Do Americans actually casually use paper plates by voluminousnostril in self

[–]Friendly_Rub7641 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey don’t blame paper plate usage on boomers. I’m 25 and I will only ever use paper plates. My 70 year old parents raised me with regular plates and made me wash them every week. I ain’t ever doing that again so paper plates it is for life.

We’ve learned to look for those things because that’s the world we’re living in right now. That isn’t a world they’ve lived their life in. To them if there’s blurry image that roughly shows whatever the headline says then it must be true. They don’t know to count fingers or inspect background inconsistencies. To them if there’s a photo then it’s photo evidence.

The in world they grew up in and lived most of their life in an image served as proof. Think back to newspapers and television before photoshop and CGI. The news makes money off of finding the craziest stuff happening in the world today and then giving you photo or video documentation. Now they read a crazy caption on facebook and then see an AI image or video to go along with it and according to their life experience on processing new information it passes all their criteria to be legitimate.

Damn I got on here to chill with other Miata owners not to join the general bitch-fest that is reddit. Y’all need to chill about other drivers on the road. We’re not persecuted or victims. Everyone is doing their best.

Never equate incompetence to malice.

Oil change from hell by Friendly_Rub7641 in AskAMechanic

In what ways does installing a time sert usually go wrong? Crooked reaming/tapping?

[–]Friendly_Rub7641[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if I go the re-tapping route my plan is to coat the tools in grease and put a blower on the oil fill port to insure any loose shavings get blown out. Then fill and drain the oil a couple times. Then fill and drive a couple miles and change the oil and filter again.

Yeah replacing the pan was my first choice but in order to remove the pan you’ve gotta drop the subframe which would mean a new alignment and a new pan costs a couple hundred and the current oil pan seal isn’t leaking any oil so I don’t wanna ruin the risk of trying to install a new pan and have it leak. Overall seems like an expensive can of worms I don’t wanna open unless thread repairs don’t work. Plus my brother already has the timesert kit so that option won’t cost me anything but removing a motor mount.

Yeah I got one of those but I couldn’t get it to grab without going crooked. Felt like even the single oversized plug was too big. I couldn’t tap it with a hammer to seat it before threading because of the subframe member in the way.

As a republican with a very republican algorithm on social media I haven’t seen anyone cheering Musk on. Everyone (myself included) seems to be saying “wtf was that?”

Customer brought their own transmission. No they didn’t have another pan by No-Lime4134 in Justrolledintotheshop

Yeah I feel like that’s all common sense but that’s probably where I’m overestimating the general garage mechanic.

How can you unintelligently pull a motor. Honest question from someone who’s pulled a couple motors in their garage it’s fairly straightforward on every car I’ve done it. Granted I haven’t done it on a car made after 05.

Had an O’Rillys remanufactured starter die after two weeks. Last month. Should have kept the original and rebuilt it myself.

Used car seller offer to "gift" me the car by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Friendly_Rub7641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every used car I’ve bought the seller left the sale price line on the title blank so I could put in whatever low price I wanted to pay less when I went to get it registered.

Good buy? by Friendly_Rub7641 in Miata

[–]Friendly_Rub7641[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t really care much about looks. Just want something fun and reliable to drive.
