Oh, that’s nothing.

Someone did something like this to my wife at a Ford dealership. long story short. She called me and I went there and gave her my car and she left. I let them know I was waiting for her keys.

After reading this, I realize the dealership tried the hide the keys trick on me. We were arguing over some stuff, and they “misplaced” my keys...Luckily I had a tile on them and was able to quickly locate them, I wondered why my using a tile to locate my keys created such a commotion/interest from the manager and empl…

And that ain’t No Bull, my friend. In 2006 I went to Earnhardt to buy a stick shift of some sort because my teenage daughters were about to start driving and I have a 3-pedal rule when teaching driving. Anyhoo, I find a 2 year old Kia Sportage with low miles and 3 pedals. So we agree to a price and I go to the bank to…

Buying a used car with no history from a complete stranger still beats going to a car dealership in my eyes.

The sheer number of dealer hoarer stories that pop up in the comments on every single one of these articles is proof that it’s time to burn down all the dealerships, with the salespeople inside. 

My wife had a 1997 Civic HX that she was looking to trade for a 2002 VW Passat or other sedan type vehicle. We went to McKenna VW on Beach Blvd. in CA on a Tuesday evening to test drive a Passat that had the color and features she was looking for. As we sat down to talk turkey, they asked for the keys to her Civic so…

lol... ok, ignore the stuff like how protein molecules bind at the application of heat, the minor details of carbonized sugars and their components interacting with the materials in the non-stick surface and at what temperatures they’re being cooked at, the residue from previous cooking that binds itself to the…

my dogs periodically hook themselves on 3 foot cable charging a cell phone and hurl it across the room. if i had to rig a 20+ foot cable across my entire living room and try and play i might as well just invite a poltergeist to live with me, because this place would become a vortex of flying consoles and controllers…

Hi, I come from the future. So far there’s 365k deaths in the US. Don’t you look silly?

*Rechargeable* batteries are much cheaper than extra controllers. That’s about $18 for a pack of 4 AAs + a charger.

I bought a 4-pack of Duracell rechargeable batteries for my Xbox 360 controllers in February 11 2010 (I just looked it up because I didn’t remember how long I had them) and I’m still using them for my Series X controller. They still last a long time but the charge percentage indicator in the Xbox can’t tell reliably…

No snark read at all. My last set of Energiser AA have lasted me since 2013 (at the time for X360 controllers), only just at the tail of of 2020 did they start giving sub 20 hour performance (don’t blame them, with lockdowns game time has been up). So I bought another set of four for under $10 and while I expect those…

I wish they would just include rechargeable duracell AA’s and let the controller charge the batteries through a cable/dock. the current situation is asinine (can’t charge the controller batteries through the built in micro usb port, instead battery packs have to have a second connector to actually charge the batteries…

Yep, as others have said, 100% on board with this.

Well thank goodness for that deal. My AA rechargeables last wayyy longer than my DS4 internal battery, and when they run out they can be easily swapped rather than having to find a super long cable or suspend gaming while I charge the controller.

Before any silly suggestions get made, batteries are much cheaper…

I’m glad that they do. I much prefer swapping some rechargeable batteries than having to dock and charge a controller.

This is terrible advice on quantum levels. You’ve dressed it up nicely but ‘You must have lead him on’ is an adage as old and misogynist as they come. Of course, people should not use other people, but making that a gendered issue is totally disingenuous. You might just as easily write, ‘men should not expect to buy…

Remember: unless you're a first class passenger, Delta *hates* you. They're "re-vamping" their program to take miles from the crappy 95% of their customer base to double rewards for the top 5% - the only clients they really care about. If they could, they'd install a pressure door between first class and the rest of…
