Look, an airbag isn’t going to save your ass if you get in an accident in one of these. If a Viper wants you dead, you dead.

A banana is also a good way to remove fish bone.

Does the car’s performance suffer when you drive it to Cincinnati?

I have an old pivoting monitor arm. I have two shelves at differing heights that can both be used as keyboard/mouse surfaces, one while sitting, one while standing.

Pretty amazing that the Germans would hassle the Hoff like that.

Congrats on getting MARRIED!

I workout at home, I don’t like people and especially smelly ones.

US - no. Europe - yes.

Simple.

My niece has a habit of kind of getting on a roll and speaking very loudly and quickly, and I just keep softly and slowly remind her to “use your inside voice.” Or “library voice.” I think by saying it to her softly, it makes her realize that if she can hear me, then I can hear her. It seems to help.

Two of my adult children follow my example of almost never having an outside voice, even if people have to ask me to repeat myself. If there are 5 people talking at the same time, I’d rather not say anything than having to shout.

ambient noise (toys, tv, music) making it feel/be difficult to be heard? Feeling of being unheard unless loud? (ie do you only respond promptly when it’s unbearably loud?) Habit of speaking loudly to child? Hearing check for child? Reminders a la “my ears are close and listening...shhh” (I promise you, it’s not just a…

Seconded! I am a new parent, the always up to 11 volume of toddlers and children is my biggest annoyance.

Before I even clicked into it, I knew this had to be the Philippines. I see it firsthand whenever I go, and there are a LOT of sketchy roadside “vulcanize” or “re-tread” places there.

All three standing up proud and tall in my odd tools bucket. Loosely held together with the rolls of duct tape and blue tape.

Wait! Couldn't you just remove the master brake booster and valve cover, lift the engine up, and then apply the wobble-socket-wrench+stub-extension+wobble+extension+wobble+wobble-socket arrangement?!?

And if it falls somewhere in the engine bay, but doesn’t hit the floor, have a claw-type pick up tool handy. Telescoping magnets work too, but they like to stick to everything else (like the firewall) as you’re trying to feed the magnet down to the dropped nut.

We got a bullet for the kiddo. The doctor recommended trying every vegetable and fruit in order to isolate any allergies. So i made an alphabetical list of veggies and fruits. 3 days per item, so as to properly deduce if any allergies did exist and then on to the next one. It was fun watching her eat goopy alfalfa,…
