Or just have that discussion like adults? “Hey, honey, this is basically a dream toy from my childhood, and I know it’s a lot, but I’d be willing to cut back on my spending on X and Y hobbies for a while to make up for it, and we’re financially secure enough that it’s not going to break us”  If you’ve got a credit…

Any time a comment flagged for hate speech is removed and the poster banned, everyone who starred it should be banned as well.

That underside really doesn’t look bad, and as I said in the first post, cleaning up what you can and then doing a coat of bedliner in the places that’ll keep taking abuse (underside, wheel wells, etc.) could easily turn this into a Jeep that keeps running until its OTHER jeep-related problems do it in (rather than…

I want to point something SUPER important out: The men’s team can lose EVERY GAME and make more money than the women’s team does if they win every game.  Bonuses included.

Nah.  At this point, the entire electorate is basically either: Trump is awful and we’ll vote for literally anyone else, or Trump is great and fuck anyone else.  So the real question for Dem candidates is “Who actually gives a fuck about the voters who are the future of the country, and the policies the majority of…

And honestly, depending on how the rust currently is, fixing it and bedlining the underside might be an actual option.

Not only should it be sexual assault charges, but also production of child pornography, regular assault and battery, destruction of property, emotional abuse, and literally anything else that can be thrown at him.  He was fucking methodical, knew beyond a shadow of a doubt exactly what he’d done (he literally…

Meanwhile I’m working on custom-designing a machined metal mouse with bearings instead of teflon pads that’ll weigh nearly a pound because they just *do not* make mice heavy enough, even with weights.

I really need to look at the FIFA rules on what constitutes a goal under their rules because I, in my many years of youth league refereeing and playing, have always understood it as “if the ball breaks the plane of the goal without having been touched or held by the hands of a player other than a goalie, it’s a…

And that’s not even counting fields that are insanely expensive to study and have very limited return, such as A.V. archiving (only three English-speaking schools in the world have programs for it and the average salary is about $40k but the loans you need can get over $150k).

I’m not gonna drive back home through the forest at night.  WAY too high a chance of a deer or bear encounter.

I really need to start remembering that I live less than 2 hours away and could easily just GO to one of the launches.  I’ve got a KSC annual pass, too, so it’d only cost me the gas.

No fucking shit. If you’ve got a group of ten people and four are insistent on going to Outback, three want to go to Carrabba’s, two want Red Lobster, and one wants to go to Subway, but the two who want Red Lobster both say “but I’m also okay with Carraba’s” and the Subway guy goes “I don’t care as long as it’s not…

OPD, and a lot of penninsula police departments and sheriff’s offices in general down here, do NOT fuck around with fash groups, especially after Gainesville.  It was weird to be fully prepared for the cops to tear gas and kettle us at this Trump rally and instead just...... not need any of the shit I brought with…

Hell, the majority of “off-road” that people will do with a SUV can be handled by most minivans, too. My parents have a Town & Country (the predecessor to the Pacifica) and regularly take it camping, either on its own or with their pop-up behind it. It can easily handle even extremely out-of-the-way campsites without…

This is seriously one of my favourite films because it’s, like..... just a film? It’s a standard love triangle romcom that just happens to feature two women ending up together, rather than making any sort of big deal about it. It’s *normal*, and came out at a time when queer love was decidedly not considered to be.…

There’s a huge difference between 50ms latency between your game client and the server, and you and the game client, though.

Yeah, like.  Where I worked, we *liked* having the inspector come first thing in the morning, because we knew our stuff was pristine no matter what, he could look for weeks and not find a violation, and the sooner he arrived the better the chances were that he wasn’t there during our lunch-to-close rush.  The worst…

Get yourself a bag of rolls from your grocery store; they’ve probably got some that’re damn close to the McRib bun roll. Banquet Pork Riblets are the closest I’ve found over the years, and they’re damn cheap, too. The sauce they come with is nearly perfect, season to your liking, and add the toppings of your choice…
