I kinda like the baked Lay's. Lighter in taste, but still crunchy and saltoriffic.

I don't dislike them, but they're not the same thing at all.

I like Baked Lays too. They assuage my guilt. But you shouldn't have them forced on you if you don't want them.

Yes, they certainly shouldn't be the default- they should be an option and specifically requested.

ION, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Are baked chips gross?

yes. Some people like them, and they're actually not bad as a vehicle for a tasty dip, but they should be a choice, not the chips in the sandwiches.

ION, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

uh-oh, what's up?

oh, just people being stupid. I am in no mood to chase down condo-mates who have not given us a check for condo fees since July, and are now saying they only owe for September and October. Just, you know, GIVE US THE FUCKING CHECK EVERY MONTH without us having to ask. If we don't specifically run it down, they don't give it to us. This is why we are 3 months behind in condo payments.

In NO MOOD for this.

Effers. Why are you responsible for their fees? That is annoying.

well, there's only 2 units, so the condo account is sort of a informal thing- we divide the "labor" involved- They pay out the expenses and we do the deposits. So, when they give us a check, then we run their check and ours down to the bank where the condo account is. I got tired of "reminding" them, so we just now do it whenever they get off their asses to write a check- usually every other month, for 2 month's fee at a time.

It's also how we are sure that they are actually paying the fucking fee, if we are teh ones putting it in the bank. You see why this is necessary.

Tom's all, we should institute some rules, and I'm all, OMG I am not going to legislate them on this- too stressful. Also since there are only 2 units in the building, you can't just call them out as stupid motherfuckers. (er, which probably isn't done in larger communities as well, but it's a much more intimate kind of set up so careful treading is required.)

So I don't know WTF to do. I figure we'll just match whatever amount they give us. We do have a cushion, so it should be fine.

Nora, I'm sorry you have to deal with such irresponsible jerks. In your shoes, I might consider getting one of those receipt books that have carbon copies, and make sure to give them a receipt each time from now on. That way, you have documentary proof of what you have gotten from them, and you can say, ok, if you paid for the month of ___, show me your receipt. If they say they lost the receipt, you can look through the receipt book copies, and show them, nope it's not here. And if they ask why you are bothering, you can say you decided to start keeping a more careful account now because you managed to lose track before and do not want your mistakes to cause trouble for them.
