Never get an ATM withdrawal fee with USAA. Anywhere in the world (and I travel internationally for work A LOT). They reimburse for any ATM fee. If you didn’t serve, get in through one of your parents or grandparents that did. It’s worth it for the banking alone, but the rates, responsiveness and service in their insurance is second to none. And given the international nature of their member base, they are great on international banking issues. 

been trying to get my dad to open an account there for years.  every time i bring it up he just tells me USAA was for officers and GEICO was for enlisted.

You go to a sushi restaurant or taco place and every God damn roll or taco has avacado in it.

Not every God damn taco or roll needs fucking avacado. 

Jesus fucking Christ the avacado lobby is stronger than the bike, pro-gun, anti-gun, pro-choice, Christian fundamental and banking lobbies combined. 

/Zero cr

Not every fucking person loves avacado. Stop.

Yeah, but there haas to be something wrong with those people.

No avacado is a choice when creating a menu. Maybe thinking outside the box with one or two rolls out of the 30 on a menu that don't have avacado.
Fuck sake. 
I didn't come here to argue he fucking pros and cons of avacado, rather simply to vent.
Of course all the avacado cock sucking mouth breathers have to pipe in.
I'm done with this fucking thread.
Did an avacado bang your wife?

Adding avocado to a taco or burger would likely be an upcharge at many places.   I'm okay with some people having to ask for it to be removed instead.

Getting something other than rolls is an option at a sushi place.

Can't remember if these were USPS or FedEx.

Had one circle around New York City for weeks. I just assumed I'd never get it. Showed up a month later.

Had another get to within 20 minutes of my house only to be diverted up through Denver and then back to Houston. I think it traveled over 1,000 miles out of the way and nobody knew why.

Mind bottling.

I have a friend who is a way upper for ups in Memphis. He tells me funny stories. Says that the union cares about getting it right as much as I care about my MILs birthday. Not being CR here, just that they dont care even making $25 an hour.

And I will say that the mesquite hub must be the worst hub in their company. Anything for me going east hits little rock, and they kick ass constantly. But mesquite has the worst managers ever. I want to pull up a lawn chair on a tuesday night with a cooler of beer and watch these jackasses screw up shipments until 6am.

Yeah, cut out to Benny and the Jets fir the 3rd time that day. I fucking swear radio plays all the wrong songs, and when they get one right like Sultans, they fuck it up.

Wrong.  I am progressive and forward thinking. 

See I have a Zune that holds most of my songs I ripped from my Now That's What I Call Music collection.  I also scored a sweet high-end auxiliary cassette adapter.  So I just pop that baby into my cassette player and I am good to go.  I am my own radio.  I am the future.

I listen to the radio several times a week.  We even named our radio show 'Radio Ga-Ga'   of course, we last broadcasted that show in 1993.
