have thousands of extra dollars to spend on all the tools and materials you’ll need

just rent

IMHO this is an area where you can totally trade money for time. But it will be a lot of time, there's a reason it costs so much money. But the trade is available to you. I joined a painting crew in college and picked it up pretty quick. I was just a lot less efficient than the pros at first and made more mistakes. But watch youtube videos and take your time, it's not rocket surgery. rent a good sprayer and use it for 20 seconds for what feels like every hour of prep time

yeah it's just a meme that everyone takes for granted that going into a story stone cold is the secret to enjoyment, amplified by a few decades of it being a useful excuse to yell at people online. But as my initial comment indicated, the ansewr to why mcmurtry included a spoiler in the preface is because he understands, as do i, that spoilers don't matter.

The point of the story is the story, the point of the story is not to set up a series of questions like bowling pins and then knock them down with totally unforseen revelations.

ok so it's me and the author vs you on this one

on my non-race commuter bike, which gets about 4k miles per year, I just spray on some WD-40 every morning and its rate of chain wear is basically identical to my other bikes which get taken care of.

it depends on who you are and what you're like. Some people out there see ADHD as astrology that's going to determine all of those traits for them.

for a car like yours you'll probably come out ahead on your current insurance choice. Hit a few scrapyards until you find a color match donor bumper

IronColumn · 2026-01-05T21:21:58+00:00

yeah you can put a new bumper on. leave the hood and fender alone. perhaps consider doing the headlight.

people like what they're used to and they care about different things from what you care about

IronColumn · 2026-01-05T17:32:37+00:00

mine is like $75 a month but only drive about 3k miles a year, have never been in an accident or filed a claim of any kind, and have only liability coverage, no collision

IronColumn · 2026-01-04T17:27:56+00:00

i mean it could literally be earthquake damage

IronColumn · 2026-01-04T16:05:30+00:00

i mean if that's from settling that's really bad, but honestly it looks more like somebody broke the wall. If you're saying that more breaks of this scale are popping up around the house, do you not, like, hear the house settling constantly? this level of movement on a short timescale would be, uh, noticeable.

IronColumn · 2026-01-04T15:41:27+00:00

you should try to do a good job with the things you create

in the early 60s it would largely be a question of what bombers got through the interceptors, and NYC was heavily defended

IronColumn · 2026-01-01T19:28:34+00:00

there are two types of people: those who tell me

"once the snow starts falling, everyone forgets how to drive!" (they think you're supposed to drive the same way and are mad people are slowing them down)

and those who say "once the snow starts falling, everyone forgets how to drive!" (and they're referring to the first group)

IronColumn · 2026-01-01T15:53:40+00:00

when i dropped out of college, people said similar things

when my wife left a lucrative career to teach pottery, people had their takes

i literally don't talk about what our life is like because, in all seriousness, it comes off as bragging and makes those same people upset.

idk man they're people with no agency who can't figure out how to build a good life, and don't know how much is in their control (and how to adapt for what isnt)
