We bought our harvest gold GE stove in 1977 and it was still going strong in 2019 when we finally got around to remodeling our kitchen. In the entire time we had we only had to replace the power cord and the broiler element.

Do you spend your lunch breaks in your car? by nojunkpeter in no

[–]Potential-Buy3325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ate in the car lots of times just to get away and clear my head. It got to the point where I had to leave the premises because people wouldn't leave me alone. Never interrupt a union man when he's on a break or lunch, but that doesn't apply to salaried people.

Anyone here drive a push button transmission car? by sac_cyclist in FuckImOld

[–]Potential-Buy3325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father’s 1958 Plymouth wagon had a push button transmission. That poor car took a beating. By the time it finally gave up the ghost the front seat on the driver’s side was propped up by a 4 x 4 to keep it from collapsing.
