Pill popping and bull riding aside, this should have been the biggest red flag to Nick that Kayla was a terminal sped. How is it that they have 5 kids, yet the mom is the one spends a 1000 bucks on Legos for herself.
(Autism ensues.)
That story in of itself feels like such a lie. The only (official) LEGO store within driving distance of him is at the Mall of America. You don't "pull up" to the Mall of America. Granted, a lot of other stores sell LEGO. But even a grand in LEGO, could just be two (granted large) sets. Even if she bought out the entire year's worth of Harry Potter, that still fits in your standard Target or Walmart cart, and would only be between 10-15 sets. Any LEGO purchase of a grand is likely a range of $50-$100 sets, +/-. A full cart, but still a cart.
It's more than you'd want to lug across the Mall of America, I'll grant that.
Likely what happened is she just bought from a local big box store in app, she made him drive over there, and they did "curbside" pickup on a cart or flat or whatever.
I have no doubt Kayla is a shitty spender, and that they don't budget... but Nick has that problem too. He's also a shitty liar.
He supposedly picked this up from his Post Office, to clarify. He also couched the story as 'Kayla is afraid to spend money because we used to be so poor. She asks me if she can buy anything, and of course now I say "Go right ahead! Why are you asking me!", but then she does shit like order a bunch of LEGO. Then I am like: "DAMN, Woman! You already have a shed full of stuff on our property!" I still love that crazy lady though' type of story.
I could always start another religious holy war in this thread too.
I will be seeing Dune 2, so I can take some inspiration. MUA'DIB! MUA'DIB!
I think the religious discussion is interesting but largely played out for most. For me becuase it is interesting, and I have dissected it; for other because it is the same or they do not care. I
t is enough to say that it is another tick mark on a list of hypocrisies. I am sure it will still come up--especially with all the Fresh Meat and users new to the Rekietasphere.
