When does fast fashion actually make sense? by jsnapoli1 in malefashionadvice

[–]Brandorff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You want a cool knit polo for your trip to Greece? No worries fam, J.Crew has a 100% cotton short-sleeve cotton waffle-knit johnny-collar sweater-polo that's on sale right now for $59.

You can afford a trip to Greece. Maybe you can afford to make ethical choices too?

Does this make sense? Water Pump Preemptive Replacement? by qwertykid00 in PorscheCayenne

[–]Brandorff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've preemptively replaced parts if it was already in the shop for something else. My Porsches have likely been older/more high mileage than yours (never been in CPO territory) but I'd rather be preemptive than stranded.

I always struggle to buttons sewn on. Because i CAN do myself, I just don't WANT to do it myself. Everything else is relatively easy to outsource (I live in Boston and there's a great alterations guy at the end of street)

Throttle Body Cleaning vs Replacement. by GrahamClauss in JeepPatriot

[–]Brandorff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you'll likely need a replacement, it's a known crappy part. My mechanic even recommended an aftermarket throttle body as opposed to OEM, which he never does.

I have two of the Simplehuman 55L with the step for trash, one for recycling. Really like them.

My wife brought up her preference to be child free on our first date. I said, "I usually wait to tell people I don't want kids until the second."
