I see that the Britney conservatorship matter is going swimmingly. -- (link) - Mop, Montreal Canadiens Fan Jul 2, 12:14 12

- They don't care, anymore. -- nm - Spawn Jul 2, 12:20
- This is stupid. It's been known for years that this is not the case, "said it had been told the singer’s conservatorship was voluntary and under her -- (edited) - Andie Jul 2, 12:17 7

    - Although this group had apparently not done anything or taken any money yet. -- nm - Reagen Jul 2, 12:55 1
      - Yes, that's what the TMZ article yesterday suggested. They seemed to see the train wreck this was becoming and bailed. -- nm - Mop, Montreal Canadiens Fan Jul 2, 13:02
  - I believe it was initially voluntary. And I don't know that she has challenged that until now. -- nm - pmb Jul 2, 12:22
  - 1) Britney likely needs much better representation who'll fight for starters. 2) Co-conservator who stays 3) Continue to fight, get another judge -- nm - budice Jul 2, 12:20 2
    - Really want Reps at the state level to pass updated regs which allow a Gov pardon amongst other items -- nm - budice Jul 2, 12:22 1

- I don't think I'm ready for this season of Euphoria. -- nm - IAmQale Jul 2, 12:28

    - Good lord, it's almost spread here! *puts mask back on* -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jul 2, 12:15
    - We should launch our own franchise called Boom! Chicken! and make it explode faster. -- nm - Max Jul 2, 12:08
- I love it too, MrsJax does not. - JaxSean Jul 2, 11:58 3
  - I’ve only had the fruity ones but they’re soooo good. -- nm - kelly Jul 2, 12:13 2
    - I usually get the 3 scoops with crackers; Fancy Nancy, Buffalo Barclay and Kickin Kay Lynne. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 2, 12:15 1
      - Fruity Fran and Mac and cheese is my jam. -- nm - Volnelk Jul 2, 12:54
A negative experience I had with UHAUL this week, for heads-up posterity - Max Jul 2, 11:52 10
- On the plus side, the story ended better than I'd expected. -- nm - David Jul 2, 12:12 2
  - Yes. The guy who had the instinct to investigate was all "I gotchu, sorry for the delay but it wasn't you" - Max Jul 2, 12:17 1
    - If you need to talk or just shoot the shit, I'm here. We can play something on XBox. -- nm - David Jul 2, 12:54
- Yeah, UHaul isn't the best. But it's what we've got. - Mop, Montreal Canadiens Fan Jul 2, 12:10
- How much were they going to charge you, if you don't mind me asking/answering? - JaxSean Jul 2, 12:02 1
  - Mobile pickup provided pics they had taken with a "Does this look correct?" type confirmation prompt. -- (edited) - Max Jul 2, 12:05
- That IM just exactly why I hesitate dealing with UHaul, Penske. Even corporate car rentals. And I do take my own pictures. -- (edited) - budice Jul 2, 11:57
- Good that it came to light in time. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 2, 11:57 2
  - It really would have only been $25 (their damage insurance), but my frustration was that there was no way for me to prove it wasn't my fault. - Max Jul 2, 12:03 1
    - Tip that 25 to the guy who got you off the hook -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 2, 13:19
Pete, we were riding on a plane to Orlando once. - David Jul 2, 11:51 9
- Eh, he was just worried she was going to tweet or sue him. -- nm - Spawn Jul 2, 12:07
- HA! She should have said "Hmm I wouldn't give you a perfect 10 for putting your luggage away" -- nm - Remlik Jul 2, 11:59
- More disheartening….no one else noticed. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 2, 11:54 1
  - I think he's the wrestler Tim's most likely to stalk. -- nm - David Jul 2, 12:10
- She's such a meanie! -- nm - decline Jul 2, 11:52 4
  - She should feel bad! - Baronnoo Jul 2, 12:00 3
    - Oh, he's a wrestler? *shrug* -- nm - The Rest of the Plane Jul 2, 12:13 1
      - I think you're the only Floridian who feels this way! -- nm - David Jul 2, 12:16
