I’ve seen Pretty With A Pistol’s situation go down a few times and it drives me absolutely mad. But, as a man, any action I have taken in the past has been misconstrued as identical behavior. I’ve called guys out and told them they should probably back off, and been accused of claiming territory. I’ve told men to get…

I haven’t played D&D (or anything like it) in almost 20 years. Aside from the uproarious laughter of a bunch of teenagers making stupid jokes and all that, the only think I liked was detailing out my character in one of those composition notebooks*. Specifically the 5x5 boxes/sq inch variety. Looks cool, but wouldn’t…

I mobile order so that I don’t have to have these interactions. I tip when they get the drink right. If not, I don’t. If I turn around and ask them politely to remake it (Because most of them think a flat white is just a whole milk latte, it is not...) and they do it right, without getting indignant, which is often…

Most consumer-grade managed switches (and any regular managed switch) will have all the ports on “auto” speed selection. Auto will drop the speed from 1000 -> 100 if devices on the other side aren’t using it or say “I don’t need 1Gbps”.

Kettlebells this morning involved some goblet squats, but I busted out 40 of them yesterday along with 40 squat jumps (which are basically easy frog jumps)

Allegiant has 31" everywhere and somehow it feels more roomy than American and Delta. Seats don’t recline, but they’re generally pretty short hops.

This shit works wonders. I owned a house a few years back that would get overrun as soon as the temperature got over 50F on a consistent basis. I’m talking open the back door for 10 seconds to let the dog out and get half a dozen solid bites. Warm, wet days came with a constant buzz from the little bastards.

Gold Bond powder. Oh, yes.  Medicated if you like supercooling powers.

Then you’re more in control of your finances than others. I’m not in that boat, either.  My mortgage + taxes + insurance and other house related shit doesn’t come close to 1700/month, and I still consider that far too much to dump into my home.

The 3x annual income rule is BS unless you’re debt free or damned close to it. You can’t afford 360k on 120k/yr if you’re stupid and think you can also afford payments and insurance on a Tesla Model S and Range Rover and day care, and lawn service, etc.

Played through the demo as Therion, picked up H’aanit and then Ophilia. I was able to play through to Ophilia’s boss by skipping her and H’aanit’s prologues. Ophilia really rounds out the team with her relatively casual healing and I was able to pretty easily take down her boss without leveling her too much (and…

That’s not been my experience. I’ve got custom cuts from them from time to time without much fuss.

Closest Whole Foods is 19 miles away. Now, I really like Whole Foods because their prepared foods area is really good. But there’s no way they can tempt me to run down the road for these deals.

Usually if I was trying to remove those I’ve got no qualms about slicing the exhaust pipe as it’s likely in worse shape.

LOL, fair!

I’ve had to deal with many of these. Grew up with winter for half the year and so anything under the car was guaranteed to be anything but nut-shaped after five or six years. You need a 9" angle grinder and even then if you have the wrong wheels you’ll never get them off. Eventually I’d torch them for 2-3 minutes,…

I’ve never heard of anyone using red Thread Lock in non-automotive or heavy industry applications (read: Super overkill on a bike), so it probably bonded. Looking at one of your other posts about it being a no-name bike, I’m sure that’s answer.

Damned straight I did. Basically I was out of town and forgot my shoes, so I needed regular pedals and had no tools. When I got home to switch them back to the CPDs, well, problems.

If it was old enough, the threads can become super corroded and fuse into one functional piece of metal over time. My older bikes have had this happen.

Adjustable wrenches have always been a crap shoot for me. But nothing escapes the vice grip, penetrating lubricant, and a torch.
