Ahhh... it’s not just me suffering this. Had this exact experience on Saturday going to a store. Wife says, “Take this left, it’ll save you the headache of going to the other entrance.”

No screaming unless death is less than 1 second away, DO NOT GRAB the driver’s arms or any other body parts in an attempt to get his/her attention. You see danger ahead, say so in a manner than helps me avoid it. Grabbing my arm while screaming and pointing is useless and takes my attention away from getting us out of…

Exactly. I did a timing belt on my 1986 Nissan Sentra in the driveway in a day using only basic hand tools. Today you need some specialty tools and depending on the vehicle, probably a laptop and the correct software. And you’re not finishing that job in a single day by yourself.

I will say this about that. You can buy a cheap torque wrench from Harbor Freight and it will say that it’s calibrated. The wrench is $25. Is that calibration any good? Not in my experience. But guess what? You can find a calibration company near you that will calibrate that wrench for you. And if it can’t be…

Between $199 and $390 depending on which one you go with. They have them on Amazon. I thought they were some cheap knock-offs when I first saw them so I went straight over to FLIR’s website and discovered they’re not. I mean, there are probably some cheap knock offs out there, but this wasn’t one.

Not completely pointless... but decided I couldn’t live another day without a FLIR One,

I was thinking something along those lines as well... like do you really need shocks and springs if you’re using 1/2" conduit? And he brazed them together? Holy shit... I mean if you do that correctly then you’re not huffing the zinc fumes but it notes he did this in his garage so he was probably huffing zinc oxide…

Beats the hell out of CBS’ All No Access

Well, I was partially correct... actually, more correct now that I think of it. “We can just replace the cats sir.”
“Nah, fuck it.”

Sounds like a neat fantasy, but that thing’s almost level with the parking lot. This looks more like someone was told to move their shitbox or it was just abandoned. After numerous times of having to clear snow around the shitbox  with a huge loader, the operator finally looked at this thing, let out a huge sigh, said…

Found knotweed on my father’s property after he died and we were cleaning the place up. It was in a stream bed too... went down with gloves, a sponge and Roundup. Careful not to get it into the water and only on the leaves. Took a few applications, but it all died and dried up. Cut it down, piled it up away from the…

Honestly, they recommend using alcohol, but you’re not going to be able to soak your entire braincase in a bucket of solvent without some serious issues arising, never mind making sure you don’t light yourself on fire. For something like this, I would go with mineral oil.  Won’t dry your skin or hair out, isn’t going…

But that’s why I suggested keelhauling! When was the last time anyone used that punishment? Think of the shock on, shoot, everyone’s face, if that was the suggested punishment. Never mind that the last time anyone was keelhauled the ships didn’t have huge propellers on them or that the rope used would get tangled in…

Rip that stuff out! And while you’re hunting the privet, be on the lookout for other invasive plants in your area like Japanese Knotweed or Oriental Bittersweet. See link below and get to work! I have the Oriental Bittersweet in my yard and that shit is HARD to kill. And if you run across Giant Hogweed, notify the…

As a person (not black, but still a person) who didn’t finish college via the traditional path I can say that it is way harder than you might think to get your degree this way. At first I was kind of embarrassed but when I started meeting other people in the workplace who had done the same I noticed something. Anyone…

Watched it over the weekend and it was meh. I kept wondering where Spinderella was in the whole thing... all I can imagine is that between the 3 of them, the whole thing soured to the point that just getting 2 of the 3 on board with the project was a nightmare.

Yeah, neither is an actual option given protections under the Bill of Rights and neither are actually funny. But leaving a noose in someone’s bunk, a black man’s bunk no less, should qualify as a threat against his life. Having NCIS show up to investigate definitely raises some awareness of the issue facing the…

You don’t think keelhauling would be funny? Falls more in line with leaving a noose in someone’s sleeping area than a few lashes on deck.

There’s a very old (pre internet) article out there somewhere titled “How To Make Your Own Atomic Bomb”. I recently lost my digital copy of it due to some ransomware, but for years I had it hanging behind my desk.
