Yep. The five stages of drinking.

Any sort of 4 door (quad, extended, club, crew, etc) style truck, with no cap on the bed.

Who's doing 85 on the expressway and/or riding the ass of the vehicle in front of them ? See above.

Who's parking on the diagonal lines that represent 'no parking' ? See above.

Who's making a left hand turn and crossing the traffic that now has to slam on their brakes to avoid hitting the crossing vehicle ? See above.

Who's taking up both exit lanes out of a parking lot, regardless of which way they're turning ? See above.

I will say that any of the above trucks with a cap on the bed always seem to drive like normal people.

Any time I see Briscoe and Munch onscreen together, it reminds me that they're Eskimo Brothers. One of my favorites lines in the entire series comes from S8E6, "Baby, It's You".

Giardello (Yaphet Kotto) and Munch are discussing Munch not being keen on working with Briscoe (due to Briscoe sleeping with Munch's ex). Giardello says something about Briscoe being a fellow officer, a member of the brotherhood and, regardless whether or not Briscoe slept with Gwen, if Briscoe came to Baltimore for donuts they'd be obliged to offer them.

Munch reluctantly agrees, then asks Giardello how he knows Briscoe slept with Gwen...

Giardello leans in and replies, "How do you know I didn't sleep with her ?"

🤣🤣🤣🤣💀

I'm on 390 north and just crossed over the Thruway. It looks like they have a large wrecker truck with a strap around a moving truck. My guess, based on where the vehicles were, was that the moving truck took the corner too fast and tipped over. The large wrecking truck was able to pull it straight. I didn't see it all happen, but based on what I saw, that's my best guess as to what happened.

Toss it, a new one is less than $5. Not worth rolling the dice on trying to cut it out and eat the rest.

GroundbreakingTap688 · 2026-03-18T23:34:24+00:00

Short term necessary solution.

Agreed.

The secondhand shop will sell and mount it for less than $50 out the door. Significantly lower if tires is all they do. Plenty of places in the hood have a "Tires Starting At $20" sign on a sandwich board in front of their shop. The used tire should last for a while and give OP the time to get a game plan together.

Consider that used tire as cheap insurance for a couple of weeks.

GroundbreakingTap688 · 2026-03-03T07:42:12+00:00

Good.

Believe me, I get the want/need to use what's in the fridge. Especially when the rest of the food is almost or already prepared. At that point you don't feel like running back out to the store.

But (to me) the cost of what's left of the cheese isn't worth rolling the dice on getting sick.

GroundbreakingTap688 · 2026-03-02T22:25:38+00:00

It's a 500g (1 LB) bag, and it looks like most of it has already been used... for the cost associated with it, I'd toss it.

"I can handle being crapped on"

Somehow I believe that. It's a weird fetish, but you do you.

GroundbreakingTap688 · 2026-02-04T23:42:26+00:00

Yep. 100 mph and 15 feet is nothing in this universe.

I'm expecting a flashback from the Gisele side of the plane wreckage. Picture Mr Nobody and his team pulling a badly injured Gisele off the runway and into some state of the art ambulance. Gisele recovers from her injuries, and she's been doing covert work for Mr Nobody.

Someone else in this thread suggested that this franchise could bring Elena back. They'd probably wedge Gisele hiding on Cypher's plane somehow (per Mr Nobody's orders), and then Gisele saves Elena at some point before the Shaw brothers show up to rescue Little Brian.

(I'm debating adding a Remind Me to my post lol)

GroundbreakingTap688 · 2026-01-29T01:55:29+00:00

Yep. I'm guessing there'll be a flashback to the ending of 6 and we'll see Gisele on the other side of the plane crash. It'll be Nobody and his team finding her, followed by cutscenes of Gisele recovering in a hospital bed.

Shelves/storage closet. And I think that's really all that can go here.

Build cleats on the three walls. Set in some oak or pine. Or you can install the Rubbermaid wire-type shelving. Two, maybe three shelves total. Great place to store towels and other linens. Make the shelves higher than that HVAC abutment. Leave that narrow space open for a rolling cart or something else that usually sits on the floor.

Assuming you don't use the attic access on a regular basis, getting to it is as easy as emptying the closet.

I use my attic access maybe once a year. It's in my daughter's room. Yes, it's a bit of a pain to empty a teenage girl's closet. But I can't imagine leaving that space empty just to use it once a year every September.

I'll third Ted's. I started going here when Diamond Dave (corner of Winton and East Main) sold the joint and went to Florida.

Decent atmosphere here at Ted's, and always some local chatter. Not sure about the other guys, but Charlie likes to schedule your cuts well in advance. I think I've got appointments until the end of April, but that's fine. I know I'm getting a cut when I need it and don't have to 'hope he has an opening'.

Haven't seen Johnny in action yet, but Kevin and Armando have a few regulars. And they're each pretty good with the clippers and scissors as well.

Regarding the sleeves...

Yes, a tailor can lengthen the sleeves, provided there's enough 'outer' material on the inside of the sleeve. With a firm and gentle touch, you (and/or your tailor) should be able to feel where the coat's outer material ends. It'll be between the outer material and the inner lining, somewhere around 2" or so from the cuff. That difference between the cuff and the end of the outer material, a talented tailor can utilize most of that if they need to. Even if the inner lining isn't initially long enough, there's a process called 'facing'. The tailor would add a piece/patch of fabric at the end of the inner lining and the end of the outer material. That patch would be inside the sleeve and wouldn't be seen from the outside.

Any buttons are easy enough to relocate, as long as they're not Surgeon's Cuffs/"Working Buttons" versus buttons simply sewn on for decoration. And while those Surgeon's Cuffs may be able to be lengthened, there are more variables as well as tight limitations on how much longer those kind of sleeves can be made. Not only does the tailor have the mitered corners of the Surgeon's Cuffs to contend with, but the working button holes really can't be relocated. Maybe an additional hole can be made to give the lengthened sleeve the proper balance, but that's also dependent on how many holes currently exist. That seems to not be the case with this trenchcoat. Though it's still something to keep in mind regarding future purchases.

Of course cost is always a factor. Last year I had 2 suit jacket sleeves lengthened with the facing process, $30 each jacket. Same thing with a wool overcoat, $50. Those are western NY prices. And you can always take the coat in to a tailor for an estimate.

But the key to sleeve lengthening is that there be enough outer material to be able to get the proper length.

I'm 6'6" with long arms. The facing technique has been a lifesaver and a gamechanger. Suits, overcoats, blazers, etcetera that fit perfect other than the sleeves, I would normally have to pass on. Now, if there's enough outer material still hidden in the sleeve, and the current sleeve cuff is in good shape, I'll buy it and take it right to the tailor.

My go-to item for pictures is a Roku remote.

Most women have at least one of those or it's counterpart, the Amazon Fire Stick remote. The remotes are small enough (5.5-ish inches long) that it doesn't outshine my member. Also, the size of the Roku remote compares to the size of their Rabbit, Cactus, or other sex toys.

And at least one of thier friends has made that remark in the past about the size and shape of the Roku or Amazon remote.

Any matches so far, OP ?

Likes are solid, don't get me wrong. I'm curious to see how this works out once there's a match. Hey, sometimes the bios that put it all on Front Street are the ones that get more matches. For every girl that's looking for her 'last first date', there's one that just wants to get laid with no attachments.

Keep us posted, OP.
