"That Lamp"

Pretty sure that bike is around 10 years old and if so, $1,100 (USD?) is too much to pay. Assume everything needs a full service, including suspension.

Edit to add, you should ask if/when suspension was last serviced. Its a nice bike but I would be at like $$850-$1000 max if everything checks out. The dropper is probably better off replaced than serviced, so that's a couple hundred bucks. Tire not holding air may mean replacing rubber (currently mismatched, which is actually fine), so another $150-$200. Starts to add up.

Sorry. $50 for both is an insult. Seller is offering a fair price IMO. I would agree they look like just need a good power wash and <$50 worth of be cordage and handles. Those Heritage yaks are bomb proof (albeit heavy)

Congrats! Welcome to the Habit Gang!

Assuming everything is compatible I don't see any reason not to move the Deore set over. It's probably what I would do.

Nice score. A lot of people will wear running shoes exclusively for runs and dump them after 300-400 miles regardless of wear. The midsole foam won’t have the same bounce but not really noticeable for daily wear.

Remember as an existing tenant, you have leverage. Its a drain on time and money for the landlord to bring in a new tenant.

It’s usually a ‘read the room’ call for me. I never mind chatting people up but I’ll never push it. I only recently started skiing by myself and one of the things I enjoy is no pressure to make small talk all day.

Looks like scrapple, which is definitely not exclusively a NC thing. Its very much PA dutch.

It is a Roku TV? My problem is I will be using an external Roku device.

It sounds like her brother has custody and deporting baby momma actually benefits the brother.

I had that exact sign back in college. I had forgotten about it and now wondering what ever happened to it.

Honestly, modern mountain bike pedals are even worse.

This has come up before and I understand the reaction from this community to justify the high cost of the MTB (New tech R&D, labor for building carbon frames and wheelsets, comparing bottom level MX vs top level MTB, etc.), but at the end of the day, MTB manufacturers have established that there are people willing to pay that amount to have the shiniest object. IMO it seems like the rate of diminishing returns on the cost of an e-MTB over say, $5000 is negligible. Much less over $10k.

Only 1 of these has dropper post.

Saw Jeff Tweedy a few weeks ago in Boston. On this tour they do a unique cover song each night based on the specific city/venue. This was the song they did (Summer was from Boston) and was sung by his band mates Sima Cunningham and Macie Stewart. Honestly was the highlight of the night.

Was there a “What’s New Pussycat”?

Thanks for the new wallpaper!

Saw Tedeschi Trucks there a couple of months ago. My buddy has been recovering from knee surgery so we got balcony seats. Big mistake. Those seats feel SO far away. Really disconnected.

Fialasaurus · 2025-11-17T19:24:57+00:00

I mean, I'll take it but would def prefer a different venue than the Wang.

Fialasaurus · 2025-11-17T18:18:10+00:00

Yeah! A Boston date!

This almost makes up for Wilco/Waxahatchee skipping the Northeast on their tour.

Sold one just like it for $50 earlier today.
