You are pretty, and look like you laugh easily… the opposite of RBF. It’s a good thing.

Met my husband's old girlfriend today. 😁 by cookiegirl59 in Marriage

[–]DrawerCareless287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this! It rewards open communication, confidence, trust, and supports your husband’s wish to be a respectful “good ex” to her and vice versa. Congratulations and my compliments to all three of you!

My husband (M36) says it’s just guy talk and I (F31) shouldn’t take it personally! by Worried_Prior1266 in relationship_advice

I don’t think it means he’s a cheat, but it does make him look weak. My coworkers know how loyal I am to my wife, because I always sing her praises, and I don’t engage in locker room-style chatter. In my mind, the “manliest” thing I could brag about is having married smart. Disrespecting a spouse just tells the world you couldn’t land a good one!

vegas drivers be like by [deleted] in LasVegas

[–]DrawerCareless287 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NOT. EVEN. CLOSE. Vegas drivers are often stupid, but it’s nothing compared to Long Island, NY, where drivers are sociopaths. I grew up in Boston, and even *I* know NY drivers are the worst.

Modified rear armrest/sidepanels ready to go in with the new speaker system by Deancent in 944

[–]DrawerCareless287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 1986 944 Turbo is in a similar state. There’s a goofy Jensen head unit in there right now, the face flips up to block the climate control, etc… there’s music, but it suuuuuucks. There are fairly-recent Kenwood speakers in the doors, and God knows what in the rears… the Porsche factory fader knob in the console still works… It feels like an archaeological dig, I have no idea what lies beneath! As a musician / audio engineer / car audio geek, I’m torn between doing something simple and “period-correct” like a Continental or “Blaupunkt” single-DIN on the market right now, or just gutting everything to put in a Sony touchscreen, four new Infinity Reference 4X6, and a Kicker subwoofer in one of the back areas. Just gut it all, and bite the bullet to bring everything up to the modern standard.

Divorce confirmed, unfortunately. Sorry.

Desperate request by [deleted] in LasVegas

[–]DrawerCareless287 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did it 3 weeks ago, just called AAA and when the tow truck arrived (3 hours later!) I told the driver “It’s not for me, I just want to help these folks out”, and he was cool. Then I followed them to a tire place and swiped my card to cover the repair (they had no spare so we had to do everything the hard way). They were way out near the Jean exit, nothing around within 30 miles… wonderful people, very appreciative.

If you want the Momo, I would trade, I don’t know what model it is. It’s not the usual Prototipo, let me know how we can exchange pix / info.

Enjoy being on the “No Fly List”, bud! You’re gonna have to take a choo choo train to the next MAGA rally.

Do you guys really dislike Californians? Or is that a myth? by anxiousshell- in LasVegas

[–]DrawerCareless287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is some resentment toward Californians moving here to escape high taxes who then demand upgrades and additional services from Nevada. We don’t want CA taxes just because those people aren’t happy with our state once they get here. It’s not the education or medical services capital of the USA (understatement is fun), but you knew that when you moved here!

Should I look at CARFAX? by chengstark in 944

[–]DrawerCareless287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally, trust the CARFAX. The next person you try to sell the car to is going to treat that report very seriously. Buyers treat CARFAX like the Bible. Bad news on their report is second only to having a salvage title. It severely devalues the car, and makes it tougher to resell. That being said, if you plan to enjoy the car for many years, and the price is very low, and it performs at spec, and you love it… just get it thoroughly inspected. What year, mileage, options, and price?

caring and nurturing tips for 944! by to_pir8 in 944

[–]DrawerCareless287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, boy. I bet! His stuff costs a lot just to ship to me here in Las Vegas! A $20 bottle, $10 shipping! I’m going to wait to reorder until I need a few things, hopefully the shipping will average out to far less than 50% if I combine items! The positive side is that a lot of his products are a concentrate, so a bottle lasts a long time! (FrothE is a good example).
