so you sent out some unsolicited junk mail....you must be very proud

this is probably the most useless tip ive ever seen on here

that's really not true. some cars have cheaper materials and are put together shoddily and some are just plain poorly designed. i owned exactly 1 american car, which died at 75k. my dad had a mercury which rattled itself to pieced by 100k, and im talking interior falling apart, the dash separating, locks unlocking and…

the aveo, the versa and the cruze aren't really cars you want to own or drive though, the materials are straight up flimsy. and they aren't fun in anyway. hondas are amazing though. great reseale value, easy to fix, cheap, reliable and fun to drive if you get them with a stick. the only flaw is they rust up if you…

just have the maid do it, that's what she's there for. or if she has the day off, then the butler.

some cars are harder to work on because they have stuff like tire pressure sensors and all sorts of crap that gets checked while the brakes are getting done, parts for lets say bmws and mercedes are more expensive as a rule if you go oem. i can do the brakes on my honda for 40 bucks, but thats cause its a honda and i…

different cars have different costs, if you drive a ferrari you better believe your brake job will cost over 300

ohhh recalcitrant, i read rectal something at first. nevermind

@brackenthebox: i didnt say cheaper, i said better for the environment. the grocery delivery service charges a gas surcharge and a delivery fee so of course having 1 truck and 1 driver costs less. but just because it costs less it doesnt mean its better for the environment

@jphender: totally different amazon is way cheaper than best buy and has free shipping. food delivery service costs more than just going to the supermarket. you pay a delivery fee and a gas surcharge.

@Thena: the truck drives around all day long and idles during stops because it has to constantly run heavy duty a/c to cool all the stuff. compared to 20 cars making a 10 minute trip. so total time for 20 cars is 200 minutes. total time for truck (which uses way more gas per mile) is 12x60 or 720 minutes. now which is…

@PGWG: think about it for a second of course one truck driving around ALL DAY for 12-14 hours definitely makes more pollution that 20 cars that make a short trip, plus its not like they turn off the lights at the supermarkets just because some people get peapod deliveries so i dunno what that warehouse argument is…

food gets handled and packaged enough, i don't want anyone else handling it yet again. not to mention its more expensive and horrible for the environment, a whole bunch of trucks driving around because you're too lazy and self important to go grocery shopping. it's a good service for disabled people, but if you are…

@mrjeremiahross: i installed greasemonkey and a bunch of ad blocking scripts so that i never have to see any ads ever. that includes facebook and gmail not only regular web. sometimes i turn it off and refresh just to see the difference and immediately turn it back after the right side of the screen gets eaten by all…

i wish there was some kind of ad killer for iphone and android that would get rid of ads forever. pandora is by far the worst offender, every single song has an ad and every few there is a full screen video or voice ad. ive had to resort to only using last.fm because if i hear another ad for lexus or babson mba, i…

@Ben R: for me it was a safety issue, more than anything. cause the suction cup mounts leave marks on your windishield so the car thieves know you might have some goodies in there. that actually happened to me. in the middle of the winter. these vent mounts are more incognito and are easier to reach and dont obstruct…

@jcongdon: don't worry about it, the heat doesn't affect it. i have one of these vent mounted things, except i didn't make it, i bought it for 3 bucks on meritline.com

anyone try splashtop to watch netflix on android phones? and if so is it worth it? do you have to be on the same wifi network to use it?

i only get warranty on stuff i cant fix myself such as tires cause those things are expensive and are constantly exposed to stuff that could potentially damage them. different story with electronics though cause chances are if its electronic i can fix it myself

i like citizens, they pay you to go paperless. every time you use checking online to pay a bill or a debit card in any store you get money back. I get 10 bucks from them every month. its not much but its better to get money back on your checking than paying for it. plus their overdraft fees are lower than anyone and…
