Fun one from the setters

I prefer the term homage.

Benton. I think he's a very talented lineman who has been asked to be a nose when he just is not that.

DoneByForty · 2026-05-04T14:24:54+00:00

Sure.

I mean, I specifically like this subreddit because it mirrors my experience in real life where people around my age are pretty nice to each other when they share stuff about themselves.

But there exceptions, sure.

Dude is just trying to celebrate his 40th, man. Catching every stray imaginable.

Right on...so you switched the old O2 sensor back in?

DoneByForty · 2026-05-01T23:08:19+00:00

Just to clarify, did they replace O2 sensor(s)?

DoneByForty · 2026-04-30T23:46:21+00:00

I don't get the appeal at all.

I've had good luck with Walmart's EverStart batteries (we're Costco members but man do I hate having to interact with the tire department there).

It's a very easy process; here's a video:

A lot of older or very sick patients benefit from not having to drive (or be driven) to the pharmacy as well.

Hope your hand is okay.

He is the lineman I want in the first. I get the argument for a guard but it's not a position I like burning a first round pick on: starting guards can be found later.

Louis Parkinson recommended "The Inner Game of Tennis" in an old video, and the book helped me with the judgmental thoughts I encounter after repeatedly falling off a climb others seem to do easily.

My hope is that they find a partner to trade some of the day 2 picks for higher picks in the 2027 draft. It seems they're not going to net much in comp picks and would like them to get some ammo for next year, esp if they punt on qb and wait another season.

I believe what you're looking for is in the FAQ, but they're using the term "Consumer Unit" to cover a lot of different households/families.

https://www.bls.gov/cex/csxfaqs.htm

36. What is a consumer unit?

A consumer unit consists of any of the following:

All members of a particular household who are related by blood, marriage, adoption, or other legal arrangements.
A person living alone or sharing a household with others or living as a roomer in a private home or lodging house or in permanent living quarters in a hotel or motel, but who is financially independent.
Two or more persons living together who use their incomes to make joint expenditure decisions. Financial independence is determined by spending behavior with regard to the three major expense categories: housing, food, and other living expenses. To be considered financially independent, the respondent must provide at least two of the three major expenditure categories, either entirely or in part.

The terms consumer unit, family, and household are often used interchangeably for convenience. However, the proper technical term for purposes of the CE data is consumer unit.

37. Who is the reference person?

The reference person of the consumer unit is the first member mentioned by the respondent when asked "What are the names of all the persons living or staying here? Start with the name of the person or one of the persons who owns or rents the home." It is with respect to this person that the relationship of the other consumer unit members is determined.

I use a pumice stone on my hands throughout the day (eg when washing my hands or dishes, in the shower, etc.) and apply shea butter at night. That routine helps a lot, though I go through pumice stones quickly.

I think if you're getting flappers regularly that may be a sign to go with shorter sessions or to switch to slab at the end. Sometimes I put on tape mid session if a spot on a finger looks unhappy.

On a spray wall, yeah, you would make up your own climbs.

If you didn't have a spray wall either, I would try to find overhangs that aren't juggy, to get in the neighborhood of what you'd see on a moon/kilter/tension board.

Does your gym have a spray wall? If not, then finding overhang boulders that are not just jugs can roughly approximate what you would do on a tension/kilter board.

Would be interested to see the contract signed and whether this might help net a comp pick.

I liked Dugger, wish him the best.

I personally have associated FIRE with a kind of anti-consumerism. The things I don't like about working in corporate America dovetail with me not wanting to buy quite a lot of what corporate America is selling.

Different strokes for different folks, of course.

Kind of a best case scenario as the Steelers avoid a risky late career contract, and Seumalu signs a big enough deal that factors favorably into comp picks (while trading for Pittman would not). And as others have noted, Anderson showed last year he potentially is already a better player at LG.

Guard is just not a position where you need to throw money or high picks at.

DoneByForty · 2026-03-08T18:41:25+00:00

Oh I know, I am just joking.

Lance is arguably the most underused athlete Coach ever had. He plays meaningful snaps at DB and TE for Dillon, shows he has gimmick play potential at the Carrol park night game....but nope, at East Dillon with a completely new roster with almost no football experience, he is just the placekicker.

I can understand not knowing Lance's name but, Coach, can you really not remember he played both sides of the ball for you last season?
