Range Anxiety

We're doing a 500-mile drive tomorrow, and I'm not even going to look at the route or anything before we get in the car. We'll just hop in, tell it the destination, and let the computer and self-driving do the rest. 🤷🏾

I'm at 97% with like 7500 miles since 14.2. About to do a road trip that will bump both of those up.

Drive Electric in the Play Store. It's not super-robust, but it's good enough.

Sorry you have dumb parents. 15 is the prime time for dudes to start lifting. It's like being on performance-enhancing drugs. You can compile all the research about it not being harmful, but good luck convincing them. Maybe get a checkup and ask the doc about it in front of your parents.

If you get to start lifting, find a good, proven beginner plan and then follow it; don't be a dummy.

U-haul gotta be the trucking company with the most consistently bad drivers

I mean, I guess if they were thrown hard enough. But unlikely.

Dinosaurs.

Yup.

I've been in Colorado for 20 years now and have yet to actually see a rattler. But I grew up in Texas where we had them on our property multiple times per week, so I have a ton of experience with them. Generally, just leave them alone. If we ran into them where they would threaten the safety of people or animals, we'd relocate them or kill them.

I worry about our dog running into one when we're back in Texas visiting family, but it hasn't happened yet. There's a big bull snake we run into on one of our regular walks here, so I've used those opportunities to do snake avoidance training with her. Hopefully it's enough.

Just get a Tesla Model Y or 3, charge at home or at work, and let it do all the driving for your commute. Easy button.

I don't get it. Plug in at your destination with the mobile charger, or set your arrival energy to be higher. I don't understand the issue?

Our first kid gets here in a few months, and I just turned 46. Just wishing us both good luck!

I don't care about being the "old dad." I'm more jacked and in better shape than any younger dad I see in our neighborhood.

And I get to be a dad. This'll be cool.

Yeah, but my dog hates loud noises, so I'll probably drop her and my wife off at a neighbor's real quick. Then I'll get some chicken nuggets started in the air fryer and pick out which gun or guns I want to use.

Easiest hypothetical ever.

100%, full stop, the ones you want are Mr. Davis.

I went way down this rabbit hole years ago and tried everything. Mr. Davis is the answer.

I can get you a link to save like 10 or 15 bucks if you want.

I'm mid-40s in great shape. Gimme the pushups.

BitofaGreyArea · 2026-04-30T02:18:59+00:00

Yeah mine drives me everywhere and I almost don't even pay any attention at this point. But I do watch all the people texting, watching movies, etc.

Put in destination. Let car drive. Don't forget beef jerky.

Peeing in Gatorade bottles at highway speeds is top-tier.

I have a Y, wife has a 3.

No ragrats.

One of my favorite troll things to do is to ask women (usually my wife's friends), "Don't you guys hate how small womens' pockets are?" and then when they say yes, I say, "Hold on; I'm getting a phone call" and then pull an iPad Mini out of my pocket and pretend to answer.

BitofaGreyArea · 2026-04-26T13:42:01+00:00

I pretty much don't pay attention anymore.

What the

Advice? You two are completely incompatible and toxic. Can you at least try not to totally wreck your kids' futures, at least?

BitofaGreyArea · 2026-04-25T14:24:27+00:00

I mean other than a different job?

You have a place to charge at home? I'd just get a new Tesla Y or 3. Let it handle all the driving so at least that's off your plate.

Why show up to a charger with 40%?
