I'm indifferent on the JayDubya ban. I think that it is ridiculous that he is banned while idiots like fortified_concept run amok but on the other hand, his arguments were very abrasive. GAF is a left leaning board and whether it is fair or not, if you're on the other side, you better elaborate your positions well enough. JD didn't and would just kind of fall back on circular constitution arguments and "they exist because they do."
I don't understand. Why would you marry someone without actually knowing them or anything about their past, especially when it impacts your future together? I sure as hell wasn't about to marry someone without knowing their financial well-being, whether it be good or bad. Everybody makes mistakes at that age, financially or otherwise. Pull your credit report when you're dating/engaged and work on your credit scores together. If they continue to fuck up, then consider it a lesson learned and gtfo before you get married.
livin' in sin
Oh come on, you're an accountant. I think you should know full well by now that a lot of people are total shit with their finances. Most people just simply don't understand things like money, credit ratings, interest rates, etc. Most people just have an "I want it now!" impulse switch, whether it comes to buying expensive shit on high interest credit cards, getting a house that is 6x their salary, or marrying someone without full disclosure of serious financial mistakes.
I think divorce is a little ridiculous. Asking GAF anything about relationships is wasting time. Half of the people are lonely virgins who curse online that they rue the day they were born with a penis, often white knighting losers like Devolution. The other half are wannabe pimps and ballers, talking about all the pussy they never get, which is why they went nuts over Koshiba's fake tits and thought Himuro had a meltdown. Asking for relationship advice on GAF is like asking Stormfront to make nuanced arguments regarding Jews: it just isn't going to happen. It's throwing red meat to the virgin-wolves who want to direct their seething beta male outrage towards a target, especially a man who is dating (and presumably having sex with) a woman.
