Clicked on that link and saw the 'Democrats have shut down the Government for...' ticker. The adults are in charge.

I want to believe something will happen, but I just can't.

Because it was the Clintons. Everyone knows that.

@Sbbruin having a Simpsons reference for damn near everything is one of the things that makes Surly great. Keep it up.

Winter Weather 2025 - Arctic Blasts or Sweaty Ass?
Okie State replied to NorthLoop's topic in Daily Texan
Well my weather app shows 86 with 80 percent humidity on Sunday. The two days of cool weather were nice I guess. -
Not visible and I'm doing something similar. I'm installing steel C-Channel. Routing out the slots and installing using flush threaded inserts. They won't necessarily pull a cupped slab flat, but supposedly help to keep it flat.

This is a 94x34x1.75 black walnut top I had ordered for our kitchen island a few years back when we had it renovated. We weren't quite ready for install when it arrived so, like an idiot, I left it in the box on the floor for about a week. Well of course it cupped about 1/4" on each side. I went ahead and finished and installed it, but It bothered me to the point that I ordered a replacement. I've had this one sitting on saw horses for two years with the idea that I would somehow fix it and turn it into a nice coffee table for our living room. Finally got around to stripping off the sealer I had applied and figured I'd try to reverse the warping before taking it somewhere to have it resurfaced. I dampened some towels, flipped it over with the convex side up, laid it directly on the towels, and ran a fan blowing over the top over night. 24 hours later and it's essentially completely flat. I have my doubts this is a permanent fix, but my hope is it stays flat for me to install some heavy duty c-channel braces that will stabilize it. We'll see. If that doesn't work I guess I'll find someone to plane it down, but I'll lose a decent amount of material so I'd prefer not to go that route.

As previously mentioned it's likely the market would just adjust with higher prices until payments end up back to where they were. Same shit has happened with cars and 84 month notes.

50 year mortgage means price goes up, insurance goes up, taxes go up, payment stays the same, and you die before the loan is paid off. Sounds good to me.

Keep it up old man. You can lie about a lot of shit, but telling people their bills are going down when they continue to go up seems like a losing strategy.

Imagine how stupid you would have to be to believe food prices are cheaper today than they were a year ago.

Beer 2025: Not Cider Greenspoint You Faget
Okie State replied to HenryJames's topic in Food and Travel
One of my go to beers anytime I see it on tap. -
I just don't see any reason at all to buy non-stick. Any advantage they have is offset with disadvantages. Combo of stainless, carbon steel, and cast iron is all you need for the rest of your life.

Always love the slow motion 'fuck you mother fucker!'

Art Deco is probably my favorite design style. Happy to hear the Orange Turd dislikes it.
