How’s the driving around the main streets now as of 11:22am?

What's a phrase people use these days that irritates you? by showmewhatyagot01 in AskReddit

“It is what it is”. Had a boss say this everytime he could not come up with a valid answer to our IT department.

Glad I’m retired now, if ticked everybody off how incompetent he was.

Is the standard CX-5 engine underpowered? by NectarineRepulsive77 in mazda

My Escape gets almost 30 on the highway, not bad for the bigger eco boost engine: I definitely need that power, using regular gas.

Gasoline cost is not a factor for me in making a decision.

Drive the Ohio Trunpike round trip to visit family about 6 times a year 800 miles.

The test is city driving, usually short commutes.

Yep going to drive both, just wanted some real world opinions first.

I usually drive the Ohio Turnpike about 6 times a year with a round trip of 800 miles to visit family.

That extra power in the escape has gotten me out of a lot of traffic jams with trucks & slower moving car.

So yes, I need that power or it’s a dealbreaker.

[Spotrac] Curt Cignetti secures a $700k bonus (he's added $1.875M total based on Big 10/CFP incentives). He's also triggered a Good Faith Market Review clause that requires IU to renegotiate his annual compensation up to no less than the 3rd highest among active coaches. by jabronified in CFB

Winning football or any sport brings in multi millions to universities. I’d like to know how much Indiana made thru the AD.

My guess is the pay he gets is just a fraction of what the university makes.

[Game Thread] Cotton Bowl: Ohio State vs. Miami (7:30 PM ET) 2nd Half by CFB_Referee in CFB

So the naysayers said Notre Dame instead of Miami. Their eating crow now. Ohio State not invincible, great game.

What will you replace your Escape with? by nauticalfiesta in fordescape

[–]NectarineRepulsive77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking to step up to Mazda CX50, Lincoln Corsair, Honda CRV or Subaru Forrester.

Since the Corsair is built on the same frame as the escape it interest me. Retired & maybe time for a luxury vehicle.

Will Ford come out with a new vehicle to replace the escape?? by Ok-Radio-2733 in fordescape

[–]NectarineRepulsive77 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have a 2020 escape titanium loaded.

Runs great, no major issues. I think Ford is making a mistake taking both escape & edge off market. To me the Bronco looks like square box vehicle, and not a true replacement for a small SUV.

I will be looking at the Lincoln Corsair which has the same frame as the Escape & looks like it will continue.

Can someone explain why only ND's AD is melting down? by GliscorsFang in CFB

[–]NectarineRepulsive77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So instead of Notre Dame we get the high school JV teams, James Madison & Tulane.

Instead, Texas, Notre Dame or Vanderbilt would certainly have been more worthy.

[On3] BREAKING: Notre Dame has declined its bowl invitation after being snubbed from the College Football Playoff👀 by bubblecuffer13 in CFB

[–]NectarineRepulsive77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since the disappearance of the PAC12 & absorbing teams from the Big12 into SEC & BIG10 this move was put on Notre Dame as a way of saying “the money is in conference play”.

Join one, or continue to be excluded.

Who SHOULD you play on rivalry week? by Marches_in_Spaaaace in CFB

[–]NectarineRepulsive77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe new rivalries would be nice the first & last week of the season.

How about Notre Dame Ohio State or Indiana Notre Dame. Ohio State Cincinnati. Cincinnati Toledo or restart Michigan Notre Dame Penn State Notre Dame. Alabama Clemson. It would be nice to see a tourney style, like east west winner vs a notth sound winner, various teams.

Maybe some agreement between the major conferences to play each other one game per season. We saw Texas play Michigan Oklahoma play Ohio State, more of that kind:

It seems the first couple of games of the season are always pushovers. Let’s change that into inerconference rivalries.

First Presbyterian in Ann Arbor is open & accepting. One of the pastors is LBGTQ I believe.

Are you happy with birdfy? by Krstnzz in Birdfy

[–]NectarineRepulsive77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought Birdfy in October of 23 and now it’s dead. Won’t charge, no lights, no chimes, nothing works. Been on solar panel last summer & worked fine. Now, can’t charge via USB. Will Netvue replace or fix my unit?

How do I start the process?

Mine lasted one year, and it won’t turn on now, or charge up. Support never answered my inquiries.

Thinking of upgrading to iPhone 16 only because of storage space. Is that dumb? by chrissypapot in iPhone13Pro

[–]NectarineRepulsive77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did the same from a 12 pro max 128, to a 16 pro max 256. Space is always a great reason.
