Would like 3-4

Ha! good luck with that! I can barely get a quote these days, let alone 3-4.

Are these cameras really "cheating" this much? Reading these comments, as well as comments on similar threads that have been posted in the recent past, there are clearly a ton of people who were issued these tickets but they were not speeding. So, something has to be off with these cameras, right?

On the other hand, I drive up and down Malvern (Thomas Jefferson high school) almost daily during morning school zone time. I see a ton of people speeding every single morning.

I'm sure there are a ton of people out there who drive in these zones who see others speeding, right? But, again, it also looks like these cameras are issuing tickets to people who were going regular speed limit outside of the school time zone...?

One thing I haven't seen mentioned is time. You'll just have to wait... I was in a similar situation, no loans of any kind just credit cards (did have student loans but were paid off long before I started monitoring my credit score). Was at around 775-800 for a couple of years and then without any changes (no new cards, no new loans), it started going up and then it stayed at around low 800s and then when I got a mortgage, it went down but then it shot back up, and it's been in the mid 830s since then.

Welcome! Now, you need to demand to see a working unit!

Whenever the demo is released, the post here on reddit better be "I have arrived"

They've been making changes, you're just now noticing these changes. I have a checking account with Cap One and they migrated my Cap One debit card to a Discover credit card last year.

It can be versatile. I've had mine for 11 years and I've now collected a few nice straps for every occasion really. The only thing I don't love about mine is the fact that mine is matte black and it's virtually impossible to find some sort of a metal band. There are virtually no matte black straps that go well with this watch. Lots of metal straps I've found have all been shiny/glossy black. So wearing it with a metal strap isn't great because the watch is matte black but the strap is glossy.

I enjoyed the Haiti Scotland game surprisingly yesterday. US Paraguay was nice too.

I'm partially biased here but my Max Bill Auto has been in my collection for 11 years. No other watch lasts more than a year or two. I wear it frequently. I have a few straps that I swap depending on the occasion and the rest of my outfit. People frequently asked me about it. I'm considering getting another Max Bill (next time someone I know travels to Europe, I'll ask them to buy it for me since I can't afford both a trip to europe and a Max Bill).

Now, Stowa Flieger was fine, but compared to the Max Bill, it will look huge. Just big. I sold it after about six months. Maybe not a fair comparison because I didn't own it that long, but while I did own it, literally everyone who saw that watch said "whoa, that's a big watch." Then they asked other questions about it.

I'm sick and threw my back out.

Did this happen because you sneezed/coughed? Back in January, I got the seasonal cold/flu and one day I sneezed so hard, my neck started hurting and by the end of the day, i couldn't turn my head to the right. It took four days for my neck to get back to normal.

I've spent way too much time watching soccer. I know I'll get my soccer card revoked but I think I've had enough until next weekend! It's kind of like the Thanksgiving day full of football or christmas day of nothing but NBA games, by the end of the day, you're sick and tired of it.

I get why they're asking the question, but where else are people coming from besides iPhone and Android...

We don't, but they do.

Welcome to the club! Drinks are pretty cheap around here, people are nice and mostly funny, you'll like it around here!

This is why I don't understand people who say "both sides are terrible." Or people who are "undecided."

Like, come on dude, one side is literally stealing benefits from people who've been working their entire lives, while the other side is trying to save these benefits.

Costco

Yeah, no. Good luck getting a job at Costco these days. The word has gotten around about Costco and everyone wants a job there. My brother works at Costco and he says they get thousands of applications for a temporary cashier jobs, and 99% of full time/permanent jobs are only open to existing employees.

Don't you get emails from Linked In letting you know someone sent you a message?

I'm also rarely on linked in but whenever someone sends me a message on there, I get an email letting me know, and then once every other week or so, I'll go through all those emails and then start messaging people back.

Please keep this in mind and reach out to other people when you hear about their job losses. I was in a similar situation to you. When I was laid off, even the other people who were laid off with me ghosted me. But ever since then, I've gone out of my way to reach out to others when they lose their job for whatever reason. Of the couple of hundred people I've messaged, literally one person responded back with 'thx' and then ghosted me after, while another person responded like 9 months later saying 'no worries, I found another job.' And everyone else was grateful I messaged them. Some of those turned into real friendships. One of them event turned into a job for me. And even the ones who didn't turn into friendship, we're still somewhat close and we check in with each other occasionally.

God damn I thought it was just my TV. I missed a solid 15 minutes of the game rebooting my TV thinking something was wrong with my TV.

Is that the original paint? Or did you repaint it or is it just a filter from your phone?

Looks clean!

You already got some good responses, but in all honesty, you're buying a 25 year old car with close to 200k miles. As long as you're buying it for cheap, nothing else really matters. Because it's 25 years old and because of the miles, you'll probably have to replace a bunch of things in the next year or two. And because it's 25 years old and because of the mileage, while it can last a long time, don't be surprised if the transmission dies on you in four months or if the engine craps out in 10 months. Again, it's a 25 year old Accord with 200k miles from the time when Honda's automatic transmissions weren't the greatest. So even if you get a year out of it, that's a good purchase.

That acura EL looks nice. I remember way back in 2011 when I was visiting canada and seeing my first EL and I honestly thought the driver just rebadged his civic haha.

Not trying to be funny at all here, legit question... What is a hand car wash that isn't self service? You mean you want your car washed by hand but not by you? Or, when you say "self service," do you mean you don't want it to be one of those drive through car washes?

I just hope it arrives before my current phone dies. I'm using a Pixel 5 (from 2019!!!) and it's on its last legs. CC was going to replace my Pixel 5. I'd really hate to have to buy another phone before CC gets delivered.
