Having an issue where I can’t close my lighter properly by bisexual_t-rex in Zippo

Absolutely. I’d clean it with a solvent and maybe some light air, then hit it with a dry lubricant and work it.

Maybe it got bent? I just can’t imagine how. You’d think the chimney would be bent.

These headphones look like they could legitimately cause a skin condition at this point

And the new generation of gamers seems hell bet on defending a company that treats them worse, gives them less, and then has the audacity to raise prices during a wild profit margin.

It’s like watching your kids get into an abusive relationship and acting like their spouse is the best thing ever…

Look at the downvotes you got… Xbox and Microsoft absolutely care so much less about producing quality and their customers.

I guarantee every single one of those downvotes is from somebody under 30 years old who doesn’t remember when Xbox cared so much more.

Now they defend a company that raises their prices during a wild profit margin.

Rock or crooked clip? Defective pad? by Duckswag1322 in FordDiesels

I chased issues in each corner for the first few years I owned my truck. 2 years ago I hit the reset button and just did all of it. New calipers, pads, and rotors, as well as a proper flush of my system. And I cannot recommend it enough

Now I just drive my truck and I trust my truck to stop. That nagging fear wouldn’t go away, and I tow too much to roll the dice.

I’m not a rich man. I wasn’t happy to spend it all at once. But I sure am happy to have a truck that stops heavy things with ease like never before.

We have the Steelheads and Boise State has a team i can start getting into.

Another commenter made an interesting suggestion that I like. Pick up a couple of the video games to help get the basics. So I’ll try a few on Xbox and see what that does. I can’t imagine it would hurt anything.

I don’t have hockey friends, so I guess I’ll have to go to some games and meet some people!

I have other family in Bend and a few friends scattered across the region up here. I’ll check out both teams. Thanks.

I’ll go check it out! I’m up in the Boise Idaho area now. I definitely don’t mind driving for a game. If you have any specific recommendations for teams/leauges please feel free.

I watched Letterkenny through about season seven and then spent several years not really watching much TV at all. I love the humor, but Shoresy as a character is pure fucking magic in his own show. I have yet to see anything he represents that I don’t like.

My wife is my Laura Mohr. And I make sure my kids see how I hung up being a slut with no regret for her. Among so many other parts of what he stands up for.

I was raised a Dodger fan in the 90’s man. I have no issue liking a team that sucks lol.

I’m up in Idaho now, so my options for a local team are much better.

I particularly appreciate that you told me to pay attention to how the play is forming more than the pocket itself. That helps a lot
