    So Long story short, my roommates are fucks, they took my rent then kicked me out of the house for absolutely no reason
    I don't need to read any further….first sentence reeks of BS. No state in the country would allow that. More story please.

    Dental insurance is kind of a ruse if you run the numbers. You might save a few hundred a year but it's not like major medical insurance.

    I'm not a courtroom jockey but I'm bored enough and 1.5 bourbons deep so I asked google esq. and it appears Alaska is a pure comparitive negligence state thus his recovery potentially would not be 100% completely barred.

    Ugh, I feel dirty now, that will be $450.

    The judge, jury and executioner still says he still won't get shit.

    AND, I'm ahead of you on the brown liquor count, sipping on Jack Daniels White Rabbit. Only available in the great Volunteer state as a commerative issue by Sir Jack.

    No argument with your ultimate outcome counsellor, and I haven't come across that particular white whiskey - I'll have to see if the famed Liquor Barn has it my next trek up I-75. Good stuff? I liked Maker's white dog they out out a few years ago.

    Honestly? If I were the judge I'd say "don't leave your shit lying around where a dog can get to it."

    I still want to know what they chewed on - the body? Lenses? What's the $1700 figure based on - retail a few years ago? Current value of whatever was chewed on?

    You could bury the camera remnants in their interior walls. The dog will apparently go apeshit on the drywall trying to get to it.

    Is anyone else thinking we might have another TGR match? Mtgirl and AK?

    It seems perfect to me.

    Anyone?

    Can we get guns, sleds, and strippers?

    Oh... no. Just a free senior muni ride around the block, with maybe some road head and and an emergency exit out the back on the fat Pat.

    you can go anywhere for guns, sleds, and strippers, but only in exotic locales can you experience the donkey (monkey?) show.

    Was hanging with some of your type in Tuscaloosa a couple weeks ago. Great game, huh?

    Lawyers: My roommate's dog destroyed my camera. They don't want to pay..

    I'll just remind everyone that I'm ordained and would love to officiate a maggot wedding

    Went to a friend's wedding a couple wks ago and the officiant (who knew both bride and groom well) said "there will be some hike-a-bike at times" which I think is apt and made me lol

    The judge, jury and executioner likes weddings. Makes more money for divorce lawyers.

    Yes, it was a great game. I thought the Vol Nation might pull off a stunner. I was in Jax last weekend and saw the Florida/Georgia shit show. Tailgate on the river was great.

    Pretty much this. I've also had expensive stuff chewed up by other people's dogs, but as annoyed as I was, it was ultimately my fault for leaving that stuff out with puppies within range. Just had to chalk it up to "stupid tax." Sucks about your gear, but either keep your stuff out of the pup's reach, or move on and refuse to room with people who have dogs.

    And I agree. Mtgurl and OP would be a match made in heaven...

    I even offered to pay for the wedding if they promise to never have children.

    Perhaps they're already engaged? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/...b0b24aee483cd3

    Sorry, color me an asshole, but Jamespio's advice is the best that's been offered... AKPM has been having these types of problems for faaaaaar too long. Be an adult already.
