Um...anything. No way I’m watching that tire fire. Burn me once...

$200 just for the part? Not any of the places I’ve been. I’ve never spent more than around $130 for the entire job, labor and parts included. In fact, I’m looking at pricing at a few places near me right now and you can get the entire job done for $60-$190 depending on your specific model and the specific repair shop.

$279? You can take your iPhone in for screen repair at any number of places for a fraction of what Apple charges. And it can take under an hour. Unfortunately I’ve had to go that route 3-4 times.

I tried to watch it. I lasted exactly 8 minutes. Ugh.

“We’ve all been there.”

Is it bad that this doesn’t really bother me?

DIY Peloton? DIY Exercise bike? It’s not DIY anything. These are not hacks, it’s simply “buying a bike trainer”

Why is an egg-white omelet a “pervert’s” omelet? I don’t have them often but I’ve had quite a few of those in my day and I consider my sexual proclivities to be fairly normal.

This. Exactly what my dog did. He ran up and started barking and antagonizing the moose. As terrified as I was for my dog there was no way I was getting as close as he was to pull him back. Moose can be really, really mean and are gigantic. You don’t want to be anywhere near one. 

Buying a bike trainer does NOT equal building an exercise bike or building a Peloton bike. It’s just buying a trainer which hundreds of thousands of people have done over the years.

You change gears on the bike to change resistance when using a “dumb” trainer which is what you’ve got. Smart trainers can be controlled by the workout app but usually run in the $600-$1600 range.

Texas is a big state, stop generalizing. I’m from “your area” too and dispute at least half of what you’re saying.

Thanks. That curing thing might finally give me a use for boiled egg yolks. If the white and yolk are not completely mixed together, I just can’t do yolks at all. I can do a normal omelet or scrambled eggs but I strangely prefer the taste of egg whites to eggs with full yolks so I’ve had a “pervert’s” omelet or three

Resorting to name calling. Classic. You must be a Trumper. Anyway, I’m thankful to the two friends that came over and made sure I had food to eat and could manage in the days when I could barely move. I’m sure no one would have bothered for someone like you. 

As a devout member of the I Hate Mayo club, this is a wonderful day. 

Yeah, I’m pretty sure you can. In fact, I know you can because I’ve had a couple friends come by to help me (I had an accident just before all of this really exploded here). I guess you you meant to say that in your opinion, you shouldn’t visit a friend.

That sounds like a much bigger hassle than going with frozen

This is exactly why I only eat the rotisserie chicken. It’s the only one of the three you can tell is actually chicken

The only valid answer to this is you really need to stretch your legs. You don’t gain 2 minutes by standing early. You *might* gain 10-20 seconds. You still have to wait behind all the normal people who’s seats are in front of yours who logically wait to stand until it’s their row’s turn to enter the aisle.

Wow, Colman in everything these days. I mostly know her from Broadchurch, which is kind of a British The Killing.
