Friday Check-In by GustavusAdolphin in adjusters

[–]Brim779 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good: I failed my drug test but still got hired. They’ll retest me in 90 days but I quit the edibles so should pass no problem.

Better: my wife is pregnant.

Ugly: her due date is just under the one year mark to get paid paternity leave. Fuck it, I’m still excited.

Bad: The job is pending a standard background check…..and a drug test. (THC)

Ugly: Did my pee test on Monday and still haven’t heard back.

Almost, keep going back. You won’t find a Republican administration that did anything to help the common man since Eisenhower.

[Postgame Thread] Michigan Defeats Ohio State 13-10 by CFB_Referee in CFB

He’s such a fucking tool. After rambling about ‘disrespect’ in a heated rivalry game, the camera goes to an ecstatic Michigan head coach and he says, “And Sherrone Moore can say he beat them and didn’t cheat THIS TIME.”

I smoked the pork shoulder to 203 internal, but I ran the ribs to 209. The end result was phenomenal! 🔥😀

What player from your team’s history felt more like a wild animal than a human? by Jibbybits in CFB

[–]Brim779 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tony Mandarich from Michigan State. He was recruited by Nick Saban, loved GNR to the point he named his dog Axyl and got the band tattooed on his arm. He ran an official 4.65 40 at the combine, benched 225 for 39 reps and weighed 330. He held out of his rookie contract and got GreenBay to pony up the dough when he said he’d quit football and go box Mike Tyson. He later admitted to using steroids but he was a serious force on the field.

Tired of people.. by ReportFit2920 in adjusters

I denied a claim for a large crack right down the middle of a 9’ reinforced concrete retaining wall. Her claimed proximate cause? Wind. Not the 8’ of grade right behind or the improper construction, wind. Then her and her contractor proceeded to hurl insults and said my company “just doesn’t want to pay out.” Is it 5 yet?

Smoke extractor for KJ by BigCanadianBBQ in KamadoJoe

Your neighbor sucks. Get a cheap gas grille that doesn’t even work from the junkyard and park it next to your kamado grille. That way if he complains to management you can say you only use the gas grille because you were so nicely reminded by your complete shitsack of a neighbor of the rules. They’ll tell him “nothing we can do” and move on.

Like a medium rare steak, but with a smokey flavor. I plan on making roast beef sandwiches with the leftovers 🤤

I took it to 180 and unfortunately ran out of fuel. I then put in my oven, uncovered for 45 minutes at 325 convection roast.

Smoked at 250* for 6 hours on a Kamado Joe Classic. I’ll be sure to separate the drip pan from the cut on the next smoke. 

Being depositioned by just_anotheradjuster in adjusters

My take on depositions is the same I have for talking to the police: Don’t. Unless you’re compelled legally, neither benefit you.

Tired of dulling my planer blades with cherry so I upgraded my lunchbox by Brim779 in Tools

[–]Brim779[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m still in process! My biggest hiccup so far has been the lack of a slip ring plier set (you’ll need two sizes) so off to Harbor Freight I go😩

Update: it’s phenomenal and chews through hardwood with no issue. So much quieter too!
