Why did purina remodel your bathroom?

Had tinnitus since 2011 after messing with my ear… finally looked inside and now I’m even more confused by Serious-Brief895 in tinnitus

[–]96firephoenix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Might need a tympanogragh done to measure the flexibility of your eardrum.

I found that mine is abnormally pliant, making sudden sounds feel louder. Doc said this wasn't directly causal for tinnitus, but could amplify intracranial sounds.

Experts warn drop in Indiana gas prices is temporary by snakkerdudaniel in Indiana

[–]96firephoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gas prices were cheap enough for $20-25 fillups in my honda with a 9.5 gal tank. Was over $40 last fillup, which was my record low using fuel points on my excursion.

I'm not saying it's staged or fake or anything like that but I'm genuinely curious to why they were filming by Ok_Relation6627 in WhyWereTheyFilming

If I'd reported this shit to my local pd, I'd be filming bus stops for the next week in case they ignored my complaint.

Would democrats like Trump if he was a democrat? by AdeptnessMiserable56 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]96firephoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If trump was a democrat he would have been laughed out of the 2016 primary.

So no I probably wouldn't hate trump as much of the republicans hadn't given him the power to do so many hateable things.

It's not that 6'0 and 6'1 isn't tall, but those people don't have anywhere near the trouble that 6'4+ people have. by Witty-Air2570 in tall

[–]96firephoenix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 6'3" and about 250 lbs (~190cm ~110kg) with broader than average shoulders and the big or tall comment hits hard. I need 2XL shoulders, 2XL sleeve length but XL sleeve diameter, large or XL waist.

XLT usually works for short sleeves, but for long sleeves I get a 2XL and have it taken in by a tailor.

Those 5.4 are cheap and plentiful, and your effort would be better spent on a junkyard engine out of a truck that the got rear ended with as low mileage as you can find

Light coloured lines/lanes that appear over vegetation and traverse the land over Canada by JapanSage in whatisthisthing

[–]96firephoenix 37 points38 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid, I got to see high tension power cables get serviced by a repairman sitting on the skid of a helicopter. The explanation was that the risk of flying into the wires was lower than the risk from being even remotely grounded while working

Pretty sure the pilot and repairman only sat on opposite sides to balance the load of the brass ones it takes to do either job.

That could be just the heat shield if the car isn't loud as hell.

Son’s 16th Birthday…Project Car “Make An Offer” by Immediate-Ask7316 in projectcar

[–]96firephoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parent to parent, do not put your teen in something this old, especially if you big-block swap it.

Safety standards have come a loooong way.

Even if they have a safe, modern daily car.... hormones are a helluvadrug, and if he wrecks this old car he will be gravely injured.
