If my mom one day decided to kick us off the family plan she'll be the one getting the guillotine

 

Yeah no doubt it’s outrageous but I do wish we had the same energy when Israel does this every year and not only do we not try to do anything about it we actually give them more missiles to do it with:

Israel-Palestine: Gaza hospitals targeted in heavy Israeli bombardment
Gaza: Israeli airstrikes kill doctors and damage healthcare facilities
Another Gaza Hospital Hit by Israeli Strike; Four Dead, 40 Hurt

 

How old are both of you? Like if you’re in your 20’s and you’re trying to make things work, I’m not judging. The man in question is 36 and worked I’d say a very high profile federal job that surely could afford him a phone plan, that I am judging.

 

I can’t believe people would honestly be like “Aw man, that’s cool, don’t judge him!” about the evil incarnate that is Miller being on his parent’s phone plan.

 

Stephen Miller would 100% make fun of you for being on your parents’ phone plan.

 

Signing on social media to see all the horrible oil/gas takes again like

 

Understand too, that I’m not particularly judging anyone in here for being on their parent’s plan, I understand why and if that’s your current situation, there’s nothing to be ashamed about that. None are you are wealthy fascist ghouls anyway.

 

I mean, I can totally afford my own phone plan, I'm just cheap and would prefer to use that money on something like going out for an extra dinner once a month lol

 

What an extremely weird hill to die on lol. I don't care how much money someone makes, if you can get something cheaper, then why the fuck not?


Like yes please big conglomerate telephone company take more of my money for the same service!!!!

 

I'm getting free health insurance from my university next year and I keep feeling like its the greatest thing in the world and such a generous offer until I realize that most of the rest of the world just takes it for granted.

Edit: I realize now that the conversation was phone plan not health insurance (I automatically get just skip past anything related to Stephen Miller, but I guess it would be weird if this was about health insurance, considering the government gives really good insurance). Yeah, I am still on my family's phone plan as well

 

We should all just get on a giant family plan with each other and all save a bunch of money whilst also sticking it to the phone companies.

 

Because I hate him

 

you won't harm a single hair on moms head

 

My parents kicked me off of their plan last year, so now I'm on my wife's parents' plan instead.

 

My wife and I are both still on our parents plans lol

 

i only moved to my own plan like last year or the year before because 1) sprint sucks and i wanted to move to verizon and 2) i wanted to be able to upgrade my iPhone every year and not have to text my mom for their account PIN at 3am when the preorders went live every year lol

 

PANIC!!!

 

Technically, I left my parents plan when they refused to let me upgrade my then three year old 4S. They got mad about it too which is weird.

 

Brave

 

35, so I have no need to be on their plan, let alone not pay for it. I mean, I'm no white house employee, but I do alright and you may have heard of me if you keep track of the best of the best in the American South East flooring market. Definitely top 100 material when it comes to managing people who do the actual hard work.

My parents reasoning was just that we (my sister and I), would pay more to leave, and wouldn't get all the stuff we get now as we're grandfathered in (i have no idea about what, high data caps or something?). They seem to think that their bill wouldn't even go down if we left, at least not enough to matter. They even tried to get my wife on their plan and I think my BIL joined the family plan too. All I do is give them the $$$ for whatever dumb, over engineered phone that I barely use but buy every 2 years or so and whatever it costs monthly I have nothing to do with.

I'll pay for the add ons. Like I'm going out country and I'll give them whatever it costs to get my phone working internationally, so I'm not a total free loader.

 

Got to say - I'm a big fan.

 

i took it another step and used my work provided phone as my personal for 3 years. they yelled at me about data uage though so now im a grownup and pay my own phone though and use 5g to watch nba playoffs while on the clock
