Lived with my parents until I went off to college at 17, didn't live with them again after that.
I hope that is how it goes for you too. I had to move back in with my parents after my divorce, made $27,000 a year as a Sergeant for the Missouri Department of Corrections. Paid almost $10,000 a year in Child Support. $27,000 was gross too not net. That is what prompted me to get my 2-year degree and get into IT. Which I could not have done without my parents' help.
Crazy, everyone I know goes for 50/50 custody mostly because of this. Yet then the kids get to live with two broke parents, usually one or both parents returning home. My sister's kids have all grown up at my parents house.
I was curious, in paying child support, do both you and your wife not have to pay taxes on that amount?
I pay taxes on my income that I use to pay child support. Child support is not pre-tax. My ex-wife lives in a rural area so $10,000 is a lot of money there, most houses are under $80,000 in the town they live in. She had a good job but has never been able to hold down a job so she basically lived off of my child support. So even though I paid child support, I bought the kids clothes, shoes, etc. If they needed something extra at school they would just ask me. Also if they needed some money at school for something a lot of times, my friend the tech director at the school would pay it and then I would pay him back the next time I saw him.
10K a month?

So I refresehd my SW tab for the second time this week, and here's what was on top of the sh!tpile:

Ummm.... sorry brah, you'll need to add an "e" to get those cables to work. Also, I heard McDonald's is hiring, you're probably better suited to being a burger lackey than a sys admin.

What possessed you to even have a tab with it up in the first place? Well, besides this whole thread!

@travisdh1 sometimes I enjoy laughing at the daily question. I also lurk around the super secret group section.

Spicy Peppers is not super secret (yes I know Scott like to argue this point) it is an automatic grant to anyone that gets Thai.
To my knowledge, only 1 person was banned from it, that is Curtis.
A few people have asked to be removed from it, Scott is one of those few. That does not make it super secret or exclusive. -
@jaredbusch For anyone below Thai, the posts there remain super secret.

Not quite automatic. There is still a selection process. One of the reasons that I gave up Spicy, the key reason, was when I found out that people I had been talking about couldn't see what I was saying because even though they were above Thai, they were not granted Spicy status. There was good reasons for it, but just because you are above Thai does not mean you will get that status. Most do, or did traditionally, but not all.

I think banned gives the wrong impression - that he made it and was removed. He never made it.

So I can't just up my post count and automagically hang out with the cool kids?

For all intents and purposes, that would almost certainly work. But there is no guarantee. But the chances are essentially certain.

It is entirely automated. there is not a selection process. Things change, it has been automatic for more than 5 years.

It is what I was told. Either way, he is an exception to most things and of course any admin can preemptively block any user from any group on any forum. That does not make an automatic thing a selective thing.
If it did, then I could claim that you selectively allow all of us on ML to have access to every category.

Not the same, all categories here are open to the public without registration or identity.

On a tangentially (not really) related note, I just found this.

Yeah, that was a real site for a while. But we didn't make it for a year or two after that. It was like "worldsdumbestitpro.com" or something like that. But eventually once there was ML, we just quoted and screen shot his stuff here instead.
