More stars! COTD! Nailed it.

Obligatory:

More stars for this! My wife and I have saved a LOT of money eating at home and brown bagging for lunch instead of eating out. Costs have been going up for a while (especially here in SF) and that’s made us think twice about going out. Now we consider going out for special occasions only.

In undergrad I used a Mazda B2000 pickup truck to travel back and forth to school. Yes, it was a complete crapwagon. Bare bones, manual, crappy heating and A/C, crank windows, bench seat, etc. It worked like a champ with a nice bed for hauling. Cheap and dependable. You can’t get anything like that now.

It depends. I’ve only flown in 1st class once on a trip from DFW to SFO after a rough business trip. I had a middle seat in the back of the plane which sucked. They were asking for people who wanted to pay for the last 1st class seat. It was only $149 to upgrade. Money well spent - I got a nice rest which I needed,…

As an avid backpacker, take your star!

I’m with you - “smart devices” are banned in my house. Period.

Siri was the first thing I disabled on my iPhone.

You could just use Google search... :)

Easy - don’t buy one. Problem solved.

Agreed - I’ve done my share of cleaning up after tourists who throw crap all over the trails.

Take your damn star!

That was nasty. Also, fuck Bayern

Nice reference to “Hey Mon” from In Living Color. Well done!

Thank you! Beat me to it!

Ah yes - RUF Yellowbird. Amazing car control considering no safety controls or anything to save your ass if something goes wrong.

It looks like the car she hit acted like a ramp and threw her into the air, but damn she was clearly flying down the straight even though the car was wrecked.

Yeah I know about them but they’re a real pain to deal with. The previous owner had one and it simply got in the way of everything given the layout of the kitchen. For some it would be an option.

My house doesn’t have a dishwasher because the kitchen never had one. Then again it’s just me and my wife, so we have no problem with it. It would require a major remodel to add one and frankly it’s not worth the cost. We also use little water and it doesn’t have that much time. I also have cookware that can’t even go…
