I still get mail addressed to the people who lived at my address 3+ years ago. Usually it's junk mail, collections, etc. I did the return to sender thing, then I took a bunch of it to my post office and asked them what they should do. The woman went through the mail, then swept it all into the trash can and advised…

The only Crosstour I've seen in person was slammed on the ground with tucked wheels.

They look like puppies just running around awkwardly.

It's not that difficult to just change out your sockets. If the boxes are all metal, most newer sockets will have a grounding tab that grounds the socket to the box. If you have to swap boxes, it's more complicated and annoying but not impossible. Just don't start working on live circuits - turn them off in your…

I'd highly recommend getting a trainer. My biggest aversion to going to the gym was being afraid I was doing something wrong or looking dumb and just constantly being worried. With a trainer, they tell you exactly what to do, help plan out a routine, and get you comfortable with a regular exercise program. Sure,…

Because fumbling around for keys when you have an emergency can cost precious seconds.

I think under glow is both awesome and hilarious. If I didn't hate automotive electrical work so much, I'd have some on my car now.

I used to carry a length of 2x4 in the back of my 97 GSX for that very reason. It's not that I couldn't afford new struts for the hatch - it's just that I knew that if I replaced them that I'd probably break something else in the process.

Ally Bank has no fee checking, and they refund your ATM fees.

I usually try to do it as soon as I get home from work before I make dinner. When I get home from the gym, I make a shake really quick and drink that while I'm making dinner.

Many larger companies have on-premisis gyms and trainers. If you wanna go lift during the day it's usually encouraged. This is doubly so when your job requires creative thinking - working out can help a lot with that.

Yeah people on the road give me a lot of unwanted attention in my STI because of the wing. I'll bet you get a lot less drama in a wagon or hatchback. My wingless 07 STI got 0 unwanted attention.

I have a super sensitive face, and the only thing that doesn't give me incredible razor burn is the Fusion Proglide. It's definitely expensive, but I only shave once or twice a week, and the cartridges last me about 3 weeks. I follow my shaves with Neutrogena razor defense products.

Yeah I definitely had it fixed. I had some work done to it while it was under the knife as well. The Subaru paint chips away so easily but after the front of the car was repainted it didn't chip at all. I sold it and bought a newer STI a few years later... she only has 16k miles on her and has practically no paint…

I had a deer jump on my hood in my old STI when I was going about 30mph. It did about $7500 in damage. The whole hood was ruined, bumper was broken, fender, headlight, etc. Because it jumped on the hood, it also punctured the top mount intercooler and bent the airbox for my intake. That bastard got up and ran away…

Agreed. Definitely a good start but this is not some shortcut to 6 figure salaries like a lot of people seem to think.

When I moved from IT to full time programming about 5 years ago, I had the worst time with RSI. I still carry wrist braces around with me every day just in case because it's so incapacitating.

I'm with you on this. I'm an inbox zero kinda guy and the inbox view in Gmail is already so slow that I rely on 3rd party clients to just view it over IMAP. If they want to provide some value so that I'm inclined to use the web interface, they should probably focus on making it more performant and reliable.

Yeah, no. These are definitely the best wheels ever.

Trust me, nothing feels like an Aeron. That chair will give you butt sweat and an Aeron won't.
