i once filled a 1-5 rating survey out with straight 3's all the way down—they serviced my car with the things i brought to their attention. everything was adequate, so i filled out the survey that way. they didn’t buy me a puppy, put me in a free new car, or do my laundry.  they also didn’t leave greasy hand prints…

Your primary home isn’t an investment? That’s the most ridiculous statement I’ve heard on here. It’s real estate. Sure, it might not go up in value in the short term, such is the risk of an investment. But it probably will in the long term given history. It’s interesting your advice on the stock market acknowledging…

Welcome to the Cancel Culture, I don’t like this, so no one else should do it then. 

Gonna go ahead and save this one for the next time someone asks me to demonstrate post-Gawker’s looney ideological crusading.

Yes, making fun of kids for what they eat is bad. No one is disputing that. But the eventual ACCEPTANCE of that food is bad too now? Fuck off, that makes no sense.

Both the CDC and WHO recommend that a mask fit snugly around your mouth and nose, which rules out buffs

I’m all in on this. Just bring the old show back. It’s time to get things started. 

I wish the used the What3Words model. Much easier to communicate.

You know what I like about AllRecipe - it gives you the recipe. I don’t have to scroll for 3 days past a novella about how the recipe changed your families life, made you the hero of every social function ever, and retroactively won World War I. Just give me the bloody recipe (or give it first, then write your magnum…

Skimmed through the article and a few comments, so apologies if these were mentioned: Shop towels and a big old piece of cardboard to lie down on. As careful as you are, or as effective as funnels are, you may get a little oil where it shouldn’t be, so something to wipe them up with is good to have. And the big piece…

Do check the internet about this for your particular vehicle. Some have quirks that should be known beforehand. For example certain 4Runners drain their oil onto a frame member spreading it out and raining down in multiple places. Pre-prepare a chute to direct the oil to the container.

DO NOT UNDO YOUR DRAIN PLUG WITH THAT SHITTY “UNIVERSAL” WRENCH. It is a sure fire way to strip the bolt. Get a real set of box end wrenches. It’s $19 for a metric set from Harbor Freight.

Intellectually I know the Charmin I have left will last a month and a bit.

Agreed, they are overall nice and have good profiles but the detailing makes things look bulky or chunky. Two big boxes in front, two big boxes stuffed under the seat, and wheels straight out of the mid-80s. I know its the complete antithesis of H-D but give some of these things some finesse and lightness, it really…

Looks like a future version of my 1995 S2 Thunderbolt.

Saw the chart, was not particularly impressed.

I’ve always thought “influencer” was a bullshit “career” for people with more vanity than intelligence. Stories like this only strengthen that belief.

though the National Auto Dealers Association denied that it was common

So, with your fear of massive spiders, David, are you now the King Pao Chicken?

Your main point is correct re: cleaning your car, but this is wrong:
