I used to have a drawer to store those disposable bags. Kept them to use as small trash liners, etc. After only a few months, the damn drawer became stuffed to the gills. And that was for a single-person household.
Those bags are not banned, but they're simply not furnished here. It's supposed to encourage people to bring reusable bags....and guess what....I end up buying new bags on every single grocery trip and immediately trashing them at home, anyway.

No, Aggy and Tceh are shit.

Visiting NYC and was at some UT-ex bar, but it was also advertised to the USC alum so the patrons were half half.
Great game through most of it. At around T-5m or so, i remember accepting that slow sinking feeling of accepting a loss. (They had just scored a 2nd TD in the quarter, to our lone FG).
And then Vince Young happened.... those USC fans never had their mood flipped upside down so quick...

So I talked to my son a bit more yesterday. I think the more interest I expressed in the subject, the more he (my son) wants to just forget about it. Teenagers, lulz.
Anyway, this is what I learned:
- Son doesn't know the 'bama boy's real name. He says he asked once, but 'bama boy had to run and didn't answer. (very fishy)
- Son was introduced to 'bama boy by one of his current classmates (Jacob). Jacob apparently has known 'bama boy for 6 years. What's not clear is whether "known for 6 years" means "played video games online with him for 6 years" or "he used to live down the street before they moved to Alabama". But, if 'bama boy is playing a long game scam, he hatched the plan when he was 12 or so. That's some long game thinking for a young kid and not very likely. (lends some credibility)
- Son exchanged phone numbers with 'bama boy so they could exchange memes/jokes. I was quite upset about this and had a long talk with my son about not giving out his phone number to anyone he "meets" in xbox party chats. And the difference between a friend and an acquaintance. Dad Rage. 'bama boy apparently has sent some texts to my son and I will review them later, but I don't think any of them were related to the OP (mostly memes/jokes I expect).
- 'bama boy did not ask my son for any help. He apparently was just venting about his situation and he's done it in party chats indiscriminately of who's in the chat. Son says 'bama boy's situation is public knowledge among his (xbox) peer group.
All in all, it looks like 'bama boy has been dealt a shit sandwich.
he got catfished by a diddler.

No lock is theft proof. But some locks are more secure than others.
A thick and beefy D/U-shaped lock is generally the best for price-performance ratio. They're something like 30-80$. The mechanism can be combination or key'ed. Makes no real difference. A long time ago people discovered a vulnerability to the key lock but it's been fixed. A thief will not attack 1 or the other preferably. Motivated thieves will just try cut or pry the lock.
You want that lock the be the smallest practical size (a "mini" U lock is great). The trick is to lock the REAR RIM, INSIDE THE FRAME. This will secure the frame of the bike and the rear wheel at the same time. You cannot separate the frame unless you cut the rim and tire...which is practically impossible.
The reason you want a small lock (smaller than this picture) is because it reduces the space for someone to leverage a pry bar in there.
As for the seat, fix it with a fastener instead of quick release. While it can be defeated with a simple hand tool, most thieves aren't out to pick seats. The economics just doesn't work out. If you really cherry the seatpost and seat, apply loctite or something similar to it. In extreme cases, you can even chain up the seat saddle to the frame - use a bicycle chain.
The front wheel - again same story as the seat , it's simply not a target. If you care, use a cable lock like above. Again the cable lock is easy to defeat, but it just adds that extra margin of security against someone walking away with zero effort.
So the summary is, if the bike is not parked continuously in a place exposed overnight or for many many hours, a single U lock will generally suffice.

Channel surfing and the new teenage mutant Ninja turtle movie comes on.
It's got Megan fox, prominent muscle car product placement, wild ass space alien shit, shitty overly done cgi, etc... So I comment "this feels just like another shitty Michael bay movie, like transformers"
"No way, I like transformers, they're good, I've seen all of them"
And THAT was probably the dumbest thing I'll have heard in months.

You might want 3 days / 2 nights in halong. People arrive and depart from Hanoi central, and that's like a 3-4 hrs drive or so. First day and last day is essentially spent in a car, so it's a night of a slog if you only sleep 1 night on the boat.

Oil, salt, in oven for about 45-55 minutes in medium heat (until temp probe beeps).
Just like a steak, it's simple as fuck and comes out perfect. No need for fancy covers, foils, tents, rubs, brines, multi step processes.
Although yeah often I'll just pick it up from the grocery store.

I'm dying to try the Minke Whale. GET IN MA BELLY!!!!
No mockery for the cheap flight? Wife was pissed. I prefer to "invest" the money into food.
Most people visit Iceland due to the cheap promos out of BOS/NY and/or the free layover onward to Europe.
Plus, all the money will be burnt when there. Place is not cheap....

A friend of mine’s son just graduated from Tceh with a geology degree. He wants to get his hands dirty with a service company before going back for his masters in a couple years.
Any advice for the kid, other than next time don’t go to Tceh? He’s looking to start at the bottom...i moved cities, states, and countries often when i was young. had a legit reason for not buying a place. that said, if there was 1 advice i could give to my younger self: buy a fucking place.
rent it out if not occupying it. every place ive lived in and every prospective property i considered has ballooned in value.

A few weeks ago I was wearing my Speedmaster, and a guy said he loved my watch, that he was really into watches, and then asked me what model of Rolex it was. For a second, I wanted to fuck with him and say a Hulk or something, but I don't think he would have gotten the joke anyway
It's a Reference 2375 Cary Grant edition
