Can't we all just get along?

funny that a cop would want to free a pig...

11/6/2012 11:48:02 PM

Innocent until proven guilty

11/6/2012 11:51:01 PM

this is change I can believe in

11/6/2012 11:51:02 PM

You drove that alias into the ground. It's terminated.

11/6/2012 11:52:48 PM

lol at terminated

11/6/2012 11:53:07 PM

Although thanks for all your "ask a cop for advice" input. Those are positive contributions to this board, versus your PigPen "work."

11/6/2012 11:54:18 PM

PigPen is a real person not an alias.

11/6/2012 11:55:48 PM

I know PigPen

11/6/2012 11:58:09 PM

I know PigPen as well, he's my #1 source for sports news

that bastard does know a lot about State athletics

11/6/2012 11:59:39 PM

In the "I'm going to say the false thing that pisses everyone else off" way...yeah, you're right.

The logs say otherwise.

But either way the outcome is the same. The name is done.

11/7/2012 12:01:12 AM

Blasphemy. I sat w/ him at the State-FSU game.

11/7/2012 12:03:37 AM

who terminated suspended him? must have been a shit head

He is not terminated, just suspended.

I realize this thread is about Freedom for PigPen ....which this is not. Hear me out, maybe I can offer some insight.

I chose to stay at home when the first one was born and have been at home ever since (coming up on 5 years).

It was actually the money saving option, especially once we had two children. By the time we factored in what I would make as a teacher and deducted the cost of childcare and the cost of work (work clothes, supplies, gas, etc.) we really didn't come out ahead enough to justify turning over the care of our children to someone else.

Most of you know I worked in childcare for years prior to having my own. Here are some hokey alternatives to traditional daycare:

-A home daycare. While you really need to do your homework, I know of several parents who have found this to be a good option for them. A lot of times you'll have a SAHM former teacher type or retiree who has a small at home operation with just a few kids and reasonable rates. Just don't expect a 5 star rigorous preschool program.

-A family friend or neighborhood SAHM. Sometimes you just get lucky. I know of SAHMs with children in school who keep younger children. I know of young mothers who might take in a sibling pair in addition to her own to make some extra money. (I did this while at home with my first child.)

-Nanny share. When I worked in childcare, I was actually hired for this type of job. It's where two (or more) parents get together and pool their resources to hire a nanny for their children. It's less expensive than flat out hiring a nanny, but may not be cheaper than traditional daycare depending on where you live.

-Parent CoOp. This is great for people who live in larger cities or neighborhoods. A group of parents get together and actually find a way to care for their children among the group. This really only works though if everyone isn't working a traditional 9 to 5 work day. When you have some parents who work part time or work retail hours, it surprisingly works out to everyone's advantage.

-Alternating shifts. My older brother and his wife did this for years. My brother worked 3rd shift and my SIL worked 1st shift. Someone was always at home for their daughter. I think that this sucks if you do it all alone. BUT they did hire someone to come in for awhile so my brother could sleep. It was an older woman that they paid a sort of cut rate because dad was at home the entire time, even though he was asleep. This leads me to...

-Work from home. If you're going to work from home, though, hire someone to watch your children while you work. But because you're at home, you may feel more comfortable hiring someone older or younger or less qualified to care for your children than you might would ordinarily. This works. Some of my earliest childcare experience was as a "mother's helper." The pay was shit, but I had less liability because mom was always around to fall back on when something happened that was outside of my developing skill set and mom got the opportunity to lock herself in her home office for a few hours.

You keep on thinking that.

11/7/2012 1:22:15 AM

according to this thread, it was only a suspension

11/7/2012 1:26:03 AM

theres really no reason for PigPen to be unsuspended

you'd think an LEO would have better things to do (says the guy with 100 and whatever thousand posts)

11/7/2012 1:42:58 AM

^^ Posting dick sucking in the Feedback Forum is the ultimate tdub cardinal sin. I guess Restricted didn't get the memo.

11/7/2012 2:06:55 AM

TWWer first, cop second.

11/7/2012 8:25:20 AM

the Classifieds mod has a real hard-on for PigPen. I'm afraid it'll take a lot of work to get him freed. Either that or a nice PM to Ken.

11/7/2012 8:28:27 AM

^^^ I was always a very big fan of that thread

PigPen's fearless defiance and devil-may-care mischievousness were, in themselves, good

11/7/2012 12:47:42 PM

No better time than now!

11/25/2012 7:05:46 PM

have to agree with Restricted here

at least free him until we have a new coach hired

11/25/2012 7:12:54 PM

word on the street is that PigPen knows who the next coach will be

11/25/2012 7:34:58 PM

Exactly, once the search is over, he can retire for another 4 to 5 years.

[Edited on November 25, 2012 at 7:49 PM. Reason : Satan has been pretty mum on the subject. ]

11/25/2012 7:40:57 PM

I've met PigPen and he bleeds Wolfpack red

11/25/2012 7:47:45 PM

ITT, synapse shows he has never heard of the concept of having a roommate.

11/25/2012 8:53:42 PM

Woah, two users can share an IP address? I had no fucking idea

11/25/2012 9:54:58 PM

I'm not sure why you decided to bust out the , according to your own dumbassery in this very thread, it genuinely appears this actually is a revelation to you.

11/25/2012 11:34:02 PM

While I love all the nut riding and attention you've giving me, if you could read the logs it's pretty clear.

Also he has admitted to using PigPen. But please, tell us more.

11/26/2012 1:17:57 AM

You seem to be interjecting your level of caring about this issue (a lot apparently) onto me. Please don't make that mistake again. I care as much about who is behind pigpen as you do about being a quality moderator. I was just pointing out your level of intelligence displayed in this thread, which, for the record, remains quite low.

11/26/2012 1:35:42 AM

Bump

11/27/2012 5:39:27 PM

i just lost even more respect for cops, in general.

11/27/2012 6:10:02 PM

PP is good people. He's rooting for the Pack tonight and will pop a vein in his neck at some juncture

11/27/2012 6:32:42 PM

Or pass out drunk

11/27/2012 6:38:13 PM

i'm sure he'd have some great wralsportsfan.com, abclocal.go.com and northcarolinastate.scout.com articles pertaining to the football coaching search

11/27/2012 6:40:41 PM

I can stand behind this cause

11/27/2012 7:13:13 PM

^^PigPen has all the sources.

11/27/2012 8:00:14 PM

what has PP been saying about the impending Rodney Purvis transfer?

11/27/2012 8:09:51 PM

Once the TWW petition system has enough signatures for this, it will be implemented automatically.
