  1. Now that you mention it, I guess music is better than a buzzer. And apparently playing music along with the Samsung Dryer music is a thing on YouTube.
  2. I have a company vehicle that’s managed by Element. They are the fucking worst. Take it in for a 60,000 service and they approved an oil change. Changed brake pads and turned the rotors but wouldn’t pay to flush the brake lines. New tires but wouldn’t approve an alignment. They are cheapskates, and the car probably won’t last until 150,000 miles, which is how much I need to drive before getting my next vehicle. The service advisor hates them with the passion of a million suns and I don’t blame him.
  3. Where can I find the Xavier account. I feel a kinship with him.
  4. That definitely is a holy shit. Imagine getting impaled on that thing with the nearest ER 3+ hours away. Imagine the police report, cause of death: “Impaled by a fish”.
  5. At what point does sterilization of the homeless become part of the "treatment"?
  6. 10's what? Who the hell is 10? And who does he/she have that I want to fuck?
  7. Surprisingly it doesn't smell meaty, or even smell at all. Kinda like a regular wax candle, but there's no waxy smell when you blow it out.
  8. Gonna have to disagree with you on chiropractors. I have a guy who works on my back and I fee like a new person every time I leave his clinic. I went to see another guy who just focuses on the C1 to C5 vertebrae. I've been waking up with pain in my neck, right shoulder and elbow. Went in for an adjustment over the weekend, so I'm no longer in pain in the mornings. Chiropractic treatment IMO is not quackery.
  9. I get February, library and Worcestershire… but what about the other words?
  10. I skimmed about a 1/2 cup of beef fat from a soup I was making. Set it aside and let it congeal. Instead of dumping it, my daughter and I made a tallow candle. It was a fun little project at 930PM. Not sure why so late, but I guess it was a good time giving each other shit about our lack of candle making skills.
  11. Dude… you gotta spoiler that shit.
  12. A or B? Because I don't have $680K in change to buy him a share of A.
  13. Can't speak for everyone on this board, but I believe many of us can tolerate a little of financial pain compared to the masses. Extra $2-3K/year to account for tariffs will suck, but it's a small % compared to some uninformed Trump supported. I hope they fucking suffer under a Republican administration.
  14. My son has been bugging me since last week to start a brokerage account for him because "I'm going to buy 1 share of Google, 1 share of Apple, 1 share of Amazon, and 2 shares of VOO." So we go to the bank on Saturday, but the bankers are fully booked. He's disappointed, so I told him I'd give him $50. He said "No, it's okay, I don't want your money, I want to earn it." This is right after he asked me for a big box of Pokemon cards for Christmas.
  15. Oldie, but still makes me chuckle.
  16. No neck, shoulder and elbow pain this morning. First time in maybe 6+ months. Wish I hadn't waited so long to see this guy (again).
  17. After I posted last night, the headache got really intense so I took some advil and went to bed. As for the neck and shoulder pain, I still hurt a bit when I woke up at 4AM on the couch, but it was gone when I got up at 9. I know several people who go to the same chiropractor. When you meet him, he seems like a quack, but the results speak for themselves.
  18. I’ve had neck and shoulder pain for most of 2024, and finally went to see a chiropractor that specializes in just adjusting the top 5 vertebrae. The doc said I would feel discomfort for the rest of the day as my neck realigns, and he wasn’t joking. My neck feels like a toothpick holding up a cannonball. And I’ve had a headache that is still lingering after 10 hours. Going to shut it down and go to bed. Let’s hope it’ll feel better tomorrow.
  19. Don't ask me why. I just think it's funny.
  20. Found out that my son's BJJ instructor was a MMA fighter and was known as the "Arm Collector" because most of his wins were him putting his opponents in an arm bar. Dug a little more and am really impressed with his background. I bet he's dying inside teaching little kids. https://www.bjjheroes.com/bjj-fighters/givanildo-santana Main Achievements: World Cup Champion (2003) Pan American Champion (1999 brown, 2005, 2012 weight & absolute master) American National Champion (2009 master) Masters & Seniors World Champion (2001, 2002 weight & absolute, 2003, 2013) World No Gi Champion (2013 senior 2, 2014 master 3 weight & absolute) University League Champion (7x) Brazilian National Championship 2nd Place (1999, 2001, 2002) Pan American Championship 2nd Place (1999 brown absolute, 2006) Masters & Seniors World Championship 2nd Place (2012, 2013 absolute senior 2) Brazilian National Championship 3rd Place (2004)
