I called my State Farm agent for something and was informed that he had died

I guess, a toe tag? I didn’t think it polite to ask how he died.

I’m glad I was the one who called. If my wife called she would’ve asked something appropriate like “will this affect our premiums”. Which is in fact, the first thing she asked me when I hung up the phone and gave her the news

I was going to post this in the home ownership thread, but it really belongs here...

Description:

Bring your creative vision to see the potential in this charming home in a great location. Home is sold in "AS IS" condition and reflected in the price. Four bedroom, two full bath on large cul-de-sac lot. Great opportunity for sweat equity.

Reality:

Roll up to the house. All windows are open. Immediately smell that stale smoke when I step out of my car. Jeep with flat tires in the driveway, which is crumbling. No key in the lockbox. Door is unlocked. Upstairs... not terrible but definitely a gut reno. Smoke smell, carpet ripped up, disgusting walls. Downstairs... the worst cat piss smell I've ever experienced. Looks like it might have flooded. Carpet stained. Giant blooms of white mold coming out of the carpet. Rear patio is completely crumbling. Totally unsafe to use. Abandoned powered wheelchair out there, pesticide sprayer, kitty litter box and containers. Then there's another car in the yard that's completely taken apart... motor out and rusting, wheels off, etc.

Moral of the story: **** dishonest realtors.

My wife just got a phone call from a scammer.

-They were not only unsuccessful, she is researching how to take them down.

Work for a living, losers.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH HUMANITY? WE ARE OPENLY PROVOKING MARTIAN LIFE! HAVE WE NOT SEEN THE PROOF OF HOW THIS WILL END POORLY FOR US IN VIRTUALLY EVERY ALIEN MOVIE EVER?

Multiple subglacial water bodies below the south pole of Mars unveiled by new MARSIS data - Nature Astronomy

MARSIS provides enhanced coverage of the south polar region where there have been indications of a subglacial lake. These new data confirm the presence of a lake and suggest the existence of a complex hydrologic system including various smaller liquid bodies, probably composed of salty brines.
