  1. I don't see the problem. If you want sides...make em.
  2. Lol I get the point, but you can't get shit for $250K anymore. Even in the burbs.
  3. I assume he already ate the rest. Right?.....Right!?
  4. They look nice, but I already have a grill and my beer fridge is not far enough away to justify a third fridge outside.
  5. I want to buy a second at that price, but don't really need it.
  6. The fact that there are 8 Nike logos on socks and sweatbands alone is hilarious.
  7. Gotcha. 72 at night and 74 during the day are my go to temps also. I did dial it up a couple degrees with this shitty weather though so it keeps the bill somewhat manageable. My in-laws keep theirs at 68-70 all the time and had a $600 bill last month. Yeah sorry that's insane.
  8. I don't understand how people keep their house at 68. I'm hot natured and that's too damn cold unless it's winter.
  9. Interesting. This is not the message that will make the rounds though.
  10. Monday seems like as good a day as any to make one. Think I'll give it a go.
  11. Our company actually does take action to reduce demand although it's likely more cost driven than to help out Ercot. Auto shades come down in the afternoon and it's like a cave in there. Gets noticeably warm at times also. You have to wonder if companies just start scrapping the whole office model at some point. It's a huge waste of resources and isn't exactly cheap to run and maintain.
  12. Was just thinking about that. Insert I've made a huge mistake gif.
  13. So what happens when the blue line crosses the purple line? Do we implode? Just talked to my wife and her office is blasting the AC at about 58 degrees so they're doing their part.
  14. Wasn't ESPN broke just a few years ago? Why do people keep saying they'll just make everyone whole on GOR? How would that work?
  15. I don't see how I can retire here. Hope my kids move somewhere else or don't mind us just visiting.
  16. No idea how accurate it is, but my weather app says we're 98 and feel like 109. Almost 9PM. Seems normal.
  17. I'm still under the worthless home warranty and it has 'pool coverage' which of course did not cover the leak in the drain line. Wonder if it covers a burned up pump.
  18. Can't fucking wait for August!
  19. Yeah mine was 3200 for about 10 hours a day when I moved in and it was pretty damn loud. Dialed it back to 2400 and it was much better, but didn't seem to be skimming enough. I think I'll do a combo of high/med/low and see how that goes.
  20. Thanks, I'll tweak the settings. I actually didn't have it running at all overnight. Is it better to have it going 24/7 I guess? Still learning all this stuff.
  21. My parents hid all the gifts in their bedroom and my little brother found the SNES like a month beforehand. We were bragging to all the kids on the bus about how we were getting one for Christmas. Did the whole pretend to be surprised bit on Christmas morning and everything. In hindsight it would have been better had we not known.
  22. I always point out to my wife when that one part I saved from ten years ago actually comes in handy. Fuck yeah I was right!
  23. Never had a Sega, but two neighbors did so I didn't need one. Sega Channel was pretty badass for its day.
  24. We bought the house in December so it was already here. I messed with the settings and dialed back the rpms so it's not as bad, but I need to actually do the math to figure out what speed I should be running it at to turn the pool over. Never enough time to do anything though.
  25. Fuck I miss the SNES. I bought the NES Classic instead and regret it now that I can't find a SNES Classic for less than $200. MarioKart and Donkey Kong Country are two of my favorite games of all time.
