  1. Gold coating has become far too accessible. Plenty of gold coated C-class Mercedes running around Thailand, there's no cachet to gold any more. Gotta find the next way to show that you have way too much money. Some larger pics of Bugatti:
  2. Goddammit. How do I switch over to that universe?
  3. Untrue. String a bunch of canned corn on the fly hook, put it below a slip sinker, toss it out there, clip a bell on the rod tip, and sit and read a book. <ducks>
  4. 110 Anniversary Bugatti Chiron was spotted in Bangkok this past weekend. Cambodia plates that say "BOSS." One of 20 in the world.
  5. Suspicious timing. I think your kids asked them to hold it until your birthday.
  6. Man, I love carp fishing! It's lazy and easy and they're great fighters. String some canned corn onto a hook, toss it out behind a slip sinker, clip a little bell on the rod tip, and just sit and read a book.
  7. You rang? (bought these this year, pic is from the seller)
  8. Quite good handwriting.
  9. Gave the Rage emoji only to help you toward getting all 6 rep responses for the post. Not actual rage.
  10. Note to everyone else: Don't ask about opportunity costs of anything, ever.
  11. Downstream won't make it run rich or lean any, it is only there to verify cat function. Engine fueling uses the upstream O2 for feedback.
  12. Eh. Tell this to all the people who bought Rtic coolers with "7yr warranty" only to have Rtic cancel and change the warranty to a pitifully short period and not cover their failed products from prior.
  13. Bunch of truck guys I know have added skid plates to their trucks just to deter cat thieves. (Otherwise no actual off-road need.) This is a massive problem nationwide right now, and there is very little enforcement being done. The easiest place to crack down is the buyers (the scrap yards who are paying cash to people walking in with random cutoff cats), but it isn't a priority for anyone.
  14. Pics of lady rep?
  15. Cayenne has always had some real off-road chops, despite 99.999% of them being used for school pickups and the mall. https://newsroom.porsche.com/en/2022/products/porsche-cayenne-anniversary-20-years-cayenne-s-transsyberia-off-road-athlete-29318.html
  16. The tone of this movie was a bit of a miss for me, it swung too hard into gory macabre to fit the fun comedy feel that the trailer gave, and it really didn't need to. Plenty of good acting and laugh out loud moments, a plot that actually had surprising depth and development, and fantastic characters. Visually gorgeous. Would have been just a good with less gore, and appealed to a wider audience. That said, fun mindless action movie, good one to rewatch on a plane. Lemon was great.
  17. I'm really craving this right now:
  18. Also South Korea, apparently.
  19. #teamOnethread
  20. These days? Unless you really want phone control or apps with preprogrammed recipe temps, save your money and buy anything. The generic Monoprice and Inkbird units will do just as well. Only thing is if you plan to run a big water bath, you will want a higher powered one, OR just use two units in one bath. Be aware you will need to plug into two different circuits if the total wattage is over 1500w. I got to where I stopped using any of the wifi and smart app functions and I much prefer a dumb unit with "set temp and turn on" only. Simplicity.
  21. Highly recommend the left one, or ask them to put in even less of the colored flake. You'll never find anything you drop on the right side one.
  22. This. Still own an e30 and 46m3. Don't cross shop the new ones at all. And this. Owned an e38 from new and absolutely loved it. The next gen Bangle gutted me, really wanted to continue the ownership but just couldn't with that fugly abomination. Went S-class and have never looked back to BMW. Also owned an M Roadster. I really was a huge BMW fan and a customer that <should> have been easy to keep loyal for life, and they've somehow not only made me lose interest, but actively repulsed me. Ultimate Driving Machine died a long time ago.
  23. Just say no to nostrils.
