I had a couple of friends with Sondeks and I never understood the love of the thing. I kind of thought it was blah looking and didn’t sound any better than any good turntable of the time. For $60K, I can think of a lot of things that would improve my life to buy and still have enough left to buy a stupidly expensive

My ‘86 IROC Camaro wasn’t a terrible running car as long as the computer, sensors, injectors, and who knows what else wasn’t messing up. I had a modded exhaust, a cam, light head porting, some mods to the TPI mainifold and the injectors were replaced by some aftermarket ones as they failed one at a time again and

The not using the sidewalk part is what gets me. It’s like 8 feet away, and they walk along the street instead. I don’t get it. The traffic alone would make me want to get off the road, especially the trucks going to/from a yard on that road, but that doesn’t seem to phase them. They are almost always walking to/from

I’m in Toledo, actually, I went to the West Rd WC a couple of years ago and it was a lot better than the one in Ann Arbor I had been going to when I go up that way. If I’m 20 minutes or closer to the Woodhaven store, I always hit it. Most of my life, WC was something I would eat when I was in Columbus for the

It’s a 45 MPH road and people ride your ass if you slow down at all, but you’re probably right. At this point I’m pretty paranoid anytime I go down it at night. In daytime, the main worry is the people from the trailer park running the stop sign to turn left or right onto the road. That’s the same area that has no

Not the ones from the WC I go to, on West Road in Woodhaven MI. The best ones I’ve ever had come from there. The onions are toasted more, and they just don’t taste much like the frozen ones. I don’t get up there often, but if I’m about to get something to eat, it’s a bag of 10 sliders and a large fry.

LOL. Your comment is like a friend’s wife would make, she totally hates WC to the point she doesn’t even want to get a drink there. 

They should be taken out and smacked upside the head until they learn ketchup has no place on a slider! I order mine plain, they can keep the damn pickle and anything else they want to put on them. Just bun, meat square, and onions...perfect.

I’ve never had anything like that at a WC, so I don’t know. The frozen ones are totally different than the ones made at a WC. 

I drive on a very dark road about 3 times a week, no streetlights, and very little light from the closed up businesses along that stretch. A couple of times a month, I come up on some stumbling kids, usually pre driving age, walking along the shoulder, dressed entirely in black or dark blue. Between their dark

When Sonic came to town I was really looking forward to going, as I had relatives who raved about it. Wow, was I disappointed. Easily the most tasteless burger I had in a very long time. I thought maybe they forgot to season the meat, but the next burger I had at another store across town was the same. Culver’s came

You can see carbon fiber get destroyed everytime there is an NHRA race on FS1.

Not as bad as I feared/thought, only $54,820. About 10K higher than the sticker of my 2018 Challenger Scatpack. Premium high GT in Rapid Red Metallic, no stripes. Auto, 3.55 gears, black interior. I like brightly colored cars but the interior has to be black or dark grey, I really dislike colored interiors. Has most

My family has run a army/navy/department store for over 70 years and the one single really bad decision my dad made during his time as president of the company was hiring a husband and wife theft prevention team. They were great at their jobs, catching customer ofter customer stealing stuff as minor as a pack of fish

The people around here are so confident they won’t be caught, they cut the converter off a coworkers car in a brightly lit parking lot, with visible cameras all over the building. The car was parked in the one spot that prevented identifying the car they came in. They ended up getting caught at one of the nearby car

The only thing I never got at all, damaged or just late, was a radio I bought from an Los Angeles seller. I wondered where it was and checked my email and I got a notice from Fedex saying the “Item was destroyed, train derailament!”. Yep, BNSF had a huge one in Texas the day before. Containers everywhere. A friend had

I hope not, UPS is nicely boring, my stuff always shows up, and if the shipper/seller packed it correctly, intact. I work on old electronics, and the truly pitiful packing that happens sometimes just amazes me. When I contact them, they are always shocked that I didn’t think they did a good job of packing. Putting a

Somehow, at 56 years old now (the dog “incidents” were about 25 years ago, he looks 75) he’s managed to stay out of jail and not get himself beat for perving out the wrong person. He’s pretty wealthy, but not wealthy enough to get someone to marry him, but he almost did about 20 years ago. No, I never saw her, I just

I ordered a tool online and FedEx was the carrier. I got an email saying it had been delivered, with a supposed picture of the package at my front door. The problem was the pic was from over 4 months earlier, a day or so before my birthday, I recognized one of the 4 boxes in the picture as being something I had

The stupidity of modern day rail management exceeds my expectations constantly. Anytime the economy hiccups, they lay off people, and mothball/sell/scrap engines, and it bites them in the ass every time. NS swears they have learned their lesson, but when the next generation of clueless executives get in charge, they
