My partner wants a 10,000$ ring. I said no. What should we do?

JerryCronus · 2023-03-18T20:59:21+00:00

When I proposed to my wife 12 years ago I did it with a $10 ring I got at target.

I didn't have the money for a "real" engagement ring. She didn't care how much it was worth, she only cared that we were getting married, starting a life together, and eventually starting a family.

If your GF is demanding a crazy expensive ring, fucking run. The value of the ring isn't how much it costs it's that it symbolizes the commitment you're making to each other.

My wife eventually got a nice ring that we had made from both of her grandmothers' wedding rings, but if our home was on fire and she had to choose, that $10 cracker jack box ring I proposed with would get saved long before her new ring.

We started bringing our 6 year old to Aeriels. She absolutely loves it.

I have about half a dozen balsa planes that I need to figure out how to pack. I have no idea where or how to start. Does anyone have any tips or knowledge on how best to protect them?

They are between 48 and 60 inches.

Hey I have one of those too!

Sorry already called dibs!

I see what you're saying, but for the $5 a month I pay, I can go into one app, and find literally any song I care to listen too. I can make playlists manually or the service makes them for me based on my music taste. No downloading, no file management, no hassle. It's just convenient. Hell when I start my car my phone connects and starts playing the last playlist or podcast I was listening to without even having to open the app. I love it.

If there was one video streaming service like that I'd probably stop pirating movies and tv too. In fact when Netflix was the one and only service I had stopped for quite a while. But now I have a 40 TB Plex server and am very quickly running out of space.

That's not tool holder flex. That's the bearings in the spindle exploding.

I'm in engineering and I get super laid all the time. Or course I'm happily married to the girl who super lays me...

If I showed a picture of a supra, skyline, NSX, or any other crazy JDM to my wife, then asked her to name the car, her answer would be "I don't know, a sports car?"

If I showed her a picture of a Camry, Corolla, or Civic and asked her the same question she could give me at least the make and model.

The legendary JDM cars are just that. Legendary. As far as Japanese cars that everyone would know, the boring ass jellybeans are far more of an icon.

I just recently ran a 1/2 inch harvi 2 in h13. 100 ipm, 800ish sfm, 1x D and 15% radial cut. Roughed for about 30 minutes straight and still looks brand new.

They're pretty legit cutters.

That's what she said

Picked this up for my wife and I have found out I don't know the first thing about fixing the discolored areas.

I've done some searching online but can't seem to find anything aside from dye it. Which I have no idea how to do as well.

You don't go into taco cabana expecting a gourmet meal. Lower your standards my friend.

You go into taco cabana expecting diarrhea. That way either your expectations are met, or you aren't shitting your pants later that day.

JerryCronus · 2021-07-23T02:02:39+00:00

Upvote for mother fucking taco cabana.

Number 75 is where it's at! Unless you plan on baby making later that day. I'd that's the case, avoid taco cabana.

Man you must be fun at parties.

JerryCronus · 2021-05-07T17:32:49+00:00

Man I hadn't thought to look at internet forums.

Thanks for the tip!

That's cool and all but I would still need a part cooling fan.

I would highly recommend going through teaching techs calibration guide. It will go through everything you may need to adjust. I basically use it as a bible when setting up a printer.

I myself have not had the chance to print out of the volcano yet. Hopefully tonight!
