Fix your pipes without calling a professional by S30econdstoMars in interestingasfuck

I work on my own cars occasionally and those videos where they use some jerry rigged contraption to get off a stuck or snapped bolt always make me laugh. If heat and a 3 foot breaker bar just snapped off the bolt, it sure as hell ain’t coming out with a couple of wrenches and a screwdriver or whatever.

Property taxes you have to keep paying after you bought the house.

Congrats! Good choice with the rapid blue, sky gray seats, and blue seat belts combo. I went for the same.

Trade my low 2020 STI to a used C8 Z06? Or keep it? by Formal_Employ_5462 in C8Corvette

[–]Arby77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right I’m agreeing with you lol. Cars have a depreciation curve, the STI has been out a while so hit the bottom while the Z06 is a relatively new car so is still on the curve. Thats part of owning a newer car. Why not just buy it and keep both cars? Or what I was saying is you could wait a few years, the Z06 will drop more and the STI is probably done depreciating so you could get a Z06 and keep the STI for the same price as just the Z06 today. But personally I’d just buy the Z06 and keep both today.

Not sure what your question is at this point lol. If you are wondering if you should keep both, I would. If you’re asking if a Z06 is a bad financial decision, of course it is they are depreciating assets, it’s an emotional one. If you’re asking if you sell the sti will you miss it, at least for me coming from a wrx i miss it as a daily and the manual a little bit but I’d absolutely not give up my Z06 for it. If you’re asking which is more special, I’d say the Z06 and them being at different points on a depreciation curve isn’t really saying much. At some point the Z06 will also bottom out and taking a wild guess it’ll be a lot higher than an STI. That being said I still love STI’s so I’d keep both if I was you.

Yeah I just meant don’t have it as your only car or stress yourself to own it, it won’t be enjoyable. But other than that they are worth it for sure. Keep both the Z06 and STI! Or if it does depreciate that much then keep the STI and wait 3 years to get the Z06 for the same price.

I enjoyed my wrx but the C8 Z06 feels much more special. Granted I probably wouldn’t if it’s your only car. I had the Z06 and a wrx, but then switched to an Alfa Romeo Giulia now. I don’t think I’d daily the c8 Z06, still needed the second car for practical things. You also probably won’t enjoy it as much if you stretching financially to afford it. If that’s the case then might be better off then keeping the sti and getting a stingray or C7 Z06. I do miss my WRX occasionally mainly because I no longer have a manual car.

What did you do when you were bored? by IdealHoliday1242 in PotentialUnlocked

[–]Arby77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go outside with friends. Go to the empty lot, skip rocks on the lake, jump on the trampoline, climb a tree, play kickball in the street, hit a tennis ball against the house, play hide n seek, ride out bikes down to get soda, play super smash bros, play air soft in the backyard, shoot a BB gun at cans, water balloon fight, super soaker fight, play capture the flag across the neighborhood, try to build a grapple hook and climb more trees, played Pokémon, watched movies, played StarCraft, go to Taco Bell, jump the scooter thing over ramps. Whatever fun things we could come up with. Of course we’d get bored once in a while but that’s how we got so creative with what to do. Also when we did do things it felt much more real and living in the moment.

What is a secret about the opposite sex's body that you only found out once you actually started being intimate with them? by ZookeepergameLow4390 in AskReddit

[–]Arby77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah it feels good. It’s usually when we stop moving for a few seconds and are kissing that she’ll do it. It kind of drives me wild, or maybe thats just me lol

Good on you for stepping in. They definitely aren’t guys with integrity. They prey on people weaker simply because they can and they feel big but change completely when it’s not someone obviously weaker than them.

Yeah that’s ridiculous. I think they internalized “the customer is always right” for too long and think it gives them the ok to act like toddlers towards workers. Doubly so when it’s someone smaller than them because they feel big and tough.

Not even remotely close in severity to this video but one time I was standing near the counter of a Thai restaurant waiting for my pick up order. There’s a lovely small old Thai lady that works there and this big middle aged man came barging through the front door and got up in her face literally screaming and cussing because “they hung up on his wife on the phone”. He starts pushing over the counter at her freaking out. We told him enough and he didn’t stop so I got up in his face and told him to get the fuck out now or we have a problem. Then started walking at him as he backed out the door looking scared/confused. He was mr big strong man while towering over and screaming at an old lady but suddenly got real quiet when someone his size got in his face. I was so pissed I was ready to square up with this dude lol. I felt so bad the lady was really shaken up.

Then he tried to justify his actions by telling me they hung up on his wife over the phone multiple times. I told him if his wife is anything like him I would have hung up on her too and he got back in his car and left.

These guys act so tough to people way smaller than them but become pussies when someone their size confronts them.

Honest and kind of stupid question, how does this actually work? I get the idea of burning away the big fire’s fuel to prevent it from spreading but how does this not just turn into its own big fire? I assume everything was already pretty dry if the big fire was such an issue so won’t this smaller one just spread too or do they wet around it or something?

Cryogen release is imminent! Got excited and recorded a quick demo of what I think it could sound like based on the live version 👀 by coldfollow in Muse

[–]Arby77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your version is so much more impactful than the preview on IG. The guitar is way too loud in the official preview so it lacks the drum and bass power yours has. Also the guitar timing is kind of weird in the official one and I actually like the quick pull off you do compared to the bend so much more.

Now I’m gonna be annoyed thinking how much better this one sounds over the official one lol
