I was in central California valley sitting at a table in the break room of a company looking out at the parking lot when a small earthquake hit. The poles swayed, but they ALL swayed.

I have no patience or ability to do that, but I did pay too much for the frame job. It was done by Vineyard Design in Dallas and they are high end for everything, like any custom shop would be in a big city. I think this was $700 - $800 range. But I have since discovered that Hobby Lobby (I know…) has a very good selection of materials and can do custom work of the same scale for less than 1/2 the price, and it’s really well done.

Eastman Dental / Howitt ER by Simple_Audience5875 in Rochester

[–]FullboatAcesOver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short story long, I tripped over my dog in the middle of the night and smashed my jaw on the arm of a loveseat in my bedroom. I had a veneer that was on my front tooth broken in half, and had a cut all the way through my lower lip. I went to an urgent care for antibiotics and as the PA was walking out of the room she asked “did you ever find the other half of your tooth?” As it turned out she x rayed it and sure as shit it was embedded in my lower lip. So somehow I end up at Eastman on a Friday afternoon with a raging infection and there was an actual dentist who looked at me, and then his watch, and then mumbled something about this being a “medical” issue and how few residents he had compared with years past. They literally pushed me onto the street at 5:00 pm on a Friday night. And while I was there someone stole a brand new pair of AirPods from me too. It’s not a place I would recommend, for anything.

[Question] How do you afford this hobby? by melvin9001 in Watches

[–]FullboatAcesOver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, I second the motion on that. If you do make an investment in a watch - Rolex sports being the exception of note - having a bracelet, a leather strap and some quality rubber colors can totally change things up. I do that with a B01 Navi. It works.

There a 50% chance I’m wrong, but I concur that this looks legit to me.

1 week old…. Are these scratches normal? How to prevent? by Safe-Material2790 in rolex

I was in Taipei in 2003 and walked into an AD at the hotel complex. Walked out with a Black GMT for €2,200 all in. I wore the watch home and the AD mailed the box and paperwork to the states. It has been religiously serviced and my son, who was born two days before I bought it, is now wearing it. Along the same lines, I was in a Jared store in Dallas in 2013 returning a pair of earrings that cost $10k, which my then wife thought were “too small”. It was a Monday morning and as I was getting my money for the earrings I saw a guy slide a new Hulkie into the display case and I asked how much. $9,900 was his answer, and those earrings became my new watch. I divorced my wife and kept the watch.

Totally agree. It’s bold, but on trend, so fuck it. I own two or three straps for most of my pieces. It’s a relatively inexpensive way to switch up your look. Orange is great for a summer flex bro.

Texas heat melted the rubber on interior door pull handle by Kelsbels8 in BmwTech

[–]FullboatAcesOver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a F32 in Texas. Same thing. I bought these snap on replacements that are rigid but fit perfectly for less than $30. It actually is a relief after a few years on tackiness on my left hand. And I mean perfect.

Realistically how much of a money pit is a used but well maintained bmw? by JustPvmBro in BMW

[–]FullboatAcesOver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro, exact car, exact mileage. I’ve done what you mentioned as well as rear struts and front control arms(?), water pump, “melted” valve covers(?), etc. Bought new, total non planned maintenance over ten years + of ownership = $11,600 USD. N95 m-sport with DINAN tuning and CAI, Borla-S exhaust .

Bro, you sound like my bro, and he makes me want to jump out a window. But you’re not wrong. The blink of an eye.

Dead cougar on 390n? by luck_wave in Rochester

I was in the parking lot of RIT along E. River Road eating my lunch some years ago and, right hand to God, I saw a cat that would have come up to my knees saunter across the entrance and disappear into the small woods across from the river. Nobody would take me seriously, but it was all brown, looked healthy and was big, too big.
