody better try cancelling my culture or they will be meeting the very sharp teeth of my highly trained German Shepherd. :D

    I've not seen it... but then my husband and I are living in the Appalachian mountains for a good while now... remote and away from people - always a plus! Haha

    Sequoia trees are native. :D

    Many have been dated at over 3000 years.

    Somewhere out there
    Buy a clone from FastTech... clones aren't bad. I have a dwarv MTL FL that's pretty good (the no-name clone with 10 inserts) a Coppervape Hussar project x clone that's good, and a Kayfun prime clone that's good...

    All are affordable and FastTech IS shipping, just take a bit to reach you...
    The FT 2019 Kayfun clone is very good

    Ahhh, I imagine this will kinda be me one day, lol.

    You know how you can't go shopping without people stopping and talking to you... well whenever they stop my husband in the store and exclaim surprise at seeing him he always says "I come down off my mountain once a year, whether I need to or not just to see what's going on in the world"

    Haha... he's a hermits hermit! But it's a good life... :)
